haha :D

yea i thought it was better to have a view in Yaw direction :D

Regarding the electronics though...
The antenna should be upwards ?
I didnt cluster the Radio Rx and the FPV Tx together , that's fine right ?

Also die the unbalanced weight due to the FPV LiPO i used the trims to balance the quad .. fine ?

Yes, For your setup upwards is fine,

but the perfect direction is downwards and below all electronics.

yes, always keep some gap between all transmitters/receivers.

Slight variations doesn't matter, but don't try with too much.

ok cool ...

I put the retracts back , so i can experiment with putting the antenna down , is it worth it ?
Title: Re: QuadCopter Upgraded to FPV !
Post by: akhilzid on February 14, 2015, 06:02:52 PM
that lead to more weight and the antenna not safe with this frame and retracts.

i think its fine now with current setup.

damn it , idk, one servo was showing some delay in pulling up the leg , i opened it to see inside and i REPENT it now , all gears went here and there ... Now its just lying here, and the others are useless too :(

SO...

I left the retracts and made suspension based Legs :D

Pretty cool :)

ALSO, made my camera more 'flexible' :D

See the pics .

Also, will open separate thread for the new developments, so that if others want to see specifically that, they may land up in the right place rather than going through an entire thread of a different context.
