Anyone know what size/type of screws are used for the props on the IRIS? I lost one and am grounded until I can replace it.

"So with the Pelican 1650, would it fit WITH the gimbal still attached? My preference would be to keep it on (as long as everything remains well-protected). "

"This is so helpful! I would love to see someone provide similar detailed instructions for DroidPlanner 2. I cannot get it to work for the life of me and it's driving me bonkers!"

"Hey! Here's a bit more detail that may help: http://ardupilot.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=6722. I can't help much on details re: installing the DragonLink, but there are plenty of helpful videos on YouTube. I was fortunate to have a friend help…"

Thanks to the help of a friend much smarter than me, my IRIS now features custom LED lighting and the DragonLink FPV system. I can't begin to explain how impressed I am with everything about this quad from 3DRobotics. Well done! Link to more photos…

Ryan replied to Christian Elsen's discussion IRIS "Add-On" and "Fixes" wishlist in IRIS
"Excellent summary and I agree 100% with your suggestions. I still need to add FPV as soon as the parts arrive, but plug and play for noobs would be a great addition."

I just received the IRIS I ordered back on 19-Feb. and was hoping to get a week or two of practice in before taking it with me on vacation at the end of March. It took just over 3 weeks to arrive and I was beyond excited to open up the package.…

I'm interested in getting feedback on the ideal FPV configuration for my soon-to-arrive IRIS from 3DRobotics. I just received a complete DragonLink system but still need to select the video transmitter, receiver and antenna. There is good info…

Ryan replied to Terpinol's discussion 3D Robotics Iris update
"Quick update: I called the company today and they said it may ship this week or next week. Either way, as long as i get it by the end of March I should be okay. I know this Iris will be worth the wait, but hopefully someone at 3DRobotics will remove…"

Ryan replied to Terpinol's discussion 3D Robotics Iris update
"I ordered my Iris and gimbal back on Feb. 19. At the time, the 3DRobotics website said it would ship in 1-2 weeks. Perfect, I thought...I would have it in plenty of time for an upcoming trip to Cancun. Just to be sure, I tweeted to the company and…"
