    how come i can't get more FPV distance?

    yes, it worked at your place and out in the desert and way down the train tracks, too. the antenna does point straight up and i've tried straight down, too. neither helped. i'm not using a gopro as the camera; went with one of those tiny sony pz cams instead. maybe it's a broken solder joint...

    how come i can't get more FPV distance?

    i'm using a fatshark vtx and fatshark attitudes goggle and when i get about 50' out, even with no obstructions around, the signal starts to deteriorate pdq. at first, i thought it was battery noise, so i bought ibcrazy's filter and that had no impact whatsoever. so then i thought i'd try a...

    KK Flight Controller need initial kk2 settings

    well, then, what are the basic settings? that's what i'm after! will check the props but, if they're out of whack, they gotta be wwwway outta whack, given the alarming nature of the bobble wobbles of my bird.

    FPV set-up works inside but not outside ... wtf?

    Well, in fact, it's not his monitor that green screens but mine -- the Foxtech that you once had :-) and I don't think they're supposed to do that, are they? In any event, the indoor/outdoor issue *only* occurs with his TX. My Fatshark TX works perfectly with both monitors. Wouldn't this lead...

    FPV set-up works inside but not outside ... wtf?

    Can somebody explain this? My buddy's FPV set up works great inside, but the moment he steps outside, the monitor screen goes blank. He's using a TS351 TX on his quad -- http://helidirect.com/ts351-58ghz-200mw-av-wireless-transmitter-p-27970.hdx -- and we've tried it with both my immersion RX...

    Ok to use DJI props (Gemfans) on non-dji motor?

    I have a bunch of GemFan DJI props with the flatted key inside the hole, which are made for the DJI motors. But ... is it okay to also use them on motor shafts that don't require the flat part? Just curious what the results might be. all good or wobble-induced disaster? thanks!

    icharger 306b and what else?

    ProgressiveRC - "The Surface" 500W Combo - Charger Combos - Chargers This is the one the guy at P-RC recommended for my friend. Only difference is the power supply, 500 vs 1000. What do you get for 500W more? He also rattled off a formula that'd tell me how long it would take to charge, say...

    BPH - Cheetah Prop Adapter Shaft: 4mm, Prop: 5mm (Shaft Diameter: 3.2mm, Prop-Hole Diameter: 4mm) Prop Adapter for 4mm shaft - with set screw Okay, for future reference, I found these two 4mm-5mm prop adapters. At least I think I have. The description of the first one seems different from...

    Which 8" props w/ **6mm** holes for Suppo 2810 motors?

    thanks. but what a freaking ordeal. right now, instead of going the reamer route, i'm trying to find a 4mm (motor shaft) - 5mm (prop shaft) prop adapter, since the gemfans have a 5mm hole. why don't sellers put the prop-hole size of their props in their listings? you'd think that would be...

    Which 8" props w/ **6mm** holes for Suppo 2810 motors?

    I just bought a whole bunch of gemfan 8" props for my suppo 2810 motors, only to find out that the shafts on the stock prop adapters are 6mm and the prop holes are 5mm and no way am i going to spend the next 15 years reaming out all the props i've got. i searched for 4mm - 5mm prop adapters and...

    I think kloner's talking about the pelican-clone carrying case he uses .... my buddy doesn't want to multiple source stuff. he likes to buy ready-to-go. that being the case, could someone go look at the link above and let me know what you think? thanks!

    icharger 306b and what else?

    My has-more-money-than-me pal wants to be able to charge a few batteries at one time. i was thinking of the 306b icharger, which i believe kloner has and likes. i wa thinking he should maybe get this combo (when everything gets back in stock)...

    are those $80 pixims that much better than the $45 pz0420 that it'll make a significant diff in the situation i'm talking about? yeah, the hero's feed just isn't that comfortable to me. i think it's how wide angle the lens is. i know i'd get better w/ practice but if one of those dedicated...

    is there one of these cameras / lenses that'd be better for someone with poor depth perception, even if it means the colors aren't as true-to-live accurate?
