drone

I was considering buying a gremlin when I saw a review on the power pack g v2 saying that it didn't work properly on the gremlin frames. I was wondering if this is still an issue? If this is still an issue is it possible to fix it?

The last three weeks the weather here was really bad, so sadly no flying so I used the grounded time to watch over 100hours of video edit tutorials and put together this little clip it is a cinematic edit (only 24fps) cinema bars and so on, in a Race drone Edit out of my footage from the last...

Made a edit from our yearly meet up on the ice! Flying both FPV wings and drones.

Hello my name is Andres, I am building a quad copter that will weigh at most 5 pounds. It will need to fly a long way ( not sure but a mile? maybe more), but I am looking for efficient motors with a low amperage take so that the battery will last longer. I was planning to use a 2300Kv...

that was an absolute lucky shot, first because of high wind speed weather forecast I was thinking the day will be no flying but shortly before the day end I watched some nearby webcams and I a voice in my head said lets to it :) I should hear on my inner voice more often...

Hi, I'm student-pilot of real gliders and recently got into hobby of the FPV Drones. I have never build any RC vehicle myself so I immediately fell in love with the Build video of FT 210 due to it's accuracy - ease of build. There is one problem though and that is that the list of parts is no...

Hello, Does anyone know of a good brushless inrunner capable of a continuous power rating of about 12-15 kW that has reasonable weight (under 5kg)? For a bit of context, I am building a drone and I need two motors like this to connect to the back of two gas turbines in the drone to output a...

I am currently in an engineering class where me and my team need to come up with an idea and develop it through the engineering process. I am posting this to see how the people of this community would feel about our idea. So our teams idea is a parachute pack that can be attached to both drones...

All day I wanted to go fly my SpiTTT but couldn’t because I was at work. At least I had the fun to watch my daughter fly her brother’s drone for her very first time.

Family flying day. Started with training my son on the Simple Soarer 2 channels. Continued to flying a dorne with him and to wrap up the day took everyone to see me fly the TT with the sports wing 4 channels.

Hi everyone, I am working on a free falling drone that could orient it self mid air using reaction wheels instead of propellers (this is my second post about it here) and I got some good advice to use a pre-made flight controller. So I just bought a Lumenier F4 AIO board with some ESCs and...

Hey everyone! I am working on a project to build a robot that could control it's orientation while being thrown into the air (the robot is a small cube). The robot uses 3 reaction wheels to orient it's self mid-air. I am currently using a IMU and a Raspberry Pi 3 to process data and control the...

Hello! A little while ago I bought the darkmax 220, and recently I wanted to go from FlySky to FrSky. I got the receiver yesterday (XM+). Binding the receiver when without any real pain, I had to look up some video's on YouTube. But when I plug in my receiver to my quad it does not seem to talk...

Share your opinions about your favorite drones with us! Rex WorldWide, an Illinois-based engineering firm, is determined to create new, cutting-edge quadcopter drone models and services for everyone, but we need your help. If you own or have owned a drone, let us know what you think of it...

Hello, I'm looking for a drone hardware store with some knowledgeable and handy technical people that will assemble a Betaflight drone from the parts that they sell. I will then need to be able to write a program that will control flight of the drone, and do some things in the air (be able to...

So I powerlooped on an extremely flat battery (stupid) and couldn't pull out, so I plopped down relatively lightly in the grass. I didn't lose telemetry (lua, voltage, ex.), but the fc is getting no sbus signal. Connections are all good. I tried a different receiver, no luck. I also tried to...

Not sure where to post this. Maybe better off on the Flotetest forum, but I guess scratch building is technically correct. I was thinking about ocean kayaking the other day (as you do), and had an idea. I am a recreational fisherman, and have always wondered what I could see under the surface...

Hey guys, I'm using this thread as a sort of build log for my next Arduino airplane. I've been working with UAV avionics as a hobbyist, intern, and university researcher for about 2 years now. This will be the first plane, though, that I will lay out exactly how all the systems come together...

Hi there, I've built and tested a prototype of the Rocket Drone (I'm currently patenting), equipped with a "hybrid" motor/engine. This could be an interesting way of retrieving the model rockets (water or pyro), without using the parachute. Please take a look at it and let me know your opinion...
