    For Sale DJI Mavic Pro

    Maybe this is an ad for the new Mavic Standard and he doesn't know the difference?

    Need some help calibrating ESC's

    I had a problem similar to this with a Naze32 Full Rev6 and found out they powered the red wire through the Naze32 pin on the Rev6. I had to take the red wire out of the ESC's plug and it worked. I'm using Emax ESC's and motors. I don't if it helps, but it can't hurt?

    Repairing shorted Lipo (Why not to)

    Okay I learned this one the hard way. I wasn't paying attention (can't afford it) and cut both the main wires to add a XT60 connector onto the battery. It sparked and flashed and was quite loud. It DID NOT catch fire or explode (I wouldn't be here if it did), but it did melt the aluminum that...

    First Youtube video

    I know how this goes ... I've had a "few" wrecks. That's a nice big area to play in and a lot of little trees to crash into, how do you miss those and hit the big ones? I need to find a big area like this, too many small neighborhood houses and private lots around my house. I keep hitting our...

    Found a great way to fund my Quad!

    It turns out I had ordered the two 4000mAh batteries with Traxxs plugs. I have since changed them to XT60. The Naze32 Full Rev6 worked like a charm on my 450mm clone frame. I took it back off because it was too much of a hassle to get GPS and an autopilot to work with it. Went for the NAZA-M...

    5 minutes from home. My "go-to" spot when I get the urge to drone.

    Same day soon, I'll be making a video like this. I just have to test the thing out a little longer before I fly over water or out of my sight. Love the video! Wonderful place to play!

    I finally did it! (450mm Quad build)

    I finally got all the parts from China and around the USA to put the little hot rod together! I started out using a Naze32 Full REV6 but that turned out to be a big hassle trying to upgrade it with GPS and an autopilot. So I got a NAZA-M Lite on ebay for dirt cheap. It has everything I needed...

    Thermoelectric Cooler/Heater

    Well where's the fun it that? Isn't more fun to experiment and destroy stuff so it can be posted on YouTube?! I had no idea they actually made a warmer bag already, really thought I was on to something here.

    Found a great way to fund my Quad!

    Oh crap, I already bought two of those batteries, I'll have to wait until I sell more junk on ebay to get the bigger batteries. I am going to be running them in parallel. I can't believe anyone could write code that would tell a circuit board what it's mounted on without a crapload of sensors...

    Found a great way to fund my Quad!

    And my wife doesn't mind. I'm selling all kinds of crap around this house including good 'ole Pennsylvania Anthracite Coal! Mostly stuff up in the attic we both forgot about. Yes, I had a bunch of coal in my attic. Ebay is helping me buy all the stuff I need to do my first quadcopter build! I...

    I got to fly ....

    Just a quick update to this story and my friend's Mavic Pro ..... He had to send it back to DJI. Apparently he was out flying it at our neighborhood soccer field (where I fly too) and it decided to make a side trip of it's own. He hunted in the woods next to the field for many many hours...
