I was telling someone else in another thread about the Lockheed FC and the video was showing that it primary goal and uses seem to be on gear toward commercial and police / military uses not hobby. That FC probably cost an arm and leg. Bill

Posted this in wrong thread sorry it was 3am when I posted =P Bill

About Lockheed FC .... http://www.lockheedmartin.com/us/products/procerus/kestrel.html Be sure to check out the video on it .... Bill

I believe all the big MR manufacturers contract out coders for their FC too. It allow the products out quicker for mass market. R&D is too costly to establish and eat up time and profits for hobby needs since their primary sales and profits is from hobby uses not commercial uses. There no laws...

If you are flying at $10,000 copter with a $10,000 camera on it then surely you can afford to contract out to someone with a master or PhD in Computer Science to create a custom firmware specifically for your needs. I am not talking about them 20-45 years old geeks that work at Taco Bell and...

I think you missed the point. I wasn't taking about hiring someone to pilot your MR but creating a FC firmware to specifically for your needs. Just like hiring someone to do website for your business because not every website is the same but designed specifically for your business needs. Or...

Because this is a new world so I would think the best way to go is to hire someone with a Computer Science degree and use one of those FC with open source firmware and keep them close to you on the job site at all time. Bill

The crimper I used is the same one as this one on Ebay - http://www.ebay.com/itm/ANDERSON-POWERPOLE-TC-1-CRIMPER-FOR-15-30-45-AMP-CONNECTORS-/261500366941?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3ce2a2f05d It works great for me and the crimp result looked nice and clean. Bill

Howdy everyone!, I am new to the MR game but not to the R/C since I have owned RC planes (gas powered) and cars (NiCd) in the past. Been following this forum closely so I thought it time I make myself known and say howdy to everyone here. I know it seem going to a Tarot 380PRO is a big jump...

Lot of folks are saying Anderson Powerpole are the way to go. I brought a couple of Anderson Powerpole but I haven't gotten around to swapping out the connectors to try it out. It seem to be a nicely designed connectors and you can even snap the two together to make a dual connector. There...

Thank you both for the head up, I ordered it. Bill

The link is broken but I notice you use a comma instead a period before the com so I googled it and found the website. Thank for the information, I am still needing the Pixhawk and GPS etc so I sent off an email to 3D Robotics 3 days ago with some question when they may get more back in...

Nice landing gear! Would you share where you get that landing gear from? Thank you Bill

Website stated that they are out of stock too. Bill

Do the ESC have to be purchased specifically for the FC you plan to use in MR? I am thinking about purchasing a ARF F550 kits. I notice that comes with a DJI ESC and motors but I am want to use Pixhawk FC . Will it be compatible or I must get a Naza FC? I rather use Pixhawk FC because I...

I believe the nanosolar which have a higher output efficiency, lightweight and flexible become widely available, it possible get longer flight time from nanosolar feeding to a MR battery giving it an extra time before it exhausted but I doubt we will ever see a MR run entirely off solar alone...

They also seem to be out of stock on the 3DR uBlox GPS with Compass Kit. Bill

It seem that 3drobotics.com is out of stock on Pixhawk. Should I wait until they get more in stock for the newest version or is there other source to get the Pixhawk from that not a clone? Bill

Found one at same site - http://www.getfpv.com/dji-flamewheel-f550-arf-kit.html This the real thing? Not a clone kits? Bill
