    micro rc

    i'm not ready to start spending+building but longer post time = more feedback: intending to build some very small rc vehicles for ground use. i don't care if they are cars/wheeled or legs/walkers. it needs to be small, have a low profile, and i'll be plopping a micro IR camera on it...

    brushed build

    rec'd 4x 8.5/20mm brushed motors today to plonk on an eachine e011 board. haven't assembled yet, need to construct frame. these items are to knock around for the while until i can budget for more, aspiring for a "more expendable" micro for short range property surveillance. thought i'd throw it...

    all-time greatest quad query

    it's what people want to know - i'm looking at the board on my kingkong micro. there are say half a dozen unsoldered pads on the fcb (i don't know what the board is, proprietary i'm sure) *CAN WE ADD STUFF???* i wanted to ask this about my eachine e011 boards as well, but no clue with them...

    need to replace vTx antenna

    unfortunately, i do not know the part for my vTx, but of course it's 5.8g 16CH 25mW, like most basic fpv boards. i cannot post a piccie of it because banggood doesn't seem to like copying image URLs, it is for the kingkong 110GT here -...

    efficient purchases?

    in brief, please post cost effective purchases for odds and ends! couple weeks ago i ordered a box of m2 hex screws.. someone said their quad showed up without screws to mount the props, i figured i'd need extra (i did!) i only needed m2 at present but i had to buy an assortment of different...

    album inspired by quad flight

    tracks are free to use for fpv vids, but you probably already know what you'd like to use. not really music per se, more an excuse to audition various software algorithms. if you like sample and hold, things that go beep. "fpv" is probably the only one remotely resembling sounds people tend to...

    the thread of fun

    okay, you got me. i bought the drone. i'm sitting with it here. i've been looking at these things online for ?? a month and a half ?? let's see if a forum can do this faster than i can - i'm sitting here with my kingkong 110GT. i've just pushed the props onto the motors. i have a bag of...

    brushless motors

    succinctly after labourious weeks of research, i am able to determine that a 13xx motor uses 9mm spacing on the mounting. this is amazingly helpful to know, bvecause then, i can look for frames with 9mm spacing. on the *off chance* that the frame actually notes it somewhere. i mean, i can...

    help with motor options

    my question is, where, how does one go about discerning classes of motor sizes? eg. my first quad has 7mm motors, which are celebrated as bigger than the ones on the previous model.. sounds logical.. but i'm looking for a larger build, and most of the models i'm loo-king at have 1806 motors...

    first time flyer

    eachine e011 arrived today, i'm starting to wonder if it needs some adjusting to fly. two battery charges now, having the same basic issue of maintaining altitude. increase throttle goes up fast, great, but leaving the control there ("there" being something between getting off the floor and...

    decibels

    okay this sucks since i only just ordered my starter quad and there's no glory in being the fuddy duddy i ordered an eachine e011 to start with - motors are listed at 60000 rpm this is obviously not what's happening at the prop because we *wouldn't be able to hear it* but it is still obvious...

    advice for practical drone

    hi, new to drones briefly, looking for one with IR video feed and 50m range for property surveillance and that's all, but here's the needlessly long, and hopefully entertaining part i'm a curmudgeon i'm old, and have a lot of real tech experience, and am totally disenfranchised from current...
