Hey all I got my 3DR package today, it was like opening a present in christmas

APM2

3DR Quad Frame Kit with motors and ESC's

MinimOSD

CCD Camera

3DR 900mhz radio

LV-EZ0 Sonar and mount

2 hoodies (It is winter here in South Africa so it is NICE)

I waited 6 weeks before it was at my door but it is all worth it, thank you 3DR.

    Hey,

     

    Talking to me is dangerous, contact Hein at vlap.co.za he is a registered importer of diydrones and he knows his stuff he will tell you precisely what you want to know.

    You are super stoked...  but... did you remember 4 male Deans connectors for the ESC-PDB connection?  

    I'm a week and a half into my complete build and realized the error of my way...  Had to solder the ESCs directly to the PDB to get it in the air... which meant a spare PDB and a soldering project again last weekend to make it right.

    It's a kick in the pants!  Congrats!
