    SD Card for H501s

    Thanks. I'll echo your advice on multiple, smaller cards being better than one large one. The one time I lost a card that mattered - it really, really mattered. That event caused me to move from relying on one 64GB card for several days to carrying 4-5 cards with me. If I got something really...

    Split S under a truck?

    Nice grind. I've seen some videos of people grinding their quads before but it's only for a brief touch and usually against a smooth metal or glass surface.

    Remote Pilot – Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems Study Guide

    For anyone looking into this, the free video I mentioned above worked like a champ. This morning I passed the 107 knowledge test with an 85%. My total time invested was watching the video twice, reviewing his study page, and taking two free practice tests - so maybe 5 hours of total study time...

    HAM Radio License for FPV

    I appreciate the input, but I figured I’d go ahead and get the Technician license since I’d already spent time looking into it. Happy to say I passed the test yesterday. Pretty painless and I learned a lot more about antennas - which I feel will pretty useful info.

    Controller of an OCD riddled man.

    I like it. While I have a bit of the OCD myself - I mostly like it because I'm getting older and more forgetful about that kind of stuff, so I'll definitely be copying your idea. The OCD side of me would have used black tape with white letters though. :D

    SD Card for H501s

    Here's a chart that estimates amount of recording time by card size and HD settings. While it's written for Sandisk cards, the numbers should be pretty close for most cards...

    The Case for the H501s- Flying w/o Propeller Guards

    This is why mine are coming off the next time it's not too windy to fly outside. With my lack of skill, I'm not sure how much it will help, but only one way to find out.

    Need help regarding my "Stack"! *Plz help*

    I don't know about your other questions, but I've seen a couple guys that do build videos that ream out the holes a little on the FCB. They just used a small round needle file.

    How drones fly........a short tutorial.

    I always thought the mystical force was the magic smoke contained within the quad components and that's why people have to be careful when soldering parts together so the magic smoke doesn't come out.

    Another newb that needs help

    Maybe try asking Mr. Steele as a comment on the video where he does this build? I don't know if he responds to questions, but other builders do so may be worth a try.

    Flying with live video

    I don't know the specifics on your quad, but based on the build videos I've watched on youtube, you may be able to just buy a new 5.8 transmitter and hook your camera and power to it. Another option is an "all-in-one" which combines the FPV camera and the transmitter in one unit. Again, as...

    Thanks for the Advice- I pulled the Trigger

    Nice. After reading your thread and others, I've added one of those to my shopping list. Now I just have to wait for some more funds in the hobby budget.

    Thanks for the review and information, @DrAbsurd - using a sim like this for training is in my plans after I start getting setup for FPV.

    Camera does not work on new Hubsan H501S x4

    Yeah - I think it's one of those things that SHOULD be very simple, but due to so many vendors' different implementations, it sometimes isn't so simple. Glad to hear you are returning the drone and hopefully the replacement (or different model) will work much better for you. Funnily enough...
