I'm in!

oh yeah, I forget about that core thing. So if you're flying 2 of those prius battery's, what are you weighing out at like 3k? How's the gimbal like the big props?

I didn't know the built in Alex M board could run on 6s. What kind of gains are you running with those big props? sounds cool when it passes by!

Nic, your gimbal will perform different on a 3s vs. 4s. You're going to have to get familiar with the arduino platform and learn how to flash your board. This is a tedious process for most but it's the most important. I've got 3 martinez boards all from rctimer, every one performs different...

I may be way off base here but from your picture it looks like your radio isn't turned on. did you move both sticks down and out or any one of the crazy csc moves in the naza manual?

Your receiver will get it's power from the naza which is getting it's regulated (5v) power from the led unit. errr-what flygirl said

From the DJI website: "For fresh player is recommended to wash props on 2nd and 4th week of month to ensure successful happy clean flight." some guys go all out and use the professional grade ArmorAll, I just use a wet paper towel (make sure you do the under side also). JK-prop...

You've got to watch how forward you get your gimbal, brushless doesn't like prop wash, those pics are just that gimbal clipped onto the legs for photo purposes. If your copter is pretty well balanced and vibe free, you could ditch the damper business and mount direct. A lot of guys are...

This is what roughly 290mm looks like with the pos errr asp gimbal mounted on a wire rope damper that's the same height as the stock rubber ball dampers. I don't think a stock 550 would lift the 300mm and a larger camera. The up and down adjustment on the gimbal shown is about 2/3rd's up, you...

Welcome Terry! I remember back in the mid 70's when Fountain Hills first opened, my dad drove us from Phoenix out there to see a coworker wo had bought one of the first units in the first phase. I thought wtf would anyone want to live way out here? You just finished the 450 and now you're...

I've got the asp gimbal too and it fits the 200mm (won't lift it, but it fits) but quadframes also sell a 215mm. The 300 is really freekin big and heavy.

I'm using the 200mm lg set from quadframes-http://www.quadframe.us/collections/landing-gear/products/200mm-clearance-landing-legs you sure can tell it's carrying the weight though.

Hi Hal, the wires come that way so you can run them down the arm (usually inside an arm) to esc's that are placed inside the body of the copter. The 550 doesn't need it, I usually desolder the bullets, cut the wire to length, resolder the same bullets. You'll also have to auger out the center...

Federal emergency officials demanded a Colorado company working with authorities ground its hand-launched drones helping to assess flood damage around Boulder... http://rt.com/usa/fema-drones-colorado-flood-943/ Here's hoping all our Colorado members are safe and dry!

Powered up on the bench and monitors plugged in to check, all tested perfect. I have no intention of building a base station bigger than I'm currently using so this needs to go to someone who'll use it. Asking 65.00 usd PP shipped to your door so long as your door resides in the continental...

At a campaign event today, someone tried to get a photo of Angela Merkel by using a cheap drone. According to the AP, the police demanded that the 23-year old operating the drone quickly land it (citing safety). After briefly being detained, police decided the man was harmless, and they let him...

LOL!! Exactly!

How ironic that this episode should result in BOOMING Phantom sales for dji. Tell me this isn't going to be like some weird kind of chum for dumasses... I guess the stuff my wife's company did was for one of the entertainment shows.

If I were going to try and fix a 5 dollar part, I would use a splint along with epoxy. But why not wait, besides, you need a new tx battery anyhow, just go eat a sandwich and wait for parts, sometimes it's whachta gotta due.
