    You're right. They aren't meant for absorbing shock. If this hex tragically falls, I at least can find all of them not too far from each other.

    F550 Hexacopter Build

    After a few days of messing around with it, I finally put everything together and put it to a test flight. But it didn't even lift at all. Then I noticed that I mounted all the propellers in the wrong direction that actually created down force. After reinstalling all the propellers, it hovered...

    F550 Hexacopter Build

    I knew it was a knock-off version of DJI from the beginning. But with that price tag, I wouldn't complain. But even a knock-off version from China now comes with power distribution at the bottom plate now. In order to get this done, I had to place all my ESC on the bottom plate. The pic below...

    F550 Hexacopter Build

    I overlooked item #7, which is Power distribution board, from the bundle list since it was listed in extra MISC parts like screws, cable ties, and heat shrink. I thought the bottom plate came with power distribution like F450 and S500. But it did not. After some layout examination, I...

    F550 Hexacopter Build

    I just started this hobby about 2 months ago after buying my first SYMA X11C mini quad. This is my second build after FPV QAV250. After some LOS flying with QAV250, I noticed that I need a new MR for aerial photography. At first I chose from F450 to S500. But after I read from a lot of forum...

    Hello from Malaysia, Asia

    Thank you Carapau, this hobby is quite new in my country. Most people just fly with commercial grade MR like Phantom. I really hope I can get more people from my area hooked up with this fun hobby.

    Hello from Malaysia, Asia

    I guess there're not many Asians here, especially the country which I'm from. Anyway, I just started this hobby about 2 months ago from buying a toy-grade mini quad. Then started building a FPV QAV250 and FPV F550. Basically I don't know anyone who flies multirotor from my real life or...

    need help with current setup... before I judo chop this than

    The seller sold it to me as a plug-and-play gimbal. I just had to mount an action cam, then power it up. It automatically adjust its level. Then I just attach the yellow and black cable to my receiver's channel 6 in order for the camera upward or downward.

    need help with current setup... before I judo chop this than

    Thank you for your advice. Sadly I bought it online from China. Even it stated as "KBM 2D/3D 3-axis gimbal" (Mine is 2D), but I never heard of this brand since I'm fairy new in this hobby. As you all already know, there're a lot of cloned or knock-off products from China. Alright, I'll start a...

    need help with current setup... before I judo chop this than

    I'm very new to this multicoppter scene. I can't go with detailed and technical stuff since I just started this hobby 2 months ago. But I know what works for me and had done so. 1.) I recently just bought a very user friendly gimbal controller for my second build F550. It's quite easy to setup...
