I would add mine, but I messed up the spreadsheet when I tried :( Nano-tech 4S 4000ma x 4 per flight Ross

I do each one individually, then if there is a problem, just slice the covering off & slip in a new motor. Ross

Looks really good on the gopro, have you got any video from the camera through the filter? Ross

Yes thats a shame about the plush 60A, I have found a programmer for silabs esc's...but I really dont have a clue where to start? I am running 12x6 apce props. Ross

From power board to ESC's I have soldered my connections, from the ESC's to motors I have kept the bullet connectors, but wraped each bullet in heatshrink.

Ken, what size motors are you running & what does the manufacturer recomend as regards prop size? I ask because I use apce12x6 props, which are recomended size for my motors, but I wanted to know if you found bigger better or smaller better? Ross

Here's what my fiancee uses when cotrolling the camera, it could just as well be a MR aircraft as she uses a DX7:- Its a carbonfibre/fibreglass tray, with sprung loaded metal arms that hook over her shoulders. The DX7 sits on the tray & to the left + right are arms rests/wrist rests. Under one...

Inearly bought a set of 450 blades like these...$175!!! There is a firm local to me thats workign on the same idea, but using it for advertising on F1 race cars! The effect in this video is superb. Ross

All ESC's should be a minimum of 400Hz, thats a standard ESC. Ross

After watching your video Parick, I gave my LED's a go & had some 25mm clear heatshrink, I only used 6 LED's on the 2 front legs. If you look at my avatar you will see its a long exposure night flight with a 3D foamie, so yes they are very bright :) :) 800ma should be nothing...dont forget thats...

2 good bits of news for me in your reply Ken. Firstly that someone will one day break the code for silabs & the new ESC's being MR orientated...wicked mate. Ross

So will that programe silabs ESC's? Ross

I also fly a Droidworx SJ8 using 60A ESC's & emax GT2820 motors on 12x6 props APCE (not slofly). As for the video TX, you will need a 3s lipo, 7.4v will not even switch it on! Basically you want to do what I want to do, I want to have my DX201 FPV cam mounted so that I can get in closer to...

Hi Ken, I was going to do my ESC's, they are plush 60A...ripped off the heatshrink & they are the wrong chips, so the 60A ESC's cant be reprogrammed yet!!!! Did you up the 400hz timing? Ross

Let's say for arguments sakes that there is 4 x 50cm LED's. Total = 2mtrs & @ 400ma per mtr = 800ma! I must admit its very easy to see it & adds so much further distance. I do a lot of night flying (3D fixed wing) & LED's treble to viewable range, so this octo will be seen for some great...

Very nicely doen Patrick, one thing that worries me slightly...the LED's? Be careful you dont get any glare onto the camera lens or it will tinge your final film! All camera lenses pick up some form of refracted light & having so many LED's could cause you a problem!! Apart from that, what a...

Thanks for the info Keith. Ross

Thanks Sebas, thats the same mounting & drive system as my askman mount, except it uses 360 degree robotic servos! I much prefer the modded savox servo & extrnal pot like your mount uses, hence why I wanted to see a photo. Your main cogwheel is 72 teeth???? Ross

At the risk of exposing my total stupidity...what is a flamewheel? Ross

* Digital Servo SH1290MG * Operating Voltage: 4.8~6.0V * Operating Speed (4.8V/6v): 0.059 /0.048 s * Stall Torque (4.8V/6V): 4 / 5 kg.cm * Gear Type: Metal * Motor : Coreless * Weight: 56.4 g * Dimensions: 40.3x20x37.2 mm I was wondering, how far do the servos travel on the AV200 mount? Have...
