Wow DennyR, very nice... Got any new videos? I'd love to see some from your heli :) I just got done building my new Y6 MR, can't wait to go fly..gotta wait on a few more parts from China. If you have any new videos, post them up!

I finally finished my Y6 build out. Rusty was awesome and his product was top quality. I'm glad everyone introduced me to him. I put a YouTube video up of my build. Thanks!!!

And that's exactly how it should fly, excellent! I'm glad I was able to help and work through it. I learned some things too... :D

That's funny because I've been looking for a micro-MR. I want one small enough I can fly around the house but big enough to carry a micro camera and micro FPV equipment. What micro-MR are you flying? Would you recommend it?

You're probably right and the T-motors as well as the props are extremely expensive but as someone said, "We don't build them to crash, we build them to fly..." :) The problem with Graupner props is that they are plastic and they break easy when they hit something and wooden props are the same...

Prop selection is as important as motor selection and you can use bigger props with motors that can handle them but you don't want to overload your motors. If you want quieter you're really going to have to work for it. It starts with the motors and you're going to have to shell out some money...

The surface area is towards the end of the prop blades which leaves very little material connecting the prop to the prop hub which is where they tend to break. I just bought some carbon fiber 11x5 Graupner clones so I'm looking forward to those coming in. Just started my Y6 build up today and I...

The new DJI props are 10x3.8 pitch and since they are super low pitch you can use them with your higher speed motor. Those rules applied to the old DJI props that were pure garbage and shouldn't be used anyway. You'll get a smoother flight and longer flight times with the 10x3.8. I've only heard...

Yes sir, if that Naza is vibrating is can't really tell what is going on very well and in manual mode it lets you figure it out so that makes sense. Post some videos soon, glad I could help!

Yeah they are, probably direct rip-offs much like the Graupner clones on RCtimer that are made of carbon fiber. I just want something that works and works well and NOT a slower flyer prop...ugh.

Hey, what do you think of these bad boys? http://www.amazon.com/Waltzmart-Carbon-Propeller-QuadRoter-Copter/dp/B009NP4K2W/ref=sr_1_2?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1365789435&sr=1-2&keywords=carbon+fiber+propeller+12

I'm running Turnigy NTM 750Kv 265W 18A max motors so yours will spin bigger props than mine. I'll eventually upgrade them but I'm in no rush, I haven't had one fail yet and I've flown for over 60+ videos and 15 hours of logged flight time now.

That motor could easily be the problem. Make sure when you spin it that it is not energized, i.e. the battery is disconnected. I had a similar problem occur and I replaced the motor and it was night and day different, it was like I picked up 25% more power. Removing the GPS wouldn't do...

Those look like Graupner clones to me and they're in carbon fiber which means they're probably super strong and super light. I don't see that style in 12" props so maybe I'll go with the 11x5 to start out with and go from there. Those 11x5 props you put the link up to look really nice and I'm...

Can you put a link up of the exact ones you use on RCTimer? I keep hearing they are hit and miss on that website so I'm wondering which version you are using. Good info though, thanks!

It's got to be a defective unit then, once you balance the props try it out again and see what happens. GPS and attitude mode are different and rely on the internal barometer I suspect that is defective in your unit.

Yeah, everything looks right but I'd check my balance on my props and my motors. With the props off you can spin the motors and watch from directly above to see if there's any noticeable wobble. Unless your props or motors are causing serious vibrations I'd say it's a faulty Naza controller. The...

The ESC have to be individually calibrated using whatever is says in their manual. If they are stock ESCs they probably come calibrated. I'd say you have a defective unit and you need to return your FC to have it repaired. I've never seen that before but I'd be really curious to see your setup...

So explain to me what we are seeing in that video. Is it doing that by itself? If so and you have applied the black electrical tape to both sides then you may have a defective unit. It's awfully shaky too and I'm wondering if it's suffering from vibrations. If the FC is vibrating it will have a...

That's fine with me, I'm more of a pilot than an AP guy and I really just strap a camera to my Multi's so I can watch them later over and over again. I really don't care about wobbles and all that but I do put a little effort into trying to reduce them. I'll eventually upgrade the motors but...
