Same here so I think it is normal. My quad also can hover about half throttle. Might be changing the ESC timing to middle and check again. At this moment I am using low timing for the Plush ESC.

Hehe, the other day got someone boating around the lake and rescued a plane hor?

Very good information about quadcopter for beginner like me .......




There are many parts so just go to youtube and watch the rest if interested

Bingo

Qiw, any experience with this ESC? Good enough for quad?

A fren of mine is asking me to setup one for him but the PLUSH 18A is out of stock now.
If I would still be using back the frame I just bought what motor would you recommend other than the SK 2822 motor? That would be a quad for stable flying instead of acrobatics.

Thanks, mate!

My apartment has a very small balcony only, not good enough to take off from there lah Furthermore I am on 12th floor, too scare to fly at that kind of altitude ... hohohoho

That small padang for night flying is pretty safe from crime because it is in my apartment's compound ... kekkekeke the only worry is mosquito and dengue!

Your walkera heli looks pretty nice lah with LED also, but too bad I think my "camera man" cannot accept more flying machines to go into the house after the quad

Hohoho, I prefer mode 2.
Because most of the rc hobbyist in malaysia are mode 1, from there I have a reason to decline people from "borrowing" my things and test test .....

kekekekkekekekeke

Can, you come to penang loh

But my quad can only do simple flying, not so powerful one so a bit hard to whack loh .......

Definitely. The cf quad frame is about 150 ringgit including shipping.
I think all those expenses you have mentioned can afford two of this frame

Oppppsss. Just saw a mini glider with FPV built in. RTF package comes with a radio and built in LCD screen as well.

Hehehe, any idea how much would that cost?

This one woh, http://malaysia-rc.com/index.php?topic=27741.0
Can't find the link to check out the price .....

But according to the review the range is about 800m only. Hehehehe, if it is below RM1K for all then should be considerable loh .....

Shipping is about USD40++ .. add up and the total is about USD310. Almost 1K here ........
Hohoho, since I have a quad already do you think I should spend this 1K just for a FPV system which usually has a longer range or 800m is good enough already?

Dia memang dah lama dekat sini

Since kodox pun ada sini I think we need to modify the thread's title again loh ===> RC Helis & Planes & Multicopters V3

Not just that only, short skirts and cat-walk not good enough, they need to know how to fly also. Else how to call them flying models ....... huahahahahha

Qiw, your FPV video is interesting. I am so tempted to go FPV evey time I see your video. Hehehe, too bad lah the cost of starting FPV is not affordable to me

David, it depends, if we talking about the complete FPV system like this, http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/_...ncl_Tx_Rx_.html

it cost USD 300 excluding shipping.

Qiw, isn't it the 900MHz has a lot of interference? I prefer to FPV with a goggle, more realistic.
The one I have mentioned above is that good enough for the video quality? But it is only 100mW.

That's what is stopping me from FPV.
I have no time and
1.) lots of reading required -> you need time to read.
2.) need money to buy the system -> you need time to earn money.

Hahahahahaha, might as well just wait for the lower price and better system in the future ......
