"Thanks, Chris.
I performed some amp draw measurements. With the 9x6 MAS prop on the Park 480 with a 3-cell Li-Po and a 40A controller I'm pulling 15.2 amps at full throttle (static). The battery voltage dropped to 11.3V under load (12.5V at idle)…"

I've had it in my mind for some time now to build a UAV. I liked Chris' builds with the Predator airframes and noted his concerns about the larger of the two Predators not having enough power or control authority. Now that I've managed to get my…
"The whole intent of a UAV is to have the ability to fly outside of radio range. I know that the failsafes SHOULD kick in (set when you bind the TX/RX) when you leave radio range so I'm wondering how things work there...even if the aircraft is in GPS…"

"Chris,
I see you're using the 2.4GHz Futaba FASST system.
How does this work with the PicoPilot?
When you switch from 2.4 to PicoPilot and fly out of radio range...the failsafe doesn't kick in on the RX?
I'm in the the planning stages of my own…"
