    Trappy vs FAA

    I think long range FPV should not be legal to everyone. I however dont think it should be illegal either. It's almost better leaving some things a "dont ask dont tell" self regulated policy. But when the word gets out it is legal for anyone can you imagine the hazards that will be amongst us...

    I would like to order 5,000,000 Labels that say "Made In USA." But can you copy what someone else has already done so i dont have to design it?

    Selling the fleet

    BUMP! I realize in the current market of rapidly changing electronics that I will not get what I put into this, we never do. But I would be willing to sell everything(EVERYTHING) for $7500. This is the price most are selling 1 octo for. You will get not only the RTF XY8 but a long range...

    A heli tour of the SF Bay Area

    I was curious to see how well the cx760 would do against the vibrations of a real heli. You guys thing tuning an RC multi/gimbal is hard? It makes you appreciate what the Cineflex is capable of. I put half these shots through Mercalli or Warp but the raw footage was pretty good. I still...

    Has anyone tried these leg extensions for the F450?

    Nothing gets by the bartman! Good catch. Has anyone heard of irisaerial legs? I'm thinking about buying some because they look amazing and were the original product. And their batwings just work so well. I love supporting a local miltirotorforums member so I'm going to irisaerial.com. I hear...

    Time to update the video blocks....what are your favorite vids???

    Well, being as though i did put a lot of time into my entry I guess it would be nice to get some sort of play time. Seems after all a few others got a slot even though they were not #1, so maybe we can move down the line to last place. :)...

    Small drone crashes in NY city

    Sure, I'll go with idiot, why not. Idiot in the fact that he bought something and said F*** it, I gotta fly it lets just take a spin over a crowded area before i learn to fly. He, like many, just rely on the GPS as backup. but the tiny white chinese toy cant be seen for more than 50' without...

    Flying at Altitude

    I almost crashed hard at 7000-8000' using my 11' graupners on my y6, almost identical setup as yours Dave. I would never use 100% throttle, where at that alt I had to use it to prevent crashing on landing. Plan on lots of motor/prop. if you're flying 11 graups I bet you'd need 14's at that...

    Soldering Iron and Prop Balancer recommendations sought...

    there are only a few things to look for in the iron. Sharp point, variable control and at least 40w for handling the lipo connectors easily. Prop balancers are gonna be the top flite magnetic or the dubro tru spin. Magnetic works well but you need to make sure the shaft and cones are true and...

    Hoverfly What happened with my Hoverfly Pro during the night??? Hexed??

    DJI A2 PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU BUY (New firmware may change my opinion)

    Seriously, why is there not a communal strike against Dji with all the complaints people constantly have with their products, firmware and customer service? I know of one great way to show a company you are not happy.......don't buy their products!

    The best way is to use a large car battery.

    TBS Concordia footage used on Discovery Channel

    I didnt see that but I did see channel 4 KRON do a report on crashing drones. it was basically a collection of all the recent catastrophes. Apparently the wedding crash was real as they interviewed the pilot and he explained what happened and why he posted the video. Not good but I'm not...

    Just a thought on the future of Flight Controllers??

    Is Hoverfly still in business? I havent heard a single thing from them in ages. Hell, is MK in business??? Maybe they are the one hit wonders of the industry. I'm still sitting back and waiting until something keeps all these numbskulls from crashing their phantoms into people's faces!
