    suggestions for first radio ?

    yes luckily FCs are cheap, I started with a MultiWii because I saw it used in projects similar to mine, probably a bit old in fact I'm thinking of upgrading it but since shipping times are endless in the meantime I'd like to try the receiver on the MultiWii if possible, but I'm not sure how. the...

    Do you mean this ? https://it.aliexpress.com/item/F4-PRO-V2-Flight-Controller-Built-in-OSD-BEC-Drone-for-Betaflight-Low-Noise-Stable-for/32891137083.html can you explain me why with pros and cons compared to similar? for the radio I ended up buyig a Turnigy Evolution W/TGY-IA6C receiver...

    suggestions for first radio ?

    for sure thinking about future FlySky is a better choice, but this costs me the half and I don't think I'll ever need more than this

    suggestions for first radio ?

    yes I know that depends, just wanted to know an average in normal conditions, to get an idea. the last I linked, is on sale and on the internet I've seen good reviewes, do you know it?

    suggestions for first radio ?

    I know that probably these transmitters have limits in pairing with other receivers, modes, programming etc. anyway Turnigy should be a reliable brand and for the moment I don't think I'll buy more than one drone, if the receiver is compatible most common FCs is enough for me. what about a...

    suggestions for first radio ?

    I'd rather something cheaper, what about the two linked? the receivers are included and seem to fit the FC, but there isn't a compatible table

    suggestions for first radio ?

    I'm looking for my first radio for my homebuilt with MultiWii FC. I'd like to spend the minimum but not throw away the money for a basic reliable radio. I'm undecided between these two: - https://hobbyking.com/it_it/hobby-king-2-4ghz-4ch-tx-rx-v2-mode-2.html -...

    questions about LiPo upgrade

    What is a good price for a LiPo 4S 5000mah 20C or similar (excluding shipping)? Do you know anyone or some good site where to look for?

    MultiWii Flight Controller logic-level is 3.3v?

    I didn't use those specs. anyway if all the FCs use MSP I can control all of them with this protocol? I'm looking for a new FC with these specs: - cheap - compatible with the library - best hovering (immobile, for stable video) and precision of maneuverability - with GPS functions can you...

    questions about LiPo upgrade

    I'll think about creating a cable with ring terminals to plug the IMAX to the motorcycle battery, even it wouldn't be very practical. the motors load current is 14.5A then I need a C rating of at least 58A. considering other components 62,4A could be fine? I found this one...

    questions about LiPo upgrade

    now I'm using a SKYRC IMAX B6 MINI, I know it is for 1S only, I meant to ask if there are for 4S. I have a USB power supply on my motorbike that puts 3.1A, but maybe is there a charger I can directly connect to the 12V battery? so in the worst case the motors could overheat and burn...

    questions about LiPo upgrade

    So a lighter battery wouldn't compensate the minor capacity? I'm having difficulty finding batteries with these specs. I noticed only now that the specs of motors says voltage: 11.1V, so I can't use them with a 4S? in that case should I still buy 2212 motors or what else? for C rating should I...

    questions about LiPo upgrade

    I'd like to upgrade my drone's LiPo from 3S to 4S. my configuration is: - 330mm frame - 8045 propellers - 2212 920Kv motors - 30A ESCs - 3S 4500mAh 30C LiPo (a little less than 280g) - weight around 970g I think now the battery is a bit too heavy even if of big capacity and that using a lower...

    MultiWii Flight Controller logic-level is 3.3v?

    the python library uses the MSP protocol, I'm using a Raspberry to control the drone from the smarthone. I'm still working on it but the idea is to build an intelligent drone like the one in the instructable I linked, where it seems that the Raspberry TX is directly connected to the MultiWii RX...

    MultiWii Flight Controller logic-level is 3.3v?

    I chose MultiWii because there is a python library that I use to send RC commands with the Raspberry and all projects of this kind I saw use it, do you know another FC with which I can do this?

    MultiWii Flight Controller logic-level is 3.3v?

    I'm using a Raspberry to control a MultiWii Flight Controller V2.5 by using this FTDI USB to TTL adapter. I've seen in this instructable they instead just use a cable from Raspberry TX to MultiWii RX, but I'm not sure they have the same voltage because the Raspberry logic-level is 3.3v and I...

    quadcopter configuration opinion

    they load 14.5A each, then almost 60A, but I bought ESCs with greater ampacity for future motors updagrades I prefer buy the right cable

    quadcopter configuration opinion

    I have to buy a deans connector wire for the battery to solder to the bottom board, but online I read incongruity about AWG and ampacity, considering I have 30A ESCs which AWG I need ? As both motors and ESCs have enough long wire, I'm thinking about putting the ESCs in the middle instead of...

    are there better alternatives to the multiwii fc always Arduino written?
