    3D printed brushless Gimbals - Info exchange

    Very nice Boris! I still don't understand how using a conventional brushless motor has the accuracy to operate a gimbal. It baffles me everytime I see this. Wouldn't the accuracy be somewhat defined by the amount of poles?

    30 MRs fly in formation, must see

    All that work just to make a star trek emblem sit there? I dont get it. I'm sure this is exactly what all those people that hate drones think of when they refer to the skies being covered in drones! Hmmm. I'm more impressed with the little drones that can avoid moving obstacles.

    Al, to be clear, I am in no need to become an industry spokesperson. If you have or are working on the infrastructure to give "us" a voice, then great. Since you already have the media's attention, have spoken with the FAA on ???, and own the worlds best flight controller company, I would say...

    Hoverfly A flight nightmare with a happy ending ...

    You're gonna have to get new esc's and a different radio to really isolate it, assuming it's not the FC itself. Are the esc's hot when it lands?

    I dont think the FAA is after FPV rc cars. :) It's not an attempt to make a new forum or chat area. The idea is to get content that shows that we are not trying to bomb or spy on people at all. Put all this content on one youtube account that will get the hits. The main difference I see...

    Teco's Carbon Core Octo 1000mm build tread !

    it just depends what you want to lift. That will be more than enough for the standard gimbal, gh2/3, t2i,nex,cx760 type camera. but even a dslr with a nice lens with a av200/360 can start weighing a lot. Plus, those graupners dont make a lot of lift at all. they are just really nice props...

    http://www.theverge.com/2013/3/19/4120548/calm-before-the-swarm-domestic-drones-are-here I wonder if DJI knows how much they are about to change this for everyone.

    As I was searching for images on google for that logo I just threw up there, I typed in the word drone and saw most of what comes up are NOT helis, they are military drones or sci-fi drones. The less we use that nomenclature the less likely someone on the other side will see an associated photo...

    Thanks, i think. :) We havent even got started, this is just the TIP. We have to get a Head of the game. We accept everyone. Even FAA members can become a FAG member! Right, ok. Perhaps taking this too far. For the record I am not homophobic and I actually support any good parent being...

    Ok, great, lets use that. Grab a camera and start interviewing everyone you know who does this. Show scenery that is non threatening and beautiful. Like 99% of what we already do on here. maybe just leave out car commercials and indoor flying in public buildings, etc. I'll try and get some...

    Filmers against Government. Ok, maybe a bad name. more like CAD. Cinematographers against drones. I was thinking if we start a group and get some viral videos going under one name we can start a demonstration of what the majority of us really do this for. There are clearly a huge group of...

    I think your r44 takes much larger blades than that. :)

    Do you remember what the main difference was between the 2? I cant.

    Orange JR receiver reviews?

    makes you wonder what costs $170 in that box. Probably nothing and it probably still comes from China. Do those orange rx come with a remote satellite? thanks for the responses. I may have to give it a try.

    Teco's Carbon Core Octo 1000mm build tread !

    IMHO 2814's are too small for a heli that large. You will be limited to a 1.5-2lb camera. If i had a frame that big i would be on 6s with 3515's and 14" prop minimum. Thats the whole point in having a large frame, so you can swing larger props. Then again, maybe a 1000mm isnt even big enough...
