Hello everyone. I am brand new to the aviation side of the RC hobby. I've been racing and bashing RC cars for almost 10 years now (mostly bashing) and have always been pretty intimidated by the flying side of the hobby. A few years ago, I bought an EXI 450 pro helicopter thinking that would be a...

Hi everyone. I ordered a betafpv starter kit 2 which comes with box goggles. I was wondering if it would be worth upgrading to some Fatshark attitude V5's right off the bat or upgrading later. Any help would be fabulous. Thanks Cpl. Goertz

Hey everyone! FPV has always been interesting but also intimidating to me so I never took my first steps into it. That will change with your help! I really don’t understand much about FPV but I watched this Flite Test video, and said I have a Cub, I can do that! But frankly I don’t know...

I have this really weird problem where Betaflight doesn't seem to recognize that my battery is plugged in. I've tried 4 different batteries and I'm still getting the same problem. When I'm not connected via USB I can arm my motors and get them spinning with just the battery so I know I'm getting...

Hello. First of all, I am new to this forum and I hope I post this thread at the correct place... :rolleyes: I just picked up a "scratch built" drone and I have no clue whatsoever about what all the components are. I have flown a lot of RC planes, so I am not new to the RC hobby. But, I have...

Hi guys! So i have been having this problem for a while now but a can't seem to flash my Naze32 Rev6 flightcontroller. I have installed the CP210x Drivers and the vcp drivers. I have tried flashing it on BetaFlight, CleanFligt and Baseflight. None of them seem to work. This is my first time...

Hi there! I'm new to this and have never posted on any forums before so... have mercy! I've never flown or built an fpv quad or any rc things before. I'm dying to do it though! And determined to do so. I'm building an fpv race quad, for the first time, following this guide: I'm using the...

Hello all, I am located in Ontario Canada and am completely new to air RC, I have years of experience with surface bashers and racers. Now I have decided to dip my toes into drones and see if i get dragged in lol. Please forgive me if I'm not supposed to post a longer post in this section but...

My intial question: How do i get my motors to react to my stick movements?:confused: This may be a long shot but i was wondering if someone could help me trouble shoot this last problem i have before i can get my brushed micro in the air. I am using Flysksy FS-i6 with a flysky receiver, they...

Hi guys, (as im french im sorry if my sentences looks weird) I've recently bought a ft mini sparrow and i was wondering what was the best and cheapest transmitter to buy:confused:.

So I recently got a gremlin that was built by FT; I took it out of the box and plugged the battery in. The battery is fully charged and is a lumenier 2 cell, 400 mAh, and 7.4 volt. I was able to get my Spektrum DXe to bind to the receiver, the receiver held a solid orange light. The problem is...

Hi, I last helped build an RC plane >30 years ago and also did a few free flight balsa/tissue jobs plus some control line planes. Fast Forward a few decades: I am interested in doing some ecological work and am looking to start cheap while I learn. I can design and build a foam wing plane...

Hi guys! i am Francisco from Argentina and it is my first time around here. I have some electronics for an rc plane at home, but i don´t know if it is possible to scratch-build a plane using them. I have a turnigy brushless outrunner motor ( d2822/14, 1450 kv), a turnigy 2200mah 3s 25 lipo...

Hello All, I've been following Flite Test on Youtube for over a year now. I finally broke down and ordered a Simple Scout and figured I should join the forums. My dad did his best to get me into RC from a young age. My first plane was a line control J-3 cub with a cox .049; I don't believe we...

Greetings and Salivation's! Thought I should take a minute and do the compulsory introductory post .... HI!!! haha Okay eh in all honestly I hate doing these, never know what to say ... Complete Noob ... Years ago I had the Real Flight simulator with the hope of learning to fly, life happened...

Hi All! Greg from Texas coming through to say hi and give some (hopefully helpful) details of my recent Gremlin build! It is kind of long, but hopefully someone gets something out of it! I'm relatively new to multi-rotors. I picked up an Inductrix along with a Dx6e few months ago and was...
