How To Turn Your Toy Helicopter Into A Spy

How To Turn Your Toy Helicopter Into A Spy

Turn a regular cheap RC/Helli in a super spying machine! Have the best toy that is known to man!


Step 1:

Equipment

I picked up a twenty dollar, RC Air Hogg, off the internet and decided to pimp it to be a spy chopper and a RC. I got a twenty dollar used mini spy camera on line and some tape. I started to stick it to the nose of the chopper and I made sure the camera was light weight for the chopper to fly.

Step 2:

Assemble The Pieces

After carefully sticking it to the nose, I bent the antenna forward, so that it won’t hit the main rudder. Now I tested, if it would lift it up.

Using some tape, sticky side down, I added to the helicopter’s belly, this giving it thief abilities, which you will see further on in the video. Using the backside tape you can also borrow some money from your friends when they’re asleep.

And all of this controlled from your monitor or you can even broadcast on your cell phone.

    It'd be almost impossible to do that. For one the control is not precise. The little helicopter looks cool but it's only 2 channels and the range is really short. Maybe if you took a trip to the hobby store and got a blade CX, this would be a good idea.

    where did you get this camera? i have a helicopter like yours and a syma 603, not 1 of them can lift my aluminum housed wireless cctv and its battery, i need a camera like yours!

    This is fake, you need a hobby quality RC Helicopter to make this work right. If money isn't a problem I'd go for the Align Trex 450 + Spektrum DX7 and get the Pilot system from Hobby-Lobby. It'll cost about $2,000 but you'll be able to fly outside (not indoors) just about anywhere. There are tons of other options, like the Honey Bee Kings and Blade CP's out there and little spy cams. It could cost as little as $200 to make a true spy heli.

    You are so retarded. The Havoc Heli is Infrared (IR) NOT Radio Control. He is using the controller from the Airhogs aircraft. So fake and lame, he is not even being honest. This is why the worlds oil is so expensive because we have too many bullshi**ers like this in the world that lead you to believe INCORRECT information.

    My advice is to you: Remove this video because gives the public the WRONG advice on how to build DIY Helicams. Its so obviously fake and silly and you are just going to keep getting offensive comments. The world is not as dumb as you.

    This is not an IR copter. It is RF. I have one. Did you not see the antenna on the control? You may have an IR version, but this one is obviously RF.

    The heli doesnt have control beyond line of sight. It is an infra-red controled tou, you have to point the controller at the toy inorder for it to fly.
