    Antenna's for 5.8 ghz

    I have these on the same immersion setup you have bought. http://www.readymaderc.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=11_45_49_97&products_id=1058 The key to good video reception with these comes from placement of the aerials. This was a useful video for me when I first started...

    KK Flight Controller KK esc calibrated but keep beeping

    What esc's are you using? Here is a simple video explaining how to set the throttle points, before you do this make sure that you set the trims to zero again. Check to see if you are doing the esc throttle points the same way as the video. Let us know if this is what you are doing. Make sure...

    Yuri, nice idea, I didnt read what you wrote properly, a 2 cell would do the job nicely and be relatively safe

    Yeah having a multi that is always armed isnt a very safe thing to have, I would need something to keep the throttle on my radio safely locked to the minimum spot.

    No, I am making my own frame. I love the Dexx frames and will ultimately try and build out of CF as he has done. My new build is a spider hexa but its another prototype built using tupperware containers and other odds and ends.

    Drew, I have been using HFP boards for close to 3 years now and am still totally happy with them. However i am currently messing around with a waterproof hexa build and need a FC which can do something the HFP cant do. The HFP cant be armed if the FC is moving and if trying to arm or launch off...

    KK Flight Controller KK esc calibrated but keep beeping

    When the beeping is happening does it go away if you lower your throttle trim. When doing the esc calibration its important to check that you have set all your trims to zero. I think you need to set your tuning pots to their central position, set your radio trims to zero and then do the esc...

    Take free flying lessons from this guy!

    I use AL on my HFP all the time, I started out only using manual mode for about 6 months because I hadnt configured the AL. The trouble with using AL all the time is you really do become reliant on it. I think its really important to be able to fly in fully manual without relying on AL. In...

    Take free flying lessons from this guy!

    I wonder if he either knew or meant to fly in manual because Im not great at manual flying but I can take off in manual and be in total control.

    Take free flying lessons from this guy!

    He looked like he knew what he was doing to me. He didnt look like some cowboy who had just bought the gear and got in to it. It does show just how fast things happen with the bigger setups. I know from just a few days ago from a dumb mistake on my part how quickly things go south with a bigger...

    Am I dumb for wanting a Cinestar 6?

    The GP3 is awful as a stills camera. I really wish people would think carefully before claiming its any good. Its primarily designed as an action video camera and the stills files really are poor. Changing the lens gives only a slightly better picture because of the better optics but the files...

    Alternative to Tiger MN4014-11?

    Does anyone have any alternative motors to the Tiger MN4014-11 motors?. Looking for something with a bit more grunt but heres the catch, at a lower cost. Not for me. Any hints would be appreciated. Cheers

    Just getting into gimbals please help, what's a good controller?

    I am pretty sure the alexmos controller can handle bigger gimbals, I bought the YUN-1 version which was for a gopro and then I have tried using it with a bigger rctimer gimbal and it worked pretty well. Best to check what others think though.

    Gimbal suggestion for Gopro HD/Hero 2?

    You should simply be able to plug in your tx to the gimbal controller and control tilt with your radio.

    Gimbal suggestion for Gopro HD/Hero 2?

    That gimbal you have bought has one design flaw which is something that may or may not cause you some problems and if it does its not too hard a fix. Those rubber grommets are designed to be used under compression. An awful lot of these gimbals are all copying each other and using them...

    Just getting into gimbals please help, what's a good controller?

    From my experience the Alexmos controllers are a bit easier to deal with. The absolute most important part of these brushless gimbals is that they are perfectly balanced in all axis. so not just roll and and pitch but also the central axis as well. If you dont have that right and cant balance...

    Just getting into gimbals please help, what's a good controller?

    If I remember you fly a gopro?. Money is always a factor but if you want to fly with a gopro and you dont want to spend ages messing around with tuning and software the Quaternium gimbal while expensive works right out of the box. You will save yourself the equivalent of the extra cost in the...

    Hoverfly Something Big?

    You arent the only one Paul. Love my HFP's, have still to find anything as good but would love to hear from them simply because i would like to hear they are having success somewhere. Would also love a smaller HF FC. I am hoping when this HF brushless gimbal comes out they allow us to buy the...
