    Planned Skyjib8 Build Specs

    I am planning to build a SJ8 and have been doing a lot of researching (time wasted on the computer going round and round in circles) and have come up with what appears to me to be a suitable list of components to fit out the airframe and get it flying. I am going to worry about the FPV...

    Mikrokopter Mikrokopter Licence

    I was checking out the MK gps and nav boards and see they have a Private only user licence limited to 250m If you purchase the commercial licence it will allow you to go to 500m This seems a bit crazy to me... Does anyone know how much the commercial licence costs?? Thanks, Lance

    Hi from Australia

    Hi fellow MultiRotor Enthusiasts. I am new to multirotors but have been flying R/C Helis for over 20 years. There are a few multirotors at our flying fields and they have caught my attention so I thought it was about time I started looking at getting myself one. My interest is in aerial...

    Wanted Wanted Hex or Octo Meduim/Heavy lift

    As the title says, I am looking for a Medium/Heavy Lift Hex or Octo, preferably with a camera mount but I'll consider anything not needing a total rebuild. I have been flying RC Helis for a while now and have strapped a few cameras on and been happy with the results but want something a bit...
