Title: TBS Discovery
Post by: Randall on March 03, 2013, 03:16:09 PM
Well im just about to order the Discovery :-) man this hobby drains your bank. Im going to order just the frames and then transfer everything from the naza. I have a couple of questions.

1) do i need anything else ? I have a working Naza so guess its just changing the frame and job done.

2) do i need to change any settings in the naza its self ? As obviously the motors are in slightly different orientations.

Do you have any setup tips or building tips ? Going to fit a board cam and a boscam

I have a stack of 3s 3000's would running two packs in parallel be ok or should i just buy some 5-6000 mah packs want to stay 3s really

You will need to change the Naza settings.. as FC will be in a different place and GPS/MAG location will be different as well.. gains will also need changed.

I would run some 4s 4000mah batts ..  pay attention to the cage size as not all batts will fit.. I run 4000ma 4s Zippy's which are cheap from Hobby King.

Well, its mainly power and it feels more locked-in and is more responsive. Maybe my build log also answers some of your questions, especially in the description I have added many tipps and tricks:
