If the receivers are both compatible with the single transmitter, yes. Read the transmitter's instructions for setting up multiple models. The info may also fall under "model memory".

I am a member, about 30 years worth, and the AMA dropped the ball with Park Flyers, refused to condemn FPV, and still aren't really onboard with MR operations. Like all the others, they have not referenced user education of airspace and the rules governing same. This is something they had an...

Perhaps a state of "don't rock the boat save the last lifeboat for us". However, the dues increase makes for a nice golden parachute.

I find VFR sectional charts to be pretty handy, accurate, with a whole lot of useful information. They work when the batteries are dead too. That Kp index is a nice touch though.

Note the gentleman filing the suit has done so as an individual since no other entity had elected to file by 12/24/15, when he filed. The absence of any following support info from organizations like the AMA and manufacturers is concerning. If this guy puts out a plea for financial or amicus...

That would be a pretty dirty deed.

I thought that's how it had gone down but wasn't sure do to a lack of direct sponsor contacts. The people doing those videos are serious loose cannons.

I'm all for some sensible form of rules for multirotor users, most of which, IMO, would initiate with some level of aeronautical knowledge and operator training, but the knee jerk reaction to things that are very, very light in substantiation make no sense to me. Nor does a government agency...

www.ReadyMadeRC.com and www.GetFPV.com are good sources for FPV stuff. Careful using your work computer for blog sites. Your IT security group could view such use as a security breech. If you're in the Air Force you put a lot at risk using theirs for unauthorized purposes. You probably have...

DAX, We know they are illegal. The question is, who has the money to hire the attorneys after some misinformed LEO stops you while you're flying, takes your info, turns it over to the FAA with a claim of careless and reckless, who then starts an Administrative action, and you have to take off...

Anyone that tries to compete with DJI will find themselves undersold as soon as their pricing structure becomes public. DJI will reduce the prices of their product in a heartbeat, no matter how low that has to be, to assure their stuff outsells the competition. Look at the prices on 3DR's...

Anyone that uses an FC that also uses GPS needs to think carefully before they perform their next software upgrade. If you don't want massively over sized no flight zones imposed upon your flight control system, DO NOT update your software. If it flies good now, it's not broken so don't fix...

This was designed, built, and flown by the same engineering student, sponsored by his father, that mounted a .45 on a multirotor. OTOH, having the HobbyKing logo wasn't all that bright either.

If you spend much time in the corporate world you might believe we became the drones some time ago.

DJI goes to great lengths to assure their flight controllers and software remain proprietary and separate in identity so my guess is you would not be able to cross load the Phantom soft and firmware.

UPS has yet to put a limit on W/h for ground shipments, but you'll have to specify "Ground" to assure you did your due diligence. Boeing, IATA, and the NTSB have not made things easy for us. Another option as time moves on is to arrange large W/h lipo packs as something like 6s-2p where you...

Shells are like candy. We like it but it's not necessary. You can make a shell from just about anything. Inverted Tupperware containers are often popular for this application. Yep, tell them what you are doing and ask for product suggestions.

The LED's are likely12v, give or take a little, so using the receiver as the power source is not an option. Most receivers have voltage limits of between 4.3v and 8v, +/- a little so you can't use that. Ideally, your MW will use a 3s battery, where the voltage is close enough to directly tap...

I was wondering how long the LED strips were and then looked at your frame selection. Looks like you'll have plenty of light on that thing. Good price on pre-wired LED strips. Which one of the three copters are you going to fly/build first?

Good show!
