Hi there guys and gals
Phil here from not so sunny "Britland", Cheshire to be precise.
Been flying my TBS quad for about 6 months now in an FPV role and lovin every minute of it. Must admit the gimbal is giving me some problems, but hey, if I didn't have something to grumble about, I'd be bored.
Hope to pluck as much knowledge as poss from you guys, and pass on anything I can in return. (I paint RC heli canopies, so can help with info re that if necessary).
Cheers

Hey Phil,

Seem to be a few of us from Cheshire and North Wales on these boards!

Six months fpv flying puts you way ahead of me so don't expect me to offer much help but I'm sure there's plenty of others who can.

Cheers!

I am in the same time zone being in Lancashire!

Look forward to seeing some pics of your set up

Thanks for the welcome guys. I will get a pic of the TBS quad up tomorrow, complete with problematic gimbal, which I will sort out, come what may !!!

There are a few guys who fly FPV at our heli club near Winsford, but it's only TBS and Bixler sized gear, not big Hex's. With all the testing I'm doing, I usually just drive to my mates field in our village, and test fly there for 20 mins. Then back again for the post mortum as to why it won't work. Lol

Hey Phil,

Welcome to the forum fella, the guys in here are great helpful and full of useful information.
I have few canopies that could do with reviving but that is another project for the future ;-)

Buckers do you airbrush stuff? I was looking for someone to do something creative on a dome.

Hi Guys

Here is a pic of my TBS quad. Look a bit messy at the moment as I'm swopping over from 2.4GHz to UHF shortly, and also changing OSD systems, plus other things that need doing as well.

There are plenty of vids of my flying, ALL showing this bloody problem I have with the gimbal. This is one of them....


Yes, I do alot of airbrushing, mainly RC helicopter canopies, but also planes, boats, crash helmets, toilet seats, you name it.....
Here are a few of them.................

Thanks for all the welcomes and "likes" of my paint jobs. My gimbal problem is ongoing and I WILL sort it eventually - I haven't come on this forum to moan about it, just to share thoughts about all things quad related. :listening_headphone
