    Creating a Voice Controlled Tx???

    So I have a new project idea: creating a voice controlled transmitter for a gimbal. I know it may not be the best idea in practice, but I kinda just want to do it as a project. I was thinking of using an Arduino or Raspberry Pi to do the processing, the problem I am having is how to send that...

    Could I switch out the gimbal controller?

    So I have the Quanum Q-3D gimbal, and it is great, but the problem is that I cannot control yaw from my Tx. Could I go ahead and switch out the controller to one that allows this? Would that work?

    My quad crashed again.... For no reason

    So this quad has been quite a bit of trouble to me, but I am figuring it out. 3 times in the 4 days, I was flying it and it just drops out of mid-air. The first time it just broke an arm, but I fixed it. Yesterday it got stuck in a tree, but I resoldered and ESC and fixed it. Today it dropped...

    Controlling Quanum Q-3D Gimbal From Turnigy 9x

    So I have a nice quad that I built, and it works great. The one thing I would like to do is be able to use pitch and yaw from the knobs on the Turnigy 9x. The Q-3D has 3 servo leads for pitch roll and yaw, and I have 3 open channels on my receiver. I was just wondering how I could configure it.

    How do gimbal motors stay in place?

    I was just wondering how gimbal motors can stay firmly in place, but also can move if need be. Is this soley programming, or also the hardware? I would love this info for a future project...

    What is the most efficient setup?

    So I have been curious about this for awhile now: what is more efficient(assuming they are equal weights) - more motors with more thrust or less motors with less thrust? For example, if you had an octopcopter with 400g of thrust per motor or a quad with 800g of thrust per motor. I am assuming...
