Nice one Kev:) and a good place with a few obstacles to fly round as you get used to it:)

KevG · Post by **KevG** » Sun Mar 08, 2015 7:36 pm

Yeah that was just a quick place to get too, can't see me going there much as it's the council offices, lol drone wars would be on if I kept going back there

Yes short bursts for me i think,

My first FPV flight lasted all of 5 minutes.
My hands didn't stop shaking for about 15 more.
But I was hooked.

Yeah Stambo to be honest it was a thrill ride, can't wait till next go now,

Big open area next time though I think

Well guys I took the quad up for some FPV last night, and done all of 30 secs, got out on to the feild Turing to come back and lost reception was just inputting some fwd pitch and it just barrel flopped out of the sky, bounced well though apparently,

Damaged from 30ft fall, NOWT!!!!!

Lee · Post by **Lee** » Sat Apr 18, 2015 6:57 am

It must be catching Kev.
I just had the same thing with the QAV a couple of days ago.
Fell from about 20ft, but luckily it was flat at the time.
Only thing broken was the Gimble sensor, as it hit the ground and smashed the circuitry

Note to self, don't use crappy clone RX on an expensive model, even if it is just to test it

KevG · Post by **KevG** » Sat Apr 18, 2015 7:20 am

Yeah I had ORX on mine and both antenna were pointing the opposite side of the turn so it was blocked by the frame,

Specy rx and sat back on it now, just wish they done a ppm rx.

Glad you escaped no damage. Makes me think I should swap the RX on mine now.

Here you go guys first FPV flight with the Alien build, and I loved it, so much more stable a platform to learn FPV.

Look'n good!

Looking nice and solid mate, have you done much tuning?

KevG · Post by **KevG** » Thu Jun 04, 2015 6:08 pm

Loads and loads Dan, you know me, lol

It's on my initial settings, not done a stitch, but I do have a bit of a twitch on it,

Nice flight Kev:)

That was a great flight Kev, kept it at a steady altitude too, your doing great...

KevG · Post by **KevG** » Fri Jun 05, 2015 7:10 am

Tony that's a lot to do with the Naza controller, its immense and gives me a hell of a lot of confidence, if you get into trouble I can let go of the sticks and gps and alt hold will kick in,

it was great fun and cant wait to go again,

Tony · Post by **Tony** » Fri Jun 05, 2015 7:16 am

An investment worth having then. My next quad will have to have GPS etc for sure..
