Hi. I'm new to the site. One of my main hobbies is videography. I started watching some of the videos on youtube that utilize quad copters and gopro cameras, and eventually found the Flighttest videos. I would love to get into this hobby!
So far, I'm most impressed by the tricopter being used on the show. It seems to give incredibly smooth soaring-type videos. My goal is to set up a tricopter for FPV using a gopro3 and a fatshark headset.
So right now, I have several questions on how to get started. I'd like to start by getting some recommendations on a decent radio with lots of channels (so I won't have to keep upgrading) and a recommendation on a cheap flight sim (that will work with my radio) that has a tricopter model to fly. Also, is the tricopter a good heli to learn on (without my camera attached, of course )? Any other recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
