    Flexacopter w/WKM and AV130

    Look what I'm going to play with in the morning... My D7000 fits on an AV130 by about a mm. I had to cut the rubber panel off, and I can barely fit a custom AV cable in the port. Can't believe it all fits and works well with the video downlink. Hovered it quickly to make sure it works well but...

    Flexacopter w/WKM and AV130

    Here's some video of the first few flights, nothing spectacular but there's a prop strike and then some shots from the first gimbal flight. Not bad for not having it dialed in at all! https://vimeo.com/43055434

    Flexacopter w/WKM and AV130

    I posted all this originally at RCG, but think it would be appreciated more here so I'm duping it Quickly: The craftsmanship of this frame is phenomenal. They thought of (almost) everything and the quality is as good as you can get. Setup so far: Flexacopter with all the options including a...

    Any more updates or opinions between these two from those that posted that they were about to try them or a new firmware hack for GH2? Trying to decide which to use with a Zenmuse ... Potentially. =]

    Photohigher skyline rsgs

    Definitely a great question. I hadn't realized the skyline rotates with the tilt axis. This would create gimbal lock as Mario asked! Even with. 45 degree tilt it seems you get mixing... How has this been addressed??

    Distro boards

    It definitely makes adding any accessories to the multi easier than rewiring or adding to a harness IMHO.

    Flight control crash cage - 29/6/2011

    Pulling up old thread... could someone with one of these Crash Cages do me a favor and tell me the distance from opposing mount pin to mount pin in MM? I'm trying to figure out if it will fit my non-droidworx hub plates. Thanks!
