Hey Guys,

Nice weather had at least some out for a bit of flying.

Thanks Tarek, Andrew for your support. Preparing for more better weather soon!



Enjoy,
Peter D.

Peter now that you accomplished that is time to move on to direct brushless gimbal.

Sorry no pan axis on that one yet.
But rock solid.

Nuh. I built that one. Alot of cutting and sanding went on. The motors are cheap, the controller is pricy/\

Billy,

Very nice work Bill. I want to see it work.

There is no limit to price for getting quality.

If it works, is reliable (usually costs a lot) and is what does the job for you then it's all good. I save my pennies to get this stuff.:rolleyes:

It does work ( well on the bench anyway)
The problem is that people get it for FPV cause it mostly made for a go-Pro or the like.

The problem is forward motion. It don't do too well because of the wind.
The gimbal has to be balanced 150%. There is no torque with those motors but they will come back to the center.

Once is tuned in is amazing. You can only use them up to the Sony NEX or between 400- 800rg.

There is new motors in development for bigger cams but not yet.

So, if you going to do some videography is fine but for FPV forget it.

Cheers

Hi guys,
I know this doesn't belong here but the "contact us" under 'help' tab doesn't seem to work.
I'm an old (possibly renewing) member of the club from the good old St. Clet days! I'm back in the West Island and returning to the hobby with an electric heli and multi after a long sabbatical. Really happy to see multi's at your club. I was wondering when someone would be at the field so we could talk membership and stuff in general. I've read most of the info on the WIMAC site. Thanks and hoping to meet some of you soon.
Pierre
