    Full thrust question..

    So when I was flying my s500 today with a 4s 5200Mah lipo and 935kv motors I decided to have some fun and go full throttle a few times starting from just a few meters off the ground.

    My DIY drone flips without command

    Hey guys. Last month I was taking out my 450 quad for a flight. I began to take off and as I reached enough thrust to get off the ground, the two right motors throttled up a lot more without my command and it flopped over, breaking the props. My latest shipment of props just came in (after...
