Hi Glen!
I put a post up but I messed it up...LOL....
Here are some threads to get you started with the DJI F450! Note there is a sticky on the group build that will get you started!
Keep in mind....research, research, research! It will help tremendously...

Cheers,
Mike

Scott,
I am NOT an expert on here at all but please correct me if I am wrong.
If you set up the multiwii controller to fly w/o the GoPro could that have something to do with the issue when you took off. Did you recalibrate everything.
The reason I ask is depending on where you mounted the...
Crisp,
I am not familiar with Short shaft motors but I believe you need some sort of accessory pack with it. I am not certain if it comes with one so you might want to ask on the NTM motor you are looking at.
Mike :)
I am probably going to go with the iCharger 308Duo.....I will be making the power supply for around $35 with some server power supplies. I just picked up these off of EBAY this AM...
Welcome Chris! You will find a ton of good information here....some of us, like myself, are just starting out as well and others are full blown experts!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you to Scott!
Hobby King made things right today. They offered to either refund my money as a store credit or arrange to get another Accucell 6 to me. I elected to go the store credit route. They did not want the Accucell back for some reason.
I am now...
Thanks Pete!
I am looking more long term now and have been reading tons. What originally turned me off to the "Bigger" chargers was the price of the associated power supply that would be needed to run them. After looking around a bit more I have spent the better part of the day looking into...
Great tips here guys! Reckless I have a small Nano QX that would fit the bill for many of the new people to MR flying. I fly it a ton in the house to make certain that my skills and maneuvers are up to snuff before taking out a bigger bird.
I use the Active Thread button every time I get on the site to catch up on new posts and such. I like the dropdown that allows to search via 1 day, 2 days, 3 days...etc. It was missing for me yesterday and this morning but it seems to be up and running again!!! Thanks Bart!
I also surf the...
EDIT:
I have found the answer....thanks....I have elected to go with another charger as it seems as though while the ACCUCELL 6 would suffice for the time being, I am looking at long term use. I am currently leaning on getting an icharger 308b.
Getting an appreciation for all the EE stuff...
Way to go Scott!!!! Now you know about the Acro/stable switch and I bet that will not happen again anytime soon! From the picture, did your cross members on the gear come off?
"THAT'S IT!!!!"....in my best Charlie Brown Voice from the Charlie Brown Christmas!!!
tstrike that is an excellent idea! Need to figure out just what the dimensions are but I would think that might be a solution!
Yes...those were the ones I had seen. I am not certain just how much they would help or not...I do know that they would add a bit of weight but not much!
