    Flying in Patagonia with my Inspire 1 RAW

    Beautiful work. To get this stuff noticed we need to start a competition group/organisation. Drone video isn't the aerial imaging of the 20th century and could do with some dedicated representation. What's your thoughts?

    questions and suggestions on first quadrotor build

    Kk2.0 help!!!

    Many things can affect the operation of a multirotor especially if you have had a few crashes. Any damaged wiring can make the controller do weird stuff. Check each motor while the props are off. Juggle the wiring and see if any motors do odd things. ESCs with damage can do weird things too. I...
