You also have the piece if mind that your not going to lose you fpv if you run your flight battery to low. That's thenin reason I run a second battery. Plus you can continue to run the fpv gear while you switch out flight batteries. That's a big help if you have an OSD with GPS that needs to...

That vtx (as do most) will only support up to 12v power, so if you use a 4s flight battery, you will have to either... 1. use a separate 3s battery for video gear (that's what I do) 2. step the 4s power down to 12 volts with a regulator of some kind. If you use a 3s flight battery, just tap...

Thanks, guys. We just had someone send this photo to us from our shoot. You can see the full size heli in the air behind us as we were just taking off. We made it onto the 6pm ABC news as well, but I haven't figured out how to get the video off my DVR yet...

Mine will be here Tuesday. I can't wait to have something to fly in doors, or at work.

This shot was a couple months in the making. We were working with a local private school, The Park School, to help document their centennial celebration. This is 1100 students and staff spelling out the name of their school. Gregory was a young boy that fell very ill and has been in the hospital...

I made my own conversion from 3mm carbon fiber, but I think it's the same size. It ends up being an F650 instead of 550. My gains are much higher, and it flys great, but when I put it on the data link and do click and go I'm getting massive wobble when it first leaves a hover. I think it's from...

Just checking in to see how things are going with this gimbal. Anyone else picked one up and have video that they can share?

needs extensions.

I just ordered the same one and got my shipping notice in less than 24hrs. It will be here in 3 biz days, and I'm on the east coast! Maybe they heard your complaints and are trying to improve their shipping times.

FPV is not the issue here, it's that all of DC is a no fly zone... even for A.R. Drones.

Every time one of these threads starts up it makes me think of this old commercial. I'm sure some of you stateside guys will know this well.

Isn't there a "Hover" option for the failsafe inside the assistant? I know wookong has it, so I would assume that Naza does as well.

That's pretty good. I flew back to my location one time to find a homeless guy sitting on the bench next to me at the baseball diamond. That freaked me out big time!

There seems to be a lot of potential there though. RRH, how much does the PLA run? I'm just curious what cost of operation is once you invest in the equipment.

Has anyone seen the new Makerbot Replicator 2? They have upped the resolution to print in 100 micron layers... about the same thickness as a sheet of printer paper. No more stair step sides on your parts. These might actually be good enough to print copter parts from now. What do you think...

Very good point, kloner. To be honest though I did have a pretty good idea that she was going to put a positive spin on it, but like you said.. you can never be 100% sure. This reporter has done a few stories in relation to the advertising firm I work for, so we were at least familiar with each...

Thanks, everyone! We were a little worried since you never truly know what they are going to print till it's out. The reporter could have taken a much different route, but I'm glad she didn't. We have been working with some area schools to try and teach the young ones about this technology...

Thanks kloner!

Hey gang, I might have mentioned a little while back that my wife and I were interviewed by the Baltimore Sun newspaper about our aerial photos. We've been printing and showing our work now and have caught a nice bit of local recognition for it. The Sun article finally came out and what was...

Was it Remzibi? I'm using one of his own OSD's now. I have a pair of them actually, one on each craft.
