Hi all, Swoped out the gemfans for some HQ durable 7 x 4.5 Tri Bi blades,Small overall improvement. Then some HQ durable 4.5 Bi Blades. Much smoother , less jellow no bobbles Sounds Meaner , motors just slightly worm , better flight times, No down sides.Just got to love that GROWL.

“The motor-car went Poop-poop-poop, As it raced along the road. Who was it steered it into a pond? Ingenious Mr. Toad!”

And there is your H7 Hauler, very nice! How is the combo of X8 and H7 working for you then?

Hi I posted flight no 2 on YT last night, Its been 40 years since i read wind in the willows,

Nice! Alrighty, that looks like just the thing that you would be wanting for your H7. The footage looks great, and the machine seems to be handling the weight with no issues, thank you very much! But frankly, with all that air being moved, if it didn't, that would be the surprise. Strong work, as ever, and nice flying. Also, greenery. Exciting! :-)

And about the same for me, I suspect, likely longer. I'm pretty sure I read it in 2nd year of Junior School or something. But I have been to Disneyland in the interim, so have partaken in Mister Toad's Wild Ride (which wasn't very wild, in truth).

It can fly upwards of 20 minutes on a 4 cell Li-Ion battery pack and in ideal conditions it's got a range of over 4 to 5 miles. In this guide I'll walk..

Build a DJI FPV Cinewhoop - QAV-CINE Freybott Edition

Mar 04, 2021

With the release of the DJI FPV Drone cinematic FPV has become a lot more accessible, but you certainly don't want to crash a $750 drone! The QAV-CINE Freybott is a compact, lightweight cinematic FPV drone that can take a hit and keep going. It's a lot safer to fly indoors and around people. With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..
