    BNUC-s vs. RPQ-s?

    BNUC-s vs. RPQ-s?

    I also am undecided between BNUC-s and RPQ-s, or I was, but after reading this discussion I have come to the conclusion that even though the RPQ-s appears at first glance to be more stringent and more expensive in the long run. I would rather have that than the potential of lost revenue as a...

    CarbonCore Cortex....Owners' Thread

    I also considered purchasing from carbon core, but given what I've heard here I'm thinking to reconsider. Sounds like he's a bit of a snob, not interested in hobbyists, the whole bloody industry was founded on hobbyists! And I'm sorry, but the hell kind of customer support is he providing? Read...

    Co-Axial naming conventions

    I agree with IrisAerial. X4 for quad, Y3 for tri. X8 for quad coax and Y6 for tri coax. Hex is a hex and I've yet to see a hex12. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    New Hex crashed in the lake

    In this instance I filmed in 1080p @25fps and taking photos at the same time. The Go Pro is set to wide. I have a video switcher fitted and flick between my sony 600TVL WDR cam and the Go Pro.

    New Hex crashed in the lake

    It's just a recreational area I think. Not sure about the brown patch, possibly caused by a bonfire one Guy Fawkes night. It was filmed in Penistone, South Yorkshire, UK on the edge of the Pennines. Contrary to popular belief South Yorkshire and Yorkshire in general is a very green county...

    S1000 Video by Aerial Media Pros

    Will be interesting to see how you get on with the Z15-5D. I'm seriously considering investing in a Vulcan which should be capable of carrying one. Your thoughts on its ease of use and quality of results would be interesting to hear. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    New Hex crashed in the lake

    Flight time is closely tied to the lipo type and capacity/motor/prop combination and the overall take off weight of your UAV. I have the same as yourself, F550 with stock dji motors/esc's/10x3.8 props and h3-2d. I used 2x 330ah 3s for about 6mins flight here's a link to my test flight on fairly...

    What multi airframe for heavy lift use?

    Hello all! My apologies if I have posted in the incorrect location. I am planning and budgeting the cost of building/purchasing a heavy lift multi. Its main use will be AP and Videography and will need to be able to comfortably carry a brushless gimbal for dslr and the camera and lens (Canon...

    Gimble problem need help please

    You will probably only get 60 degrees of movement from your servos when powered up, even though, when not powered, you get more than 60 degrees of physical movement when turned by hand. It all depends on the servo, normal servos you only get 60 deg of movement.
