On the matter of who makes what....here's an interesting find: http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_11215832/tm.htm As for the rest.....How DO you reset the update rate to 16khz? The card won't do it, I understand. ....sT

OK...time for a SimonT stupid question.... where do I get the SimonK firmware to flash with? ...sT PS: Wish you'd posted just two hours earlier.......Maytechs enroute as we speak (er, type).

I always order spares...just a habit. You should see my collection of NIB props. (Indeed, I'm about to start a Disco build because I realised I have enough parts sitting about in my spares box to build several just by purchasing the framesets.) ....sT

The 40A price is definitely better than going the ICE50 route (as cool as that would be). What are you programming them with, and what settings do I need to program? .....sT

....and when I do find a replacement, what settings do I need to program it for?

Never heard of the ipeaka's I'm running around 4.0 to 4.1kg with a complete loadout. There's also http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__2165__TURNIGY_Plush_40amp_Speed_Controller.html but I don't know much about them. Always a bit leery of HK. ICE 50's WOULD be nice....if I had...

Zeke... Hello from a Clevelander now living in the Triad. ....sT

Get the BEC. You're playing russian roulette trying to use the voltages coming out of the WKM. Besides....a Castle BEC is only about $20. Cheap insurance when you compare it to the price of decent servos. ....sT

Same here....Rob is 'Good People'! Also, ditto on the VTR125. Love mine. Its desigend specifically for the NEX-5-series....but will work with anything that size or smaller. (actually, it'll work with a camera slightly larger as well) ...sT ...sT

Well, I certainly have not gotten that far as yet. However, just for personal edification.....could you tell us what the impedance test is?

Yes, well.....as I said, I am not using the stock motors. I am using the Avrotos. I have replaced the ESC and also re-soldered the bullets on the Avrotos on the arm that is dipping (#6), but neither had any affect on my problem. I am starting to run out of ideas. ....sT

I have an issue currently on my F550. Either one or more ESC is flaky, or I have a flaky motor. I'm betting it's not the motors as they are all brand new Avroto's just received from Patrick at Aerial Media Pros. IS there a simple way to test an ESC without removing it? I hate to go fishing...

Anyone else stocking them in the CONUS?

I have the AeroXcraft GoPro gimbal. I have since moved up to the VTR125 and no longer need it. All set up with Futaba servos and a Castle BEC. Pretty much plug and play. PM me if you're interested ....sT

No...I'm afraid hours won't do it. You've started down a path that will take months and possibly even years to traverse. I started in Helis with Collective Pitch birds. You're right.....for the first 50 - 100 hours it IS lot like herding squirrels. So don't feel too bad....it's normal to feel...

Yep...I have one. Just installed it on my F550 Heavy Lift with the AeroXcraft landing gear. Ordered 11" props from Aerial Media, but half of them arrived damaged....so I can't get in the air until the replacements arrive. One thing I will say, though, is that with my NEX-5N mounted I have to...

That hurt to watch! ....sT

Red.... Thanks for the links. Will definitely check them out. However, in general this is clearly a choice of personal preference. I am wondering everyone's personal choice all seems to be the wide angle 16 over the normal aspect 30. Not specifically asking about these two particular...

Help me out here guys.... Just purchased the NEX-5N kit with the 18-55 lens (the kit with both that and the 16mm lens seems to be unobtainable at the moment ...at least at a reasonable price anyway) I was planning on getting the Sony E-mount 30mm lens to fly with....but I see that everyone...
