what's up guys been here from Authentech, and today we're trying a fun little
experiment fpv on an RC boat how does it work how did we get it set up let's
rewind check it out and then come back to the lake see if it works
alright so here's what we're gonna need first an RC boat I just made a cool
video on three of them under a hundred bucks you can check that out later let's
go grab my favorite here's some options this one is my favorite and the fastest
I think this will be a nice platform RC boat check next we need the fpv camera
might grow a pv cams and bats alright here's what i'm looking for one of these
little micro fpv cams small lightweight will attach the boat perfect and then
just a couple of these little micro batteries last up we need either fpv
goggles a monitor or i just posted this video fpv OTG can connect it to our
phone it's small portable and cheap and easy I like it I'm gonna be using the
our OTG at 0-2 now I read online we can waterproof this camera with some hot
glue and other options that seems a little permanent and aggressive instead
let's try something a little bit more temporary and last but not least let's
grab some tape all right let's it it might be a terrible idea but it's all
about experimenting throw a little tight rubber band on there and look at that
that bad here's one of those little bats that powers fpv cam I'll toss this in
the bag as well
this would be different if those maybe an RC car drone with a lot of rattles
but things should be gliding along the water doesn't need to be rock solid
alright would you look at that pretty ugly but the camera isn't really
wiggling much pretty waterproof in this bag plus I have this left side open so I
can swap out batteries if I need to real quick I should do a test here in the
sample make sure everything is working alright
plug in the fpv monitor TV receiver boom there we go that's not bad man let's go
out for a test ride Google studio off
all right got my little magic arm attached to the tripod is an all that
secondary phone that we're gonna use today for the fpv OTG we're using the
Eocene our OTG at 0-2 again I just made a full video on these things this one's
only like 20-ish bucks there we go it's pulling in fpv power on
the boat alright the boat is working good let's plug in the fpv camera i'm
pretty excited and intrigued to see if this little janky plastic bag actually
does anything that we got our picture zip up the bag start recording on the
fpv yeah it's working alright let's drop it in the water see
if it works here we go three two one she goes I'm so sick if it works alright
ready
eyes nice and easy taking there slow one lap around Wow not only is this boat
just a ton of fun but racing around fpv kind of opens up another world of fun
adventures pretty smooth water see the picture pretty good it could use a
little leveling now but overall it feels like you're driving in the boat
super fun that fpv OTG plug it into my phone again that thing's only about 20
bucks the little micro fpv cam that's another like 20-ish dollar super cheap
i'll give you all the links down below
be really fun to get two of these out here and doing fpv only race alright
let's bring it in see if that camera is wet at all we still got a picture
alright pulling the boat out there we go the camera looks pretty dry in there
it's a little bit of tape rubber band plastic bag that's all it takes to do
fpv RC boat alright I've got one last idea I see a
few geese in the waters let's do little geese chasing with the fvb RC boat that
could be a really fun perspective see what I see Oh baby
these geese love the boat
Wow that was sweet we got a couple taking off now we got a
little water droplet there that up real quick the negative side of these micro
fpv cams is that your resolution is really low ooh that was cool
distance is really far too I don't know if you can even see the RC boat it's way
out there he's still good reception too she survives tune in next time to let's
try some fishing with this RC bo a little janky but it worked and there we
have it guys fpv on an RC boat it was a fun experiment thanks for watching all
