RC-Hangout

I've just used my old 450 skids for new landing gear, she certainly does skid along the deck now.... It mint....

Very cool Tony:) I was going to do the same but had no spare 450 skids:)

It's much better than the 4 posts Graham. I always worry about those digging into ground on a bad landing and snapping the arms... Weight has increased by only 25g so not bad....

Looks fantastic Tony.
Nice stable platform for you.

That's really good, Tony! I like it!

Thanks guys, I can land anywhere now without the worry of snapping legs off. Worth the extra 25g in weight.. I done a Lee yesterday and caught it, no worries....lol. Got about 30mph winds today so that's going to be fun...

Careful Tony, remember to count your fingers after catching:) Rain and gales here no flying today:(

Lol, no worries Graham. No rain here yet and the wind won't stop me flying, makes it more fun and challenging...I'm getting the feel of this quad now, it's just awesome....I've no idea what mode it's flying in, but I ain't touching it...it has self level but I can tip it almost vertical against the wind and that's cool for me....

Are you on Cleanflight Tony?

No, I've got openpilot Graham, Dan said he tried to put CF on the board before he sent me it but couldn't get it to load. So if he can't then I ain't trying coz I'll nack it....

Cleanflight wouldn't flash because the cc3d is on 15.01 or what ever the latest on is. I flashed it with that firmware because it now has oneshot and I wanted to see what else had changed.
Cleanflight will flash but the board then isn't recognised (soft bricked) to Unbrick it I had to flash it to open pilot 14.10 and then upgrade it to 15.01, the board was then recognised but the software once more

Thanks for that Dan, I'm happy with whatever is on it mate.. It flies great and im having loads of fun. So best not tamper....lol, one day I'll get a new FC then I can follow you guys setting it up...

I like it. Throw some LED strips on the skids and you'll have the neighbors looking up the number to the local MUFON chapter.

LOL... Thanks Paul, that's a job pending. Got some rgb ones to put on....
