Will do Jay!....Ups and Downs happen....hopefully the DOWNS aren't too severe...LOL. The "quest for knowledge" should NEVER stop as with anything in life :)......we will all soldier on and EVENTUALLY we will all be closer to getting that "perfect flying platform"!!! Mike :)

Hi Guys!!! WOW....what a difference a weekend "off" makes when checking the forum! SOOOOO SORRY for your crashes!!!! We got 14" of snow at the house and I was (and still am) battling a bout of stomach flu. Doc put some IV's in me this AM and I feel WAY better! Dehydration is a ***** even...

+1 for sure on my end!

Welcome DI, If you aren't a late college attendee/student then you may or may not know what came to my mind..."Disco Inferno" by the Trammps!!! LOL Anyhow...I think you are going about this the right way. Some folks may say don't waste your dough on a "toy" but I did just that to help me...

Warmest Welcome's Neil!!!! You will find some awesome information here! Cheers, Mike :)

Thanks for putting the vids up Paul!!!! Much appreciated!

Corey, Yes I agree with you on the lift of the rotors (ESC will detract from the downforce from the props) but there are always trade-offs.....I have seen many folks PREACH about keeping the ESCs cool and others that do not care. I would think, again assumptions, that keeping the ESCs cool...

Hi Guys! Your new motors from Paul look kind of similar to what mine look like (Sunnysky 2216 900KV)....the prop adapter on the sunny's have three little threaded bolts that attach it to the bell. The prop adapters came with both a nut and the "pointy thingy"...LOL that goes on the top. I...

Welcome Phil! Can't wait to see your pictures of the quad! Do you have some videos of your bird in action! Cheers, Mike :)

Thanks Bart! Did you also move the ESCs closer to the motors so that the prop wash will help cool the ESCs as well?

Here are a couple of videos from Bruce in New Zealand (RCModelReviews)....the first video gives a good overview of the camera and at the end you can see his results from his buddy flying an electric plane with the cam mounted on top. The second video shows the testing Bruce did to illustrate...

Good thoughts on the little butane soldering device! Never thought about that before but makes perfect sense!!!! Bart, why did you elect to start going with the bullet connectors? I think I am going to start with them and then if I need to cut a few grams I would do that. Excellent idea on...

Way to go Corey!!!!! Can't wait to see how the flights turn out! I am already nervous about my maiden flight.....all my parts should be here by the end of the week from RTFQuads and I am really excited about the legs and batwing that I ordered from IrisAerial (Yuri is a great guy and I would...

Monster, I cannot comment, YET, on the Mobius Action Cam and how it does on a multirotor aircraft. I can say that it is a brilliant little camera for sure! I have been using it primarily as a "Dash Cam" for when I do long drives in the mountains, I use it to record my "track days" when I take...

Welcome Patrick! I am new to the MR stuff and am looking forward to seeing you around here! Cheers, Mike :)
