Became hooked on these contraptions end of last year. Built 3 different multirotors to date, not counting all the rebuilds. Two destoyed while experimenting with PID's to fine tune waypoint flying with unusual configurations. The 3rd one flew away and is MIA. I'm considering a tethered one next.

Thank you very much Graham and Johann for all the help this morning. I had a great time. I had my quad in the air again this afternoon and it was great. Steady as a rock !!!

Had a great morning in Northcliff, JHB, chatting and flying quads with a couple guys, Johann and Louis. Johann, that Hexa looks great! Test flew a large well-flown wing of mine with APM1 - not bad at all with the default PID's, much better than the old ArduPilot Legacy & Thermopiles (later with ArduIMU). Had 250+ flights with the old "APL" testing and trying to get it right...
