Hi Bruce, I was wondering for a frind, not being familiar with Spektrum Radios technology whether: a Radio link AT9 DSSS would bing with a DSM2 receiver type integrated on a Micro scisky 32 (http://www.banggood.com/Micro-Scisky-32bits-Brushed-Flight-Control-Board-Based-On-Naze-32-For-Quadcopters-p-1002341.html) ? Can't find much at this stage on Google search, hence this question, please Bruce. Tks for keeping in touch, and Safe Flying!

Hello, I just watch your video title "Rant: HobbyKing's miniquad stuff" that you did last year 2015. I myself got into the hobby, and everyone told me about going to Banggood, but I did come across HobbyKing when I searched "quad hobby" and of course they would show up. I decided to go with the so call Q450 which is just another so call DJI Flamewheel 450. I saw HobbyKing recommendation parts for this quadcopter and I feel they might be under stating the recommendation, from yours and other videos I watched, but can you verify my thinking on that? Their recommendation is 4 x 28mm 1000~1200kv (or similar size/kv) 4 x 15~25 Amp ESC 4 x 8x4~10x4.5 Prop (2CW & 2CCW) 1 x HobbyKing Multi-Rotor Control Board 1 x 1500~2200mAh 3s 11.1v Lipoly battery I would that that I would need 4 30 AMP ESC and at less 10x5 props and I got myself and APM 2.8 board which I am good with right now. and at less a 5000mAh Lipoly battery What do you think?

I bought (and later returned) the Parrot Bebop drone. Fun toy but the part that really stands out is the fisheye lens and the virtual pan/tilt/zoom as well as the real time video stabilization. It makes amazing video. I'm getting into FPV on gliders and would like to somehow combine a very wide angle lens with the ability to do PTZ (or at least pan and tilt) without moving parts. No servos. No gimbals. Very stable. Like the Bebop but on my FPV glider with FatShark or other goggles (ooh head tracker). Any idea how to do this with RF (Bebop uses WiFi and a mobile app - not going to work for long range FPV)? I think this is the answer to reducing the footprint of clunky cameras on gimbals that mess with airworthiness but I'm not sure there is a technical solution to the problem just yet.

When will we be getting LRS part 2?

Hi Bruce, I haven't seen Armattan reviews from you, could that be possible in future? Thanks and i really like your video's , so much information and fun to watch them.

hi first of all i just love to come over a and watch your videos i learn a lot and by a lot i mean everything xD i have a question can i use a 3 ch switcher without a radio control? am trying to build a wireless system but with the switcher i just cant switch cameras could you help me out?

Can anyone advise me on a budget build fpv drone that could be used for aerial photography and video? Parts list etc maybe? Thanks in advance!

Hello, Bruce, Recently I've seen some people lubricating quadcopter motors after few flights. Is it really necessary? How often should we do this? Could you please make the video to cover this aspect and share your own experience with us? Thanks, and keep on doing great job! -- Greg

Dear Bruce! I have a problem :( with my configuration setup. The problem is one of the motors won't spin during the calculating but the other motors spin nicely. I think the esc is broken but I'm not sure. Do you think if flashing the esc would help? I use Emax Blheli 12A and OpenPilot CC3D Flight Controller Bent Pin STM32 32-bit.

hi there is there anyone here that can help me im new at fpv i have a rc5808 reciever and a ts58200 transmitter i got it with a cheap pair of circular polarised antenna that are worth around 25 dollars when i hook the camera up and get my display on the screen as soon as i walk away from the screen with the transmitter the screen starts flickering on and off and cuts out and on and when i walk back up close to the screen again it stays on no flickering and goes fine could anyone possibly tell me what i should be looking at i have a feeling that it might be the antennas that are being used.

Hi Bruce. I am hoping you can offer some advice? I have a Taranis Plus with a telemetry fault. Even at close range I get "Telemetry low" warnings and then if i go further, about 80mtr I then get "telemetry lost" I never lose any control though even when I go out a few hundred meters. Before having the plus version I had the original Taranis and it was great. Regret selling it now! I bought it second hand and I have had it to long now to complain, when I first noticed the problem I thought it could be a faulty antenna so I did the 5dbi conversion but it didn't fix the issue. I have tried doing a software update and I have tried it with six different receivers but it is still the same. Was thinking about trying a new top circuit board as this looks like it has all of the rx electronics on it? What are your thoughts?

hi Bruce it good see you promote turnigy frsky as they getting more common over here but it top competitor being spektrum dx radio gear have thought of doing a spektrum review ?

Hi bruce, you might be interested to see that he his selling the OSRC project http://www.ebay.com/itm/281848881516?ssPageName=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

"Give Bruce back his wings!"  That's the heart of the problem here. Bruce indicated in his video that all the money in the world couldn't help him unless he could legally fly again. Any ideas out there on how we can get Bruce back his wings? Anyone out there good at organizing a protest campaign? T-shirts, petitions, letter campaigns etc... I realize that a lot of fans are located all over the world which makes it difficult to organize. 

Does anyone know what the procedure is for setting an ESC PWM frequency to and timing for any given motor. I don't actually want to do the hit n miss approach or opinion as this ESC wasn't cheap. Here we go Bruce, this would make a great video as this is your area of expertise

Can you do a review of flite test's new versa copter?
