B25 over Shropshire
Two FPV flights in the FMS B25 on the same day. These were just leisurely sight-seeing cruises on a beautiful day.
Sounds are actually B25 recordings.

A rare thing in a Robobiggles video - the whole recording from switch on to switch off. It was such a smooth flight in lovely scenery that I offer the whole flight. Because I can.
Spitfire wingman
Переглядів 7992 місяці тому
Went out to play with the Model Squadron last week - and I got chance to try and fly wingman to Steve Holland and his 1/4 scale Spitfire. We just did figure 8s - and it was pretty hard to stay with him - his model was crawling along while mine was on steroids keeping up. Much fun was had.

Restored Spitfire MkVb
Переглядів 8994 місяці тому
After 5 years waiting for restoration, finally the Avios Tropical Spitfire MkVb is back in the air. I've been waiting a long time for this! She lost the nose after throwing a prop blade in flight, back in 2019. Restored to her former looks, and converted to digital DJI in the process. I also replaced the old Henge pan servo with a butter smooth Check Six servo from Motionsic - I normally choose...
CMFC orientation flight

Visited a different local club today, as an alternate local flying venue. I was lucky enough to be able to do an orientation flight to find my way around and familiarise myself with landmarks.
Me262 FPV lens focus test flight
Переглядів 5204 місяці тому
Test flight to evaluate a slightly adjusted focal length on the FPV camera lens. Slightly softening the outside world view, slightly improving focus on the cockpit interior. I was happy with the compromise. Sadly not so pleased with the aircraft performance. Since adding the FPV gear it has had 3 flights. First one failed to gain adequate take off speed and tip stalled almost the second it was ...
Adjusting focus in the cockpit
Переглядів 9114 місяці тому
If you want to get your scale FPV cockpit a little better focussed there are options. However the compromise for better focus on the cockpit is softer focus outside. Decide what balance works for you. In the 3 models shown in making this video I have a Caddx DJI air unit with the Caddx camera rather than the original DJI camera (which has a fixed lens). The recordings are 1080p from the air uni...
Fitting the ARMS collimating reflector gunsight into foam
Переглядів 1 тис.4 місяці тому
The instructions with the ARMS are very clear and easy to follow, with 2 approaches - one way is fitting it inside the cockpit aft of the panel, the other is fitting it into the foam forward of the panel. The approach you use will depend how far away you need to mount the ARMS from your camera lens. I have made this install video to support those users who need to fit into the foam. Although th...
Parkzone Mosquitos
Переглядів 1,3 тис.10 місяців тому
Early attempts at a Mosquito formation - with several Spitfires & a Hurricane escort. Mixed from 2 flights at the Model Squadron reunion in September. The Mosquito has a DJI air unit on a pan-only servo (no room for a tilt due to battery location right below the pan servo). I've been flying this model FPV for 7 years now and she is still a favourite. By sheer coincidence the video is EXACTLY th...
B17s - The Final Countdown
Переглядів 1,2 тис.10 місяців тому
Themed on the movie The Final Countdown. Three B17s take off in 2023, and travel back in time 80 years to 1943 - to fly in a time when the world was black & white. Two green B17f FPV models and a silver B17g LOS model. One of the FPV cockpits is fitted with DJI Air Unit, the other with a Mobius 1 analogue. These were shot at the Model Squadron reunion last month, and were among our earlier atte...
Stuka Pilot - Black Friday
Переглядів 10 тис.10 місяців тому
The story of Black Friday, 16th August 1940. Told from the perspective of the dive bomber crews of Stuka Geschwader 2, who raided RAF Tangmere and RDF station Ventnor at around 1300 hrs. The story is told by The Battle of Britain Model Squadron, using radio control models & FPV technology. The video is 15 minutes long including credits (So don't expect the normal 3 minute UA-cam video). Apart f...
Formation Practice with 2 FPV B17s
Переглядів 2,6 тис.10 місяців тому
B17 formation practice at the September Model Squadron reunion. By the time we finished it was looking a bit more like formation flying rather than just tail chasing. 2 Hobbyking B17s with FPV cameras fitted. One DJI, the other Mobius 1 analogue. #robobiggles #fpv #cockpitvideo #dji #headtracking #mobius #b17 #hobbyking #formation #flyingfortress #rc

What camera did you use.
Great video!
Awesome!

So beautiful ~
How bloody good was this. Enjoyed this immensely. Tally ho.
🎉

Never seen this sort of recreation before. Loved the way it spliced footage from the film with the model flying. Obviously a lot of work went into producing it. Well done! Great flying!
Do you want to be a hero?
I just got into FPV with head tracking on a F-22 and want something WW2-era next, this cockpit setup is incredible! I've been considering a P-38 as my next plane. Did the cockpit come that detailed from FMS?
No it didnt Luke, I have added a fair few custom details. Having said that the bulk of this cockpit did indeed come with it. The sight, panel and side walls were all included. Best detailed cockpit I ever saw out of the box. It was all painted green with dodgy fantasy dials, but with a bit of paint and proper dials stuck on, it wouldn't be too far off what you see here.
❤this is unbelievable well done guys
Amazing. You do FPV warbirds like no other. I love the realism and detail.
FPV drones in their first iteration as RC model aeroplanes. Now used as serious war weapons by the Ukrainian army.
Nice trip! How far does the radio reach?
Awesome view in the cockpit!
Nose art not allowed on RAF planes during the war.
You may be right Bernie, but what was allowed, and what actually happened, are two completely different things. I could show you literally dozens of photos of RAF fighters with nose art, including the Hurricane flown by Douglas Bader as early as the Battle of Britain (Hitler getting his arse kicked), scantily clad women, dragons, fighting bulls, Donald Duck, shamrocks and dozens of desert airforce fighters with shark mouths painted on the nose. And in the case of RAF bomber command - well take your pick they were littered with nose art.
great stuff! still working on mine Robo. won't have all that detail but will have bomb and tank drop!
What is there to say, amazing, What a tremendous effort involved here, thanks for the sharing
That cockpit looks fantastic!
Excellent canopy detail as always sir!
Great flying and great scale details!
Beautiful flight!
I say chaps jolly good show
Bumps a daisy! Undercarriage lever a bit stiff was it Sir?
WHAT WAS THAT WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT, IT PASSED BY LIKE WE WERE SANDING STILL
Ya'll are having way too much fun! 🙂
If I were a Billionaire, I would buy the following to fly around to my heart's content: 1. P-51D Mustang 2. Ju87 Stuka 3. F4U Corsair 4. PT-17 Stearman That would be my Dream Air Force.
Awesome event!!! One more thing What's the Stuka planes brand? I've been looking for a Foam one for a long time and haven't found one yet.
It's discontinued I'm afraid - it is the FMS 1.4m span. You may find a used one - all 3 of ours were bought used.
I have everything to get this dream to come true, but now fpv bureacracy in Europe is mindblowing.
From how many planes getting up it gets nearly impossible, to keep your own one in sight ?
This really speaks "Battle of Britain"
An amazing video, exactly what I always dreamed about doing as a very small boy 👍🙂I always wondered why we don't see a lot more onboard and FPV YT videos of Large Scale IC Engined Warbirds when they are flying in formation. Cheers Paul
Awesome flight!!!
Almost looks like the real deal. Awesome job.
Cool modes but wrong Messerschmitt for the time period
Well done! Excellent work!
RoboBiggles this is a spectacular project! Thanks for sharing it with us! Can you give us a rundown of your Fpv kit? You’ve got great images ….
