Harry commented on Shannon Morrisey's blog post The Rise of Winglets"I've always been told they are great for cruise like a long distance jet does, but the advantage is small at model scales. Now, on a flying wing they seem necessary for stability instead of massaging efficiency. They do look nice."

Alexandre Heitor Schmidt replied to Shannon Morrisey's discussion Arducopter motors not arming: Solution + Win"Thanks! That helped a lot! But I still can't arm my heli, unless I use mission planner. Maybe if somebody here knows the logic of arming i.e. what PWM values in what channels makes it arm/disarm, I believe it would really be of use for us."
