New Years FPV Resolutions

Western · January 02, 2016, 09:20:27 PM

Welcome back Gordon. I wondered what happen to you. You found any spots in London to fly yet?
My new years resolution? Fly more and learn to get my quads into acro mode and to stop using horizon and flying them LOS. Better get a load more props in stock.
Cheers and happy new year, Mark

Hi bud, I'm living at island gardens across the river from Greenwich, thers a big Park there.
To be honest, I haven't been out flying much, but I have my quad with me now, so I will be getting out soon.
Have a great new year.

Thanks Simon
Thing is when you start all over agen with only 13 posts, people think your talking ball, I know most of the time I am. Lol
Squirrel is old hat now I think, didn't some skin a cat and turned it into a quad.
I found a brilliant biuld on RCGroup for a printed Dji inspire clone, been re designing some of the parts ready for my return to London, where my printers are. Ordered the carbon tubing for it, I have posted it up in the 3d printer section, looking forward to that, will post up the progress as I go. Got a sweet little mini fy 3 axis gimbal to fit to it. G

To make 2016 as good as 2015 was!

I didn't get that many hours in total but every single flight was quality. Didn't have any failures or crashes either. Maybe I'm not trying hard enough lol.

@BeesleyBoy - Used to live on the Isle of Dogs. Mudchute park was where I had my first FPV flight! Definitely fine for testing quads. I've had my Z2 down there too ha. You probably recognize the location here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mw3pS4afh4w

I'm only 20 mins away, I fly at Hackney Marsh for testing so gimme a shout if you fancy meeting up sometime. I fly mostly planes but I'm building a small quad for a laugh.

My New Year FPV resolution, get some kit and lose my fpv cherry.

Hey Marky Cambs - it's a strange thing..
I have flown LOS for donkeys years, and when I first tried FPV I found it very hard for about 3 flights, then I twigged - hang on, this is really easy & really really fun.
;D
good luck with it !
