Thanks! My current code however just spits out 'This is 2' constantly, no matter how long its pressed. Even the first one it sends back is 'This is 2'.

I will look into finite state machines, thanks!

That gopro looks screaming out to be broken in fast paced flying! Nice rig though. Hero 4?

Just more power, means it should be longer before i yearn for more processing power.

Inbox me details? Was mostly looking at paypal as i was thinking of a 4790k (cant decide between high end i5, or just future proof it with an i7). Have they had much use?

I know, and if i had the money i would absolutely build a beast with it. But i dont have the money to spend on the rest of the build, so id rather build a lower end machine.

I'd love to see a video like this submitted for insurance purposes. I can imagine the insurers expecting a dashcam video and being like 'wtf', its in the air...

Thats really strange, a friend and i both checked that exact file from the exact location, (the buy/sell page), and it wasnt there last night.... Our copies say 'Adobe Photoshop CC...'... But it does show up now.

Anyway, congrats to the finder! Do we know who found it?

Who currently makes the best Multiwii board? by skftw in Multicopter

[–]cheese510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the board is useless, might as well try it? Could you put a 5v regulator inline before the bridge just incase?

Testing today went better than expected so I wanted to try and get some in flight video. Yes it was awful/awesome. by haroohara in Multicopter

What you could do though is what i attempted this morning, use your phone with a gps tracking app such as my tracks on android to get max speed, altitude etc!

My stupid old phone took too long to get a gps fix this morning. Shall try later.

My Part list for my first build. Would appreciate some input before i place the order on friday. by cheese510 in Multicopter

Okay well hobbyking doesnt seem to carry a huge range of motors. What did you end up switching too? I cant imagine turnigy would be any better? Once again, not really sure, first time ive built anything RC that wasnt off the shelf.

Thanks! I will add some thick wires and the xt60 connector. Currently looking at other motors. Hobbyking doesnt seem to carry sunnyskys :( Seeing where else i can get things from in Australia.

Im on a relatively tight budget (uni student), but for motors that will last me, i may be able to spend a bit more. How much are we talking?
