    All right....All right....I know....You are gonna saw that it looks like a brake mark but it is the cut and pace that got everything together....It is easier to read on the actual site. The interesting colum are the first one (MPH) and the thied one (Pe). You like a little challenge don't you! :)

    propeller size/pitch differences

    Hi Kloner, First off, do not be scared, it doesn't bite. Looks crazy but its really simple you will see. This will help you. The link provided gives you access to the specs of all the props APC makes. Check out the E model. The raw data seems confusing but if you concentrate only on the...

    Understanding Batteries

    The Lipo cells that we are using are rated at 3.7 volts per cell. From this, 2S is 7,4 volts, 3S is 11.1 volts, 4S is 22.2 volts and so on. This is the voltage designation of the cells that are connected in serie (voltage increase and C (capacity in Amps) remains the same. Now the part that...

    Finally I have a small quad that can record jello Free GoPro footage!

    Bravo! This is very smart. I have also been in the Jello path, so to speak, and used all sorts of vibration absorbing material but never thought of this simple yet effective configuration. Are they silicone tubing sections? You got me thinking now... Bartman - You really made me laugh...

    Flying in tight spot, autumn in Quebec, freedom!

    Merci pour tes commentaires Dan. Comme je le mentionnes au début, le logiciel de stabilisation gratuit de Youtube fait du pas pire travail mais induit un peu de distorsion aussi. Mes hélices sont balancés avec un Top Flite Precision Magnetic Balancer donc le balancement statique est OK. Bien...

    Hoverfly alt hold

    Kloner, I think you are ready for the real stuff! You must try the DJI Wookong MC. Never had one so far but only heard good comments from experienced guys. With all the efforts and time you put in this endeavor, you deserve a professionnal/commercial FC. What do ya think?

    Hoverfly Flying In Cold Weather -12C- Video

    Very interesting.... just got back from 8 flights this morning since it was warm today (Canadian standards...) with a -8 degrees C. Off course my batteries were in the trunk of the car and got cold on the way to the test site. My flight time is cut off by 30% easy compare to summer.... The...

    Can you fly through and record on a Go Pro? Advantages, disadvantages? Help please...

    Works good for me too, It seems that the Gopro Hero 2 doesn't like to be connected to the video downlink while recording (Maybe it's just mine...) What I have to do is to turn the camera ON, turn the video downlink ON, connect the modified 2.5 mm video downlink to the camera. At that point I...

    Unable to write and configuration to F550

    As you have already noticed, there is quite a bit of information to read and understand when you first start in this hobby, especially from scratch. Reading your postings, I get the feeling you expected to purchase the stuff and be airborne before you even got home.... We were all the...

    NAZA Failsafe question

    I definitely suggest that you get a GPS unit as it really makes everything more enjoyable and safe. Without the GPS receiver, the NAZA has no way of assessing your flight parameters other than horizontal reference with 3 accelerometers and altitude with the piezoelectric barometric sensor...

    NAZA Failsafe question

    When the failsafe is activated by a switch on the transmitter, I believe that the NAZA will get into hover (stop the motion for a few seconds) and the analyse the ship altitude. If you are below 20 m (approx 60 feet), the ship will climb to 20 m and proceed to the selection you have recorded on...
