    Controller for Steady Flight

    I need to fly a fairly large Hex coptor indoors for a short while for some investors. I will be considering flying in the room where we are meeting (last choice) or set up a programmed flight to have it move about (mostly up and down) in a atrium. I am planning not to be able to connect to...

    3D Robotics X8+

    Bought the X8+ last week to get set up for aerial surveying, assembly was really easy and this is a solid machine, a bit bigger than I had thought it would be. Eight motors and props turning made me take a step backward. Should have been RTF out of the box but that was not the case, however...

    Picking a Transmitter
