    Got a question on GoPro and fpv use

    I use the GoPro for FPV and A/P. The quality is limited by you vTx/vRx set up and your goggles. If you can find someone that has one, connect your vTx to the TV out from the GoPro. That will give you a better idea.

    Droiders WMK F460 frame build

    You mean something like this? Sidney posted this a few days ago on RCG. Nice little frame. I have one of the F450 frames with another one coming, I guess I could make either a Hexa or an Octo. I am hoping that DJI sells the components to the Frames at some future date.

    Flight times, temperatures and all that

    I have to disagree with your assessment of Deans under high load. I have used them on a 700E single rotor with 12S with no issues. I will say that I used the "real" Deans not the Cheans that are around. I would never trust my expensive gear to them.

    Mikrokopter MK Transparent cover alternative?

    Go online and do a search for surveillance camera domes. You may be able to come up with some less expensive options.

    Head Play or Fat Shark

    I have the Headplay, got them for $99 at Dell.com some time ago. I have set them up with a 3S Lipo for field use. While they block out most light which makes the lcd's viewable, I still like my vizux 920's with a hat. I like the ability to lift up the goggles and check line of sight. I am...

    Wookong M View and Click to Go.

    Very cool Geoff. I hope you get a chance to try it out soon. I am looking at the 900mHz with 1W! Should provide some great long range piloting.

    Mikrokopter MK Transparent cover alternative?

    They are very flimsy. I painted mine red on the inside, high visibility, but I have cracks all over the bottom where it has be put on and removed many times. I got one of these to replace it: http://www.mikrokopter.us/shop/index.php?route=product/category&path=61 They are much sturdier...

    Camera Mount for DJI F450 Frame

    Jack, you are welcome. Several of us got F450 frames from a UK dealer. Since I blew an esc today and while I am waiting for a replacement, I decided to start a build of the F450 with what I had laying around. Here is what it looks like. RC Timer 2822 motors 1200kV Turnegy Plush 18A escs...

    Camera Mount for DJI F450 Frame

    When I was testing my WMK, I used an ArduCopter frame that I had setting around. I attached the GoPro with velcro and a velcro strap to a CF tab that I attached to the frame with screws. It actually took fairly decent video and with the WKM it was easy to fly FPV. I am thinking that the Naza...

    Same here in Las Vegas. A balmy 32 degrees right now going to 50. Yahoo! Winds will be light, 3-5mph. I need to put my Heli away and get back to my Quad.

    Spraying domes?

    I sprayed my MK dome with acrylic red on the inside. Looks great and was easy to do.

    The Naza manual and software are up on the DJI site. Now if we only had product life would be good. Maybe Santa will make a special trip for us.

    What can I expect?

    Terry: You can engage GPS/ATTI and fly to a position and the craft will hold that position as soon as you release the sticks. The altitude hold is vario depending on your throttle stick position. Lower the stick the craft descends. Center the stick, it holds. Same for raising the stick...

    DJI mounting best practices

    Jason, I would suggest the IMU as close to the CG as possible and hard mounted. I have seen posts attributed to DJI which say to strap it/zip tie it down after it is mounted. The MU, Receiver, PMU are up to you. Make sure you twist the wires to avoid EMI as much as possible. I would not...

    help with choosing the correct frame

    You are correct with Hexa V. Remember to check the center of gravity because of the configuration of the spider hexa. That will significantly effect your flying characteristics if it is not calculated correctly. Looks great! Let us know how it flies.

    CX WKM Build

    Sure, about 2 minutes into the flight, I started to loose power and the Quad dropped to the ground. Fortunately it was in a flower bed and no damage. I normally fly with a transmitter timer so I was not concerned since I had two 4S 4000mAh packs on board. Set it back down on the ground and...
