    107 Private Pilots Certification August 29th

    Many Thanks sir. I got turned and twisted in so many directions the last time I visited the FAA site that I finally gave up. This is just what I was searching for. Got to get busy studying now cause business keeps growing. Lynn SR.

    Battery Flight Time Scary

    That one is an Arris 680 with 320kv motors swinging 13 inch props. Enough power to lift a full size SLR if you want. I run a naza lite controller upgraded to version v2 for free since it is so easy to set up. The 32 volt craft is a quantum 680 uc built for low weight and flight times. I will...

    Battery Flight Time Scary

    I have a phantom 3 pro (for long range) and a yuneec Q 500. The most fun is flying the ones that I build. This one runs a 6s 10,000 mah. battery along with a 3s for the camera and strobe lights. Flight time is 25 minuets. At 77 years young I haven't found any ways to have more fun with my pants...

    Quad down

    Mine did the same thing and it took me awhile to figure out that I had a motor that would lock up as it heated up. Use the gui from yuneec to trouble shoot the motors when you get it back together. It's a big pain in the *** to change out the motors so you have now been forewarned..

    Quad down

    WHEN THEY LOSE A MOTER THEY GO BELLY UP AND COME DOWN FAST. Of course if you soup up the antenna to increase the video range, it will no longer be covered under warranty.

    Internal Comparison of DJI Phantom 3 vs Yuneec Q500

    The fellow is entitled to his opinion, period. I personally own both and don't really care what you fly. Just have to add that my yuneec q500 has lost a motor and speed controller that I replaced and working with all the tiny screws and stuffing the esc back into the craft was a pain in the ***...

    I think you are all drinking Yunnec's kool-aid....

    Willie has expressed his honest opinion and I have to say has made some valid points. Yes the Yuneec flies slow with the GPS on but it actually helps with the photography which is a good thing. My Q500 has been a problem after only a month of use. The first time it went belly up and fell from...
