Set all the throttle configs on the 45amp Maytechs last night and then got to thinking. Leave everything stock or switch to 16hz instead of 8? Thanks for any help ESC gurus, much appreciated!!

Anyone ever tried "Splitting" TX Antennas and/or RX antennas with T type sma splitters??? Can see the benefit of doing this on the RX side to get multiple antennas in play but wondered if it actually works AND if you could do the same to TX antennas...

Developing an Ops Manual to help ease the way whenever we fly in an area that needs Government type permissions (Non-UK/primarily MENA Region). I understand you BNUC UK chaps have to develop one in order to gain certification and wondering if have an ops manual you don't mind sharing that we can...

Tore apart the AD6 last night and converting to X8 Coax. This will be my first quasi build (AMP-RTF) so am in uncharted territory. The powerboard is an AD8 board so I have two spare slots for the ESC. Thats good. But the tabs are currently occupied with leads for LEDs on one and the DJI IMU...

Trying to find a supplier who carries gensace and/or skylipo AND ships internationally. Thx all!!

Toying with an idea for a backseat medium lifter.

Starting to assemble a list of vendors offering complete brushless gimbal solutions - preference would be Gotheli since he's one of us ;) :) http://www.fpvmodel.com/yuni-brushless-gimbal-complete-kit-preorder_p496.html http://www.bevrc.com/mastorg-brushless-gimbals-for-gopro_p554.html...

Am I crazy??

Hello All TBS Disco guys, Wondered if you wouldn't mind sharing your Disco Landing Gear/and or Landing Gear/Gimbal combos here? Now that the brushless gimbals are starting to show I'm guessing more and more of us are going to want to add these to our Discos as well. Hoping we can consolidate...

Hello All, Wondered if you wouldn't mind sharing your 450/550 Landing Gear/and or Landing Gear/Gimbal combos here? As I'm sure most of you already know, center mounted gimbals catch motors, props, legs and everything else on the 550 so moving the cam to the front via LG to clear is the way to...

So I ordered a bunch of SMA T fittings... Wondering now where's the point of diminished return. Do I Split the TX signal to put an antenna above and below?? Do I add a Bluebeam and a Ducktail to my fatsharks?? Do I add Skews to my CP's to my Crosshairs to make my diversity, diverse...

Hello Heavy Lifter Folks, Any of you HL chaps have any 5S battery recommendations? 5D2/3/FS700/Scarlet payload type batteries. Any experience in particular with the wicked high mah/not so much C rating Maxamps - believe 10,500 was the preference in that brand? All help very much...

Trying to wrap my head around how Gains actually work. Do they simply increase TX stick sensitivity? Making sticks simply "faster" to the endpoints?? Does it create a non linear curve?? More sensitivity closer to center sticks? Does it give my chopper 5 extra horsepower simply by twisting the...

As the title suggests, would be nice to smooth out straight up and downs (descent wobbles) on Medium and Heavy Lifters. Would guess that the theory is that nacelles eliminate turbulence but at the nominal speeds and weight penalty for these guys... Ont the other hand, Benjamin Smooth Rowland...

Swapping the 550 over from Spektrum DX7 to Futaba 8FG/6208SB. Sbus made it easy. Everything configured (Dbus) and looking good in Assistant, time to try er out! and... Bloody GPS refuses to get a lock. 3 Reds foreverrrrrrrrr Ok fine. Maybe it doesn't like the new RX, time to relocate GPS...

Changing props on the AD6 and decided check motor balance (Laserpointer etc) during which I reached out to lightly grab the motors (no props on kids) and behold two motors stopped spinning with significantly less resistance than the other four?!? Does this mean: A: ESC's are not giving the...

Came across this cool little site whilst trolling for parallel balance boards (http://www.progressiverc.com/parallel-charge-board-for-jst-xh-xt60.html) I'm sure it's a bit basic but had a good time confirming visually series vs parallel :) Link looks scary but is fine...

Argh... Sorry all, I know this has been asked a hundred times but despite all my forum searches... What's the best method to remove the mast from the DJI GPS?? Heat gun and gentle twisting?? Hacksaw? Hammer??? What am I going to screw up that I didn't think I'd screw up but will now need a...

Doing up and downs with the AD6 lifting 5D2 and T3i and the clounter clockwise motors are all roughly 20 degree's celcius hotter than the clockwise motors after the flight. Props, motors and airframe have been micro balanced. Props are APC 13x6.5s No clue on this one... any help greatly...

Hello all, Anyone know if the bearings, plastic washer and/or retaining clips can be ordered separately from the motors and if so where?? Thanks in advance!!
