    Welcome to RC Shutter

    Haven't had any of ours die, will keep an eye out for it. In fairness however they are like 14 bucks, we bought 5 or 6 of em and keep em in our flight bag for immediate replacement if they ever fail.

    Aeronavics / Droidworx DroidWorx Completed Builds

    I'm also running Tri-Quad 8000mah parallels on our Jib. Watch out for the maxamps 11,000... better bet is the 10,500 due to C Rating.

    Multirotor voltage on 8fgSuper

    Nope, no telemetry with the 8fg super, you'll need extra gear. Just added DJI MarkII iOSD to our Wookong birds which frankly was a bit of a pain in the *** but worth it in the end.

    6 Motor Failures. What is this noob doing wrong.

    Hi Deanot, the extensions work fine I think it may be more to do with my application.. I'm fitting it with a brushless gimbal which are extremely sensitive to vibration. Currently the Gimbal is mounted using M10 vibration dampers which are not working well. Will be trying MUCH more vibration...

    Aeroxcraft Brushless Gopro Gimbal

    Uhhh that landing gear looks like the 200mm model from http://www.quadframe.us/collections/landing-gear/products/200mm-clearance-landing-legs ???? I have the 215mm model which I like. Is this the same company??

    Alpha/Beta frame testers - what's the normal protocol?

    Think you're spot on with your approach - Suggest you engage RTRyder and Kloner at a minimum.

    New video antenna option

    Believe the main difference on the "Ultras" is that the RX is the Mad Mushroom 5 lobe? Have both with/without balun, no apparent difference. Something to do with balanced and unbalanced signals... It's marketed as an improvement and since it doesnt seem to hurt i'll accept that it is ;) ;)

    6 Motor Failures. What is this noob doing wrong.

    Did the extensions on a 550 using Aerial Media Pro extensions and Tiger 2814 motors and 12" Wooden Xoars. The bird is a friggen rocketship now, unfortunately its also a vibration monster. My guess is the plastic arms flex with this much torque.

    General Camera mount theory (open discussion)

    I have a custom payload which requires being underslung... I'm wondering if a picavet FROM the AV200 might work. Mounting the payload from the bottom of the AV200 tray on a single solid stick created the pendulum effect.
