As quoted from futaba's web site: What does the S.Bus system do? The innovative Futaba S.Bus system lets you unleash your flight system's full potential and cut down on cable clutter at the same time. It uses digital serial data communication technology to transmit control signals between...

Batteries and prop confusion going on here in the build. Guy who has built many of these is telling me one thing but the numbers say different. I think its me doing the calculations wrong. On the batteries I can go one 30C - 8000 mAh Zippy or two 25C - 5000 mAh Zippy's Total weight is...

Just read something else interesting......If you have a smaller prop on the top rotor by 8%, efficiency is significantly increased because of the lower blades exposure to more clean air at the tips where a good portion of the total lift is produced. :nevreness: THATS COOL!!

Great stuff..... After reading and understanding about 50% of the document.....(yea right) I came across this: "As expected, for the bottomrotor, the performance degrades significantly (about 40% increase inpower at same thrust at higher thrust levels) compared to that of thesingle...

Im not sure I understand...... We are planning to get the S-Buss receiver. Dose this unit provide telemetry back to the Futaba 8FG?

Oooooo.... Thats a lot of Mulaaaaaa for a radio. Thats a lot of money for battery info..... Figure with the low battery of the failsafe of the Naza...... It will let me know what its thinking anyway. But your makeing me think about it...:frog:

Hi All, Another discussion to bring about. Looking at the Futaba FG8 for its s-buss but open to other radio systems if there is an advantage. Are there radio systems that can give telemetry for battery status? Thoughts? :02.47-tranquillity:

Want to see you videos but your link isn't correct. Thanks

What are the advantages of a Y6 versus a Hex? :apathy: So far it looks like the Y6 can handle wind better than the Hex because of less surface area. Appears that most of the Y6 frames like the Vulcan Y6 CF are lighter. Any other reasons to be looking at a Hex? Thanks:nevreness:

Hi All, Tried to use xcoptercalc to get all the numbers and......Something doesn't look right. :upset: Here is the equipment and weight: VulcanUAV HEX 900mm - 958g PhotoHigher AV200 -590g DJI WooKong M - 118g Futaba R6208SB - 13.8g Zippy Flightmax 8000mAh 6S1P 30C - 1464g Canon SX1is...

Hi All, Need some advise or direction on the way to go with a new Hex and a couple of components I don't know how to size. Questions: 1 Batteries. What and how many? (Would be cool to make my own if anyone knows a source) 2 ECM's Dont want to break the bank but falling form the sky is not...
