Re: Taylor Field Armor Association field build
YEEES IT IS!!!
It takes tank battles to a new level. I first saw some videos on Youtube of people in Germany battling in arenas with FPV (First Person Veiw) and I've been dying to try it ever since. It's a lot of fun even in the dark. In the daylight you can even see your BBs trajectory and sometimes the impact. I planned to snap some pics of my Tiger I with the FPV gear on but I stripped the plastic gears and have begun tearing it down for paint and a refit.

Here are some photos of aircraft I have with FPV systems installed. The video googles are on the bed in some of the pics.

Re: Taylor Field Armor Association field build
Most of the time it's better to buy your FPV set up by the peice but you can get package deals and there are a great number of places to atain gear as well. The vast majority of these are illeagal to use without a HAM radio liscense so check you rlocal laws. The best prices I have found are from Hobby King. http://www.hobbycity.com/hobbycity/stor ... entCat=172" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
there are many other great places to get gear and accesories and you can use either a monitor or googles. The googles can be very cost prohibitive. Mine I scored for $50 on Ebay but I had to hack them. Most start around $250. You also need a Tx/Rx, a camera, and a suitable power source. Here are some other places for gear.
