Hi Guys After a few months of flying, I appear to have collected more than my fair share of broken props (mainly trees that unexpectedly jump out of the earth :o , or the ground suddenly appearing a meter too early :oops: ); does anyone have any good ideas on how to re-purpose/recycle these...

Excellent Logbook - many thanks for sharing.

Greetings... Has anyone here taken the BNUC-S (Part-1) course and sat the exam? How about Part-2? Any tips/pointers/general advice/insights? I am contemplating the financial exploitation of my new-ish hobby :geek: and simply want to know what I could be up against initially in terms of...

Am I too late to the party to enjoy this one?

Many Thanks for this! With regards to the following advice... and ...what would you consider the "right soldering iron" and the "right heat setting" for typical Phantom 2 Vision related tasks? What's your opinion on gas vs electric? Are gas irons any better than electrical ones? Cheers dp

UAV p0rn! Sorry guys.. I'll be back in a moment, I just made a mess... :oops:

Have to say, that this is an excellent idea! If you can't take that on board an aircraft then we're all in trouble!

Are any of these in full production (or shipping) as of yet? For me, watching a disembodied hand waggling his Phantom is okay for a very limited amount of time, I'd like to see some hard-core side-by-side footage.. Safe Flying dp

Also depends on where you intend to go or how far you expect to travel; you may be able to use the original box that it came in or invest in a Pelican case, if you're going to stick your aircraft in the boot of your car or go off-road or even if you're taking it on a real plane. This place...

Hi Guys, Where in the South-East are you people flying your P2V without upsetting the locals and at the same time getting some superb footage that can help convince "wife/gf/significant other" that this is not just another expensive hobby. Safe Flying. dp
