    The new pizza delivery system

    http://techland.time.com/2013/06/03/delivering-dominos-pizza-by-unmanned-helicopter-what-could-possibly-go-wrong/?xid=rss-topstories Not sure I'd trust my pizza with DJI. It might fly off into space and leave me hungry! Maybe they can add a RMP switch(Return My Pizza).

    MultiWii / NAZE / SP Racing F3 Anyone using APM 2.5 for aerial filming?

    I am completely unbiased and my XY8 under HFP control is hands down as solid as I can imagine one being able to get. The GPS does suck from my experience but they are working on it. I tend to fall more into the "lazy" region of the builder enthusiasm meter. I see further than the fluid basic...

    Need some pro thoughts about dji Flame innovative landing gear

    Well, it's nice to at least see you didnt copy my design. Thanks for that. I've now seen 2 places copy my design which really sucks. And they sell them for MORE! As for drilling, that will be a thing of the past in the next run of legs. It never weakened anything though, it was just an extra...

    Small Copter - Power Distro Board Recommendations??

    I used the Voltaire on the first fold n fly but it was too big and involved soldering. Ultimately found it to be cheaper and easier to use the wire harness. Since the arms fold it is nice having as much flex as possible. Though you are probably not using the fold n fly and using something bigger...

    Power leeching quads

    Yeah, all the seagulls will be chopped up on the ground while the phantoms sit on the powerline crapping rubber bird crap on the cars.

    I can't avoid this potentialy embarassing (for me) question

    Also, as i am hearing it more and more, this is called an X8 not an X4.

    Foldable and/or Backpack Rigs!

    Maybe I saw it wrong but looked like you had the gopro mounted upside down. Was more curious why you didnt just put it in right side up but it's really not that big of a deal. :)

    Foldable and/or Backpack Rigs!

    You do know there is an option to flip the image in the gopro, right? :)

    Thoughts on the V8 frame style?

    I e never seen one with a 3axis gimbal. Would it show prop?

    Hoverfly HF Firmware update server down?

    I wasn't aware you needed an Internet connection to use the software. This is only to update it that you need a connection to their server right? So why can't you just fly the old configuration?

    Dear John...I mean DJI...

    I have less of an issue with the color than I do the fact it is opposite of every CAD/VFX software I have ever used. +X goes to the right,+Y goes up, Z can vary.

    Olympus OM-D?

    Latest popular photography had this camera in it. Looks promising especially forvthe 5 axis sensor stabilization. Looks very old school retro but who cares if it is as good as reviews say. Anyone on here got one? http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/olympusem5

    Dear John...I mean DJI...

    In china red is a good luck color. Can't be negative or bad things would happen like superstitious crashes.

    FPV set-up works inside but not outside ... wtf?

    I can vouch that this is most likely the problem as I had a very similar thing happen. If not its a power issue. I was testing using a 12v transformer but it didnt have the juice to power the vtx properly.

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Skyjib Flat 8 v X4

    That would be risky with Slow Fly props :)

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Skyjib Flat 8 v X4

    I dont know how the Cinestar works but on mine, I put it upside down on a flat table and loosen the motor mounts. Then put a square against the face of the bell housings( this works on the 2814's) and just tighten it up.

    Xoar 15 inch props in stock in USA?

    Ever tried the Tiger carbon's? Been hearing good things. Although I dont know the availability of those either. When you start learning to fly better you wont break so many props. Kidding. :)
