You'll find that 16 will work better for you. And, as Electro mentioned, the 16 chop rate will be a bit less noisy as well. ....sT

I use Ruby Fluid. More liquid than paste, it causes the solder to flow thinly and evenly which makes for a better connection and also reduces the amount of solder you need to use. It cleans up easier and cleaner than a paste. A wipe with a wet paper towel cleans it up without leaving any...

tstrike, for the most part is correct. Minus the cynicism (which I more or less share, btw) when they 'Table' a bill...it is still a pending bill or other piece of legislation...they have just decided to place it on hold and come back to it at a later date. Now....that doesn't mean they HAVE...

:encouragement: ESPECIALLY when, for certain applications, there are no other even nearly equal alternatives. In view of the situation even a year ago when one could not find Graupners hardly anywhere on the planet....it would seem reasonable to wonder if props might not be the biggest...

Too late....it's already a fact. ...sT

Very impressive!!! Where do I sign up for one?? (never mind....finally found it) By the way....a few pages back, you asked what lens most use on NEX-5's. I and a number of others I know use the Sigma 19mm f/2.8 prime. ....sT

I agree. But, that said......I admit that I am an American who expects companies be held responsible, either by themselves or by government interdiction, for their bad and potentially dangerous decisions instead of skulking about in the shadows whilst they apathetically pump out more faulty...

+1 DJI has already lost all of my business. One HFP+GPS board set on the bench and another on order as we speak. HF falls all over themselves trying to help out whenever I talk to them. ....sT

Well...that's just it, isn't it? DJI knows they are more or less immune from any real damages arising from outside of China over all of their negligent and sub-standard products. So they just keep churning the crap out without any real concern as to the lost investment of their users (and/or...

I joined AMA....begrudgingly....because the local club I belong to requires it. The insurance looks good on paper, but I suspect that actually collecting on it will be next to impossible should the need ever arise. Claims that AMA is the best representation available in government may be true...

F550 with arm extensions and Avrotos. AeroXcraft landing gear, AeroXcraft VTR125 NEX-5N gimbal. (no NEX in the gimbal during this particular flight. What you see is a dummy weight for proper balance) ....sT

Props are only the beginning of their problems. Let us not forget about their lack of any real form of Customer Support. Ducking questions and then pawning them off on a less than adequate dealer network is not the mark of a reputable company. ...sT

I am now noticing that the GPS Hold function is not as rock solid as it has been in the past. Although I am not showing any red flashing, I am still get some drifting. It's not bad....just enough to annoy. It may be bad angles on the satellites, but this has gone on for several days now and...

Welcome from the Winston/Greensboro area. ....sT

Im afraid I do not. Mine are all standard flash with the usual programming. I looked into what was necessary to flash them myself and decided that I didn't want to get into all that as it would almost decidedly result in at least one destroyed ESC before I figured it all out. .....sT

Yes...but you won't double your flight time, however. You'll get roughly 1.6 to 1.7 the single-pack flight. ....sT

Also about 20 flights or so on 5.20....no troubles on my f550 converted to Heavy Lift. 5.18 had frequent momentary motor cutouts which, while they did not ultimately cause damage, made me just ground the bird compleatly until they were addressed. Don't know what they were all about...but it...

I'm using Maytech's with great success. I'd buy more in a heartbeat ...in fact, I am about to. Have reason to believe that the HK Blue Series are the same with different shrink and labelling (and a MUCH lower price tag)....but I have not tried them myself. YMMV. ....sT

Not familiar with the 10CHG......removable RF module? ...sT

You have answered your own question. You're right....it would do roughly the same amount of damage (perhaps slightly more...birds are softer than MRs) than a large bird. BUT....a large bird can do A LOT of damage if it hits in just the right spot. A simple collision would be relatively...
