first on deck.
If I used a different brand transmitter and receiver would they still work?
I think it is best to mention that the various designs in frames address
the different demands a given track or course have.
You wouldn’t get as good performance with a 250 H quad running 5in props on
a very tight and twisty course as a 4in prop X quad. By the same token-
that 4in quad would not be as competitive on a long and fast track where
the copter can get to the top end of it’s speed more often.
Tight tracks require torque and quick responses where open and fast tracks
require top end speed and stability to hold a line at speed.
Deadcat and H frames are better suited for open and long tracks while X
frames rule the tight track all individual pilot skill aside. (some guys
are so fast no matter what they fly)
nice
I thought there was a subliminal message at 11:28 :D
Oh man! another drone video 🙁
come on guys! mix it up a bit all I see is 360 recording and drone videos
For Kevin McKays X frame quad where would you put the battery that really
confuses me
Please cover tri copters 🙂
Post script. Yt keeps unsubbing me to your channels. I know they have beer
doing automated spring cleaning which removes innactive or banned accounts,
but I am neither. Just a heads up
when are you guys flying against the Know How guys?
