Big shout out to ImpluseRC for this weeks prize. They kicked it off with the alien, smashed it with the racing helix and now are set to take over with the NEW REVERB FRAME – REVERB – check it out now. Also the move is going well, should back in about a weeks time or so. Im at trevs right now using his internet to upload this because i dont have internet at my new house yet.
Hey Gents, congrats on the new place Stew! Out of all the gear you currently use, what do you think you will be using for the longest and what are you planning to replace next?
Hey guys,
Curious how many quads you guys have lost (never gotten back, not broken). Flyaways, stuck in trees where you couldn’t retrieve them etc…?
Stew, Would you shave your head to match GT and CTC!?? Make a bet and if you lose if you have to join the hairless crew!
Heya GT, CTC, and Stew. What percentage of your viewers do you think had to pause and google what a drop-bear was? Aus is a dangerous place!
Hey gents, love your work… Stew, has Trev made room for his bar fridge yet?
Hello Stew, Trev and Cal. Been watching all your Haych D footage and love it. I am fixing to take on my first build and was wondering which one of your builds do you recommend for freestyle on a budget. Probably something that isn’t possible. Keep up the good work guys.
I am learnng to fly my quad. I have been doing LOS. When I try FPV, I can’t tell my altitude (3 and 10 feet look the same). Any advice?
Hey guys, thanks for doing these videos. Full of alot of helpfull and interesting content. My question is this; how many batteries do you take out to the field and how do you know when it is time to retire a battery?
i almost exploded seeing trev hair.!!!! What kind of drugs did trev use in that era?
where can i learn how to use betafly?
Cal u came finally
hi Stu, Trev and Cal , after just finishing my 4 inch , which is flying amazing btw, I was looking for making another 5″ (or 6″) build. I have some gemfan 2306 2200kv motors lying around and wondering if I could combine those with HQ’s 5x5x3? Some advised me to use them on a 6″ with HQ’s 5.5x5x3, but I don’t know which way to go. Any suggestions on props and frame (I was thinking ‘Hyperflow CG’ frame with a 4in1, 5 or 6″). grtz
How do you all manage fpv and family,love the videos too.
If you constructed a perfect pair of Frankengoggles from individual FatShark, Aomway, Skyzone (etc.) components, what would it be made up of?
I have a question, with the Turnigy Evolution can I do channel mixing to add throttle to turns and what not?
Can I do it on the Transmitter or Betaflight?
Hey Stew, Trev and Calv,,,
Question: I have Emax 2205 2300kv on my quad, and My No.1 motor has movement between the bearing and the prop shaft, the other three motors are fine “no movement”? What causes this issue?, and How can I fix it?
what’s quad camp?
G’day Stew, Grumpy, and Cal, I just know he is there 🙂 OK, what are drop Bears? Is the an Aussie thing? Love the friendly banter. Keep it up. I look forward to the jokes. 🙂
Who wheres short shorts? Stew wears short shorts!
CTC (aka the NASA Scientist of UAV), Stu (aka too bloody excited for his own good) & Trev (aka the Blue Light Disco mystery dancer) – I have a question. Does diversity really make THAT much of a difference? I mean looking at the specs of some Cloverleaf ANTs out there like the Pagoda2 for eg…. How much of a difference does it make to YOUR flying?
Is it best to start off with a relatively cheap “micro-sized” to get some basic experience or an upscale quadcopter ?
I am getting into building micro quads these days, 2 1/2″ such as the Aeolus from Atmospheric Adventures. Even with a nice 20×20 stack it is a lot like trying to put 15 lbs of %#^# in a 10 lb sack. Considering the required components, what would you think would best make them all fit (and allow some camera angle tilt/change)?
disco trev.. lmao
Recently got into FPV with a friend and loving it! Really like your channel with all the great reviews and info for beginners.
What does your battery cycling routine look like? How many batteries do you have on average, how often do you buy more, and how long do they last?
I live in AUS and snakes don’t normally just slide up to you while you’re flying and bite at random. never had a problem with spiders either but what really pisses me off is flies and mosquitoes harassing me.
hey stu, how often do you get told off for flying drones and how accepting is the comunity of them?
Review the furibee x140
Hey Stew, what’s with the weird nipple rings T-shirt…?! 😉 Good to see CTC, finally! Cheers, guys, love it as always!
Hey, stu Trev and cal, I have a Question, do you clean your brushless motors and if so how, I am struggling a bit and this would help me, also great YouTube channel and keep up the good work.
Hey guys big fan of the videos! Have you ever been aprouched by someone out in public because of your fpv/drone clothing? If so what are some tips you would give to make fpv sound as epic as it is? Thanks! 🙂
Question: I am just wondering we have so. Much sorts of frames what would b you’re perfect frame, I mean u want it to have top/bottom mount, gopro/hyperlight. Tnx have funnnnnn
Is there a way to make your components Splash proof?
Stu, LOVE the blue schmack shorts your wearing this week. Very fashionable. My question to you all is if money wasn’t an object, what parts would you buy to scratch build a new quad?
Hey Stew, love the channel and positive energy. Question: do you think quads will ever become like PCs, will there ever be a “common interface” between a motor and an ESC, an ESC and a FC, a FC and a VTX and so on. Right now you need to have soldering skills as each component has a different kind of plug (even the same category of components do, e.g. VTXs, I have 4 different brands/models, 4 different kind of plugs on them), but imagine having to solder a RAM stick or a graphics card in order to upgrade or build your PC, very little people would do it meaning that no average Joe would ever get a PC.
Hi guys. Do you still use a ground station or do you find the receivers built into latest goggles good enough for racing?
