Dewster, I am curious what size props are you using on your hexa build. I am thinking of purchasing a DJI 550 and try it our with my AVROTO motors but I am not sure where to start with the props. Thanks for your input about your build. Jack

I agree I am very impressed with the way we are seeing it put together. I can not wait to play with it when it comes

more NAB Stuff More !!! - Thanks Boris good stuff

TooManyHobbies here is a link, that will give you a good idea, I have done some changes since to make it better but, I am generally in this realm over the next few days in between me going out of town I will try to get better photos and post them up here. The camera is a sony cybershot hx9v

I am always keep an eye on this. In the next year or so the FAA is required to make guidelines so that we flyers can use our craft (to say) to earn money. Looking around, and talking to some I am starting to get a general idea where FAA may be heading in the regulations for commercial use of...

Before I start I can say this may not be the best combination but for those of you that go this root its doable - but not strongly suggested - there are other ways to do this, probably - Will leave it at that. It taken me forever but between the beefy motors I put on (avroto) WK-M, frame...

I can understand that, Rusty I have the same set up but looking at what you did with the motor mounts I believe you may have torqued the plastic on the mount to much causing it to buckle. It has taken a lot of work on my end. When it came to my motors the screws end up hitting the motor so I...

great vid, that NEX7 is a nice camera.

flight time I know its out there, however I have not had a lot of time to track it down but what is the expected flight time for the 800

Kilby I am using a sony cyber shot hx9v. It works pretty good and I also am using it on the aerial side. I produces a 16mb file, however I find it runs hot in the aperture range so I need to bring it down a .7 on the exposure. The other thing I find the higher the ISO setting the more it drowns...

So I have taken my quad and moved all the weight of the camera and battery below the center of the craft. It now is flying better especially with stability in flight. The one difference I am seeing is that if I am in a windy condition moving forward when I go from forward flight to either slow...

This is two photos one from inside the dome and one from outside.

Dominic what is your set up, motors and frame. I was getting a lot of white lights, however it was not until I stiffened up the frame I was able to get rid of them.

Just a collection of video I gathered last weekend, as I am working to make the vid better all the time. If you look at the beginning that vid has some vibration, middle of the clip with the suspension bridge the video very little vibration so I threw it thew a video stabilizer, however when you...

Hey Dazza22: not sure what you were doing or how long you had the unit on before you took to the skies, my first guess is that you had it in fail safe mode, somehow and once you got off the ground and it took in a GPS signal, it went into Fail/Safe mode, climbed to the fail safe height and took...

Shui I do not blame you I want to migrate to another frame and plan on doing so down the road, For not though I just find this a challenge and I am ok where it is. I am not sure of my next move. I can tell you that my vibration problem is coming from out where the motors are. I recently saw...

just wondering what others would do out there. Currently I am on a 6600mha battery and getting 10 min of flight. I am just trying to figure out if that is a good flight duration, I am always open for suggestions thanks in advance

I am looking for something that is small, light and works. I am not looking for anything extravagant I just need something that works and allows me to see what I am looking at. Any suggestions are helpful thanks Jack

shiu I think I got it, here is a sample of raw video I took from my set up, by the way I like your hexa set up. I ended up building a mount that fit in the landing gear, I then set it on some gel pad and the like is my result. I am pretty happy. Also moving the camera more to the CG has made...
