    The incidents highlighted appear to be extremely reckless people who have not considered potential failure modes when conducting high risk operations. Quite possibly these people have just bought a model off the shelf and have thought to just capture video footage with no regard for the platform limitations...

    It's a wonderful thing to have within reach: if there's suddenly very strong winds, IU and a higher headspeed might be the difference between "landing intact" and "parts replacement"

    It's really some form of FSK, GFSK, with a spread carrier if I recall correctly. It's almost but not quite a combination of both as a result.

    What is the consideration behind that question?

    I seem to be having the opposite experience: I get more flight time out of my 250 than my 450, due to the reduced space required. Also, HK makes a cheap 250 kit and DFC head that means all-up costs are around $100, and a spare crash-kit (read "entire flybarred 250 spare") is about $30-40. The 250 ...

    Reply to Damaged main PCB when modifying 9X

    In general, the repair might cost more than the board. However, pictures of the damage might be helpful to assess if it's fixable.

    Reply to Is it ethical to sell items given to you FOC?

    You're not alone on that one. I've given away some stuff only to find it being sold several days later. It's rather upsetting, but I suppose there's very little one can do.

    That's only true if operating at 60A on a heavily loaded circuit. If that is the case, then operate with a lower load, the power supply claiming to be able to supply 60A doesn't mean it will supply 60A into your load....

    WTB: ARTR 1/10 brushless SCT
    by timgoh0
    Looking at a platform to mount and test a ground navigation system. Must have decent ground clearance as will be running it on grass/mud. Don't need Tx/Rx. Brushless preferred, 2s/3s setup. Alternatively, will also consider a crawler. Budget goes up to $200, so let me know if you have something u...

    I'm not too familiar with xplane. I use flightgear, with the dynamics generated by a bunch of machines running a couple of matlab systems model. For RF planning and sensor simulation, I have a couple of matlab scripts, and flightgear offers enough feedback to tie the model into existing sensor modelling...
