This is pretty cool. We need a group like this to go to Riverside Park (and then to jail). Might as well turn your volume down, but the video is pretty cool. ...Tiger http://hackaday.com/2014/10/06/quadrotor-pod-racing/#more-134094
That was cool and looked like a lot of fun. Those seem to all be mini quads like the Blackout and QAV 250.
Yep... The fast 250 quads with FPV are the rage right now. Just in our own little group, Rick, Matt, Chris, and I are all building them right now. Matt was first to finish and flew his Sunday. His is a QAV250 with Open Pilot board. I think I know a couple other guys that will move on this as soon as the rest of us get in the air. I think this is going to be a lot of fun. Now if we could just declare "FPV DAY" and take over Riverside Park! ...Tiger
I didn't know there was anyone local with mini quads, very cool. Which ones do you and Rick have? Have you seen this:
I think Rick is going the same way as Matt. Chris is building a frame I cut for mine and then changed my mind about the design. I'm scratch building as usual and doing something completely different. That's my thing I guess. I'm re-cutting the frame again today on the CNC from 1/8" FR4. ...Tiger
