I have a DJI F550 knock-off and it weights in at about 3.5-4lbs fully loaded. I was using 750Kv 250W Turnigy NTM motors from Hobbyking and I have recently replaced those with much faster 1350Kv 310W Turnigy NTM motors also from Hobbyking and here's what I've discovered. I'm spinning the exact...

Looking for a Go Pro Hero 2 or better for the right price. Thanks!

Check this out, what do you think? 4 channel diversity, what could you do with that? Sure would make things pretty compact unless you have big antennas to carry around. I bet you could hook the signal output from this diversity controller into your current 2 channel diversity controller and...

Hey everyone, I've had about 14 FPV flights under my belt so far and I'm getting better at flying but the flight characteristics part I'm still learning and trying to understand; I come from airplanes and helis. My DJI hexacopter is a hobbyking knock off version by the way if that matters. Right...
