    First Build kit.

    I thought the Naze 32 was thought to be good, or has the technology moved on now? Thanks for the feedback on the frame. I assume you killed it translates to you found it good and you built it well. :-) Going to sound old potentially, if by "And Killed it." you meant you crashed it :-)

    Postman came H33 in the house

    @Jackson yes I realise that now re the size of the H31, I had thought the H33 would be a bit bigger. That said it is a good starter and not too stacked with tech. @Rick M good to know about your thoughts of and costs for the Eachine VR D2 Pro's. I put a silly bid on some the other week but I...

    From Hobby to Drone Business?

    Interesting topic. Just learning to fly, so its a no from me. What area are you interested in considering? Photographing peoples houses? Film making? Industrial surveying? Agricultural work? Or do you have another idea?

    Postman came H33 in the house

    Oh yes @mozquito1 I have watched a Mod on an JJRC H31 which as you say needed a battery compartment mod so I am anticipating the same. I tend to read more than do so I cant see motors wearing out for a while. That said early days. I have a Micro USB camera but while it works I now know about...

    Postman came H33 in the house

    Thanks @justdon . This one is a nice size not too small. I have a camera for it, but a wifi upgrade would be a fun enhancement. Looking forward to your new thread @mozquito1

    Postman came H33 in the house

    As an update the controls are nice and it flies well. I had my first flight today and it was controllable to fly in in a 6x3x6 foot space. A bigger battery is now on my shopping list.

    Postman came H33 in the house

    I did get it off the hall floor last night. Having a proper go in the morning. I suspect it may be a while before I punch holes @RENOV8R & @mozquito1 or Chop down trees @LoneRCRanger . I agree @Jackson the green props are a big help. I had planned modifications but I think it is a bit small or...

    Changing JJRC H43WH WIFI, app controlled quad to radio controlled?

    I did like the look of @Jackson bundle. That said I also like your idea @quadcopmod my toy quad arrives on Friday and experimenting with it at some point also attracts me.

    Lumenier QAV-XS

    Ah thanks, I had not thought about them being covers. I like that idea.

    Lumenier QAV-XS

    I was thinking that I assume there is some hidden soldering? Or is it plug and play?

    New WiFi RC mini Drone with 2.0 MP HD camera

    I would agree with rick about getting a respected review for what looks like a clone. This clone looks a better bet with a dedicated controller. Not seen much good said about phone controls...

    Cheap camera

    Much better to crash land that than with a GoPro onboard. :-)

    Nexus 7 LCD conversion for FPV monitor

    No worries mate I was just googling and found some simple mods for a 7 inch screen, but because I have a nexus and the guy just plugged it in I ran off with an idea but the more I read into it it is not a likely easy option. Maybe we need a space for random thoughts as we do have quite a bit...
