30amp ESC's 11x5 Graupners.. Never get more than 50/60ºc... Ecalc is OK but it aint perfect.. best listen to guys flying things rather than a modelling software.. Dave

Why you removed it!? Dave

After spending the day tuning the SJLX4 and skyline I spent more time rebooting the laptop after continur=ed crashes due to 1.7/1 Is there a 1.7/2 out there? does it solve the crashing issue? Again no matter what I do I still have roll off centre at start up so will be putting it on a channel...

I am guessing it will be much harder after august to get permissions for aerial work in UK, OM's will need to be spot on and the craft may need air worthiness certs. The Guy on the Xfactor shoot was actually commended by the CAA for his actions getting the craft away from the crowd. We will...

Flying muliple packs in parallel is not the best idea. I fly two packs always but would never link more. The reason your machine has short flight times is because you cannot get the energy out of the packs pure and simple. Check you voltage drop from start up to hover. I ideally it should only...

Think most are over on the FF forum.

Thanks for the input chaps.. there is a lot of things I dont understand about the Skyline! Like it works fine and then for no apparent reason it throws a wobbler! just powered her up and its sitting bang on!

So is it just a case of sticking the roll pot connector into spare channel?

Any one know how to trim the roll? Everytime I power up it out one way or another so it would be good to be able to set roll on a channel to trim it level.. I am sure I have seen it done on a video but there are 148 pages on this thing! Dave

Dohhh! Amended. Pre Flight Checks! As far as the new cap722 we will all have to wait and see..! Personally I only think it will get tougher to get permissions for aerial work. Dave

Total respect there buddy.... my personal favourite is number 4 but i guess I am a tad biased... The rest are quality, love the quattro and the plane, sorry for my ignorance on the winged birds.. but to all reading this I can totally say I aint EVER seen someone fly a plane like Eyeball...

a co-opertive atitude is what this forum was built on... my pleasure hope it helps to keep you and your craft safe and flying... Dave

Witing for the wind to die down so will look at a either tomorrow or tuesday now. There are some lovely cotton grass fields up between inverness and FA that I want to get but just been up there and the wind is trolly to much for getting the shots I want.. hayho.. tomorrow looking good Dave

Take your time and really enjoy the build, building your own does give you an incredible sense of achievement but most importantly respect for your machine which becomes part of you and like any part of you you dont want to harm it.. Keep us posted Dave

:tennis: Yep Fun and enjoying what you do is the way to look at it, safety is a natural part of the passion for flying these rigs, with out the passion safety is compromised. Dave

What may seem to be a nag can sometimes turn out to be a flight saver, Its aleways good to have a second pair of eyes to give you a reminder especially when there is pressure on. One thing I forgot to mention is crowd control. Its often taken care of by my assistant but sometimes when flying...

I got inundated when I mentioned I would send a member our pre- flight check lists. So here it is.. Any further suggestions would by pro operators out there would help every once else to do there best to ensure safe operation of their machine. To add to this I also check IMU settings via...

Sorry all for not getting back in PM's but I have been remmed with work and poor internet. Here is mine, all comments appreciated http://www.multirotorforums.com/showthread.php?12318-Pre-Fight-Checks&p=114652#post114652

Thats fine f he has deep pockets! If I got a job for a movie where it would be used to its worth then I would build one but until then there is not enough requirement for the investment here. Dave

No not to many changes but just a few subtle ones.. Dave
