    Two drones almost collide with NYPD chopper

    This one is just what the FAA is looking for professional Police pilots and a platform that was recording video at the time that will be able to refute the lawyers claims. This is very likely to go huge today.

    is my LiPo toast already?

    I am afraid I have to agree with the comments above, its likely toast perhaps you let it discharge too much or it was duff from the start. Don't be tempted to fly with it. As Ben says treat it with caution!

    Pixhawk the new flight controller from 3DR

    I see your note about keeping everything in line. The best multi I have flown to date is the Falcon 8 from Ascending technologies, looks a bit dated now and is not easy to transport but it works. I am very surprised it is not copied more. Its very easy to see which way its facing as well.

    European Laws

    Quite right Carapau, there are big fines and jail time in prospect for those stepping out of line in France as a direct result of some FPV flights a couple of years ago. The UK is scaling up for PPL(U) and CPL(U) but that's a little way off. If you had a licenced company the UK and you found out...

    APM vs the big boys (heavy lift octo's)

    Did you mention the Pixhawk has enough processing power to be getting on with other things ;-) Spline Nav will be what all the others try and catch up with this year. Its exactly what film makers need.

    Rough Start

    Please make sure you have your props removed when playing with the controller and RX, you never know what might happen!!
