    MultiRC SHENANIGANS 150MM Quad - Review

    MultiRC sent me a 150mm Shenanigans quad frame to review. (Rest of the kit I purchased) This is a new direction for me. Tiny and I have to say I do like the use of the TPU. Flexible 3D printed parts are very neat. Not only do they absorb vibrations on the arms but they also help with impact...

    Quad setup question.

    Hi I have seen somewhere that you can program your quad to have about 10% throttle at the low stick position so that you can still have control. I have looked everywhere I could think of and cant find anything on this. Is there anyone that know how to do this or where I might be able to find...

    extending flight time for quads

    I had a weird idea of attaching a helium balloon to a quad to keep it in the air for a super long time. Anyone else thought of this too? Seems do-able. A helium balloon with just enough gas in it to help your quad, or plane I suppose, stay in the air for much longer than by just from battery...

    Quadcopter at the beach?

    My wife and I are going on vacation next week to a quiet little beach in North Carolina. I'm planning on taking my mini quad and doing some flying around the beach where there aren't a lot of people. What should I do to the quad or take with me to keep from ruining it while on vacation? I got...

    Hi everyone

    First off, hello, it's nice to meet you all. I'm new to the forum. I recently took the plunge into fpv quads after buying a pair of fat sharks, a dx6i, and an inductrix 200fpv. Either I'm really bad at this, I haven't set it up right, or the inductrix 200fpv is not a quad for beginners...
