    JJRC H8D Review

    LOL, isn't that the truth. I have some cheap ceramic magnets I use to hold my loose screws. They also come in handy for sweeping up any that hit the floor.

    Advice for visualising orientation (nose in hovering, etc)

    Yea you just got to keep at it . One thing though, just random flying around isn't much help, you need a plan. Practice one maneuver at a time.

    Searching my first DIY Drone (Quadcopter)

    I can't tell if you are just a shill for this unknown endeavor, if not I apologize. But it sure doesn't look like something for a first quad. Is it even available? Especially for being 3D printed.

    JJRC X1 Quadcopter - Opinion

    Seems good, nice flyer. Looks kinda like this one. http://www.banggood.com/HiSKY-HMX280-HMX-280-4CH-2_4G-6-Axis-Gryo-RC-Quadcopter-CC3D-FC-RTF-p-983329.html The HiSky though gives you a decent 6 channel radio with a 6 model memory, which means you can setup 6 quads with discrete settings...

    Don't know exactly what you mean but this Phantom TX has a lot less 'things' on it than my inexpensive TX.

    Looking for feedback on settings and methods?

    Your 10" props are probably spinning slower. What exact motors are you using, that will usually help with choosing the right prop. Are you using different colored props front vs. rear? Black props tend to disappear so keep that in mind. A bet a combo of colored props and a ball thingy (cheap...

    Has anybody used this Chinese quad parts website?

    Like I said "without them there would be no hobby." And if China shut down tomorrow the USA would have a lot more on their mind than toy quads.

    Battery Cycling

    Motor Vibration Problems!!

    Anything will work. I have a long, thin finishing nail (leveled) pounded into the side of my desk. Perfect? Not exactly. Good enough? Sure is. I've also used it to balance my power lawn mower blade after sharpening. :)

    Good Drone books?

    Craig Issod does a very nice job with correct grammar to boot. Very well written and formatted. Proper paragraphs, line breaks and punctuation. Not the confusing and hard to read wall of text as is often seen on forums.
