    Y6 versus Hexacopter....... Advantages one over the other? Chime in!!

    I really don't have much of a problem with wind unless I'm hovering or something like that and it's heavy wind, say 25mph+. When I go up to 1500 feet on a windy day I get blown around some but other than I really dont have much of an issue with it. My kind of flying is not your kind of flying...

    8FG & Naza set-up

    No idea but I can tell you that when I covered my Naza it started working perfectly. I'd cover it, what's it going to hurt even if it does nothing?

    8FG & Naza set-up

    Ok that was odd, when I pulled up this thread the only response was from the original person. Now that I open it back up, it's 15 pages long! LOL

    8FG & Naza set-up

    Make sure you read the 8FG supplement. I dont have that radio but that's the radio I'm buying on Friday and I've read the manual. The supplement may have more information on how to adjust the endpoint on a mixed channel or whatever. In the Naza flight controller if when you switch off your radio...

    How NOT to fly a hexa DJI

    Wow, what an IDIOT that guy is. Flying a drone in the middle of a stadium full of people is not helping out at all. I hope this person got the correct permits and by the way, if you're going to do something seriously stupid like this...make sure you are the best pilot around lol...sheesh. I...

    55km range!!! Amazing!! Done with a 6 turn Helical

    I use this http://www.dpcav.com/xcart/Adjustable-Voltage-Regulator-1-35V-Step-Down.html for my 12V power bus and this for the filter http://www.dpcav.com/xcart/Power-Supply-Filter-L-C-Type.html and they work very, very well and make a noticeable difference. The voltage regulator is nice because...

    55km range!!! Amazing!! Done with a 6 turn Helical

    I'm not sure where you got that "point" from as the point is the range of the signal being transmitted. What you put that transmitter on is another story. If you can fly 55km, you can probably do 10km behind trees too. It's not about going 55km, it's about having the best quality signal and not...

    Eagle Tree PRO OSD plus all the OTHER STUFF

    Wow, sounds like I will really like it. I can't wait to get some time to install it. I have to rewire my video setup which won't be too much pain. I'm assuming everyone uses servo extension cables with these that they solder in to their audio and video input/outputs to hook into the Eagle Tree...

    Y6 versus Hexacopter....... Advantages one over the other? Chime in!!

    Very well Dave, it's only a friendly challenge anyway...just gives me a reason to fly more :) http://www.youtube.com/helloman1976 My wind signature is so tiny I really have very little trouble with winds. I have video on there where I'm flying in 35mph winds with 45+mph gusts, watch me land...

    55km range!!! Amazing!! Done with a 6 turn Helical

    It means nothing? That was still 55km whether it's on a plane or not, that's amazing. So the "upgraded SAW" filter thing is the removing of the SAW filter?

    Y6 versus Hexacopter....... Advantages one over the other? Chime in!!

    I'll take that challenge anytime, show me something you can do with your Y6 that I can't do with my Hexa..game on :) I've personally landed, and on video on YouTube, my Hexa with a failed engine. I crashed my Y6 the second a motor shutdown in my driveway. With the hexa I was up around 300 feet...

    Eagle Tree PRO OSD plus all the OTHER STUFF

    What does this mean, "...but you won't need it unless tracking to reset home"? I heard that you should hook up the throttle because power comes from there as well as the battery input, is that correct? It's almost like battery backup I guess from what I understand just reading the manual, is...

    55km range!!! Amazing!! Done with a 6 turn Helical

    Thoughts? Has anyone else gotten range like this? Any idea what the "SAW" filter does in laymen s terms? Plain basic English would be fine :) Is it a huge improvment? Is that was makes 55km possible for this guy? I'm amazed at the range when it's hard enough to keep a signal at a mile lol...
