    I am also going to need someone with some FPV skills. I'd like to set our plane up with downlink video. I think it will be awesome to be able to record videos from the air along our journey Frank

    Got it. Thanks! It is great to see another American battery maker still in the game. Isn't it a shame that a chinese company is selling batteries under the same name? Terrible. But Americans keep buying the stuff. I guess it's OK since we are saving a few pennies. :( That makes it right...

    Discussion Connectors; ESC to Battery. What Are You Using And Why?

    Speaking of out of the box thinking, I found these insulated bullet connectors. You can crimp them and they are rated up to 600V (although no amperage max is given). And they are super cheap...

    Discussion Connectors; ESC to Battery. What Are You Using And Why?

    PS I forgot to add that I am thinking about the EC2, EC3, and EC5 as a connector of choice. Although I am looking for an outside of the box solution still. Frank

    Discussion Connectors; ESC to Battery. What Are You Using And Why?

    Gentlemen, Can we discuss the different types of ESC to battery connectors and why you decided to go with those? I'll start. I started out in this hobby using Anderson Powerpoles. They are great connectors and I always made a good crimp so I never had to worry about losing power. After a...

    Question? Watt meter recommendation

    This is the one I have and I really like it. It's small enough to fly in my plane but yet large enough to read it that I don't need my glasses. http://www.western-robotics.com/inspector_hp.html Frank
