FPVing a Gas Powered RC L-39

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :

It's Top Gun meets Racing Drones!  Gas turbine radio control jets are the kings of the RC aircraft world; powered by miniature jet engines, they can cost many thousands of dollars and can achieve speeds of hundreds of km/mi. per hour.  First person view (FPV) racing drones provide a great way to see these RC beasts in action, but keeping up with them and "in frame" is notoriously difficult.  That's what makes this video by top AirVuz contributor and FPV pilot nikofilmz so impressive; the RC L-39 turbine looks VERY real, indeed.

BADGES THIS VIDEO HAS EARNED:

The L-39 has always been one of my favorite cold war jet trainers. It's actually one of the few military grade jets available for purchase by civilians for the small price of $250,000. Another fun RC turbine sesh with Joshua Bybee and Jesse Gatewood. Once again Carter Hansen (@carterfilmz) crushing it with the high speed chase shots. Hope to have a special speed demon drone built for the next one so we have more room for creativity and less reliance on flaps, these jets are FAST🤘 Pilots: @carterfilmz, @nikofilmz Music: Blackmill - Embrace
