I'll give those things a try. Thanks
Somebody said if you update with firmware above a certain number it bricks the controller completely, I take it that as I am getting flashing lights when plugged into the computer, that it is not bricked?
Board Version 1 - Firmware 2.3b4
When plugged into the GUI I get flashing lights but it is jittery and will not "lock" when I unplug it and try plugging in flight battery, I get nothing it just looks dead!
Any help would be much appreciated.
Got my Landing Gear built and fitted, no gimbal as yet but hope to start filming with the fixed camera mount very soon. Great quality products and can't wait to get going, will post my first video providing quality is OK.
Cheers

I am building a Quad at the minute but as yet don't have a FC. Can't stretch to a Naza so looking at MultiWii but I cannot find for want of a better word "an idiots guide" going through step by step how to ho about it, maybe ther isn't one! Basically I want to buy the board configure it and fly...
Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question but I assume after everything is set up with a Quad or Hex that it is then OK to programme in Expo and Dual Rates.

Placed an order for a Hexcopter 10 days ago, it arrived today direct, no extras. I have to say that they were great to deal with, I asked for different motors in the kit and they accommodated me no problem. Can't recommend them highly enough.
Kinda thought that might be the answer, my only thoughts were to get motors with a bit more oomph to lift a camera easliy. As a stock kit what will the F450 lift weight wise?

I have been looking on Ebay and there would appear to be a wide array of frames for sale as well as motors and speed controllers all at reasonable prices. So for instance is it worth getting the DJI motors and ESCs or are the ebay ones just as good. Also what appears to be DJI frame clones...
IrisAerial,
Many thanks for the offer, with the price in dollars I assume that you are in th US? Not sure if I would have to pay any taxes if you sent it over or what it would cost but I will look into it. What Xaircraft model is it so I can investigate and do you have any pics? Other that...
Thanks for the reply Ross, wasn't sure if this page was the one to use for asking for advice so I have posted on the general page. Anyway, my budget is not great (in fact just now it doesn't exist but soon I hope) but I was looking at something along the lines of the DJI F450 Quad which is...
I would have tagged on to the other recent thread on a first purchase but that is way over budget. Having heard some horror stories on reliability and programming difficulties with some products, I don't know what's what! I'm looking at something like a DJI F450 or similar, any advice out there...
Hi Everyone,
From the title you will see that I have just joined the forum. I look forward to buying my first Quadcopter but need loads of advice and information first before I part with my hard earned cash. I am a member of other forums and expect this one to be no different, a great bunch of...
