    Can I run Emax 12 amp ESC on 4S?

    Hu Guys, I am building a MiniQuad 250. I have everything to start building. I was wondering if I can run the Emax 12amp ESC on 4S. It says 2-3S on the pack but I hear people flying them on 4s: more punch and longer flight time. Thanks! :-)

    Questions Multistar 30 amps ESC

    Dear all, I recently had to rebuild my quad after a very nasty crash. I lost orientation in FPV and was going too far. Hit the RTH but unfortunately there was a tree in the flight path: burnt out all the motors and the ESC's. I ordered the same motors: SunnySky 980kv (they are a dream)...

    ESC Calibration in PPM mode

    Dear All, Normally when you do an ESC calibration in traditional mode (in stead of PPM) you plug the ESC directly in the Rx in the throttle channel. I have my Naza setup in PPM. Does anyone know in which channel I need to plug the ESC to calibrate? (I am using channel 8 for ppm on my GR-24...

    ESC Throttle calibration

    Guys, I am a bit puzzled here. I have set up my quad. It goes like a house on fire! However, there is a bit of a wobble when flying. It does not hamper flying but it is a bit annoying.

    Connecting a Voltmeter

    Hi Guys, Maybe a stupid question. I have ordered a voltmeter (pic). I will connect directly to my power distribution board. However, what connector should I put on the wire end to connect this Voltmeter. All I have are JST's, XT's, Dean and bullets. I do not know what to do with all these pins...

    Advice upgrading from 3S - 4S on Custom Frame

    Hi All, I am a beginner. However, I have been getting the hang of my quadcopter and it is fun to fly. I bought it of a guy who has built it himself. It has a carbon frame and a Naza Lite controller. Makes it very stable for beginners in GPS Attitude Mode. When I lose control I just let it...
