    Phobotic Centerpiece Brushless Gimbal Controller

    I think it's the Famous Hobby gimbal mentioned in the post @violetwolf above.

    DJI Inspire 1 Pro against GH4 - 4K videos

    Those seem like some serious considerations for anyone looking to use this as a "pro" rig. Most importantly, the tuning. Seems to me the other issues are all annoying, but 'wasted time' related. While still a hurdle, these can be overcome by someone who doesn't use it on a...

    2015 NAB News: Blackmagic Micro Cinema Cam, Tiny, Drone-Specific Super16 RAW Camera

    Good attitude! Is it possible you could be both virtuous AND batsh*t crazy? :)

    2015 NAB News: Blackmagic Micro Cinema Cam, Tiny, Drone-Specific Super16 RAW Camera

    I think the other version, without the MR specific features, that was announced at the same time has been available. It definitely shows some promise - but the delay has been quite long. While I agree it's better to release when they're confident in its performance - one wonders what's up with...

    XAircraft Is Xaircraft Technical support gone? I need help.

    Keep in mind that the APM flight controllers (including Pixhawk) have always been based on open source - so technically, there really is no "clone." 3DR has headed up much of the decelopment - but they do not "own" it. So cheaper versions of the Pixhawk style FC may be good quality - but may...

    That's great to hear, hopefully this works out. Please let us know how it goes. Love when the member can get other members out of a jam before the companies can! :)

    That was me. BuddyRC definitely had a direct line to them as of a few months ago.

    He's no longer in business. Looks like best/only bet is to try to contact xaircraft directly.

    New guy to Multi Rotors

    Welcome aboard. I think you'll find a pretty cool and helpful crew around here. Have fun and fly safe!

    XAircraft Is Xaircraft Technical support gone? I need help.

    I'm assuming you have tried (and re-tried) calibrations to correct the issue? Just figured I'd ask. Sadly the tech support is very limited, if not completely non-existent. Who did you purchase the SXs from? I upgraded an SX fairly recently to Octo through BuddyRC. There were some issues...

    "Drone" Radio Live, 20-January-2016, 9PM, Back to Basics, Blade Chroma Recap

    I have a feeling the viewers are protesting with their silence over the color change :)

    Anybody know who was filming Dakar Rally?

    I would imagine that Dakar would be a tough environment to work a drone in. Scenes of bikes/trucks left dead in the sand makes me think take off/landing could cause havoc with sand and dust in the motors. Wish my DVR had picked up the footage. It never disappoints.

    Second configuration

    I'm slowly recognizing that every product I use has a warning from the state of California.... :)

    550MM Turkey "H" build with templates

    I think the thickness is typically a bit more with the G10 to match strength. I ended up using 1/8" which was probably overkill, but readily (and cheaply) available. I got it from this guy: http://stores.ebay.com/NorVa-Plastics Cool guy and great to deal with.

    Increasing Flight Time of Hexacopter

    Make sure you're basing it on the new larger capacity battery. 2700mah is way too small for a craft that size.

    550MM Turkey "H" build with templates

    It's fiberglass. Also called garolite. It comes on various versions - so the "10" is just one particular type most often associated with these frames. Any multirotor frame that is not CF would be G10.

    Increasing Flight Time of Hexacopter

    I love that the brand name is Generic :) I think the quality of the motors Is the most likely culprit. I ran an f450 with the 1000kv motors from turnigy (same/similar to yours) with fairly bad results. A better motor will be more efficient - resulting in better flight times. If/when you...

    Study on bugs in drone software

    I'm not a developer, but I'll follow your results with baited breath. Good luck with the study!

    Increasing Flight Time of Hexacopter

    Not sure what you mean by "two separate dean connector packs," but I would suggest that you replace the Traxxas with a deans on the battery - so there are only 2 connectors, and no turnaround to deal with the traxxas plug. Raw deans plugs are cheap.
