Don H. commented on Gary Mortimer's blog post U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx Announces Unmanned Aircraft Registration Requirement

Search FAR 103.

Don H. commented on Ascent AeroSystems's blog post Help requested! Comments and input needed for new coaxial UAS
"How about keeping the price point reasonable for the average user. Not the 500+ dollar range like so many others are asking for. There is a lot of competition out there now. I'll bet we Will start to see some companies die off. To many choices for…"

"Several quad companies at CES. Some which haven't hit the market yet. Most appeared to be overpriced to me. But, I guess I'm just to cheap."

Don H. commented on nicco's blog post Who's going to the LA Drone Expo?
"They want me to pay 30.00 dollars to try and sell me something? To rich for a first time expo. Maybe next year.
Also,

Don H. replied to Randy's discussion ArduCopter-3.2 beta testing
"Thanks Michael,

I will give that a try when the new frame arrives in a few weeks. I had a catastrophic crash the other day. I'm pretty sure it was my fault.

Do you know if I need a power module installed in order to do a Compass Mot?

Thanks…"

"Hello to the DEVS and Testers,

I have a question for you. I have flown my quad on SW Revs 3. up to 3.1.5.
All have flown well for me. However, there is a bug that is driving me crazy that I can't figure out.
The quad flys perfect in all modes. Then…"

Don H. replied to Don H.'s discussion How do I increase horizontal speed?
"Hi Ewen,

Thank you for the reply. I found my answer on RcG. I needed to change the "Max Angle" value from 2300 to around 3500. Now it does fine flying into the wind. Now I need to try to set up auto tune with the gimbal on to see if I can correct…"
