Ziv, welcome to MRF... I think everyone here would benefit from pictures.... even though some are borderline NSFW lol...o_O

Nice pictures of that frame, looks very basic though, and interesting esc placement especially for U8 type motors... Hmmm, U8 170kv 6s x12 is max thrust of about 125lbs... I'm a fan of the x12...

That is supposed to be the MoviXL... Don't know about the MR frame...

Any pictures of this interesting vibration isolated core? Sounds like a good platform so far, glad to see the portability is as good as promised...

Helluva first post mate...

Use Channel 8 for retracts... also read this. It will help http://multirotorforums.com/threads/basic-setup-instructions-for-frsky-taranis-x8r-and-naza-m-v2.15482/

I have a love hate relationship with servocity... it gets expensive, their servo mounts are top notch though. I have built some random stuff off that site... lol

KDE and SuperX, I like where this thread is headed...

Talked to ZM about beta testing the new dragon frame, very intrigued by their design... love the modular aspect.

The confusion is if you are using it in D8 1-8 mode then the 8 SBUS channels are mirrored on the 8 outputs. if you want separate 9-16 you will need to select it when you bind the Rx. Most of the time I just bind like this and pick a channel I'm not using anyway... then no need to mess with 9-16...

Most of all of us found this^^^ out the hard way, @Lynn Deppe, you should be lucky it wasn't more expensive I have purchased quite a few products from HK that were far less than satisfactory. Haven't ordering anything from them in at least 2 year but I did get a great deal on a Turnigy...

DYS BLheli esc line have treated me very well so far, and run much cooler than the ztw spiders did (full disclosure it was different motors as well) although same size motor and esc

Already have 8x U8-170kv, just need HV esc for them, and strengthen the current frame they are on...

What are your ESC temps?

I know it's a little late but maybe look into some of the 250 power distribution boards, they will have 5v out for FC and usually 12v out for lights or Video Tx... Worth the weight in my opinion, probably a weight saving over 2 separate UBEC...
