    Y6 versus Hexacopter....... Advantages one over the other? Chime in!!

    man, it's too bad this isnt a smaller world as it would be great to meet some of you guys in person some day. I've been talking to Bart for over a year and half now and I've never met the guy. I talk to him more than my own wife! Maybe its time to do an international fun fly. How's Hawaii...

    How NOT to fly a hexa DJI

    I was paranoid about other things than people too. Its a coliseum with an open top. If the winds pick up is there some sort of vacuum that occurs if I fly too high that will suck the heli out of the stadium? Also, there are 80,000 cell phones, wireless links everywhere, it's an RFI zoo...

    How NOT to fly a hexa DJI

    I recently had the opportunity to do Super Cross at Oakland Coliseum and although last minute found out I coudlnt do it due to infringing on Speed Network and Gopro, I told them I would NOT fly during the actual event. One ALWAYS has to balance risk to reward! Any pilot needs to plan on what...

    Y6 versus Hexacopter....... Advantages one over the other? Chime in!!

    Y6: no props in view better in wind(my experiences easier to load in car lighter great redundancy hex: advantage is lift/efficiency, thats it. put your camera level and push forward hard, tell me you dont see props! This is why Bart makes the XY8! best of all worlds. The efficiency thing is...

    Finally for all unhappy S800 users - antivib upgrade

    Similar to my batwing camera mount for the f450/550, they do indeed stiffen up the arms and help with vibration a lot. I'd be surprised if these didnt help on the s800 as well.

    Hoverfly Be still?

    I think someone just posted this recently confirming that the Hoverfly does its gyro initialization when you arm it, not plug it in.

    TBS Discovery Leg Mod

    I thought the gopro went on top of the lower frame plate. Why would you need to lift it up? Just curious as I make extensions for the f450 but never thought to market them towards discos. Check out irisaerial.com products.

    Hoverfly HFPro, Failsafe?

    correct. AFAIK, there is no failsafe even with the gps. You can manually RTH, but it is not self landing nor triggered automatically by low voltage. What you can do however is set up your radio where it will activate RTH when it loses signal. I am too scared of AH to answer that question.

    4 Cell Versus 3 Cell

    I like 4s as it spins the prop faster which makes jello disappear and do better in wind. You can use 10" graupners on 4s since they are thinner props than the stock ones. This has been beaten to death on this forum, look around a bit and you will see the same responses all over. Since you...

    there went the neighborhood

    I can just see the look on the guys face when you say "I'm just gonna see how fast I can fly this up and down the street real quick."

    Hoverfly HFP on Ice esc's

    I've never had good results asking questions on the zendesk. You're better getting answers here. If you're motors are hot with 2826 and 14" APC SF something is wrong. You're not lifting enough weight that you should be pushing the limits with that set up. Try swapping the motor with another...

    there went the neighborhood

    I can't believe someone trusts you to fly that. Don't they know you're a madman behind the sticks? Keep it under 60 ok. :)

    Hoverfly HFP on Ice esc's

    I had this happen and it was a bad esc. I had to do a few motor swaps to believe it. When did you get a cinestar?

    Best set up for sony FS700 + other questions

    Weight is relative. Thats disc loading. As i always make the same analogy, give a pigeon the wings of a condor and it will glide well but when it gets hit by a small gust of wind it gets carried away. A fly can somehow fly through 20mph winds, right? I wouldnt base your purchase off of...
