New FPV Adventure

Post by Jib »

So I recently went on vacation where we drove, and before we went I hastily put in a new receiver, slip ring, and a 4 camera FPV system into my Taigen Late Tiger I tank.

Instead of a TBS Ultra Tiny camera for the drivers vision block, I dremeled out a hole just big enough for a micro (the larger of the 3 sizes I use) FPV camera and stuck that in directly behind the slit of the vision block.

I also took my Abrams with me as well.

The terrain was kind of rough, and there were some acrobatics, among other mishaps.

And atop all that, Jib, you taught me a word I'd never before seen nor heard, a word describing a practice with which I have long been familiar: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greeble

Haha, yeah I picked that term up from putting together some cosplay stuff. An odd word, but it’s a good catch all for that sort of stuff.
