    Cold Weather Flying

    It is a good idea (if you want to keep your multirotor in one piece) that you allow your craft to acclimate to the temperature you will be flying in. I typically let mine adjust to the outside temp for an hour. Then recalibrate your control board. Otherwise this could happen to you...

    Snarls' 500mm Spider Quad Build

    Hello everybody. A few months ago I built a large quadcopter (680mm) capable of carrying a large camera gimbal as a project for my last year in highschool. The project was a great success and I ended up with a very stable, gentle flying quadcopter. At the same time I learned what was good and...

    GoPro is going to make a multi!

    Looks like someone got upset that DJI is sourcing their cameras somewhere other than GoPro! http://gizmodo.com/wsj-gopro-is-going-to-make-its-own-drones-1663738793 Should be interesting!

    My Multirotor Story

    Right, so I am posting this about my latest tricopter build, based loosely off the great Windestål's design. Firstly I will say that I am 15, live in the UK, and am currently having my summer holiday. This build was completed to a massive budget, and in my mind was mostly an upgrade. I know this...

    DJI Phantom vs. Life Size Bumblebee Transformer

    Saw this on a road trip the other day so we stopped and grabbed some footage. Very cool especially if you grew up hooked on transformers like me :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWBCWRp2AJU

    Turnigy HD ActionCam

    The other week I needed some parts from HK and saw the new Turnigy HD ActionCam had been released. From reading I learned it is simply a SJ4000 which HK slapped a sticker onto. Still had been looking to buy a lighter flight camera for some time. I know the GoPros are the cats meow and I love...

    Go Pro Protection Question

    I'm a complete noob to the fixed wing hobby. However, I've been flying heli's for 10 years or so. Never FPV but many with my gopros for video or photography. My question is, why do the flite test guys and a lot of viewers NOT use the gopro cases for protection? Is it weight? Or aerodynamics...

    FPV lenses and VIRTUAL ACCELERATION affecting Mobius, GoPro and Fatshark ?

    FPV lenses, being tiny, cause an exaggeration of distance, an elongation of it, like looking through the wrong end of a telescope. I noticed this because the paddock next door to my house became huge; and the village 2 miles away almost invisible, although perfectly visible to the naked eye...

    Batbone/Tricopter Gimbal mounting - pictures/suggestions

    Hi everyone, So I've built my first tricopter (FT Batbone) and have taken CPO's zip tie idea and created a gopro camera tray mount. All good so far and I'm just practicing flying. In the future I would like to attach a gimbal so I've been researching. The Flitetest motor mounts don't give...

    FPV Wing V2 Plans Published

    G'day! I thought I would put a post here in the forum as I really don't think this warrants an article over on the main site... A while ago I was working on a modified Versa Wing with a snub-nose center section so it could be fitted out with FPV gear - Zephyr style. A lot of people asked if I...

    Inline 2 axis GoPro gimbal?

    Good morning  This may be a daft noob question but I've only had two hours sleep and my brain has frozen! I'm looking everywhere for a 2 axis brushless gimbal that can be mounted inline - e.g. like on a TBS Discovery - but all I see anywhere are the "hanging" DJI style mounts. Am I...
