Another forum user Mike was very kind..... he donated an APM & Xbee to my build I really cannot say in words how this progressed my project.
Really still adding components. Im at a loss with the power system and need to read more on how to make the esc, batteries, and apm, and survos all get power.
Here is a pic please don't let anyone else see my photos :) im kind of paranoid if this makes any sense any this entire hobby is in a grey area of the FAA, I personally enjoy bending rules just hate proving it lol.
:) best*! Evie
No problem on the photos. Nice bird! Nice radio...looks like mine! You know...my wife gets free beers at bars all the time...I did not know the female species could get free APMS and Xbees too! I think I'm gonna pimp my wife out this very night........
Its amazing that your progressing this far and still profess that you know little to nothing, good job!
