"Thank you John for the photos."
"Hello John
Sorry to hijack this discussion.
I'm interested in the way you mount your GoPro to the Y6.
Can you please share how you are able to do this.
Is it a ready made kit?
Please provide more photos on how the GoPro case is being mounted to…"

Hello I recently update MP from 1.3.15 to this latest version and I notice that when I tried to access the CLI under "Terminal" tab, the screen is displaying garbage instead of readable words.The reason I'm in this tab is because I want to do log…
"Hello Doug
Great to hear that you are rebuilding the Y6B with 690KV motors for top and bottom arms.
For me I wanted more flight time and am thinking of replacing the 850KV motors on my Y6A with Turnigy Multistar 650KV motors and 12" props.
Can…"

"Hello Pektusin
I'm going to follow your upgrade to get better endurance out of my Y6A.
I have a few questions and I hope you don't mind answering them:
- Can the Turnigy Multistar 3525 650Kv motor mount onto the existing Y6 round motor base?
-…"

I want to start with a simple setup and going to use FPV monitor instead.
I have a 2013 Y6 with 3DR's OSD/FPV system and it came with 3s 900mAh battery…"

"Hello Haywood
You mentioned "I highly suggest you wire the video transmitter in to the copter's main battery so you have one less connection to make."
I am using 3s and 4s batteries and how do I go about connecting the 3DR video transmitter to my…"

"Hello Tearig
Thank you for your recommendation.
The export restriction was lifted for a few countries including Singapore a few weeks back and I sent my RTF Y6 back to 3DR for repair.
I'll provide an update once 3DR have finished their test and…"

"Hello Nigel
Ok 3DR has agreed for me to send them my Y6 without the electronics. So there is no issue with the APM export restrictions.

"Hello Tearig and Nigel
I was given 3 options by 3DR:
- We can offer you a refund- We can offer you store credit so you can place an order once this whole shipping thing is finished- We can send you parts (we will check if we are able to ship these…"

"Hi Nigel
I guess 3DR has figure out the issue is likely due to the PDB as they initially want me to send my Y6 back to them for further testing and replacement of the PDB to a newer version that have Deans connectors on them.
I have already send…"

"Hello Tearig
So after sorting out the 2x front bottom 11" props being upside down, I brought my Y6 out for a hover flight test.
My Y6 sluggishness, its motors noisy and being very hot have all disappeared.
But my Y6 did not have a happy ending to…"

I have re-installed the props correctly and going out to the field tomorrow to do another hover flight…"
