To continue what was started above, I believe sensible and functional rules be developed for safe operations of ALL aircraft, rules that recognize the changes that have taken place between how things used to be, and the technologies in play that are defining how things currently are and can be...

I'm not in the mood to spend a lot of time looking for the video but there is an instance where an RC operator was flying a demonstration at a private airport fly in as part of the official program. After being told he could take the run way by the event director, while under the supervision of...

It works just like regular RC. If people that have been doing take a little time to help those just starting out newbies can develop a pattern of safety and good flight habits they can carry on the others. The only issue today is finding the newbies. They can be flying from their front or...

It's all chit anyway;) Just don't sweat the petty stuff but do pet the sweaty stuff.

I'm afraid I'm in the second group and made the mistake of tracking almost every cent I've spent making these things happen this year. I'd been wondering why I always seemed short of cash. After totaling all the receipts I now know why. Two smaller quads, a giant quad that needs to be an...

Part of you sucks up and hides as deep inside as it can get...

I was using the 0C temp reference:)

Not to mention instantly educating the user on setting up the defib. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Does that mean we have to reduce the ice cream inventory to replace with batteries? Tell me that isn't so. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks fun, I want one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That method has worked pretty well for many years but there have been incidents where ATC failed to see the conflict relationship between aircraft and a collision occurred. One such event occurred between a commercial passenger jet and a light aircraft over the city of Cerritos, CA some years...

From experience, a GPS altimeter does not report the same altitudes as a pressure altimeter. Went through that working with the military using a GPS altimeter. The two types would start a flight roughly equal if both dialed in the same way using field elevation or baro pressure but as time and...

I don't know about the 9c but I found with the 14SG you have to work through a bunch of different end point adjustments to got the "lost link" failsafes to function with an A2. May need to try the same thing with the 9 and Naza.

I just charge them after using them and don't worry too much about the loss factors. The only batteries I know of that doesn't self discharge a lot and manages to handle the cold pretty well are A-123 and Eneloop types but they don't fit our aircraft very well.

I've known of the Sagetech products for quite some time, I have a box full one type in my shop, but production quantities are not high enough to permit lowering the price structure. I had spoken with some people at Sagetech about development of a miniature ADS-B out system and they mentioned...

DJI will release 40 new products that work well most of the time with frequent software updates that will function correctly less than half the time. Amazon will be awarded a U.S. flight test area, hire numerous test pilots and engineers, while using 3D Robotics to significantly advance FC...

Forgot about those drop bears......

The difference is he actually builds them to fit the frequency range they are intended to serve, plus he uses consistent assembly practices with good materials. The China/HK stuff is all over the low side of the quality map and wire lengths/loop shapes are not accurately sized to the frequency...

Call him. Ziv is real good at answering questions. Better still, call him and invite him here to tell everyone more.
