About Me:
30 years old. Small town agricultural community. Work at a grain elevator. Grew up in RC cars and planes. I got into multirotors in beginning in 2013. Used apm 2.5 for first build. Been hooked ever since. I have currently built 6 different multirotors, currently have 4 in my stable. Getting into fpv recently just for fun, it its also helping in lining up the perfect shots for photographs. Not a noob, not a pro, somewhere in between and never ceasing to hunger for more :-)
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

"I am assuming it will be stabilized digitally on board so it's reduced to 1080. Just a guess though."
"This definitely should go on the Wiki. I can see the correlation between steering angles of the car and the angles of a multirotor. Great explanation."
"I want to see that exercise scenario!"
"Was the wheel calibrated properly in windows?"
"Does it do the same thing with different joysticks?"
"That makes sense. I automatically assumed flight controller."
"It's at $305 currently. Is it worth that much without a flight controller?"
"I didn't like the nanotechs from hobbyking but the zippys performed well. They were bought in the same order and i still use the zippys. The nanotechs were puffed and disposed of within the first year. Still have one gen ace left. This is all in my…"
"Of course as always your mileage may vary. It's possible that my application isn't as hard on batteries than the next."
"@OG That is why I was curious. I don't notice any difference in flight time or pack life between my zippys and gen aces of the same capacity. The genaces are over twice the price and I can't justify it over the possible limited performance gain.…"
"We're in agreement there TJC/Badman. In my limited experience though the zippys I have perform great and even though I'm strictly recreational now I've got plenty of money floating in the air when I fly. But I don't have a business reputation to…"
"They've been performing well for me. Sorry if too off topic."
"Could you explain what you mean about the zippy batteries? I realize they are not professional grade but is there a reason I should be avoiding them? Just for recreational."
"Regardless of how many there are I know that this community has benefited greatly from non American members and contributors. Most of the people who make the most sense here are not from America. I only used that bit of info to explain why there's…"
"I cannot confirm my assumption about the community so if I am mistaken I apologize."
"I see you are still upset about this for some reason mP1. Get over it. I'm willing to bet a large portion of this community are American. I could be wrong but if I'm not can you not understand why American policy comes up often? Btw are you posting…"
