You should be able to kill someone with that......... With those batteries my TDR could fly for over an hour.:tennis:

If you have a 5D or a 550D which I prefer then you need to reflash it to Magic lantern and then you can shoot raw. This will give you the dynamic range. You could always consider shooting it before dark and then you could probably use a GoPro which has a lot more chance of working for you. And...

Yes. That is before I do any other work, because it is a waste of time if the shaft and bearings are not correct in the first place. You need a high performance oil, a modern F1 engine as an example would not run for very long on normal motor oils.

Try checking the resistance of each phase, a short across a few windings wont stop your motor but it will run rough. also the settings applied to each ESC Timing etc.

I spend a lot of time reworking my motors, rewinds and shaft clearances in particular. But the most crucial part is the balancing of the bell. This is done with an Iphone app called vibration and it is so sensitive that it can hear the bearing noise. If you have any noise in the bearings you...

I worked with Tom King in the early days of WaterSki International which was a long time ago, so I was pleased to see he is still knocking their eyeballs out with creative stuff. This is a good example of how AP compliments your production without letting it get too boring. I suppose you would...

I think I just might build one like this..... :tennis:

If it works OK with Fut aba then OK but it needs to work with Dragon Link or EZ-UHF to be in the pro end of where it's at.

Anyone know if Tarot are bringing out a three axis version?

APM 2.6 has come of age and is as good as anything out there. Cheaper than most, and it is an educational experience that allows the user to learn what he needs to know whilst being fairly easy to set-up. In terms of autonomous features it has a lot of stuff that other boards only offer as...

You can transmit a relay signal from your ground station to another monitor or take a long cable from the back of the monitor. I cant see any reason why you cant use more than one rx station.

In my experience it is less than a mile more like a kilometer, That Tx is not very powerful. Make sure that you have initiated Return to Home correctly. The big problem is when your FPV looses contact when you are too far out and have to turn off to get it back.

When I do it for TV CGI with a full size helicopter before a major, they have to close the course by law. That is because we are cleared to fly below the the statutory limit for the area. Shooting for your local club is a bit different, they should be informed that they are responsible for...

make that 5 upgrades...

I have a Zen with a Nex-7, just back from a factory update, offers around 2.2K euros. Also the WKM to go with it for another 450 euro. IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED.

What you need to do is get a small compass from Holgar and then go around the airframe when it is powered up and see if you have any magnetic fields that could interfere with the mag. I always fix a special thin sheet of ant-mag. material on the back of the GPS puck. This stuff comes from the...

I just learned of a local wannabe guy who crashed a large gasser heli into some cars and a power cable whilst attempting a to shoot stills with a 7D. I just wish these guys would leave that kind of work to professionals. Before they F/U the whole business. He could have killed someone. No...
