    flight times to 30% with different props

    when i test these i do it n the house to have the same test conditions, and i dont touch the control other than to straighten or correct a drift from hitting the wall, in order to get as close to the same test conditions and all props get a fair shake... i am planning on testing flight...

    flight times to 30% with different props

    well the dji prop is still king of the hill on hover time , the rcstq carbon after balancing came dangerously close to matching the dji but close is not enough ..they are not cheap and they have no resistance to coming in contact to any surface or object so they are just not an economical...

    flight times to 30% with different props

    added hq prop 5x4x6 in red im still planning on balancing the carbon props and retesting, but still there has been no real reason to not use the dji props, they are the best in terms of hover time, i used hover time as the test because in flight there are too many variables and everyone flies...

    how to solder antenna on module?

    try sanding it lightly with a small piece of maybe 1000 grit sandpaper using the ending of dowel rod or flattened toothpick.. sometimes they use different solders that wont mix lead free solder etc etc .. clean both surfaces to remove all traces of old solder, sand lightly then clean with qtip...

    flight times to 30% with different props

    I agree with you guys on your views..ive only had 2 mishaps which were unexplained..other than that no crashes at all..its been really fun for me and so much less stressful than flying my turbine powered scale helicopters..i just wish i could get max speed with the MC. Its a fun bit of kit...
