    Hoverfly Can a Hoverfly Sport be positioned on the airframe away from the center?

It's a "Stedicam" type rig where the center is occupied by the camera stabilization balance rig. So the FC...

    Could use a little advice! Will a 30 amp ESC work with this motor?!

    Hey guys, So by trading and hustling and getting rid of a bunch of smaller quad stuff I have ended up with some gear to assemble a "test" rig.

    Finally I have a small quad that can record jello Free GoPro footage!

    SUCCESS! After quite a while I finally realized a goal. That goal was to have a small mobile quad for a GoPro 3 that I'm not afraid to get into "sticky" situations, fly a bit faster and even "risk" if the shot is right. After sourcing the stuff I wanted, I started on the quest. Two frames, 3...

    Hoverfly Calibrate ESC's or?? Using HF Sport. (Choppy Throttle)

    Ok.. so I built up a smaller rig to be able to do some indoor filming in tighter spaces. (A print show wants me to do a production floor run from above capturing the LONG 6 color presses) I built this guy around a HF Sport board flashed with the latest AV rom. I pulled the 20 amp ESC's from...

    EMP Shot Down?!?! Hey Bill, strange things are a foot at the Circle K!

    So in late October I was flying a cool sport quad I have (the RCLogger Eye 650) and filming some footage with a Gopro trying to get a hard mount that would not produce jello. So I'm up flying and I'm at around 150 - 200 feet. I pan the rig 100 deg and it stops working starts to fall, flips over...

    Hoverfly (Gen 1) HoverFly Pro - DPCAV Low Pass filter - Where to get?

    Hey guys, Anyone have a link to a place to get the proper DPCAV Low Pass filter for the first version of the Hoverfly Pro? I received my used Pro board form this guy and he did not include the filter. Also, can I set the rig up without the filter just for set up purposes? Or is it just a bad...

    Hoverfly Hoverfly Sport "reset"?!

    Hey guys, Ok, I just received my second Hoverfly Sport from a trade deal, and I think I know why the guy was so excited to trade. It looks like he has flashed the sport to a different rom, which is why he thought it did not work. I downloaded the Hoverfly Firmware client and attempted to...
