Now I'm starting to think about my DX8. I haven't had any problems yet but sometimes on startup my satellite receiver doesn't pick up the Tx right away and I have to turn off/on again. This Futaba is 14ch and well priced

Welcome, r.spitz. I live on Bowen Island. Nice to have another BC flyer here at MRF. It's a smaller community but dedicated and very helpful.

Welcome, fellow Canadian!

I've been thinking about MK v. Wookong and pros and cons of each and this is what I've come up with. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Prices are in US dollars as advertised on Quadrocopter.us MK Hexa XL dist. board (assembled) $712 Flight-Ctrl $460 Navi-Ctrl $290 GPS $105 MK total: $1567 plus...

nice video, llbr22...very smooth.

I love taking my MK waaaay up. It's probably not much higher than 200M though but it feels pretty high. I get nervous about losing connection with the Tx or something else unforeseen happening when it's so high up. What heights do you guys go up to? What makes you uncomfortable? What is your...

So many tempting ways to spend more money.

Welcome, Mario! Sounds like an ingenious use for a multi-rotor. Best of luck to you. Fly every day (that you can) and you will improve in no time. I started with too much confidence which was quickly bashed out me in a few expensive crashes and it was baby steps from there.

why?

well...not really...I am still able to charge up to 65% then I get the error...a quick living room hovering test is showing that: a). The pack will last about 6 mins bringing the battery to 17% so I may still be able to use the pack flying normally for under 6 mins. b). flying the okto in the...

nice work, guys!

can someone record it/convert it and post it for the non-britons? I know it's asking a lot but we are all video pros are we not?

no swelling.

Thanks, AIRCONROB, I will try that.

Wow! Gives me vertigo watching that. Are you going to be filming a basejump there? Can't wait to see that.

I've been getting around 7-8 mins. no problem. Maybe I was flying a bit more aggressively. It didn't seem like it. Battery was charged to 96% when I took her out. It failed at around 7:45 mins. Battery is a 6600mah 14.8v 28C 4 cell. It's a VoltOn formerly known as PolyQuest produced by...

So I'm having a beautiful flight. I have my timer set to 8 mins which is usually fine though I don't usually fly until the timer goes off. I guess I pushed it a bit far because as I was bringing her back she starts heading very quickly towards the ground...not in freefall but faster than I was...

Any experience with the PhotoShip One mkTR, Ken? I like that the landing skids are integrated into the unit.

I wanted to start a thread here to talk about camera mounts. I'm curious to know what everyone has and what they think of them. Good value or???

that's really smooth...any software stabilization used in the video?
