Take a look at this: http://www.multirotorforums.com/threads/new-540-class-folding-quad-frame.24119/#post-199318 This is by a long time member of the MR world and is well thought out.

SOLD!

I can't help but point out that the F1 Gimbal manufacturer still has it on his website boasting the breakthrough Phobotics electronics. http://hdairstudio.com/the-f1-gimbal/

I typically build my own but decided to try one of these ebay jobs out a while back. Big Mistake! During the test flight everything seemed fine after about a 15 minute flight and then when I was about 5 meters over my driveway and landing it desoldered and copter smashed on the concrete. Never...

Here is another thread I came across in my research: http://diydrones.com/forum/topics/will-the-qx1-be-a-good-addition?xg_source=activity Sorry for posting to another forum but that's the right place to look. Especially for more triggering info. I still don't see the weight savings over an...

I was looking at this camera but video is only 30p and it weighs nearly as much as the RX100iii without a lens. I was in discussions about this camera on another forum and it can be triggered. If your still interested and I can find that info...

My ESC's physically don't have a power wire. In the past with regular ESC's I just removed the red wire from all and used a separate bec to power the Pixhawk rail if needed. I found if I used one ESC's power to supply rail that ESC got really hot.

Update on my HK Multistar 6s 8000mah batteries. Still super impressed! I'll give the full story here. I have 4 of these batts that I fly in parallel with the same two batts always paired together. They fly my newly built ~800mm hexacopter on Pixhawk. One set now has 4 flights and the other had...

Not familiar with Carefree DJI style but take a look here for good explanation: http://copter.ardupilot.com/wiki/flying-arducopter/flight-modes/simpleandsuper-simple-modes/

I like it! Not in the market at the moment, but its at the top of my list when I am. Plus I like that its from a veteran MR'r! Good luck!

You bet! The nylon screws are great for adjusting the dampening. I run mine off a 12 volt bec built into pdb. I just used a servo lead and it seems fine. I've checked if it's hot at all and nothing. That's after a 20 minute flight.

I just wanted to report back that I seem to have my gimbal with CP working very well now. I had a test flight yesterday and shot some boring video that looked excellent. I went ahead and added my camera trigger and needed to rebalance because of it and because I noticed a few things were not...

There is no power wire for the controller connection, just neg and signal, since they are opto escs.

I was thinking about that tragedy too. I wasn't planning on taking my copter to any of the SXSW events I'll be attending so he doesn't have to worry about me.

Couldn't resist tinkering with it. I first wanted to see if I could get my nadir (camera straight down) issue solved. I was told, "In the Centerpiece software, reduce R/C deadband and expo to 0". I did that and it improved some but not perfect. At the same time I discovered the Position limiter...

I did receive a quick reply about some tweaks to apply via their support systems in the software. Impressed. I should get a chance to try them in the next day or so.
