Quadrocopter's third flight with the GoPro
I tried flying with the GoPro mounted this time. I already had broken part of my landing gear last flight but managed to hold it in place with some duct tape ;) Everything went ok until I broke the landing gear again and had to remove the camera mount not to break it. I did a couple of flights without the camera and with the broken landing gear until I snapped 3 props and had to stop. I'll probably end up ordering a custom made plastic (delrin) landing gear from ponoko instead of ordering a replacement CF one, they break too easily.

Where did you get your landing gear?

rc-carbon.com, I've heard they make a new model that is more solid but I don't feel like buying CF parts that I'll probably break again before I have more experience landing the thing.

@Cyborg I'll probably disappoint you my my answer but I'm using default PID settings for the moment :P
