If extending the retract's down-booms works it could have the added advantage of giving you more ground clearance for the larger gimbal.

Nice!

Do you have a photo of the retract's sitting at the sides the way they'd be if in in up position? The answer to your question is: removing 4" would change it :). And considering you have been so happy with the performance - that's why I suggesting modifying the retract's as opposed to the...

The phobotic at this point is definitely not working consistently (if at all) with rotating landing gear. That would certainly be the easiest fix to eliminating the LG in the video, but it looks like it might take some time for the CP to handle it. I don't know for sure how the diameter of the...

So the key is getting the runners to fit between?

Jim, How far down would the retract's need to be mounted so they clear the lower props? Could you rig up a mount (like the extension of the plate you mentioned) that would put them low enough to be safe? Would that put them in view of the video? Seems like the stability you get now would be...

Welcome aboard Rick! Sounds like you have your hands full with Hobbies :). As I'm sure you have found, this particular hobby can benefit greatly from the computer (at times it's downright necessary). But the fact that you have grandkids who may be able to help tells me you'll have yet another...

Welcome aboard Matt. What the rest of the rig consist of? You've come to the right place for finding good info for multirotors, and I imagine there are some folks who can help you with the CC3D - unfortunately I'm not one of them :) What's the specific issue you're having? Have fun and fly...

I've been interested in this board. Great video for the calibration. Do you guys feel it's easier to get tuned than alexmos?

I hear ya. The lack of definitive info must be nerve wracking for you guys holding out on full blown advertising. I feel for you. Perhaps try to reach out to Brendan Shulman? He seems to be someone with his finger on the pulse of where the laws/regs are headed. He seems to keep a fairly...

I think the comment period is still open, no?

Welcome aboard Jan. feel Free to ask questions and dig right in. You have come to the right placeif you're looking to research and buy/build a multirotor.

Hey there. Welcome aboard. Seems like you're off to a good start with your list. Plenty of options as you've seen. I Have not used all of the options you're choosing - but I would suggest looking into some better props (perhaps locally?). Companies like APC and HQProps make some good, yet...

This winter I got to see one of these (FPV version) at an RC meet. It definitely looked like fun, and I couldn't believe all that was included at the price. Seems like you've got a nice little package of fun on your hands....and there's nothing wrong with that. Just awesome to take the...

As far as the legality of a specific multirotor - each country is going to handle that differently. So you would be best served to research where Portugal's legislation is headed, how the regulations are shaping up, and better yet become an active participant in the process. When it comes to...

I wonder when the first book will come out that tracks the actual evolution of the open source hardware/software that led to what controls our MRs now. Seems to me that there were a bunch of people working on this technology simultaneously. It would be an interesting read for sure.

I haven't updated yet. Plan on doing it next week.

Frame assembly... With all four boom assemblies complete, time to move on to the frame itself. The Super Hornet consists of two center plates; the lower plate houses the integrated power distribution board (PDB), the top plate for rigidity and protection, with ample room for additional...

TTRobotix Super Hornet X650 Build and Review sponsored by HobbyRecreationProducts.com. Occasionally you get an opportunity to test something that is outside your comfort zone. Anyone who knows me will tell you that I like to tinker with things…. A lot! Motorcycles, 3D printers, multirotors…...

Double check the binding and that setting for the type of Rx connection. Otherwise, you could reinstall the firmware. You'd have to redo some calibrations etc. But if there are no other settings that are obviously wrong - might be the best bet.
