My thoughts exactly. I search craigslist daily for bmpcc's and I usually see them in good condition for decent prices but am a little leery although I have had good luck with CL. There aren't different versions as far as I know, the only difference would be the firmware version right?

You have to be careful with the liquid tape. Covering an entire board with it can cause it to overheat. Great for "electrical" connections but not so great for "electronics".

Well at least they manned up and admitted they couldn't do it rather than make excuses. Plus it puts the whole matter to bed so we don't have to wonder anymore. I guess my question is should I get the micro or the BMPCC? One has a screen but the other can be controlled remotely. If I want it for...

Yes its true, to broadcast on certain frequency's you need to be a licensed amateur radio operator. It becomes a problem once you cause harmful interference with (other hams) or anyone else. I can tell you that no one is going to complain about your 600mw 5.8 ghz video transmitter. So...

All brushless motors require ESC's. basically all FC's and multirotors are designed with ESC's in mind. CC3D was the hot FC for a while but it seems that the Naze32 is very popular now. A mini is a good first build, they are inexpensive to build. Keep in mind that most of the small FC's are open...

Yes positive is always in the middle and then in this case negative is on the bottom and the other symbol represents your signal wire. I don't know what the 3 pin connector is for in your pic. It may be power out from the gimbal. You could power up your gimbal and then check to see if there is...

There are some good videos on youtube explaining this, Basically you assign them the way you want them. In other words, pins 1 through 8 can now be 9 through 16. I am running a naza with s bus and I assigned pin 8 (IIRC) to the remote shutter. I'm getting ready to set up a gimbal tilt function...

Search around these forums, I seem to recall reading about that exact FC and the problems with it.

One of my favorites so far. I need to get my MR out tho the desert.

3 weeks wont hurt it. Its best to store lipo's long term at 40 to 50% capacity. A good charger will have a storage charge feature and a discharge feature. I bought a couple of voltage regulators from hobbyking...

I would agree that there might be some frustrating times as your learning but overall it's affordable and works very well once you get it figured out. I just bought my first real (non go pro) gimbal with alexmos and over the course of 2 or 3 weeks in my spare time I was able to get it going...

Looking forward to seeing more Jay!

Just so you know, There are some members here that will disapprove of your methods (flying over crowds). I'm not one of them but I wouldn't feel comfortable doing it for my own reasons. But that's just me. Those are some cool shots on your site. I hope you never have a crash and have to use that...

Interesting, has anyone ever tried to knock your phantom out of the air when you were flying over? I saw a few slow pull backs from over a crowd on your site. I would be nervous someone would toss up a tee shirt or something just to be a smartass.

I like getfpv.com but you can probably build a good 250 racer for a lot less.

Well you cant argue with that, $270 including the radio and a cute led siren. Plus its been tested and works. If I was a newcomer I would probably do this.

This probably holds true for a lot of companies in China and elsewhere. I'm always a little leery when I place a large order from china. I have several places that I have used and I have never been let down so far (knock on wood). I do believe that most places send your stuff but then it gets...

Well then there ya go. answered your own question.

I couldn't see any reason why these wouldn't be safe.

I would like to add that I found an app for my smart phone that has all of the Naza led meanings. Works great and it was free. Same as the cheat sheet card but in an app. search " DJI led description"
