best of luck, you've certainly spent a lot of money, should fly awesome!

I wonder what it would be like if an American defense contractor was able to sell a sub 1000.00 dronacopter? If I were LMT, I would make an offer for hasbro just so I had a friendlier marketing arm to the public...

I liked it better last year when all you had to have was available stock and a paypal account- BOOM, you're a phantom pilot! Sounds like the money won't be made in flying dronacopters but in the ridiculous amount of inspection and reams of paper work.

No seat won't go over well with the Hoveround crowd...

yes I have that one too… just try and match up the color plugs with the right pin as shown on your device with a + and - and a lil hat symbol that my key bored no have. good luck!

Check your servo wires are plugged in right way up, on the naza the signal wire of the 3 will be on top, but on your spectrum receiver your signal wire will be on the bottom.

Damn straight! One of us needs to go on FOX and fly nose in to show how safe these are. I kid but all you can do is try and show how safe these are. The government doesn't care if you open some kind of business, they just want to make sure there's a big enough paper trail that all the pigs at...

Sorry Sleepy, it's not what he said that matters to the public, it's what he did. It's almost as if opponents of personal drone ownership are paying guys to f up on highly public stages, seriously.

Point proven, drone/quad/toy whateva, crashed into a crowd on national television and not one single injury, and this needs to be regulated? What's the national death tole from these things again?

You're going to have to start breaking them down in to classes. That one's big enough to turn 7"'s! About your vtx placement, good luck with that. Every crash I've had finishes with a sunny sky down landing. I would think you'd put it in the front bay with the ant sticking out the side. That...

All this hullabaloo over regs is just the formality leading up to the pay to play moment. On a positive note we just found out this week that dji has the ability to dead stick your personal investment if the request comes from a high enough source, so we got that going for us. which is nice...

yeah, that's one of the reasons I abandoned the naze board, I kept slightly omitting things, too tweaky for me.

You'll also need to connect a servo cable between your flip and an aux plug on your receiver. Then go into baseflite and go to aux config and assign the channel to the function.

That is a pretty ship. Crazy to think it's all 3-d printed. I couldn't tell in the video but how are the arms attached to the body and also, how flexible are the legs- does it bounce on less than gentle landings? very cool guys, always enjoy your shows!

I imagine a lot of these types of certification programs will start popping up trying to catch the phantom flyer guys looking for legitimacy. I remember the great bartender shortage of '82, tons of bartending schools pop up, the great mutual fund seller shortage of '87, tons of mutual fund...

Don't know if you've calibrated the esc's yet but, and this can get tricky- Turn on your radio, raise throttle all the way up, here's the tricky part, while holding down buttons 1 and 4 on the kk board, plug in battery, wait for the single tone (mine was really faint) when you hear the tone...

sh#t happens, it just happened to that poor drunk guy in the wrong neighborhood. a dome I tell ya, a big plexiglass dome...

you can buy them at any camera shop though. screw trying to make a living filming, be the guy who comes up with the breathalyzer for the transmitters. Blow in the tube before it'll arm the motors...

Those esc's are opto's, the kk board needs at least one but really 2 esc's with built in bec's to drop voltage down to the receiver. Not sure you can use those with the kk board. paste this into google- can you use opto escs with the kk 2.1.5 board? one of the results you'll get will lead you...

It would not be the first time this admin has used dubious means to try and shove an agenda down the publics throat. I don't think it's about the government not wanting drones out in the public, they just want to make sure the drones are in hands with allegiance to them-meaning those who pay...
