    AV200 Brushless Upgrade & Stabilization Unit

    MultiWii / NAZE / SP Racing F3 MultiWii Woes

    I recently bought an X525, which came with a KK Blackboard 5.5, for a bit of fun but quickly realised the KK board's limitations so I bought a CRIUS MultiWii SE v0.2 board and program adapter which is supposed to have most of the goodies already on the board. My problem is trying to get into...

    Planned Skyjib8 Build Specs
