    Hoverfly How to power the rx?

    When I make wiring harnesses for my quads I usually solder in a couple of the little red JST connectors. I've run a standalone turnigy BEC off of that and connected it to one of the open ESC ports on the HFPro. Of course if you're making an octocopter this won't work but as anything else where...

    Fatshark BASE vs. DOMINATOR

    I've had my Fat Shark Base goggles for probably 2 years now, they were a HUGE leap from flying from an LCD screen, at least for me anyway. I guess if I were toting around a 40" TV in the back of a van that would be fun :) My Fat Sharks are getting a little old and the plastic lenses are getting...

    Hoverfly How many amps does the HF Pro board draw?

    Thanks George for the specs, I feel better knowing I'll be under an amp. Thanks also to Gary, I went ahead and threw caution to the wind and did a test hover tonight and all went well. Next I need to check the clarity of the video signal while the motors are running to make sure the LC filter is...

    Hoverfly Down to my last multirotor

    Here are some photos of my Rusty's Frame Y6 setup. It's based on the Rev8 version of his plates. Round wood booms, Frankenquad rib-bones landing gear, love those things. Thanks everyone for the comments! The Y6 weighs in AUW at 1934g with a 3000mah 3s battery. I don't know that I would...

    Hoverfly How many amps does the HF Pro board draw?

    I've got one of the original Green HF Pro boards hooked up to my HF GPS board but I have to use the LC Filter since the green board doesn't have built in power filter. I also need to filter the power to my FPV camera/Transmitter. The VTx draws 500mA and the LC filter can provide 1Amp max, can I...

    Hoverfly Down to my last multirotor

    Well after losing video on my HFPro+GPS flagship quad and crashing, then hitting a treebranch with my Home Brew quad and crashing. I'm down to my last assembled multi rotor, a Y6 based on Rusty's Frame parts. I took it out for a little flying last night and it did pretty well considering the...

    Hoverfly Home brew

    Sure! Let me dig around for the illustrator file I drew up for this. Although I made some tweaks afterwards, like longer arms. Don't know if I have the skills to make your setup :) --------------------- 8 hours later :) ---------------------------------------- Here are the illustrator files I...

    Hoverfly Hit a tree, broke a prop and still made it home.

    Nice one, impressive you were able to stay airborne! I've hit plenty of trees in my day and have only been able to stay in the air a couple of times. Definitely a testament to the HF controller!

    Ha, I just caught your folding frame thread over at RCGroups, nicely done! That's what I've been trying to achieve but you've beat me to it. Please send one at your earliest convenience... haha ;)

    Can you uninstall the existing 4.6 setup client version then try to install the older setup client?

    Hoverfly Calibrate ESC's or?? Using HF Sport. (Choppy Throttle)

    I don't think the Sport board's firmware has the latest updates that allow for throttle calibration all hooked up. You'll probably need to hook each esc up to your receiver one at a time and calibrate them. Or you can solder up a 4 to 1 esc harness that allows you to hook them all up at once to...

    Hoverfly Home brew

    Yeah the nylon bolts sheared on the top and the legs folded in so the props and nylon bolts are the only broken items. Although I have it torn down inspecting everything at the moment and have plans to move it all to another quad possibly, not sure though. I liked this frame.

    Hoverfly Home brew

    I would love too but would need someone with a CNC machine. Although now I've got some ideas for improvements... hehe I have seen that and nearly pulled the trigger on one. I do have one of these: http://www.multiwiicopter.com/products/12mm-gopro-hero-hd-housing-pivot-mount It's nice for...

    Hoverfly Quadcopter yaw to the left (hoverfly sport)

    On the flight where it started to go bad was your battery low? I've had some REALLY weird yaw behaviors when I've used older batteries that dip a little low after flying. I've since learned to mark those batteries and just use them on the bench for testing. May not be your problem but thought I...
