Ok let's go from the top because I know it's a lot of information and of course it's possible I'm not understanding you clearly. This is going to be like the "bone" song, the foot bones connected to the, leg bone, the leg bones connected to the knee bone lol.... Ok so the DJI F550 has a built...

It would have to be smaller and support the same resolution or better of the camera itself. That thing is 156g or .35lbs so that would cut your flight times by a minute and a half at least, add the camera on there too and you'll probably lose 3-4 minutes. Hmm....maybe an bigger Hexa or Octo...

Thanks for the info! That was my first thought when I saw the Tarot is the plastic clips will give out and if that happened in flight then it's game over. :(

I saw no their website that the custom build these for each customer so I would think so but not sure.

If you get one make sure you do a review and post some video here!!! Please, please, please...The Lux setup is sick looking and if you scroll down they have some videos of the camera in action. I'm hoping there's a way to record to SD card versus beaming it to me and recording which may not be...

Hey, check this website out...never seen this one before. http://www.flytron.com/camera-transmitter-shutter/218-fm-36x-mini-zoom-camera-with-infrared-sensitive-ccd.html I was looking for strobe lights and found the following, a 36X zoom-able camera with IR!!! How sick is that? I bet Kloner has...

I'm not in the big boy class for sure, or at least I don't think so with an F550 but I haven't read all the rules. How many beers did he lift?

If anyone is interested, Hobbyking is doing their beer lift again. Here are the details... http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/beerlift.asp?utm_campaign=200313USE&utm_content=92087078&utm_medium=email&utm_source=EDM edited: I presume you didn't want to advertise a "Beef" lift? Bartman

"I did buy a PCB for it for power distribution..." Do you mean a power distribution board or do they have a PCB layer like the F550's have where it's built into the frame? Is that an upgrade? How do you like the Tarot 680? How does it fly? I'd like to move up to that from the F550. Can you...

"So a 12 gauge battery wire can allow too much power going to the BEC?" No, 12 gauge wire to the BEC is fine and plenty big enough but 12 gauge wire to your main PCB connector that you'd connect your batteries to that would drive all your motors would be too small in my opinion. When my wire...

Excellent!! I'd also like to see added to the new person's list a section of expectations of FPV pilots. Something like, Welcome to this forum, as an FPV pilot there are many expectations from us that you may not be aware of. The crafts we fly, although fun, are dangerous and can cause serious...

That's a good idea and let everyone contribute to it and modify it as we think of more things or to streamline it etc. I'm going flying today, probably won't see any poachers but I may get revenge on some Buzzards who were trying to knock me out of the sky lol. This time at least my camera...

Yes, but we don't need to band together in a group to do it. All of us are ambassadors to this hobby so it's our responsibility as responsible people to put out the correct information as well as fly responsibly and to report others who do not. I try not to fly over anyone or anything where if I...

Roger that admin! I'm off my soap box I promise :) :) :)

Other countries, like Canada and England etc, take education seriously which results in many positive side-effects like higher tax paying citizens and reduced violent crime etc. In these countries High School is important and if you don't do well then you aren't afforded the highest education...

Ditto, and 80% of the entire Earth's population are just that, 10% keep us moving forward and the other 10% are your common people who are smart enough to keep it moving. Keep in mind that even tribes in the Amazon use steel knives and wear Levis :) Every time I go to merge on the freeway and...

The FBI is investigating and they've likely been on websites just like this one trying to figure out who or what it was exactly. From the article below they are doing an investigation of drones and not just who is flying them but more what their general purpose is. It will only take one idiot to...

Glad I could help Dave, that's why I'm here buddy. To calibrate the low voltage warning take into account the following. The larger the capacity of your battery the lower the setting can be because the longer it takes to get to that voltage and vice versa. For example if you draw 30A to hover...

Hey Rob, don't get too caught up in "ordering parts from the right store". I used 6 gauge left over wire from a ROMEX roll that is used for wiring up houses. It's still stranded wire and it's copper, I'm not sure I'd use 12 gauge wire to flow big amperage through my main PCB connector. I used...

Northern lights! Wow, that would be oustanding....I just had a dogfight with about 6 buzzards today and my Go Pro shut off half-way in the video so I only captured half of it and of course I missed the best parts. They were dive bombing me and circling me like prey so I started doing it back to...
