    Camera suggestions

    I have been using the Panasonic LX3 for 20 month now, 7000 AP shots :) As it has a hotshoe mount, my shutter-servo setup slides in there. It does have live-view, it just isn't mentioned that you hold the "delete" key in for 5 seconds! Once on, it stays on until pressed like that again, even...

    Mikrokopter Droidworx AD 8 HLE (First Build)

    I understand - no worries. Good luck with your machine :) I'm very much a diy'r but after putting 90 minutes of flight-time on my machine in the last week, I am thinking that I am likely to spend up on a DW at some stage... Cheers Pete

    As an entrant (and only voter at this stage but you guys have probably guesssed that already!), I am happy if all 12 go into the hat. 1 in 12 is a damn good chance for 6 awesome motors! There was quite a variety of abilities (and chosen flight fields) but good on those that have put the time...

    Mikrokopter Droidworx AD 8 HLE (First Build)

    I have a strange question - as a diy'r. How much do the HLE arms weigh? I'm considering purchasing their arms separately for my own diy machine. Many thanks Pete

    If Mika keeps flying like that, he will gradually enlarge his flying area leaf by leaf :) What an awesome place. I love the solar charging. I have done that too on occassions although I have a 18 x 48" panel. Pete
