Greetings from sunny South Africa

Hello fellow MRF members! My name is Paul from sunny South Africa! I have just built my first Multirotor, so still learning the ropes. I have been flying RC Heli's for the past year so the jump to Multitrotors was very easy, to fly them that is! :) I have a DJI F550 (stock) with Naza v2. I am in the process of buying a H3 2D, Datalink, Videolink for my Gopor Hero 3+. I have flown 4 times so far and I must say it is awesome!! Flight time is a bit disappointing, using a 4S 3300mAh 25c which gives me 6minutes loaded with Gopro (manually mounted). I have had so many people give different views on what battery to use and what props, it is all confusing!! :) One guy said that 4S is the way to, and another said no, 3S is the way to go and you must use Carbon Fibre props, because the stock plastic ones are rubbish. So this is why I have joined MRF, to pick the minds of those with far more experience and hopefully some real world advice!! :) At the end of the day (for me) I just want long flight times (as far as I am aware at this stage!).

I look forward to chatting to you all, and will hopefully be in a position in the near future to offer some advice to those in the same position that I am in now!! :nevreness:

This is my first flight photo. This was taken just before sunset, unfortunately the Gopro is not that great for bright light. :(
