I Wanted somewhere to log my flying and flight time, and so I though I would share it with you guys. I have done quite a but of flying in the past, so I am not going to log all of that. Will update when I fly next I guess??? Hobbyking Piper J-3 Swiss Cub 1400mm: 08/05/22: Flew for about 8...

I was surprised at how well(..ish) the first Cheap Flying Wing turned out, but wanted to fix the tail-heavy issues. This version addresses that. Here's a video of the second version: Here's a link to the Thingiverse page: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4802733 What do you think of it? Do...

So my friend and I flew his Horizon Hobby sport cub S late last summer, and he nose dived, and wrecked it. The foam in the front came off, and the tail got completely ripped off. So today I finally came around to fix it, I fixed the tail, only to find i had another problem, the throttle wouldnt...

For the last couple of weeks it's been raining pretty much non stop! Couple of days ago I decided to go flying anyway and found this new awesome spot!

The first release candidate of Betaflight 3.2 has been released just over 2 weeks ago. After hearing so many good things about it, I decided to test it out myself!

Love this spot during sunset!

I went to a big field for a change instead of a big forest!

For the last 7 months or so I was flying a really light weight true-X quad. Ever since I switched from a standard 210 to a 200 trueX quad I had some issues. One of the things I was running into was, I had issues getting inverted over trees with some amount of wind. The quad just did not have...

I thought I'd share this with the FT community. I'm nearing the end of a build of a weather station for my local club. We are in a location with no power or WiFi, so this is a DOLRAM station: Dirt Cheap Off-grid Low maintenance Realtime Atmospheric Monitoring Project details on my personal...

Just been watching some of the old Flight Test shows and the combination of Josh Bixler and Josh Scott. They were hysterical together during the teacher-student episodes. I wonder if they could adopt this idea below: Well we all know who the Wright Brothers were, so why not have a fun video...

For a long time I was watching this building and thought, one day... Last weekend we went there and flew...

It was cold...

Got a new video for you guys

Hi, I bought 50 sheets of flitetest foam. I was planning on building the Simple Soarer. Problem is, I only have 3S 1300mAh or 2S 800mAh. Will it run on either of those? or do I need to buy some 3S 800 mAh. Thanks Kevin
