I received a conformation mail with tracking number last night so my parts should be with me on monday or tuesday all being well.

That's pretty quick then, going to take longer to get my vtx from UK....typical

Post by **danhampson** » Sat Mar 21, 2015 9:18 am

VTX on the way, I like it T.

I've changed the arm and replace the broken standoff.

The weather report for tomorrow is looking good light to no wind and dry all day, it's supposed to be a bit cold though.

Everything is charged up and ready to go, I'm hoping to get the tail tuning finished off tomorrow.

I forgot to mention that I've flashed no naze with 1.8 release candidate firm ware to have a look at a feature that's been added that would have prevented my last crash. So we will see how it goes in the morning.

Good news Dan, 1.8 FW, it was 1.6 when I had it on mine. Sounds like some upgrades there then

Post by **danhampson** » Wed Mar 25, 2015 7:05 pm

Ive done a bit more tuning today, i'm slowly getting there with it. This is the last flight of the day.

Awesome Dan, looks super stable...

Post by **danhampson** » Wed Mar 25, 2015 7:21 pm

it feels as if the roll and pitch i's are a tad on the high side (lttle bit of a jitter in FF) ive adjusted the profiles with slightly lower i's and hope to test in the morning.

Tony · Post by **Tony** » Wed Mar 25, 2015 7:26 pm

That's way beyond my knowledge Dan...lol, but it's looking good.

Looking smooth Dan, maybe up the roll/pitch rate or RC rate for faster flips and rolls.

Post by **danhampson** » Wed Mar 25, 2015 9:46 pm

i'll try that Stambo. I think it's at 0.65 at the moment, I want to try and sort the tail and roll out and then I'll probably up the rate's a bit.

Nice one again Dan:) you are getting really good:) I noticed the flutter at 1.47, thats what mine is doing. Not got the courage to do a flip yet but hopefully soon if i can get my settings right:)

Tony · Post by **Tony** » Thu Mar 26, 2015 8:18 am

Now there's a question Dan, how do you perform a flip? Not that I'll be doing that yet...

Post by **danhampson** » Fri Mar 27, 2015 11:18 pm

LOL. Just push the stick in the direction you want to go and stop when you want (i only fly rate/acro/blah/blah mode). Sound easy hahahaaaaa!!!

BOUNCE Ahhhrrrrr........ bands head against the wall.

Only joking had fun today, first flight was the best. ive been playing with my editing software tell me what you honestly think.

Video was great quality, flying superb as usual, audio was doing my head in.....lol... But I'm an old buga and much prefer to hear the craft. I know others like music..... But both.... Hmmmmm, best with volume off... Haha, that's just me tho Dan...

Graham Lawrie · Post by **Graham Lawrie** » Sat Mar 28, 2015 12:01 am

Good video and editing:) wish i could do that:)

Stambo · Post by **Stambo** » Sat Mar 28, 2015 7:53 am

Nice flight Dan, you have come a long way in a short time.
After adding music to my last vid, I think I too prefer to hear just the raw motors/props.
I think the only audio I will edit from now on will be to turn it down a bit.

Have you flown a helicopter lately?

I don't think I have touched mine since I have had a mini.

Very nice Dan. It looks really smooth.
