Here's where I'm doing my thing:

I'm going to dump the plywood as I've just ordered some quad deck plates from Mikrokopter plus a few odds and sods.
Going to go with KDA20-22L motors, 18 or 25A Towerpro ESC's.
Am I missing anything else?

epp1045 props male to male servo wire plugs for reciever to connect to board.

The wink was for a Quadpowered Controller

Good thinking about the male to male. I'll check my spares box first.

Guys,
Here's the AccelPower video I promised. The controller isn't perfect but definitely making significant progress. I want to point out as well that this setup has not had the propellers balanced and the shafts / propeller collets are a little bent from a previous crash. So the setup doesn't need to be perfect for this to work.

This is a test of the add-on board. The gain setting isn't yet 1:1 from the base to the add-on. Thats part of the next step. But to answer your question, I am flying around 50% atv on my radio without the add-on board installed.

I understand,

It looks to level quite fast as well, any way you can do a video showing the remote in front of camera while doing it. def seems responsive,

Warranty? You have zero feedback, and asking about warranty? Should be other way around, no?

very good George, look fine to me, you've still got minor oscillations but nothing much really
On the video, are you controling heigth with stcks or is it the software doing the job?

Hi guys. I was hoping someone more electricaly inclined than myself could help me out with something. I need to power a small lcd screen for fpv. the screen has a 12v dc input. I was wondering if a 11.1v 3c lipo would work for this? I also read somewhere else that someone has used the trainer jack on thier TX to power other devices. could this be possible?
