[​IMG]Draganfly Innovations has made another UAV helicopter. The new Draganflyer X8 follows the same general layout of the smaller X6, but they’ve added an extra arm and two more rotor blades.

WP_20151030_003.jpg WP_20151030_002.jpg So a guy brings in a Mercury Bravo 2 out-drive that supposedly had straight-cut high performance gears installed by another marine shop. He's running 500+ H.P. with a 8.2L racing engine. We're still not quite sure what exactly happened, but the guy swears he didn't hit anything with the prop. (yeah, right, whatever). I can't believe how clean the break is on that drive shaft! Well, he'$ about to $pend $5000 dollar$ (U$) to get that me$$ fixed. High performance marine parts aren't cheap!! WP_20151030_001.jpg
Video Fpv Drive By
I saw something on youtube.. Thats what I have been thinking about so many years ago as a kid.. I couldnt imagine FPV then but flying a rc plane or heli while sitting in a driving car. Watch the video. Its realy great stuff. What heli would be the best to do that guys? Speed, stability, flight time is important.

Most often RC pilots might wonder what F3N is with regards to helicopter competitions. Well F3N is just a classification given to a style of helicopter flying by the world governing body "Federation Aeronautique International". It is almost like as if F3C and 3d decided to have a child - and F3N was the result. One way of describing F3N would be structured and disciplined 3d (something I personally am not used to - lol). If I were trying to put a face to the styles i would consider F3c to be Sean Connery - 3d to be Eddie Van Halen and F3N would be Keanu Reeves from the Matrix.
