"@Adrian Martinez That's why I made it in counter-clockwise."
This is the final prototype for our 3D-printed folding 250 quad, based on corrections to the last version, seen below. Full frame is under 70 grams, flies free of jello. The landing gear is folding and replaceable, designed to give the exact…
"@Stephen forgot to mention that the arms only fold 90 degrees, so you do not have to worry about the arms being level."
"@Todd: E-max 2204 or 1806
@Stephan currently it's friction locking, with self locking nuts. I may switch to using butterfly nuts to make tightening easier if necessary.

This is a very compact and robust quad designed and built by me and another Chinese student that will fit snugly in a large pocket. Hasn't flown yet since the motors are still shipping, but it feels very sturdy and should be rigid enough to stay…
"@Dave Smith Our secret is plastic binding cords:)"
So today me and some other students were sitting in the workshop with nothing to do- bad weather canceled our routine flight. Seeing all the Lego mindstorm pieces sitting around, we decided to do something fun:Try to ignore the horrible wiring …
"@Tom Mahood I'll try to do that tomorrow. Camera-man(also the guy responsible for the video blackouts at such close range since he's the antenna tracker as well) is still on vacation and still hasn't given me any of the shots from the surface."
"I think he wants the drone to dock and charge and upload data automatically too."
Water wasn't supposed to have touched the lenses- we had a nice little retract built in, but that's all useless when you forget to use it:) Take-off was fully manual to prevent FBWA from attempting to correct the roll and cause uneven drag on the…
"its all in the name:good luck when buying"
"Really ,2? I start getting overshoot after 1.1. Maybe my servo throws are crazy:) I fly too much 3D "
"Looks awesome already! Always wanted to make a sub hehe"
"Hi Tridge, I seem to be having telemetry problems too
Had an APM 2.6 running 3.03, no problems at all. Both of my Pixhawk boards(one genuine one clone acquired just to test this problem) have a very difficult time connecting with both 3DR radios and…"

"OK so I uploaded plane-3.01 and it connects fine...so it's definitely something with 3.03(or my downloaded copy). Any ideas? The 3.01 glide bug is a bit of a risk"
"Oh and by the way does rover support tank-tracked chassis now?"
