Re: Goodluckbuy Gimbal Questions Did you have the camera installed? Mine did that too until I mounted the go pro. It's setup to deal with the weight, without it it will freak out

Or you can just spend $35.99 + $10 s&h and get a perfect case. My phantom came w a case, picked this up for my350qx and it's a better case. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008FP5BO2/ref ... 1_ST1_dp_1

Re: So annoyed with Hobbyking - is there US store for RC stu I placed an order on the 9th, 20 days later it's like it vanished. No tracking. HK says it sent weeks ago. I keep seeing bits here and there about the super long waiting times, and a recent week long national holiday didn't help...

For stock weight, one battery, no gizmos hanging off it, the cheap chi com 8" props work fantastic. But if you add any weight at all (mines getting to be a flying pig) then I can't say enough good things about these cheap 9" from china. They work fantastic, so well I'm going to pick up another...

I really like my little Tenergy TB-6AC 50W/5A. I run a splitter that goes from 2-3 cell balance plug to 1-6 port plug. The lead plugs into a lead plug on the supplied octopus (I think it picked a Deans, but it doesn't matter) that fakes the charger into thinking its one big 6 cell battery. I...

That is not making sense. The load and or overall weight of the Phantom should have nothing to do with how high (altitude) it can travel. It may effect how FAST it gets there, but not the altitude. As well, setting the home point (power up, sat acquisition and motor start) should also...

Pretty **** clever man. I love fabbed up goodies with stuff lying around the garage. Well done.

I wonder how most flyaways happen? It's a head scratcher. :roll: :mrgreen:

I just ordered one. I wasn't going to be a gimbal guy but I couldn't resist the price. I have some sheets of CF laying around so I might play with replacing some of the plates, struts etc. with that and see if I cant lighten it up a bit. :mrgreen:

Why the frown? You're good. "Promotion Plan: New Promotion MAP will be valid from 9th, Sep, 2013. For end customers who bought a Phantom before 9th, Sep, 2013, DJI will provide a credit of USD 150. This credit can only be used to buy a Phantom II or a Phantom Vision, once they are released...

I was thinking a polished off phantom 1 with a Miami Vice color scheme and a Pez dispenser on the radio. I'm actually very impressed with what they did to it. No joke, they've raised the bar to a whole new RTF package. Wow. My only concern is what appears to be some proprietary durables...

Hahahahaha. Nice

Another FOUND! Tossed my son on the roof and he found the little qx no problem.

I'd like to see your setup if you don't mind. Inside and out. Great mod

Ahem... I believe I called it! Had to be on one of those roofs (I know exactly where u were, band I was in used to practice in one of those shops). Outstanding!! How'd you find it? Another UVA? While we are on the subject, my,son and I were practicing flipping our nanos tonight in...
