    Flying in a thunderstorm

    Try that in AZ, Not! Monsoon would blow the strongest of drones into the next state

    First Time Above The CLOUDS!

    And we wonder why we have to register our drones

    Near Uncontrolled Airport

    I live in a small town in AZ. There is a guy who has been flying his para sail around my place and I'm thinking of meeting him with my q500. Here is the kicker he is not flying from an airport but he is flying in flight path, our town is only 5x5 miles, now quests who would get their behind...

    Losing radio signal

    How long has you had your Q? Was it the red letter warning or the red block like low battery. Mine did not affect drone flight however I do see a big difference between the old model and the new, old one was more responsive new one is sluggish. I used to fly 3D nitro helis and I'm used to very...

    Night flying.....

    But it a dry heat, I know they say tell that to a turkey :eek: I miss the snow and all but had to move, Dr's orders. Road too hard too long until some old lady in a cage decided to run me over, the a deer hit me broadside @ 75mph. The body is getting old but the spirit is strong :rolleyes:

    Losing radio signal

    since I got my replacement 4K I've noticed that I get signal drop each time I'm recording. I have only flown hear at my house where I have four acres of property and have not flown to the edge of it yet because I get a red letter signal across top saying loss signal, I always fly with at least...

    Night flying.....

    sounds like your in an area I've always wanted to White tail hunt, but because the money hungry gov here has their hand in my hip pocket I can't afford it.

    Unstable flight issues

    OK like they say the only stupid question is the one you don't ask. For those who have read any of my posts you might remember how Yuneec lost my q500 and after 2 months replaced it with a new 4K model minus a battery, case, strap, sun shield, card, charging cables etc... I ended up using a...

    Night flying.....

    Hi, Just be very careful, not sure if your in the US but FAA has really cracked down on flyers, their fining because the regs. state "no night time flying" under the drone registration. Personally I think it's nonsense, there are some great nighttime opportunities like fireworks etc... I know...

    Steady Grip Modification For CGO3+

    Hi Hayden, Thanks for the info and suggestions. I do have one more question. After tracing the three wire slide connectors they do not seam to go to anywhere inside the Steady Grip, are you saying they are actually the power to the gimbal? And if so is that where you ran your power to. Again...

    Camera wires broke off circuit board

    I posted about hopefully preventing this king of thing happening by using Spider Wire to hold the camera in place just in case the rubber dampners came loss on hard landing etc.. Poor design when you think of it unless they want to make money off our mistakes. IMO a simple grommet through the...

    Steady Grip Modification For CGO3+

    I have a question about your mod. Hard to see all you did because I haven't taken the Evelynn Wood speed vision course :eek:, (joking) I have the q500 with 4K, I also have 3 of the old 6AA steady grips. Knowing that the three pins actually go to nothing on the main board would they actually be...
