"I think this is a very SMART move on 3DR's part."
"OK, did you finish this? I'm in the middle of a build and unclear as to how i'm going to do the power distribution and having trouble finding pics... Any pointers appreciated."
"Do dump the HK arms and get 4 Legit DJI arms. You'll magically see some issues just disappear. The HK arms are way to soft/flexible. People complain about DJI arms too but swapping them is like moving from a 4 to an 8 on a scale of 1-10. …"
"Very nice... (Looks for line to stand in to buy one)

"I highly suspect they see the writing on the wall. This is their legal CYA for the disaster that will eventually come when someone does something stupid and this is their attempt to cut the odds that it will be a Phantom that wanders into the path…"
"Nice footage."
"Is this with a PixHawk? Cause it won't send the signal to the ESC's until you push the magic button and pre-arm it."
"@Euan,I think the hex is a fine camera platform. I've had some issues with mine though, that I can't put my finger on. At the end of the day, I just prefer a more acrobatic, nimble platform than at least my current Hex provides. An octo is on…"

"Fair enough, but it was oriented towards you after RTL, that's pretty clear in the log. I think probably a combination of things, but I think you unintentionally gave it some throttle in addition to what was happening, prop-wise or other.

Frame 3) You flipped into Stability mode (Yellow), and it went to the left, maybe it doesn't know…"

"Man this looks great, can't wait to try it this weekend."
