Welcome to MultiRotorForums.com!!
In the coming days I'm going to be building a new feature into the site. I've had a couple of mishaps that weren't due to how I assembled things or how I was operating things and I think that some of these episodes should be noted for others going down the same road. So far we've been doing this with general forums posts but some things are just unsafe for us, represent a risk to others, and also put our investments at risk of going to waste. My cracked pressure sensor is a good example of this.
My plan is to have an area titled "Service Items" and there will be subforums for different manufacturers as well as general topic areas like "Propellers". The entire area will be moderated (all posts will be reviewed before becoming viewable) so that we can keep everything factual and prevent creating any unnecessary liability for our humble site operator. It won't so much be a discussion area as it will be a repository for known flaws or assembly errors (can you say zero ohm resistor?) that put our craft and the general public at risk.
A few examples of worthy (IMHO) posts for this new area;
Let's hear your comments on this before I go ahead and do it. Maybe it's not such a great idea, I'm open to suggestions.
Thanks for reading,
Bart

A few examples of worthy (IMHO) posts for this new area;
MK zero ohm resistor FC assembly flaw
MK pressure sensor assembly technique
XAircraft X650 plastic FC mounting screws
EPP props, early versions were reported to shed blades
My goal isn't to discredit anyone in the process of doing this but to merely create a place where factual data can be compiled so manufacturers and builders can change things to be safer and more reliable.MK pressure sensor assembly technique
