    Dizzy from dancing

    I've had successful flights with my Naza V2 controlled 450 quad, no serious crashes w/this one. But now I'm having a problem trying to calibrate via the "naza dance". Everything functions as expected, but after a 360 degree rotation (nose down) with the green led, I consistently get a rapidly...

    programming runcam

    I haven't had much luck with my searching, so I'll start another thread. Does anyone here have a link to simple, concise instructions for loading new parameters into the runcam from the runcam config. tool? I've watched soooo many videos, and tried sooo many variations on the saving and...

    New replacement arms fpr my quad

    Well, I'm satisfied with the paint job, so now I'm ready to start re-building my quad. The carbon fiber arms that came with the Alien Bee proved to be rather destructible, only 2 survived the last crash. So I had to do what I could with materials available. I cut these new arms from aircraft...

    recurring prob. with Naza M Lite

    Wondering if anyone else has had this problem with DJI. Four times I have had seemingly successful flights with my quad controlled by DJI M Lite, right up until final approach for a manual landing. Each of the 4 times, the craft has come within 100' of take-off location, when suddenly, without...

    Should I be concerned?

    Had great success with my first build today. The Naza M Lite allowed me a successful dance, recognized sufficient satelites, and seemed agreeable to an airborne adventure. With no props on the motors, I moved the sticks to extremes, the motors armed, and I was in control! WOO HOO...

    Screwy question

    I hope someone in this forum can help me. I'm dealing with Jrelics A2212 1000KV motors. I need to get some mounting screws to attach them to the carbon fiber arms of my Bee. The major diameter of the screws (across the top of the threads) measured .116" with my calipers. Metric conversion...

    can't get any altitude.

    Here we go again. I got a Discovery HD U818-1-P in December. It was flying very well when weather permitted. After a while the bird got to the point where it just couldn't climb. I'd just seem to ride on the ground bubble. I knew I had really worn the 2 batteries that came with it...

    ??? about lipo batteries

    I'm still confused about these darn lipos. All I've been able to research on line says don't overcharge them and don't drain them too much (with varying opinions on how much is too much). To store them charge them to about half capacity. ? I think. I've recently received no less than 7 new...

    Alien Copter Bee frame kit

    Just wondering if anyone in this forum has had any experience with the AC Bee 450? Received the carbon fiber kit Friday, and it went together very well. The PDB shipped was similar to ones I've seen on u-toob build blogs, but I only got the ring, and none of the other boards and pins and leds...

    central New Mexico area?

    Looking for local area fliers who wouldn't mind a "newbi" showing up to watch your next flight and ask a lot of dumb questions. Planning my first build, and boy do I have a lot of questions.

    CMOS OR CCD?

    Ok, I'm going for the stupid question of the day here. Can anyone briefly explain the difference between cmos and ccd cameras? Which do you guys prefer?

    Lasic monovision and FPV goggles?

    I'm wondering if anyone using FPV goggles has had any issues because of monovision created by Lasic eye surgery. Hate to buy something like FatShark and not be able to see well. Perhaps a 7" LCD display mounted to tx would be preferable? Any thoughts?

    ready for first build

    I have become addicted by the discoverhd I received for Christmas. Now it's time for something more serious. Not going to race, but want to build reliable, maneuverable photo platform with FPV capabilities. Anyone have experience with the S500 frame? Looks interesting, I'm thinking I want...
