    LiPo Question: One cell doesn't fully charge

    out of 12 batteries I have had 2 now that had this same issue. the first one I ran 3 times and it started charging to a full 4.2. The latest gens ace 4s 4000 I got has a cell which still wont come back up so I think I may return it. Sucks though as I soldered my deans to it already.

    Firmware 5.06 warning

    I have not had any serious issues with the new firmware but the yaw twitch. I am using maytech v1's and avrotos. I dont think they get any hotter than before. I always touch them right after a flight to check and they seem pretty similar. I couldnt find 5.02 to revert back to so I am glad...

    Why cant I bring myself to buy Turnigy Plush esc's?

    Are there any bad esc's? Seems they, and everything else from China, comes from 1 or 2 factories that all rebrand things. My friend came over with his knock-off F450 he got RTF for under $150 with a KK board. Looked exactly like my DJI less the shaved off name plate. I just looked at the...

    Why cant I bring myself to buy Turnigy Plush esc's?

    Ken, are they just visually the same or are they actually manufactured in the same plant? Do the plush esc's REQUIRE flashing to work properly on the DJI? I really dont want to deal with this BS if I dont have to. My maytechs work great so far. I am inclined to get them again but hearing...

    Why cant I bring myself to buy Turnigy Plush esc's?

    I'm willing to give them a chance if it doesnt involve another HobbyKing bad experience. By chance does anyone know the ETA for restocking these?

    Why cant I bring myself to buy Turnigy Plush esc's?

    After waiting for 28 minutes to hear an answer to the ETA on arrival for the turnigy plush esc's from Hobby king, I hung up. My last Hobby King order was a disaster and I promised myself I would never order from them. yet a few people are saying the plushes are the best most economical esc's...

    DJI WKM yaw issues.

    I swapped all the esc's around to get into the new Y6 config. I jacked up the gains and it helps but it also makes doing a smooth turn almost impossible.

    you need to hang a gopro on the tail end of that thing and get some nice aerial shots looking backward.

    I've been fighting the urge to build a Gaui X7 to lift a Red. I wont do it though. :)

    I'm new to prop adapters. How do you know the output diameter?

    I dont know about Suppo's but normally they are 6mm shaft adapters. Graupners, past the 9x5's, have a 8mm hole. Mcmaster does have these aluminum spacers that go from 6-8mm.

    old style x8?

    If you look closely at the pic of the x8 right below the video fo the mktr you will see the x8 in the pic has motors close in on the arms for the tops and further out on the bottoms. I am curious if most flight controllers would accomodate this configuration in X8 mode. Anyone know? Seems...

    What kind of UBEC?

    I cut my power wires coming from the flight controller to the gimbal servos. Then just solder the bec output to the power wires of the servos. It's pretty easy really. I also added the negative from the bec to the ground of the servos as well.

    What kind of UBEC?

    Im using the CC 10amp that everyone else uses. Its great other than it is a PITA to change output voltage! I still havent purchased the usb link to do so and am confined to the default 5 volts. I think it would be best to jack up the voltage to 6 volts for a gimbal to respond quickly.

    Flying in wind

    Today, I took out my new Y6 and gave it some tests in 10-16mph. right off the bat it flew much better than the hex did. I converted the same hex into the Y6 so all the components are the same making it a great test. I wont go into how great the Y6 is as there is already a thread for that. I...

    Wookong wobbles

    They all do this to some extent. totally normal. Turn your gains up and see what happens. Get rid of flexible props if you have them.
