Dave what's the difference between the 2 versions? Ross

Thanks for the heads up Bart, never heard of them until your mention. Have had a quick look, they seem reasonable, if not a touch cheaper than HK!!! But the description of stuff is slightly lacking, but Im sure I can get around that one. I see they are US based, which means more than likely to...

Well today I had to use live support & exchanged conversation with a guy called Ricky. They are getting so bad with dispatch that my whole octo build has ground to a halt:( Glad i use credit card via paypal, they know I love doing chargebacks :p Ross

This is starting to sound like fun Bart ;) I'm actually getting worried myself, because you have so much experience with MR aircraft & I have none....what chance do I stand to get my octo off the deck this side of xmas I wonder ;) Stick with it mate, I bet you have it sorted in no time. Ross

Thanks Gary, will check out the link & of course would get great enjoyment out of helping others...thats what it's all about. I am here because I need help.same as everyone on here ;) One point Gary, on that form it asks for a grid reference of where I will be flying...does that mean i have to...

They didnt start flying until 12 on the Saturday due to the heavy rain. I havent been inside the show ground for 2 years now, £45 is just too much, especially when on a tight budget. You should have hung on until 12, the sun came out & the flying was great...also NO heat haze as the air was to...

The truth is the truth Bart, great job you are doing. So If I'm following you correctly, you have to programe each ESC from a receiver before connect to to I2C>PWM & FC? Ross

Dave it was the flight & 5 questions from the BMFA handbook, was going to do my B test as well, but the wind picked up in the afternoon, so mission aborted until next calm day ;) Ross

Shawn, how does the MK power loop thing work, surely both thier power rails are a loop? Ross

They look great Bart, shame I cant do that to my CS8...my camera mount is controlled bu a camera op & she has to be able to swing the camera, but for a fixed forward camera this is great. Ross

Gary, yesterday I obtained my BMFA "A" cert with my trex600, it was quite a walk in the park with 3MPH winds. So what would I have to do next as regards the CAA? Regards Ross

Hi Wayne, What flight sim are you using? If you can fly a few of the helis then this MR aircraft stuff will be fine....from what I'm told anyway ;) Ross

PM on the way Ross

I sent you an email Geoff from your website re MK flight controller! Hope you had a great wedding ;) Ross

Im using a I2C, with 60A ESC's (Turnigy plush), which are ordered but waiting for HK to send them out :( Ross

I agree, why didnt they add the last parts??? I can only put it down to MK having an escape goat if anything goes wrong...you soldered it!!!! Ross

It is VERY expensive for what you get, but the quality is good. Updates seem to be free at the moment & I'm waiting on some new design parts arriving anyday. Rob & Linda ALWAYS answer my emails wthin 12 hours, so that sort of support is worth it's weight in gold. Ross

The foam I think is like cavity wall insulation, the motors are emax GT2820/07 Ross

Oh yes......this is such a great improvement, well done guys Ross

Have you seen my soldering ;) ;) bullet connectors are about half the weight of my solder joints ;) Dont forget the octo has 19Kg of thrust! Ross
