    Working around helicopters most of my life caused me to like them, which caused me to learn more about them, learning more about them I discovered RC helicopters, learning about RC helicopters led me to discover FPV, discovering FPV caused me to watch a lot of FPV videos on YouTube. Watching a lot of FPV videos on YouTube caused me to discover Dub Step music. This is mostly due to FPV being prevalent in European countries.

    So, watching a helicopter dump water from a bucket onto a fire during a hot summer day near a small town called Rogue River many years ago has caused me later in life to spend time and money pursuing a very enjoyable hobby playing with RC aircraft, develop a new taste in music, and form a desire to travel throughout some countries that I never thought I would ever want to visit until I saw some of the landscape via FPV.

    This has been one of my all time favorite FPV videos, and sealed the deal for becoming a die hard RC enthusiast, then shortly after I realized that a lot of videos were using the same sound track.

    Looking in the tractor window at 1:55 is insane, this is a NON stabilized 450 helicopter, it's 100% up to the pilot to hold this thing steady!

    Zephyr 2 flying wing FPV (cool shot of the brushless around 21 seconds, and timed lip sync at 31 seconds)

    This guy used gyros to stabilize his plane, one of the most unique fpv viewing shoots I have seen from a stabilization perspective, no bouncing, just locked in like it is flying on rails......

    If nothing else, don't miss this. Watch for the flyover scene at 1:10, craaaaaazzzzzzzyyy!!!!!! Holy crap that was close, only one change to get it right (what people will do to make a GoPro commercial).
