How long until we a Baba Yaga drone equipped with a AA missile?
There are many attempts, one day someone will succeed
It was a good try
Gotta pull lead pursuit, Richtofen.
Simplest method: establish a zero bearing rate
damn that couldve been a real possibility
Next time fly in the same direction with it until you get close.
Deflection, saw a film about a Spitfire pilot knowing where to aim on the turn.
If they ever pull this off, r/CombatFootage will go apeshit
We have seen couple of attempts already and all failed by being pushed away by winds coming from helicopter, haven’t seen one coming from top angle of attack so far
Honestly your best bet is to try on an MI-24 or MI-8
Gotta lead your target until the object on screen is in a static place
That would have been legendary
Should have turned right WAY sooner to compensate for oncoming speed of the helo. Next time…
They’re out here UCAVing helos now. This war gets more and more like Battlefield 4 every day.
dude that makes that intercept is never paying for a drink in any bar in ukraine ever again.
I like their optimism.
20 meters away from infinite internet fame
The little quad-copter probably thinks that’s its Mom or something.
Dream big, little drone, dream big.
I-think-I-can, I-think-I-can
What kind of damage would those claymore type FPV’s do to a helicopter? I imagine that type would be more effective than trying to get a direct hit?
Should’ve aimed for the way in front of the helicopter instead of going directly at it in the beginning.
I don’t know if this would be true or not but wouldn’t the drone be able to get close then basically have no control because of the rotor wash from the heli?
The FPV drone operator clearly hasn’t payed warthunder.
My battlebit goals are happening in real life and it’s insane
Didn’t the back wash of air basically prevent them from being able to get close enough?
Soon you’ll have automated drones waiting as air defense, popping up at just the right moment. Think how cheap and effective it could be against helos, anyway.
Hot aspect man, hot aspect. You went cold…
There’s been a number of these close calls, including one with a Russian Su-25
It’s only a matter of time hopefully 😊
this might belong more in noncredible defense, but would you be able to make an explosive that detonates when it colides with the rotors? i imagine the rotors are creating a strong downwards suction so if you can get the drone above it then it would get sucked into the blades causing it to detonate
I was just thinking about how this would work. Wouldn’t the air being put out by the rotors just blow the drone away? Forgive for the stupid question
need more speed. or a rocket. ok internet. get to work. how to get a hit on a helicopter flying at that speed with a FPV?
That’s a walk in touchdown, the safety has to take a better angle on the ball carrier.
It’s for sure going to happen sooner or later at this point. There’s gotta be some drone pilots that realize intercepting better by now with all this practice. One of these days tho, one of these sides is gonna succeed in connecting with a helicopter I bet. Literally just seems to be only a matter of time now
He just had the angle wrong, they’ll do it.
Wait until we get the vid of the face of the pilot, as the FPV flies thru his window, just like they are doing on ground targets.

Damn, bad angle. Next time you will smoke them
