Love it! And yes!

What was gone? Did someone steal your quad? Glad you sorted it!

Up to you. I use the short one I think. As long as its away from other electronics you'll be fine. My Naza one is very short for transport and some people just strap the GPS disc straight on the frame or arms. Coolio?

Hey hey. Good, a Spektrum man. So, binding. Quite easy really. First in the assistant have your 3 position switch light up the failsafe option. Turn everything off. Insert bind plug into receiver and power up. Remove bind plug. Your transmitter sticks should be centred including throttle and 3...

See, now that's a proper answer! Not just 'I don't see how it could...' Etc. As you said, you can find anything on the web to support either view point which is why it's so important for you to give a good answer in these threads. I rely on the posts in this forum to guide me. The manual for...

And don't turn off your controller in flight! As above check everything on the assistant first. If using Spektrum remember to rebind with failsafe set.

Best explanation is that the antenna acts as a resistor. So far all web pages I've read confirm not to power on a vRX (yes, and a vTX) without antennas attached. This is common knowledge and I don't know why you guys are arguing it. Please power up your vRX without antennas attached and leave...

And the warning that comes in every receiver manual I have about not powering up without antennas attached can be ignored then?

Ha! Maroons! Gotta love that bloody spell checker.

I meant a proper answer to my lame explanation. You did make a valid point Pete. I wondered that myself. My vRx was about 6 months old. ImmersionRC Fatshark rx. Broke Fatshark patch antenna but used it for 30 mins anyway. After that severely reduce range regardless of new antennas. New Rx and...

Seriously? All the warnings about not powering up without the antenna attached are just nonsense then? Without the antenna there's nowhere for the power to go so it builds up and pop. At least that's how I see it. Anyone else want to chime in with a proper answer?

Hey guys, I just moved to an awesome new place. Found these lakes just opposite. And yes, it is England! Although it looks like California... Just hard mounted Gopro as usual. First time flying over water so took it easy. This version is Youtube stabilised. Cheers!

I had this problem when my patch antenna broke and I didn't realise so the receiver essentially was connected without an aerial. This fried the receiver and I only got 10m with various antennas. New rx and all good. Have you powered up without an antenna connected and damaged your receiver?

That video was great. And safely done. Where exactly did you think they flew over a crowd? For the concert they flew from a safe zone next to the concert, you can see it. In the UK we can fly next to a crowd up to 1000 people. Looked a few more in that video but its still Wild West territory in...

Is everything okay Denny?

Here here! Well said! What does work and what should work are often different.

I use some Velcro or a cable tie with more PU gel underneath to wrap around the item. The Milton mod I believe it is called.

I'm not sure 2/3mm I think. Whatever feels right. You want it firm but not rigid. Squishy but not wobbly. Cool?

I second that remark. Alas we're not millionaires (I assume SMP makes millions)!

The DJI recommendation is for a bare kit with no payload. If payload you up prop. Thought you'd know this Deanot.
