Heya everyone, I am trying to setup FPV on my s900... starting with a small camera and gimble for now, I have the H4-3D and a her04 black ( $106.61 on Quibids ).. I know its not a common setup for a S900, but i am having issues getting it setup. Was wondering if there is anyone who knows a...

I am planning on building another smaller unit.I might look at getting the one you mention. Does look like good practice. I just want to finish this one 1st... I am about to start adjusting my gains. Flying at default so far.. Still need a camera & gimble.. Im enjoying myself so far. And look...

Im taking it slow. I am so worried about breaking this one, I am being very careful... I think i will build a quad for a fun machine. This one is a lot of money up in the air. but im getting used to it. Crash count still at 0

Got my battery and took flight today. No crashes yet.. was worried with a 16000 mah battery with no counterweight on other side was way out of balance. but flew pretty nice.. All I did was hover and hold position landing and taking off. After 10 mins of flying I put it away untill tomorrow. Now...

I finally got dropbox installed on computer and can put up pics. Now, its pretty standard S900 I'm guessing but i am curious as to what to do with the antenna cables hanging from the A2.. I have all I need to fly setup now except batteries.. and a charger... I was thinking a 16000 mah battery...

It's going good. I have pics. Just need to find a place to host.. Headed to my shop.in a few mins. Will put up the pics..

I appriciate the info. I look foward to posting a build as I go pics. I'm sure I will make mistakes that you pros can help me catch. Excited to start.. That little copter looks like fun. Might get one for practice with fpv till I setup the large one.. Thanks again. All info is appriciated

I figured on building this one slowly after the initial setup, doing fpv, gimble, dslr.. etc.. I think i might build a quad beater for training before I try doing anything to crazy. But the s900 is coming. Had already put the deposit in.. shold be here friday or saturday.. who knows.. maybe...

I intend to do weekend flying and photography as a hobby. I work with large yachts currently and have an "in" with a few captains. I would imagine there is money to be made doing aerial photography for these boats while underway.. I have not flown anything large yet.... I am thinking that will...

So, I got ahold of a DCI dealer who was able to get me what i needed.. and got talked into a S900 with A2, with 4114 pro motors.. I think i got a good price at $2050.00.. I might still someday make a f550.. but for now this is the direction i am going...now i just need everything else... any...

Im not sure, but now that I am looking.. looks like a DJI Power Distribution Board comes with the e600 set.. One less thing to get.

Okay, as promised.. I have put together a "shopping list"... I would appriciate any feedback and comments.. I have not placed an order yet.. so there is time to change and add items.. I dont have a FPV listed, as I am not sure what to get there. I have seen a few that work with Ipad, but I'm an...

Ebay has a set of 6 for 95 dollars. plus 5 dollars shipping. seemed decent. I am still listing things out. Had to work till 10pm last night so didnt get anything done. Hopefull today i will have my list set up.... For now, back to work. Peter

I will post my entire order for the build, Once complete. And I would appriciate any feedback from you pros. I'm a painter by trade, and was planning on making a body to cover up the center and part way along the arms. Will probably have questions once I start that process too. I plan on...

I think I'm kinda planning a f550 kit with the 50mm longer aluminum arms.. wanted to put e600's in. Been reading it should improve flight time. Still looking into flight controller and gps. There is a combo kit for 300 dollars but not Sure of quality. So, kinda doing a f550.. but starting with...
