I don't care, call me "stupid". I know it's a good thing to be as safe as one can be, But I've NEVER discharged any of my 30 odd lipos. And I usually charge em right back up, after they've cooled off. But I do usually go through 3 or 4 packs about every day (retired old fart). I store most in a...

Wowzers, that's yet another different motor layout. Front right for 1 and rear left for 2, and so on. Don't feel bad sweder, I just spent 3 days setting up a 250 quad, and I have a bag of broke props, and a few cuts on my arms to prove it. BUT, she's flying fine today! Sometimes disconnecting...

OK, finally got-er-done! What a pain. I think the high kv motors (2600) require a slow start setting on the ESC's. It starts at almost a hover, and the setting in Naza Lite assistant has no effect, as I believe they are starting higher than the fastest setting would be in the assistant software...

I think the lack of response may be an attitude of not caring what the idiots in the US gubment do or say. Too many chiefs, not enough indians. Time for the indians to get restless, and reorganize the chiefs! I don't know what will become of all this BS, but it ain't going to spoil my party. We...

I agree, you gotta watch those antenna types. I received a TX one time, that was SMA, but had RP-SMA antennas. If I hadn't noticed, and powered up the TX with the RP-SMA dipole that came with it, it would have fried.

There is something about ESC's that I can't quite understand. I'm having different problems with startup. First, with a KK2.1 board, motors wouldn't start at the same time, erratic. Tried different ESC's, different MC (Naza Lite). Got it down to everything working right when connected straight...

I'm having problems too, and they started with one of those "Spider 4 in 1 ESC's" Couldn't get the motors to start right with a KK2.1 board. Went to a Naza Lite, and motors start too high, even with it set as low as it will go, in the assistant. However, I'm getting the same results with...

Did some FPV today, with my Skyzone goggles. I couldn't understand why I wasn't getting a better signal, than I was. "DUH" did this whole thing with no antennas on the Skyzones, and forgot to plug in my Immersion receiver !!!! Amazing how well the Skyzones pick up, with no antennas...

OK, I think I've got oldtimers, maybe sun spots, aliens ??? I'm trying to setup a new quad. I've got my tin foil beenie on. Started with a KK2.1 MC, and a Spider 4 in 1 ESC. Problem is when arming motors, they start way too fast/high rpm. However, when ESC plugged straight to throttle of...

Ain't that something? Those little biddy clips do come off by themselves, once in awhile. But try to take one off without damaging it, what a pain!:tennis:

Maybe the cops should be the ones arrested. Oh but wait, they are "above" the law, and can do whatever they please, unlike us peasants, that pay their salary.

WoW! That thing is awsome! Love hearing those motors scream.

I swear, I don't understand all this hoopla. "could have, might have, possibly could" how many video's are out there where somebody or some thing actually gets hurt, or damaged, from a multirotor. I've seen tons of the "what if's" I've seen dented and scratched cars from multi's going down in a...

Done deal, now to wait for the knock on my door from the gestapo FPV police !!!!!!

Anyone ever watch the TV show "Eureka" Maybe this will result in more "drone friendly" cities.:tennis:

Hope there is not a law about having so dang much fun learning and flying these things...:) Shhhhhh the gobment FAA gestapo may be reading this.............................:disgust:

Ahhh, the old "A fun hobby becomes a business, not fun anymore" It's very hard to turn something we "like" to do, into something that also makes us money at the same time. Too much competition, too many idiots, too many cut throats. Like you said Bartman, it will take awhile for all this chit to...

I don't think the Lite should have any problem with that size quad. I noticed a strange "twitch" with both the Lite, and the KK2. That's why I'm guessing motor/esc Also the screech that can be heard occasionally, maybe a sync problem. ????

I'm just guessing, after watching the videos, but I'm thinking something to do with the motor/ESC combination, and ESC calibration. Maybe mismatched motors, or a bearing or 2 going bad ???? "Just a few guesses":tennis:
