Not too sure if this is the right section, but I just need a quick reply to see if anyone has used Radioc, a uk based site. Looking at the Tarot 650 they have. Thanks.

Well, no sooner had I posted this thread, I got notification to say that it has been sold. Oh well, off to buy some parts :star: WooHoo

I currently have a 2008 Epiphone DoT in Ebony on eBay item number 151285369303 . Is there anyone on the forum that would like to swap or PX or cash either way (within reason)? I am looking for something that will start me off in the aerial photography direction. Ideally I am looking for...

Thanks for the replies. I was thinking more of used/second hand until I am competent enough to get something a bit more advanced once I know what I am doing. Looking to spend max £150 on a unit. I have looked at Spektrum and Futaba. To be honest, I don't have a Scooby Doo what to look for, so...

Looking for a transmitter that I can use as I progress and gain experience. What should I be looking for and how much? Any recommendations? I'm starting with a basic SK450 quad but would eventually want to work my way to an Oct. Am I correct that they can be hooked up to a laptop and used in...

Wow, talk about being inspired. I would love to give up my day job, reduce my hours AND get paid for something I enjoy doing. I thought I was doing that back in 2001 when I left the ambulance service to be a HGV driver. (Dont ask me why, I still dont know why I did it). As mentioned in a...

How did you start off in professional aerial photography/video? Was it a hobby that progressed into a new career path or did you have a photography grounding and wanted a new aspect? Did you start off with a basic quad or did you go all out and buy the best? It is something I would love to do...

Simple question. Do you think it should be a legal requirement for ALL multirotor/UAV users to be registered and licensed in some form? Do you think there should be some form of regulation? I ask because even though I have only been browsing for a few weeks, there seems to be various...

Sounds a good idea Lec. Just needs me one of those flying contraption things and I'll be there. @Gringers Chester is nice. Would look cool with some FPV shots along the Dee Sent from my TegraNote-P1640 using Tapatalk

Besides the obvious, is there a difference in flying a multirotor with 3, 4 or 6 rotors? Any difference in handling? Which is easier to fly? Thanks

I see the DJI Vision plus has a 15km fly zone and a 25 min fly time with a return to home feature. I would struggle to see 1km never mind 15km. Layman's terms of the law is a good idea. Until reading this thread, I wasn't aware of some of the rules/regulations relating to the safe use of a...

Thanks for clearing that up. You learn something new every day. On a separate note, I have just seen your showcase on your site. Superb.

Just looking at the advice given on the CAA link "An unmanned aircraft must never be flown beyond the normal unaided ‘line of sight’ of the person operating it. This is generally measured as 500m horizontally or 400ft vertically." Does this include if the user is using FPV? Technically...

I bought my first (and probably my last) copy of RCM&E magazine and in it was a letter to the editor. It was in relation to an editorial back in the March edition which I can only assume that the editor had painted quadcopters in a grey light. The points I picked up in the readers letter was...

Thanks Carapau. I have an Epiphone guitar that I am hoping is going to part fund my project. Looking at what I want to achieve , I think I would need a Led Paul to fund it. Andy Sent from my TegraNote-P1640 using Tapatalk
