Yup shouldnt be powering up with the right stick. At idle none of the motors should be increasing power without throttle input from the left stick. Try recalibrating it.And be careful of those props!

What size battery do you have on that? I have a 150 with a 2s 1600 mah. Went to 4-blade props and its still too heavy

Make sure the Florida sun in that car isn't too hot and warps anything . Even if you leave it in the shade that warm breeze will dry it nicely.man I just got jealous!

When I saw Kiss in your title all I thought about was Gene Paul Peter and Ace. So maybe Im not the guy to respond, but good luck;)

If there was no power supplying it when it hit the water then I think youre in good shape. Youre doing the right thing by waiting a week. Put it in a warm dry space and let it dry. Ill bet itll be fine. Good luck. Make sure anything like the fc and receiver arent holding moisture if they are...

Pretty steady video for what it is. So its all fixed? Just had some bad motors? Kinda weird but im not surprised. Nothing surprises me when qiads are involced. Well im glad youre back in the air! Enjoy ;)

Sweet! I have a few HPIs myself but nothing 1/5th. My biggest is a Traxxas XMAXX (that my ugly mug in the pic)

Mustve been really cool having your own shop. I remember going to a national rc car event in New Jersey (im in ct). I remember how amazed I was at how good the pros were. Blew my mind! Welcome to the forum Al ;) The people here are friendly without being condescending . Ive learned alot from...

Its a tarot 650 frame with emax 380kv motors and 15" carbon fiber props. I run 2 10000 mah lipos wired for 6s. Fc is a tarot zyx-m. My radio is a radiolink AT9. My plan is to install a tarot gimbal with a hero 3/4 with fpv as well. I also have a 280 and a 150 i built . I also have about 10...

My last quad had a zyxm but I went so high in fpv I got disoriented and it drifted so far that even on gps mode i lost battery power and it went down. Spent days looking for it. Got so mad I built a bigger badder quad. The one i have now can pick up a small dog lol.( no I didnt do it) but...

heres my main quad havent put a gimbal on it yet but soon. I just have a mobius under it fixed. Very fun!

Im not familiar with that particular quad but I can give you a bit of advice. If the recipient of this quad is a first timer with no experience, dont even venture into fpv just yet. One needs to learn to fly first, and flying fpv is not easy. Youtube videos are deceptive. It takes ALOT of...

Well metal does contract and expand with temp changes maybe the bearings in the motors dont agree with the cold. Do the props seem tight when your out there?the plastic parts will also get quite brittle, making them break easier. As you said, batteries will not last as long either. Ive flown out...

Fair enough ;) Youre always welcome here! Were all just trying to figure this out. Dont think for a minute that anyone has it all figured out, we just try to share what we know as individuals. So welcome to the mystery that is the quadcopter or as the media calls it... the drone!!!!!

Is that a 3d printed body?

Batteries?

Ok you have 30amp esc's. How many amps/ volts is that freaking car battery putting out??( damaging levels Id suspect). You need a proper battery for starters; thats what Renov8r was alluding to. How hot are these parts getting? What PDB? FC?. Without the proper info theres no way in hell we...

Theres been another thread on this quad. http://quadcopterforum.com/threads/sk450-problems-with-copter-and-hobbyking.5922/ Little different setup but has a cpl vids in there

What quad/ transmitter is this anyway? Prob shouldve asked that first

When you plug in the battery, is the quad somewhat lvl? Thats when it records what "lvl" is.
