    SkyJib Octocopter for Filmmaking with RED Epic

    You may want to check with Hoverfly if those Maytech ESCs are compatible. I know the Turnigy Plush ESCs work because I use them. I've also read that the Castle Creations ESCs work with the updated firmware from CC.

    Ken, could you briefly give a rundown of the pros and cons of each of the boards you've tried? thanks, Ben

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Turning the XM6 into a Y6?

    It dawned on me after I posted this that coaxial may not be an option with the retracts. What's the word on that one, Linda? THANKS!

    Xoar carbon fiber props

    Razzil, I'm not sure what the difference is. Quality of the balance or efficiency maybe?

    Flight Controllers; The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

    I like my Hoverfly Pro. Flies great and easy to set up. What does Warthox use? He's the aerobatic master of multirotors. (Note: Wathox's flights are impressive because he has serious skills. He'd be killing it with any flight controller.)

    Xoar carbon fiber props

    They're 13x6.5 - they were part of the contest prize package. I'm excited to try them out. I'll report back when I do.

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Nic's XM-6 build blog...

    Glad to hear that the ESC recalibration helped out. Getting it to hover at near 50% throttle will be good too - it will be easier to fly. I've started building my XM. I've got the frame assembled. I still need to mount the motors and gimbal. DW is making a change to the retracts, so...

    Flying on an Airline with LiPo Batteries

    I've flown with our Lipos. I packed them in my carry-on. I taped the connectors with electrical tape and put them in Lipo bags.

    Just got these Xoar carbon fiber pairs, anybody tried them already? Looking for some feedback on these... When I get them bolted on the XM in a few weeks, I'll give my opinion. thanks, Ben

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Turning the XM6 into a Y6?

    Anyone built the XM6 as a Y6? I'm in the middle of building the XM6 and it crossed my mind to build it as a coaxial. Thoughts? thanks, Ben

    Aeronavics / Droidworx O-rings on XM6?

    I have a quick question about the o-rings that go on the booms of the XM6. There are two thicker o-rings that go on under the nacelles. But I don't understand where exactly the thinner single o-rings are supposed to go. They go on as the engine mounts go on, but not really sure where they are...
