    Orientation mode on CX20

    Welcome to the forum, rc! I have a Nova as well. I have not used mission planner so I can't speak to your specific problem but I do know that the Nova depends heavily on compass calibration. I would suggest contacting the HK help line. They have been helpful to me in the past and would be a...

    Stock USB charger question.

    I believe I see where I got my info wrong. When I decided on the Syma X5 and started scouring the net for reviews and mods I didn't know there was a difference in the X5c and X5c1 as well as different Turnigy 1s 750mah batteries. There were mod videos I watched showing how to change the plug and...

    New...to be delivered...or not? Syma X8W

    Not sure how you came up with that. If you read the last few posts, it was a healthy back and forth and humor was being used to keep things lighthearted. I thought my ! would express that instead of :).

    Getting Started

    Welcome Sophia! I would suggest you contact @Mike H. .He has a wealth of information on RTF "toy" quads. I'm confident he can help you to pick a starter that will suit the type of flying you are interested in. Also, start a thread in the Newbie section seeking help in choosing your first quad...

    Stock USB charger question.

    I would be up for that. I don't feel I have given batteries the attention they deserve. I have 4 different brands of 1s batteries and 4 different 2s and 3s. I "broke" my only 4s but I would be willing to wait before replacing it if your friend agrees to do this. It's coming up on winter anyway...

    Stock USB charger question.

    That looks just like the one Mike H. described needed the connector changed to fit the Syma and the +&- wires are reversed. The battery bay also needed to be trimmed as well. Maybe I'm looking at it wrong?

    Are we doomed by the ignorance of the masses?

    Sounds just like "gun control" doesn't it? Apparently toy quads, just like guns, perform these acts of mayhem all by themselves.

    No doubt, but I still think he did the guy in the truck a favor........:D

    Stock USB charger question.

    Yep. The first one (X4 micro from HiTec) is the one I have. On the batteries. I haven't bought any by brand, just by size. I get the 680mah ones because they fit perfectly with no modifications and add 2-4 minutes flight time. A number of folks have been using the Turnigy 750mah battery, but you...

    Stock USB charger question.

    Since I now have 16 1S batteries of various amperage I bought a HiTec x4 Mini charger . I can charge 4 at once of various amperage and it tracks each one as well as monitors the condition of each. I can also charge to exactly 50% for storage. It's about $45.00 on Amazon. I have chargers for 2S -...

    U.S. Will Require Drones to Be Registered

    That's not good. Not good at all. I am going to go read it thru this time. From what you say we may have to ground our Frisbees. This is sounding more and more out of control. I'm going to contact my congressman again.

    AQ-600 Quadcopter components

    I don't know anything about the brand but that's a big motor. You'll need 14" props for example.

    U.S. Will Require Drones to Be Registered

    Ya know.... I just skimmed thru it. Does that mean preteens can't own a quad?

    AQ-600 Quadcopter components

    I just got a new computer and some info and apps didn't synch right so I don't seem to be able to send links and a couple other things. Since you haven't flown before I would suggest getting a small Ready to Fly(RTF) quad to learn on. You will crash a lot in the beginning and you can repair...

    U.S. Will Require Drones to Be Registered

    I agree. 250g total includes way too many quads to be practical. Just about anything that can be flown outdoors is in that category. Trying to register all those would be a nightmare. Especially the ones owned by kids. At least they are thinking of how to pair down the numbers. I don't believe...
