    Wanted suggestion of choosing cc3d as flying controller

    There are hundreds of build guides on youtube and elsewhere on the internet. If you haven't watched any yet, I would avoid the ones that go through the entire process in 20-30 minutes - I feel like they go too fast for beginners. I've posted several build video links elsewhere on this site, but...

    SD Card Choice

    Like many things, it's a depends question. For example, if you search for a UHS-1 card on Amazon (for example), you may notice that many cards titled with UHS-1 in the product title are actually marked with the UHS-1 and U3 symbols on the card. The key takeaway, IMO, from @RENOV8R 's advice is...

    Illegal to Fly Over My Neighbor's Back Yard?

    Totally agree, he is very corny, but he does shoot some beautiful drone videos. He is oddly fascinated with radio towers, but since I believe he is a radio DJ for his day job, I get it.

    Illegal to Fly Over My Neighbor's Back Yard?

    We're in complete agreement, here. I was just trying to simplify the situation to indicate that you couldn't take off or land on the private property in question. Your version is more accurate and well said then mine.

    Hello to everyone

    Welcome, Don. No such thing as too old, except maybe fish for sushi. I’m pretty green at this quad stuff too and have learned plenty here. I’m sure you will too.

    I think if he wears a hat that matches his motors, everything will be fine. :D

    Illegal to Fly Over My Neighbor's Back Yard?

    It does seem a bit confusing. My input on the subject is this video from a guy (professional videographer, 107 licensed, etc) who was investigated by the FAA because someone complained to the FAA hotline that he was flying illegally over private property. The FAA's take on this was as long as...

    You may have better luck by posting a few extra details....like brand, price, and maybe a link to your site.

    Yeah - I'm not judging the motor colors - but that chamfered frame and those braided cable covers make it pop.

    idiots keep happening Version 2.0

    It looks pretty real to me on desktop. Aside from demonstrating how stupid some people can be, what bothers me most about the article is the line "draws calls for tougher UAV laws".

    quad picture contest

    Yeah, I agree. But on the bright side, they say cats have nine lives, so that quad has a good chance of surviving eight crashes. o_O

    Learning to fly

    @Fly high here's a playlist from Rotor Riot that shows how to do a variety of tricks with some explanation and a cam on the sticks. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXKJ80BTT1lb_kGy8HIkMx2hVgZA-VbKP Here's the particular one on orbiting:

    Need help on building a quad

    No worries. And thanks for the antenna links - another topic I need to learn more about. Back to builds and parts....I'm also a big fan of Mr. Steele. He puts all the parts he uses in the description of most or all of his videos. He also has a build video that shows how to build something very...
