    Very nice. I was actually just wondering about this feature this morning. You guys read my mind sometimes. ;-)

    What countries are represented here?

    I think A2 is a paper size used outside of the US. We always forget that we are the only people in the world that don't use the metric system, so 8 1/2 x 11 inch paper only exists here in the US. Not sure if that is what they are talking about here, but I hope it helps. -Terry

    Good idea, Crash. I was thinking that for testing purposes it would serve me best so I can actually measure the difference. -Terry

    Hey guys, As many of you know, I have been building out a tricopter with the copter control board from Open Pilot for some time now. I've finally got it flying well and put the FPV gear all back on last weekend. The experience was amazing and I can't stop thinking about FPV now. It's...

    Awesome! A fellow Baltimore guy won! I wonder if he needs any help with the build? ;-)

    Tau Labs FPV set up with CC

    I was actually thinking of having one of the guys from the board come down and do some aerial photography of the event. We have a hot air balloon and are saying our vows balloon side just before take off. The balloon pilot was a little bugged out by the idea though so I had to can that. I'll...

    Tau Labs FPV set up with CC

    Hey peabody. Yup, I have a small Sony CCD positioned under the main body. I'll let you know how it goes with the Mac version. I probably won't have time to get to it till next week though... I'm getting married on Saturday and I was already told that I have to put the helicopters down for a...

    Tau Labs FPV set up with CC

    Crash, the problem I'm having with the RCTimers is that one of them seems to have less power than the other 2 at lower battery levels. With a full battery I can hit the gas and it goes straight up no problem, but after a few minutes of flight if I throttle up quickly the front left motor seems...

    Tau Labs FPV set up with CC

    Droider... I'm running the PC version from 522 in Fusion on the Mac. Works fine, but I plan on upgrading to the latest & greatest sometime next week. Sid... The effect was put in during post. I used iMovie and was able to add the effect that way. Juz... Those are the RCTimer 750kv...

    Tau Labs FPV set up with CC

    Ok, so I have my tricopter flying FPV pretty well with the new CopterControl board. Just made this quick video today at a new park my fiance took me to. It's a great spot actually that even had electrical outlets & a big pavilion. I can't wait to go back here to fly some more!

    Pheonix sim has a quadcopter

    How funny is it that the word ****pit was censored? Hahaha... The pilot ejected from the ****pit.

    Pheonix sim has a quadcopter

    Personally, i would LOVE to see them add a ****pit view (FPV) similar to what Real Flight has, but I doubt they ever will. The technology used to present their flying sites wouldn't allow it in it's current configuration.

    Pheonix sim has a quadcopter

    I downloaded it the other night. It did seem a little too stable for real life to me, but I've never flown a 330x so I'm not the expert there. I was able to instantly pick it up and start doing barrel rolls and back flips with no problems. Mind you I have never once been able to do that in...

    Great. I have some things I'm going to need soon so consider it done. ;-) Speaking of which, has anyone had a look at their motors. The Exceed line Rocket series looks pretty nice, I'd love to hear from anyone that has some experience with them. http://www.hobbypartz.com/rocket.html

    Do you only get the commission from the batteries at Hobbypartz.com, or any item purchased there after someone clicks the link here. Saw a couple of things I need to pick up and this got me wondering. -Terry

    Pheonix sim has a quadcopter

    I just saw this in one of my news feeds this morning. I've never flown the exact model they have in the sim (gaui 330x I believe), but I'm going to download it tonight and give it a shot.

    Tau Labs Open Pilot mention on Engadget.com

    I'm sure most of you have seen the story about the Bat Copter in Texas that is using the CC board. Engadget just ran their own version of the story. I'm baffled why they used the video they did, but it's still cool to see them mention Open Pilot...
