Pilotman, I was answering a question about the landing legs. The GoPro is just stuck to the underside, I've not got the gimbal. Peter

Lectricman, I'm using 3S 5000's on my F550 and got 8 mins with Gemfan 9" in Torxpower 2216 900 motors. I'm putting a GoPro on and some other "stuff" so I expect this to come down a bit. Peter

Hi Dave, Preston Heli Club meet in the sports hall at Kirkham Carr Hill School. I'm still trying to convince them about going over to "THE DARK SIDE". It's a really friendly club, and they helped a lot when I was learning to hover helis but they must have got fed up with bits or carbon flying...

Hi Peter, which part of Preston are you at, where do you fly? You're welcome to come down to Preston Heli Club. We fly at Kirkham Carr Hill School on Thursday nights. I'm the only one on quads as they got fed up with me crashing helis (joking) If you want to come down, drop me a pm and I'll...

Abonto, I just have it stuck to the underside of the main body at the moment 'til I get used to flying it. Peter

Jake, whenever I'm on here, you're on to, when I'm on FPVHub, you're there, when I'm on FindaMan.com, ........:nevreness: Sorry Lectricman, we (Jake) seems to have taken over this thread, please feel free to join in !! Peter

Hi Lectricman, I went down the same route, got fed up of crashing/repairing/crashing etc. etc. I've also got the F550 and getting better at keeping aloft. That wasn't your car I saw in Wigan was it, the one with the bumper sticker "No Pies Are Kept In This Car Overnight!!!!! You have to come...

Wbal57, I have the same landing legs on my 550 with a GoPro2 stuck underneath and it's OK. Peter

"Is it normal to wear white pants? probably not". :) I'm starting a new trend !!! The trousers are actually black, it's the camera that making them grey. I've sent the camera back and will post the result. Peter

Yeah Chris, he's also on FPVHub. I'm not the only one then :upset: Peter

Thanks 02 deuce, my camera doesn't have OSD and I can't find a manual for it anywhere. It seems it's only Firstpersonview that are selling it. I've returned it to them so we'll see what happens. Peter

Thanks for the replies. I've tried cycling through the channels on the Fatshark Attitude goggles but I can only get picture on one channel, which is rock solid. Just that the colours are gone. Peter

I'm just delving into the world of FPV and bought this camera http://www.firstpersonview.co.uk/cameras/mini-color-camerasony-13exview-had-ccd8545tm-ccd but the colours, especially red seem to be washed out. I know it's only a small camera but is this a "normal" ? I've upload three pictures...

Hi Phil, have you any experience in flying RC? I ask because some of the comments/questions you asked perhaps show that you haven't. If you have, I apologise but if you haven't you are going down the road that lots of people have, including me, in that you think it's just a case of unpacking...

From the long shadows and the sun being to the left of the copter, could it be the dreaded "light catching the Naza" ???? Peter

Really sorry to hear about this Dave, I enjoyed the recent meeting at your place. I suppose we always think something like this will not happen to us, until it does. You've helped lots of people on here, so now it's our turn. Any help, just shout... and keep your pecker up (that's not what it...

That wad of cash must have been burning a hole in your pocket Pete if you couldn't wait for just one day. Hope the local hobby shop can give you all the advice you might (will) need but it won't be as good I don't think as that you would have got from Geoff. Peter (P)

If you're in the UK Chris, give Geoff a ring at www.quadcopters.co.uk, he'll give you some good advice. Whereabouts are you? Peter

sdow, can't really see a clear view of your props on your Youtube vid but they appear to be all counter clockwise....???

sdow, it might help if you go through all the steps you went through on building and set up. Did you use the Assistant?
