Went well - only Alex and myself there, but we had a drink and a chat about all things multi. You should come along next time!

A couple of us will be meeting for a drink tomorrow night (Friday 10th) at the Slip Inn, 111 Sussex St Sydney from 7:00pm. Everyone's more than welcome to pop in for a quiet one if you are the neighbourhood. See Meetup for my phone number or PM me. Cheers

very very nice! looks like a great spot.

A beaut day for flying... Found a nice quiet spot in Parra Park near the river.

Ok - so NeRvD has the Pixhawk - APM 2.5 and 1 still available if anyone wants it for their 'backup' multi or for their neice, nephew, kid brother... cat....

Hi JB, I guess it depends on what you're looking for. I started with the APM series of FCs and while they were ok I found that the DJI products were plug and play. My main bag is video and photography, and while I do enjoy constructing multirotors, it's the output that I'm most interested in...

No worries - how about Friday evening - 6pm ish? I actually have to pass Chatswood on the way home so could meet you at Chatswood station?

Hi fellas, You might have seen from a post in the main forum, I want to do a series of checklists for the popular brands/configs of multirotor. Making these freely available to the community will help drive safety and make things more enjoyable for everyone concerned. I've done the first one...

Hi NeRvD, I'm based in Sydney as well - I live in the North but work in the CBD (Darling Quarter) weekdays. Happy to pass to you if you work in the city or post if not. We also have a group that's just started up on Meetup - the Sydney Multirotor Society. The idea of the group will be to meet...

Yeah - I can see how that would ruin your day! I've added these into the checklist and have updated the PDF above. Now, what's next? 3DR? Mikrocopter? s800?

brilliant- thanks I'll include those

Hi folks, I want to put together a series of pre-flight checklists for the community, to help new and experience pilots alike stay safe and make every sortie a great one. But I need your help to make sure these are complete. I create a checklist for the DJI Phantom 2 Vision+. It's designed to...

BTW - we've planned another meetup for Parramatta Park this Sunday at 10am. we'll be meeting at 10 outside the Parramatta RSL club, which is corner of Macquarie and O'Connell St, Parra.

Oh come on man! Thing of the great shots you'll get! :nevreness:

Next Stop South Head Hi y'all, I'm going to South Head next Saturday morning for Sunrise. If you're anywhere in the North and you'd like to come, give me a shout and I can pick you up on the way. I'm in Thornleigh. It'll be an early one. Sunrise is 5:27...

Hey Ponk, It's a nice little unit hey? I bought one as a grab and go and I like the way is just hangs when you take your thumbs off the controls. I was at Vaucluse last weekend flying off the cliffs there and got some great footage

It was the field studies centre at the corner of Bicentennial Park. I was there for about 30mins and didn't see anyone else. Looks like we all went different places!

I personally haven't had issues with rangers, but I tend to fly early or late during 'golden hour'. I don't tihnk it should be an issue at 9:30 ish - however if worst comes to worst they would likely tell us to bugger off... and off we would bugger to greener pastures.

Nope- just suggesting based on the idea of in and around Olympic Pk. Open to other suggestions - any other places nearby without ranger danger?

How about Bicentennial Park? Plenty of open grass. There's a place called the Bicentennial Park Field Studies Centre where we could meet...
