    amazon drone store

    I love Amazon. I pay $80 per year for "Prime" and get free shipping on most items, plus I watch a lot of "Prime" movies and TV shows through my Roku player and Amazon Prime.

    Hybrid multi-rotor , gas engine for lift and electric motors for control

    How's about 4 nitro/gas engines, with the FC/MC controlling the throttles? Or go the way of the "Stingray" one motor running 4 varible pitch props. http://curtisyoungblood.com/V2/products/quadcopters/stingray-500

    skyzone goggle setup with Dji Naza plz help

    I had my Skyzones head tracker setup with my Spektrum DX7s one time. It took hours of fiddling around to get everything set right. Still couldn't get it to center perfectly, but was close. Took it out on my 550 hex, and promptly crashed! Might be nice on a plane, or multirotor in a big open...

    New motors and esc's causing yaw issues... Help!

    Some motors have more clearance than others. I've only had the problem 1 time, out of 12 builds. But when chasing problems, you never know.:nevreness:

    New motors and esc's causing yaw issues... Help!

    I had too long of motor screws once, and it drove me nuts, trying to figure out what was going on, until one motor threw out some sparks! I was blaming the ESC's. Got lucky, and didn't hurt anything. Shorter screws, and all was fine. An easy check, is with an ohm meter, I used the continuity...

    Sometimes makes no sense, like when I see a car wheel, with two big weights on. 180 degrees apart ??????

    Don't do it the hard way

    Here's a good one. Don't lean over the top of your multirotor while trying to hear the beeps from the ESC's when calibrating, WITH THE PROPS ON! (Don't ask):black_eyed:

    Recording FPV

    Kloner, you know a whole lot more about this stuff, than I'll ever, but was wondering. This "stoppage" of recording when the signal breaks up, is the same phenomenon that causes some cheap monitors to go blue screen? If so, they fixed that on my Black Pearl monitor, so I guess perhaps it's...

    Recording FPV

    Thanks Kloner. I have it set on "continuous record" no motion sense. With all the trees, etc. I get a lot of breakup, especially when I fly around to the front of my mobile home. I know this 5.8 isn't supposed to go through things, but I'm also trying a Black Mamba TX, it shows an output of 1.2...

    Recording FPV

    OK, got the cheapo DVR working sorta OK. Fed it off my Immersion duo receiver, so I guess the extra punch helped. Still cuts out once in awhile, but starts another video when signal comes back. I'm still learning. And for my Mustang, it's an 88, with a hopped up 306 V8, all the goodies, 5 speed...

    Recording FPV

    Been messing around, trying to record my FPV, using an old Aiptek mini camcorder. It works, but as soon as I get some interference, it stops recording. Feeding it off the video output from my Black Pearl 7" diversity monitor. Also, this is from a 250 mini, and one of those iddy biddy cheap TX's...

    Lumenier DX600 DVR

    Well, I got tired of trying all my old, out dated devices, to try to record my FPV video from either the video output on my Skyzone goggles, or the output on my new Black Pearl 7" diversity monitor. So I just ordered one of these. We'll see. Anyone out there already have one...

    Vulcan black widow X8 build

    Pretty neat monster there! Glad you're getting it sorted out. A lot of people want to bash Naza, but I'm a fan of the Lites, especially when price is considered. (Naza Lite w/GPS, $169). I can't believe the price of some of the other MC's. I've wondered what the actual "real" cost of some of...

    Understanding Lithium Polymer batteries

    I know what you're saying, a lot of opinions, everybody has one. In my opinion, it rests on how much you like your batteries. Cheap. old batteries, who cares? Good expensive batteries, you take care of, don't overwork, over cook, or over use. The more you beat them up, the rougher they perform...
