    Wedding photog smashes groom with Phantom

    It seems more and more the agency's are picking up the viral video crap and turning it into news. More hits the bigger the story and every time we post these videos showing what a dumbass looks like, it just adds fuel to the viral fire.

    Hoverfly Workshop's Hoverfly Tri-Copter

    Jeff, on your T6, is it as wide prop to prop as it is long oc of front arms to center of rear motor? I'm thinking of doing a y6 and wondering if rear arm can be a bit shorter than the fronts (it would fit in a peli case I have).

    Totally lost on eBay gimbal?

    I had a martinez board that would go berserk when I plugged it in, ended up having the tilt motor plugged in to the roll and vice-a-versa. Maybe try swapping your plugs? Also make sure your imu on the camera tray is facing the right way.

    Totally lost on eBay gimbal?

    You put your camera in the gimbal and position it so it's balanced in all directions (tilt to the right it stays, tilt to the left it stays, tilt down varying degrees it holds position) before you power up the gimbal? They flop like the fishes without any weight in the cradle.

    Totally lost on eBay gimbal?

    The ebay listing says Alex Mos board but at 99 bucks for gimbal and controller I'd guess it's a martinez knockoff running Alex M firmware.

    Quad spinning and not getting Air. Video Link inside.

    Drew have you got into naza assist with it yet? I'm guessing you have, when you did the sticks calibration screen and got all your sticks to turn green did you center your throttle or did you leave it in the down position. Another dumb question for you, the new naza take off deal where it...

    Anyone buy a PC laptop lately?

    a simple memory upgrade went really strange for me, I'll stick to my macbook for everything except invoicing and rc related programming and those duties go to a cheap HP winbook. Don't need to worry about a juggernaut of an editing machine.

    Quad spinning and not getting Air. Video Link inside.

    That makes sense. What kind of beeping are you hearing, like a steady beep....beep....beep, or faster. You're turning on your Tx and moving the throttle stick to the top, then power the esc, wait for the cell count beeps, then you should get one loan beep, at that point move throttle stick all...

    How are you powering your esc's? You've got to have them plugged in to your throttle channel one at a time. No naza in the loop.

    I went the programming card route for some exceed rc 40 ampers. When I plugged in the esc's, they were all pretty much where they needed to be and only thing I changed was the ring tone, but I changed it back to stock later so the card was kind of a bust. You can program esc's without a card...
