    New Logo!

    Your eyes aren't deceiving you. We had a new logo designed and just added it to the forum! The old logo was almost 10 years old and it was time to spruce up the design of this place a bit =) *I still need to fix how it displays on mobile though. It's pretty small in portrait mode. Thanks, Mike

    Server Maintenance (coming soon)

    Hello all - I am working with my hosting provider to schedule a server upgrade in the next few days. I will post again when this happens, but because I'm doing a complete Linux OS upgrade, I will be building out a new server on the new OS version and moving the data there to avoid any issues...

    A few more ads...

    Just a heads up - you may see a few more ads throughout the site than just what you've been used to seeing in the header. This is a recent change we made to allow Google Adsense to place ads "optimally" on the site. We're still trying to keep a clean look (unlike a lot of other forums), so...

    Go Go Bird **GIVEAWAY**

    Before I start - this is open to people with US shipping addresses only. It will cost more than the product is worth to ship international. This isn't exactly a quadcopter, but this company reached out about sending a sample and I agreed as long as they sent two so I can give one away on the...

    R450 v1 Frames $10 Shipped (to US)

    Hello! I have a bunch of R450 quadcopter frames to get rid of. These are originally from RCTimer. They're basically a clone of the DJI Flamewheel F450 glass fiber frame that everyone used to build their quads with. They are the v1 frame (no built in PCB). I have built a couple of different...

    Missing Posts / Threads / Avatars

    After investigating the issues we've had, I can confirm that it looks like we lost most posts/threads from Friday, May 3. I'm still working on the missing avatars issue. I should have those in backups and can hopefully restore them.

    Forum Down Time

    I just attempted to upgrade the forum software. That was a bust! 2.5 hours of down time =( Sorry guys! It's 2:00 AM here now. I will try again tomorrow after I figure out what went wrong. I restored from backup, but we shouldn't have lost any posts since I took a snapshot right before the...

I also want to thank you all for being members of the community we've built around this awesome hobby! I've been so busy these past few months that I didn't even get a chance to get the...

    Forum is up!

    Sorry guys, we've been having a lot of issues with our hosting provider lately. The forum was down for more than a day. Everything seems good now, but we're looking into what's going on with our servers.

    Forum back up!

    Sorry. Not sure what's going on with our hosting, but this is the second time we've had the site hard down for at least an hour in the past couple months. Going to look into it further to see what's going on. Everything should be good now though! Thanks, Mike

    Merchant Tag

    You may notice some members with the "Merchant" tag on their name. If we notice users posting "reviews" or other information that shows bias toward or against a company and we confirm after investigating that they are actually representing a company, we will slap the "Merchant" tag on their...

    The forum is back online!

    *We're also sending this out as an email to registered members. There's nothing worse than getting this email from the company who hosts your web servers: Unfortunately, the site was down for more than a full day before they got to this point. From there, we had to spin up a new environment...

    quadcopterframe.com (everything marked down)

    A while back, we started quadcopterframe.com to make a few bucks to pay for the hosting of this forum. We made a few sales here and there, but never even sold out our initial inventory, so I just marked everything down about up to 40% to start clearing it out so we can get some newer, more in...
