I have a stretched F550 with Avroto motors that's pretty heavy. I'm interested in testing some 10" or 11" 3 blade props on it. Any recommendations or things to look for when picking a 3 blade prop? Has anyone tested this already on a F550? If performance is good on 10" 3 blade props, I would...

http://www.multirotorforums.com/showthread.php?6322-F550-AP-ship-progress-so-far - So this is my ship, I crashed my F550, and i'm thinking of a different frame this time. I'm considering a new frame because my F550 is getting heavy.. with 11" props it still has plenty of power but I'd still like...

Well I've made allot of progress, so I figured I'd just start a new thread. This is how I've come with my goal for an F550 AP setup, and a few shots from it's first flight. It's really heavy, but seems to have enough power to still handle and react quickly. The video from the nex5n to my...

Ok I have a F550 with extended arms, Avroto motors and 11x5.5E props I'm using 2 5000mah packs in parallel NAZA+GPS flight controller. OK my problem is a lack of power, and Hexa looking like it wants to tip over on takeoff. on ATTI mode, I move the throttle a little above half way, and the...

So I've extended the arms on my F550 and got some Avroto motors. I started using 11x4.7 Slow Fly props and I really like them, way better then the 10x4.5's I had before. But I can't seem to find any 12x4.7 slow fly's.. Any recommendations on a good prop to use that is reasonably priced?

Anyone? Would this help achieve more lift without bigger props? Worth it? Thinking about doing this with sunnysky 2216 800kv motors on 4s.. or 3s... idk

Where are you guys getting your arm LED's I see on all these F550's?

So here's my work in progress flying FPV platform. Still putting this thing together, will post more as I go. Started building it saturday, and here I am. Equipment: DJI F550 frame. NAZA + GPS stabilization 1.2ghz 1W vTx 2.4ghz 1W booster for control Tx WDR770 FPV cam AR8000 dsmx reciever...

I have some 4000mah and 5000mah 4s packs I want to use on my F550. They came with a weird bullet connector type plug that doesn't fit my parallel charging board, or fit any other plugs I have. I want to use these packs single, or maybe sometimes 2x packs in parallel for an 8-10Ah pack. Just...

Thanks for all the advice for this project of mine guys. Another question, with the F550 I do NOT need a power distribution board right?? Am I missing anything I still need to order? Please confirm someone.. I ordered: NAZA+GPS 30A OPTO ESCx6 many props 2814Q motors x6 F550 frame with spare...

I need 6 motors for my hexa. I really like the AVRoto's but at 55 a pop, thats just to much for 6 of them! Any decent 2814 750-770kv motor I could get in place of the avroto's? Looking to make a purchase today, so any advice appreciated! I can squeeze 40 bucks USD per motor but thats really...

Anyone use these motors?? sunnysky 2814 900kv I want to use the extension plates, and 12" props for the F550 frame on 4S with the 30A opto esc's. I know everyone likes the Avroto's, but I can't see myself spending over 300 bucks on 6 motors.

I really like that landing gear/gimbal.. Has anyone done this? What would I have to do to make that work? As an alternative, I am debating the photoshipone mkTR gear/gimbal but that ones a bit heavy and pricey Also, I would really like this gear with an AV130 mount(non 360), I think I could...

Considering the F550 frame now I really just can't decide! I Hope to carry the mkTR landing gear/mount with it, undecided camera, a video tx, video converter for the tx, OSD, and WKM. Would I have problems with this frame? Is anyone doing AP with the F550 frame? I want to run 10" props on 4s and...

OK so I've decided to gather all the components myself over buy the DJI kit, since I want to run 10" props on 4s. So far I am about to order: Frame kit F550 OPTO 30A ESC x6 Suppo 2814/8 1000kv motor x6 (are these a direct fit?) NAZA+GPS controller graupner 10x5 props x6 I allready have a...

Anyone could this be done? Since I allready have a bunch of 6s batteries.. I have no idea what motor/prop combo I would need though.. Would it be better to just buy new 3s/4s batteries and get the F550 as a kit?

Hey guys, Little about me, I'm currently working offshore with remotely operated vehicles (the Schilling UHD) or ROV's for short. It's really cool, but I'd rather be working for myself! Looking to buy a decent multi-rotor AP ship. Originally, I thought single rotor, CP was the way to go when I...
