Welcome to the Pocket Drone User Group!

The Pocket Drone is a foldable tricopter made by airdroids after an extremely successful Kickstarter campaign. Unfortunately it did not live up to it's hype, but with it's APM for a brain it is definitely possible to make it fly after performing a few modifications to the supplied airframe.
As DIYDrones is the home of the APM and the Arducopter firmware creators, it's also the place to be for people who are trying to get the most out of their Pocket Drone.

With a little help of the Pocket Drone Community User Guide, even people completely new to drone flying should be able to get their Pocket Drone up in the air!

If you have any questions or feedback on the Pocket Drone or the user guide, feel free to start or join a discussion below!

I have test dropped it a few…

No Micro USB port for firmware update

Finishing off the Community User guide before my first flight and found that I do not have a micro usb port to update to.  The only port I have is a 6 pin, looks very similar to a balancing port you would have on a charger.Any ideas?  I am very hesitant to try and jam a micro usb into this thing,  I should add that I have another drone that works with Arducopter, so I am very familiar with the firmware upgrade process etc.Thanks.20150402_151026.jpg

Tail motor question

Got mine last week.  Missing a couple things and the extra battery is no good, but at least I got something.I have been working my way through Deltablasts group manual, awesome BTW, and am just about ready for the first flight.My question is, after I do the zip tie tail servo upgrade, maybe even before (I never even checked), the tail rotor tilts slightly to the left (from the back) when the transmitter is just sitting there.  When I move it back and forth it will sometimes end up centered, but…
