Ok, so it is more likely to see a higher C rating in a a larger battery (4S, 6S, etc)?
Thats true Jerry. I can control what pressure I send down the line. All though I don't do that much anymore as I am assigned to a Truck company. I handle Rescue of occupants, Ladders, Ventilation, Utilities, lights, and It's my job to get the boys with the water (Engine Company) to the seat of the fire with forcible entry if need be. Fire Engines and Fire Trucks are two completely different things. Engines carry water, Trucks Carry Ladders and tools and we each have different jobs. However, years ago when I was assigned to an Engine operating the pump was one of my duties if I was driving that day. GPM, friction loss, distance, up stairs, down stairs, size hose, etc. all play a part on how much water I'm sending, each line does have a max flow though. How the heck did I get side tracked??
Thanks guys.
, so far had only one problem. We are flying mainly over grass but have some hard landings which caused my R220 to get stuck in "armed" mode, no props moving though. I removed the bottom panel and found the flight controller gets dislodged from the main board on hard landings. I ended up putting a piece of foam inside on top of the flight controller so that there is no air-gap (see pic) and so that it will not become disconnected anymore. Even though my flying is getting better (my son may disagree, haha) and the landings are softer, it's still good to check that board and add the modification if you need it. I told the ViFly support guys and they said they are already making a modification for that now. Anyhow, this forum is excellent and I look forward to posting info as we find out new things about flying and maintaining the quadcopters. Also, we broke a few balance leads too (propeller damaged), seems like this is a common lesson... I appreciate the posters who provided the videos (above). Also, we are flying LOS only right now and did not buy the goggles yet, I'm really looking forward to hearing your feedback on using them, price, satisfaction, etc. Today, we tried flying in Horizon mode and wow, that gives the quad a whole new dimension. My son (he's 21) is more advanced at this point than I am, I had to go back to angle mode as Im still learning the basics, flying in circles, etc. Anyhow, we are both eager to move on to the FPV flying with goggles after we master controlled flying.
