    How about using smaller props with shallow angle and less powerful battery,..

    Air mode... Do you need it for stunts?

    That's how I felt when I discovered 'The Truth' lol.. It's like a revelation, but remember, I think we're supposed to keep it secret ;-) haha

    Air mode... Do you need it for stunts?

    Yeah, you're obviously in the know.. And I have seen the vid you posted and it's really helpful.. I've seen other pilots in other forums talk about how stupid they felt expecting the quad to operate with no throttle, we watch others doing stunts and observe the sticks as a graphic with zero...

    Air mode... Do you need it for stunts?

    So, after a couple of months learning acro I dared to try my first roll... Only to see my mini quad tumble out of the sky like it was drunk. I tried again, same thing. I go back to YouTube, yep I'm doing it right (I'm thinking) it seems so easy in the simulator, i go out, try again, same...

    UK gearing up to legislate

    Hi, I believe the drone hitting plane wing is just cgi.. There is a video of how somebody made it. Fake news, clickbait, very unhelpful of the maker.. I'm thinking, robots and drones will be used by businesses around the world, the skies and streets will be full of them. Government IS...

    What do you need to get before Start a Drone Racing

    Hi, if I may, I'd like to add the option of using a drone flight simulator like Liftoff or DRL Drone racing league simulator. You can learn to fly level mode, acro mode and i think air mode is kinda integrated into acro.. When i switched to acro from level mode on my 2nd outing I found it...

    Just had a visit from the police...

    Yeah, I wasn't worried at all.. I knew the law better than him. The police in UK are a mixed bunch, like anywhere else, you get good and bad ones. This guy was a good one thankfully. I would be a little hesitant to get into an argument with a cop in USA cos they have guns lol, but I guess you...

    Just had a visit from the police...

    Good Good shout.. I do live in a rural area and the landowners I've met so far are pretty mean spirited and any discussion is one sided bordering on violent. I'm an outdoor kinda guy and love sleeping out in my hammock and again you have to be stealthy to have any fun. I advise anyone to...

    Just had a visit from the police...

    I'm very jealous right now..... So far I have been moved on by council workers in orange land rovers near a local tip, I've had a farmer sneak up behind me and start screaming at me with a rock in his hand (which he had gotten from the dry stone wall behind him) and lately this last episode...

    Just had a visit from the police...

    At the moment, there is nothing to stop you going and buying a drone and taking it out flying, as long as the drone weighs less than 20kg and you are not using it for commercial reasons. However, you must avoid flying it within 150 metres of a congested area and 50 metres of a person, vessel...

    Just had a visit from the police...

    Heard a knock at the door, answered it, local policeman says hello and asked if he could come in. I said no, he then asks me if I'd been flying a drone up in a local field, I said yes and invited him in... Cos it was pretty cold... Earlier I'd been flying a miniquad in a quiet field nearby...

    Weird!!!

    Hi, Sounds like you're in headless mode.. There's acro mode, level mode and headless mode, headless mode will fly in the direction you send it but it will not have a front or back.. Ken
