From watching the video's the tips of the props are still in view so while the arms help, they don't remove them from view completely.

I've ordered 3 turnigy 5000 mah batteries from Hobby King as well as aa nimh rechargeables and other items....depending on the warehouse they ship from depends on delivery time...other than having to wait a little longer all of my orders were perfect.

Thanks again kloner....great advice. I'm already pricing the Tiger 2216 900kv motors. The new Graupners should be here in a week or so. I'll fly with them for a few days and then will probably order the motors. I'm sure I'll be asking more questions when I'm ready to get into FPV as from what...

Thanks Kloner. I'm looking at the tiger 2216's. 2 questions, would the 800 be better than the 900? I seem to recall reading that the lower the kv number the better for lifting more weight. The second is that they have a 3mm shaft, do they sell a 3mm to 8mm adapter so I can use the new Graupners...

I just ordered a set of 10" Graupners for the 550 as I've heard good things about them. I'd like to get 12-14 minutes of flight time if possible. I know I'm asking for a miracle. I'm thinking about looking at different landing gear and camera gimbal to lower the weight. I'm wondering if 2...

Thanks Kloner. I just ordered the 10" Graupners so should I get rid of them and switch to 9" props instead and go 4s? Any motors you suggest that will fit the bolt pattern for the 550 arms?

All, I need some help with trying to get better flight times for my DJI F550. I've searched the forums and found a ton of different threads and since I'm new I'm still learning so please go easy on me. If I forget to post a piece of critical information just let me know. DJI F550 Stock Motors...

Not sure why you would need to charge the gopro while flying? I use a hero hd2 and I can easily record 1 1/2 hours of video....my flight times usually only lasts about 9 minutes. Not sure what the free port on the RX was designated for but I wouldn't try it again if it caused my multi to crash.

I cut my mast down almost 3/4's of the way because with the landing gear it was too tall to close the case I got for it. I changed the settings in the Naza software and recalibrated it....works perfectly.

I have to say I'm brand new to the multirotor world and Robert was great answering my questions over the phone or via email. Once I placed my order with him I had my F550 within a few days and he was more than willing to help answer any questions after my purchase since the instructions from DJI...

Thanks for the input 2tall...I'll also be using a gopro hero 2 and I shoot at 1080p medium. Let me know how the bec works as I'll pick one up if it helps. Mike

All, Currently I have a DJI Naza with GPS on a F550. I wanted to get an inexpensive 2 axis gimbal so I ordered an X468 XT with landing gear from RC Drones. I'm going to order 2 HS-65MG servo's for the gimbal. Do I need a BEC for the servos or can I just plug them into and power them from the...

Thanks for the answer, figured that's what they were, just wanted to make sure.

Here's a picture of them so you can see what I'm trying to describe. They fit the bottoms of the motors perfectly so I'm pretty sure they're supposed to go between the motor and the plastic arms.

Brand new to the forums and also multirotors but I tried searching for an answer and can't seem to find one. Here's the question - I just purchased a DJI F550 kit a few weeks ago. I sat down to start building it this evening and after unpacking everything I noticed there are 6 red, round...
