Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
I currently pilot several Arducopters, 1 is the factory kit and frame the others are home built using misc. parts and motors with APM1 controllers. All fly very good and stable. New crafts include a DJI S800 using an APM2, and a Hexa from 3DRobotics, with everything!!

"I used common Gel pads for tennis shoes and cut them for anti-vibration pads, I also used rubber O rings instead of washers when attaching the engines and other components, it worked great! Nice job and let me know how things turn out, Steve,…"
I have a RTF Hexa from 3DRobotics and I am having some problems with the display of my OSD, (see picture), there are artifacts that look like characters on the screen. Has anyone had this problem or know how to correct it?
"Did you ever get an answer, I too have a rtf with the same setup and my video does not display?"
I'm sure this has been done already but I couldn't find instructions to have my live FPV, (from 3DR) to display on my mission planner screen, thanks in advanced for any help?
