I like SunnySky, they come well balanced and run very quiet and cool. The ones I use on my quads with 3S lipo are 980KV and I get a useful 7-8 minutes flight on my 450. A lot of fellow fliers have similar good opinion of SunnySky. Very affordable also. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

An awesome build. Innovative and practical. Congratulations. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

I need a set of right-angled header pins for the APM 2.5 board. Specifically, I only need the Input/Output set (that fit the forward and rear ends of the board). Willing to pay plus shipping to the UK. Can anyone help please?

That Dragonplate material looks awesome. Thanks @EflierNZ - Loving the thought of using wood, although it is heavier than the F450 frame by 212grams at 494gm vs 282gm. It feels very Wright brothers :D More pics on the progress later.

I appear to have got it bad - elsewhere I've been posting already my early learning-to-fly experiences. I guess I've been an RC addict since my teen years but never got round to doing anything about it. Anyway, settling in to the H450 airframe (see...

Wow! Each time I look at it all I see is a Vulcan Bird of Prey :) Awesome.

@swisser - Well I've just gone out and burned up two 3S batteries - total flying time around 15 minutes, despite some "energetic" throttle control to save the airframe from another total. I did what you advised and nipped over to one of the local school sports fields, it is three pitches wide...

I'll do a video over the next two days of my current level of ability :D There is a sports field not too far away, its just that I've not really sussed out where I can/should fly the multirotor. I'm also wary (paranoid?) of the "giz a go" brigade. So have been looking for isolated spots. The...

@tstrike - Thanks for the table leg tip Tom, I'll certainly give that a go and see if I can assimilate that into my brain cells. I don't think I've been worked this hard since taking up learning a new programming language a few years ago. @swisser - Thank you for the excellent words of...

I reckon that I have wanted to get into flying RC ever since a young teenager, but it never happened. Now, in my second childhood, I have caught the multirotor bug rather badly. I simply have to learn to fly the things, and most particularly get into FPV piloting, the nearest thing to actually...

FPV using multi-rotor is where I'm aiming for, currently with a F450 style frame equipped with an Hobbyking KK2.0 with the latest firmware and flying Spektrum DS6i and DSMx receiver (Park Flyer at the mo). I am now waiting for the airframe parts to construct a third iteration of this 450...
