    Si3POs Build Log: X550 quad

    "Nose in" can be a *****, especially in close quarters. I'm still trying to figure out how it sorta "just comes" one day. I learned with planes, when nose coming at me, to turn my back towards the plane, and look over my left shoulder. That way, left is still left, etc. etc. Finally one day, it...

    Si3POs Build Log: X550 quad

    I give a second, for the HQPROPS. Very nice, I rarely have to balance them at all! They do chip if you touch a tip to something that doesn't move, but work well, and quiet too. I've been getting mine from WiteSpy http://witespyquad.gostorego.com/propellers.html

    Gaui 350X w/Naza Litew/GPS

    Assembled my 350X today, it's raining, so nuttin else better to do. I am impressed with the kit. Instructions suck, but after studying things for awhile, it's pretty simple. Tomorrow I'll mount the Naza Lite, and GPS puck, program her up, and fly! Anybody else have one of these? Are the motors...

    A warning to newbies

    SCAREY for sure. I'm begining to realize that these Lipo's aren't as easy to get along with, as I thought. As usual, cheap ain't always good.

    Drone and rescue chopper nearly collide as drone crashes mount

    But it's a toy "DRONE" da-da- dom-dom. I'm thinking now, maybe it's the "quiet" part. I mean they ain't silent, but are quiet enough to be considered "sneaky".

    plastic/fiberglass domes

    Well, the one for "only" $45 is for pre order ha ha. And the one for $25 + shipping, looks just like the ones I can get for $7 to $8 each. I was just curious, as 99% of these domes, were made for something else, and probably dirt cheap. Not trying to be a cheapee, just wondering what they were...

    $30K Mistake

    Same crap goes on with just about anything. Ban the drone, the pilot, the manufacturer, ban the gun, the bullet, the person holding the gun. Lock us all up in padded cells, and only let us out on sunny days. Wrap us up in bubble wrap. No sharp or pointed instruments allowed, don't run with...

    plastic/fiberglass domes

    I recently cracked the clear plastic dome on one of my multirotors. I can get another from the supplier, $7/8 each! but was wondering what others have found to use. I've seen some Tupperware bowls, etc. and I know these domes weren't made specifically for multirotors, so where do they come from...

    FPV Setup - DJI 550

    I think it depends on what type of FPV you intend on doing. Open field, or obstacles. I setup FPV on one of my older Phantoms, and have a blast flying around my acre, dogging all the trees, etc. sort of slow motion, but I have fun. Others, on the tube, fly fast and furious, but those are usually...

    I did a News Interview this morning, Video

    I don't think nobody is knocking you. Some of us get hooked on the "what if's" You know, like "what if" I walk out my front door, and a limb from my oak tree falls and breaks my skull. Silly. Every time we do anything, it can go good, or bad, sideways, or upside down. Your recent publicity has...

    I did a News Interview this morning, Video

    One never knows the fear of the camera, until you're in front of one. You never know how the story will end up after editing, etc. Good job on keeping cool, nice interview. But I have to agree, "IF" something bad had happened in that interview, it would have made national/world news, for sure...
