Click Here To Subscribe! ► - Ever want to Run an Excavator - but will never do it in Full Scale? Maybe you ran HD equipment - but are now retired? Let me put you in the seat of my Excavator - FPV Style! First Person View (FPV) is becoming very popular for Aircraft - but what about on the Ground? In this video, I have already outfitted my RC Excavator / RC4WD Earth Digger 4200XL - with an FPV System. The system consists of Fat Shark "Attitude" googles, an Immersion RC 5.8ghz Transmitter, and a GoPro Hero 3 Black edition camera.
These are powered with a set of Gensace Lipo Batteries.
OK - I know lots of folks ask me questions about these rigs - and where I get them - so please see the info below for all of your questions Answers! For now, I have to get outside for more diggin'!
Heads UP: Decals seen in video are NOT iNCLUDED with the RC's.. they are mine..
