    The new Draganflyer X4-P

    Seeing that they use the nex, I wonder if you can purchase their Hemingway converter separately?

    HDMI Converter or buy new camera

    If you take that aluminum case off you will shave off 175 of the 200 grams. Yes, I weighed it.

    Motion Sickness with FVP Goggles.

    I was totally bothered by the fatsharks. I sold them immediately realizing I would never be able to fly a pricey toy like this being blind folded. It does mess with your head a bit too.

    hi Can I use Heli version futaba for xaircraft or it has to be plane version

    You can use either on any of the multi rotors from what I know. they ask you to use plane mode so you dont accidentally activate collective parameters. It also takes standard throttle, rudder, aileron, elevator controls so it makes more sense to use plane mode. But on some heli radios...

    Batteries out of stock!

    Yeah, I just bought 4 more gens Ace 4s 4000's from Hobbypartz. but all the others are out. Would have liked 5000's.

    using aluminum frames. ?

    Yeah, the wiring is an issue. I can only think it would be best to run them into the center using lightweight tubes. It will no doubt be slightly heavier than a comparable spoke design. but I wanted to do something different.

    using aluminum frames. ?

    I have an idea for a new frame that uses all aluminum tubing. Has to be aluminum though as it is formed in a certain way that could only be molded by other materials. I have read numerous times that there is bad RFI with aluminum. but MK and many others use it all over the place. Whats the...

    5.04 WKM firmware released

    It is confirmed again for me that indeed my biggest problem was flying at my shop where there is some kind of funky interference. I took the heli to an open field with a DJI familiar friend. We adjusted upward from the stock 100 gains. Around 200-225 and 90-100 for attitude was the right...

    ANyone have any advice on AirFoil quads?

    Watch out for that guy. I would say a big warning to you. I wont go into personal experiences but i have seen some other's experiences on the forums that reminded me of my own. Plus, why spend that much money on a quad when you can have redundancy for less?

    Are Very-good motors really better than pretty-good motors??

    A question i would also like to hear answers to. Bart, I think you have to post that pic, pretty funny and worth framing if you ask me. So what makes a Pletty better? I can see having 3 bearings instead of 2 being a slight advantage but not really needed. The areas I think need to be...

    Skyjib x6 flying RED Scarlet

    How do you setup the ESC's/dist. board?. I'm assuming you are using MK as I dont know anything else that will run more than 8 motors. Very nice!

    5.04 WKM firmware released

    Would anyone care to post their comparative gain changes from the previous firmware to the current one? It seems most were running pretty high numbers, like 250-350. Then DJI gives us the ability to go to 500% but makes the heli run better at lower numbers???

    If money was no option....

    I unfortunately believe every word you say here. At the end of the day you end up with a $50k gas heli with 2 meter blades. not what i wanted really. But facts are facts. We were asked by one of Hollywood's biggest stunt coordinators if we could do it and I said of course but was just a...

    DJI WKM does not switch back from Fail-Safe

    That really freaks me out when I hear this. You are not the first to say this. Sure would be nice to rely on ythat feature even in a non emergency. They should also get rid of the 30 second wait before landing. Just come home now!

    Sony NEX-5n Shutter release?

    Just remember if you use the Gentled that you need to turn on the remote feature on the camera. press the joypad left and you will see the remote icon.

    If money was no option....

    now that I have a little taste of what a HUGE production is like I can see the need for more. I am curious what the pro's experience is with equipment failure from using the common setups most on here are using for light cameras. I.e. avroto/axi, maytech, hobbywing, turnigy,etc. esc's...

    How to deal with orientation?

    wouldnt you want the bright ball on the rear? Assuming it's flying away from you most of the time. Then again, if you fly nose in on the way back I guess I can understand. I would never turn it around when I cant see it personally. Need to hang a beach towel from that thing!
