I have need for a FPV camera that transmits but not with WIFI. I want it to be able to transmit to goggles. I also want a gimbal that is invertible (stands up than hangs down) This is needed for a special device I am designing. It should be priced moderate to low if possible. Any suggestions...

Seeing and reading all the tech talk tells me I got a lot of learning to do...

Getting the hang of flying this chainsaw. Still likes the trees. Its mother must have been a bird.

I looked at this site. My question is why do the British call it 'loop and hook', when it is still called 'Velcro' here in the U.S.? I can get it anywhere in the USA for allot less than the 2.64 pounds they want for it in the UK. Plus I won't have to pay shipping either. Thank you, anyways, for...

Additional comment: I guess FPV with LOS (Line Of Sight) is still the best course for the small quads with FPV capabilities.

I viewed this video. The theoreticals are right with it. RADAR is the way to go. However, Passive RADAR isn't going to work for a quadcopter because the concern is not flying into an airplane at altitude but a tree or bush at low altitude. A tree or bush is also not likely to give off a radio...

I looked at one of those 'FPV Goggles'. Pricey!

I was told and it happens frequently, that on a serious impact ( not a rotor breaking one), the battery for my U818A Quad has a tendency to slide out of its holder, which makes for added frustration in reinserting it. Thinking about this and trying not to give my brain a hernia, I know that...

I found this white paper on Collision Avoidance using Ultrasonic detection. For those interested in the technical aspect of the paper, please click the following link...

Has anyone come up with a collision avoidance system for quadcopters? It would nice to have such a system so I can forget about crashing into trees, light & power poles, my neighbor's new car, my house, a dumb bird checking it out to see if it's edible. Come on guys, lets get cracking on this...

Someone needs to develop a collision avoidance system for quadcopters. It would need to detect an object at least 3 feet in front of it and then cause the quadcopter to stop and reverse its course. Of course, being in a forest might present other problems but then how many of us fly our quads in...

Do you think I could attach this to my cat so I can see were he goes outside? I suspect he's got several more feeding stations around the neighborhood. He would be like an autonomous low flying drone .

I saw this on our local news station. I could only imagine how he would of felt if he rolled over forgetting where he was. That would have been a real photo op.

I'm still lucky to get my quad to leave the ground before it finds a tree and tries to knock it down. Of course, that can only happen when the wind is not blowing, a phenomena that seldom occurs in Michigan. I guess that's why the electric company is so interested in wind farms here.

One thing here, I get the Quadcopter E-mail Alerts, so everything else should be ok too. My spam folder is always too large to look at. More than often, I delete the contents without looking at more than the first 10 Subjects at most. It's possible that I missed any announcement if it went to my...

Whatever works. I use a company called Mail Chimp for my business mail.

I find that many ISPs block e-mail transmitted through Port #25, if the e-mailer is not certified (by whom I have as yet to arrive at). I use a third-party mailer but that's not useful for the likes of this forum unfortunately.

Went out to Google Maps and found the Corporate Headquarters for HoverThings, Inc. Here is the Google Map link if you care to see the corporate headquarters...

If you compose the address and put it into Google Maps, you can get his location picture and a map to get there. I did and saw it was a house. There is also a number of photos of a quad he built. What you want to do with that info is up to you.

I'll check them out, thanks...
