    non conductive screws?

    Doing some digging I found that the screws on the motors were a little long. Added a motor guard and the issue went away.

    My first MultiGP race event

    So I joined a FPV group called Safety Third awhile back to meet more folks in my area who fly. They have a MultiGP chapter and they occasionally hold races. I attended one of their fun fly events and quickly learned that I need to get a lot better at flying through gates (been flying freestyle...

    non conductive screws?

    So I have this 180 build I did that has been working great. I flew it at an indoor event and it flew fine and the OSD was working well. I was at a multiGP event yesterday and brought the quad to fly since I'm used to it the most. During the practice time I noticed that the OSD was flashing...

    Bad News

    His videos area amazing and he'll be missed. Every time I got a new piece of hardware I didn't know how to wire, not only did he have a video on how to do it, but usually a whole playlist of everything you can do with it. While I didn't watch him for his flying primary, his technical skills...

    A fun flying day

    Yeah I had a couple crashes that weren't fatal. Did a bit of walking to find them as well. But all in good fun. Next time the batteries I use are on sale will have to get some more. Would love to have around 20 batteries to have an awesome flying day.

    A fun flying day

    So today I achieved another first in my FPV flying career - ran out of batteries to fly. I was a field about 40 minutes from my house since I was testing out a glider my wife got me for my birthday. Brought three quads with me to fly as well. Two I've had tuned down for quite a bit now, one...

    is my vtx burned?

    I've busted VTX's before in a crash. Make sure you place them in a way the frame will take the impact and not the VTX.

    Stover Park Racing Day

    Yeah that park is great since it's the back of where my oldest goes to school. Its mowed often so easy to find crashed quad. The flags my friend has because she runs a drone camp that I help teach. We actually were there to help her learn how to use the Inspire 1 drone, but she had issues...

    Stover Park Racing Day

    So this footage is combined from iPhone, iPad, fat shark dvr, and GoPro. Im still waiting on my GoPro mount that will angle it correctly since I fly with the fpv camera at about 30 degrees now. So enjoy the footage. I wanted to show progression of me getting better on this track I designed. I...

    Another practice session...

    I agree....I love watching amazing people fly and trying to learn how they do that.

    Some Acro and Low flying....

    Watching Jerry's practice session I got the courage to post mine. I flew two quads on this day. The first was a 250 so the action cam fit on it nice and tight. The second is a Rammus 180 frame thats really narrow. I didn't have the action cam on for one flight and got it on for the other. I...

    Another practice session...

    Awesome footage! Nice to see you doing some power loops, they are lots of fun. What angle is your camera set at? Now your making me think about posting my recent flying time.

    Looking for FC recommendation

    Looks good. Will have to pick it up next pay day. I'm up to six quads now....and I'm building another. Do I have a problem or is this normal?
