Hello everyone. I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this, but would like someone to confirm. Is the altitude read by the Naza-M V.2 hardware done by a simple barometric pressure sensor? Is that how the Naza knows how to react when you set Altitude Limits in the Assistant software? If so...

Hello everyone. Could some of you cracks advise me on how to perform maintenance on MR motors? I mean, do you need to add a few drops of oil or lithium grease or anything to the motors occasionally? I'm just wondering here. As the motors are the only moving parts of my quadcopter, is there...

Hey everyone. I'd like to get some feedback on what I'm missing here in terms of my understanding of LiPo batteries, especially brand new ones and how they behave. Some background: Completed my first quadcopter build (F450 with DJI E300) a couple of weeks ago. In anticipation, I bought two...

Finally got my box from HK today. Waited a month for the delivery. To be fair, Spanish customs held on to my package for nearly 20 days, then extorted an additional 85€ from me on top of the $295 plus $59 shipping paid to HK. Open the box just like the kid in A Christmas Story (his red ranger...

Hello everyone. Well thanks to Bartman; and a host of others here, I am finally getting around to my first F450 build. I've watched a ton of videos from people all over the world, and some seem to mount the F450's red arms forward and white arms aft. Others however, seem to prefer the...

Hello everyone. I follow HK on their YouTube channel and see that they are introducing a LiPo "especially designed" for MR use. In a nutshell, they have lowered the C-rating to 10 (ie, 10C) to increase the mAh capacity for the same physical size. I'm posting a link to their video giving a...

Hello everyone. I've been going over and cleaning up some of my "favorites" in YouTube, and just had to share these videos with you. They have nothing to do with MR or RC, but everything to do with flight. I used to fly, so this kind of video just gives me a friggen hard-, uh....hmmm...never...

Sigh. Anyone else see this headline? Why oh why does the clueless media keep referring to RC vehicles as drones?? http://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/Near-Collision-Between-Drone-And-Helicopter-Rattles-Pilots-267400371.html

Just want to introduce myself. I'm an American living in Spain. Just discovered quadcopters some six or eight months ago...and I've become addicted. I'm an old rocketeer who loves to make homemade rockets and rocket fuels, plus I've experimented (very little...the wife put the brakes on some)...
