About Me:
41 and married with two boys. Almost 20 yrs of RC aircraft experience, small park flyers to 40% 3D gas aerobats. 25 yrs of experience employed as a industrial / commercial electrician, would love to change careers though, electrical work is physically demanding and not easy on the body!
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
As a hobby I have been building and flying multirotors and fixed wing aircraft for aerial photography for several years. All have been my own design. Started with line of sight and moved to FPV and recently started to fly pre programed missions.

"Do you have foam over the baro? Something had to change between receiver changes. Have you tried the jeti again to see if the instability still happens?"
"I'm still not 100% convinced that these motors are fakes. There is a chance that SunnySky actually make these, but these "fakes" are actually motors that don't meet the QA standard. Basically, these are rejects and SunnySky uses different bearings…"
"Yes, the 3508's do seem to be genuine from BangUgood. I had a order with them last summer for eight x2216-9 1100kv and four x3508 700kv motors. The 2216 were all fake! Some had the stators glued 2/3's in, three didn't work properly, they either…"
"Buddy RC has extremely fast shipping as well. Guaranteed to be genuine. Ive been into electric flight for a long time, Sunnysky motors are the best value out there. Excellent motors!"
