    Increase the Servo Refresh Rate , just above the greyed out Servo boxes, and they will become enabled one after the other. Slow rate, high number = more servos can be updated by the FC andy

    The one thing I could say is that at least one of you or your MR would be going home in a bag if you tried a sneaky one at any of the venues. As Gunter said in a recent post the security was intense!

    Not a sneaky one it was an organised shoot direct for LOCOG producing a VT for a course walkthrough. :-) Quite a few hoops (rings) to jump through for that one! should have some clips to put up soon.

    Y6 Builders thread

    Jem ... Don't just think gains, also consider the alignment of the motors. On a Y6 this is critical. We had our Y6 motors a bit out of vertical alignment and had all sorts of yaw problems.

    Mikrokopter Gutted… wkm low voltage crash

    Having been in a very similar situation with our MK Y6 recently I can understand your frustration. In our case it was due to a bad battery cell. I hope my recent contribution to your 'repair fund' helps. cheers andy
