    DJI MAVIC PRO Give-A-Way

    I would explore more of Moab, Utah (NOT in Arches NP!) on my mountain bike with the Mavic in the backpack and ready to fly.

    Show what you filmed - Post Your Video Here

    Love your video! Looks like you've been doing this a while. I'm trying to move from my static blimp aerial photo platform to a quadcopter. I'm presently playing around with an x650. Can you tell me, are you looking at a video screen or through video glasses while you're flying or what. Is...

    XAircraft X650 build thread

    All, Good news/Bad news! I got out and flew a couple of days ago. I'm still trying to master basic flight but getting better! Some of those online videos make it look so easy! I noticed before that I had way more control than I needed so I dialed back the transmitter sensitivity to 75%...

    XAircraft X650 build thread

    Bart I just received the X650 kit and put it together yesterday. Today I hooked up an RC unit and battery to see if everything works. I held on to a skid and cranked up the throttle. The motors started fine and all control seemed to be working correctly- but... I loosened up my grip on the...
