DAMN IT! So I burned 3 ESC 2 days ago because I AM AN IDIOT! I totally spaced on the type of battery I have connected to test the motors

I just ordered another $75 worth of ESC's. OH and the RIGHT batts this time.

I got the 30A blue series and im flashing them with SimonK for super quick response.

Anyone else you these?

The ones I have now (well the 4 I have left ) are the Mystery Fire Dragon. I flashed them also with SimonK anyone use these?

I just wanted to try another brand cause I was having problems calibrating the Mystery and I have the blue ones on another quad and I know they work. Im tired of fussing with it and want to fly this damn thing already.!

I did finish the 3d printed gimble Well I I have it together I still need to give it a acetone bath to strengthen and smooth it.

On a carbon fiber plate with some rubber bushings in between two plates.

Hate to be "that guy", but you really shouldn't be flying over the freeway like in your first vid.

To actually be "that guy" you have to have your facts straight. Thats not me! I would not do this.

That was another person.

Just stumbled on this thread, had no idea the owner was a calgunner.

I've been to EHobbyhouse several times and every time been very happy with the service. Last time I was in there one of the employees (green hair at the time... I think??) was helping out a young kid with an Indutrix. He spent a great deal of time and effort into not only helping the kid get it flying (props on wrong) he explained the whole thing to the kid so he understood the quad so he wouln't have issues in the future. I was really impressed, far too often you get the opposite at hobby shops.

How long ago did you move?

I'm looking into quadcopters you can program with a computer. I've found the Parrot AR and Parrot mini-quads as well as something called a Codrone.

I also found a thread in another forum where a guy hacked a SYMA x5, but I didn't really understand what he did.

I have been considering getting into the FPV racing drones, Not for racing, just because they look fun as hell and pretty affordable.

Check out Uavfutures on YouTube. He reviews a lot of affordable fpv setups
