Very nice Sven, did you shoot all the video including ground? Ross

steady....I'm on a budget for this little craft ;) So I'll stick with the tricopter by the sounds of it, thanks again for all the info RCNut. Ross

Sounds like I need a small quad instead ;) ;) Ross

Any numbers or markings on them Dave? Would like to know a bit more. Ross

Dave, as I said in a PM to you a week or so ago, you have done the test & in that case why dont YOU become cheif examiner, then others must come to you for the test...which obviously you charge for...say £100 each person. 15 people over the course of the year & you have broke even, you know...

Hexacop, that's got to be some of the smoothest if not the smoothest video I've seen from a MR aircraft, that's totally impressed both myself & my Mrs. Nice filming. So care to run us through what mount it is & exactly what you have done to get this far, more for me to get things straight in my...

Dave dont be such a tease, what have you found out ;) Ross

What motors are they Dave?

The one you make yourself!

Dave, cold does funny things to electronic equipment & even props!!!!! Don't forget you are higher up and moving making the -30 probably nearer to -40!!! What are those things at 2:45? I had to drag my Mrs away from the screen ;) ;) ;) Now you know I'm going to ask what lens you have on that...

£26 = $41, it's still a lot of money for a pot!!!!! ;)

Yeah, come on Dave stop messing about at work, there are more important things in life than work..I want to play with my toys ;) ;) ;)

at £26 a pop I hope it makes tea/coffee & auto pilots your MR ;) Ross

Jeff...what are you doing??? I was just getting into the quality music, which may I add was going nicely with the video & then you cut me off in my prime ;) ;) Nice filming mate, FPV as well...that's the way to go. How do you find flying a MR via FPV? Ross

I was only reading rcexplorer's tricopter builds last night, so its good to actually converse with someone who has one actually flying. The sad thing is I have just placed an order at HK for the FC board & a few other bits..I wasn't even thinking of building another MR aircraft, but now I am...

I think they are turnigy plush 60A ESC's. The motors take a max of 41A each, so I always go 1/3rd over the motor current...for safety. Ross

May I ask what motors/ESC's & props you are using, just trying to get an idea of what works well with a tri. Ross

Lance, I use an I2C-PWM with 60A ESC's. MY ESC's can not be modded as others have done (crappy atmel chips). But I can tell you my SJ8 flies superbly as it is setup, response is very fast. I have a short video of its maiden flight on YT...

Thanks Jake, just downloaded the latest stable version. I think Im going to make a tricopter or even a small quad for the Mrs to play about with. Ross

Bart....you are such a tease ;) ;) I am looking forward to seeing your gimbal...that almost sounds rude doesn't it ;) Have you got a price for your new one yet? I'm currently on a 4 year old+ gimbal & feel I could be flogging a dead horse if I continue to try & get it working smoothly! Regards...
