Hi everyone. Here is my first rookie video taken from a turnigy keychain camera that was strapped on to my custom built 550mm quadrocopter.  



My setup:
Motors - AX380N 1200Kv
ESC - Turnigy Plush 18A
Battery - Turnigy 2200mAh, 20c discharge rate
FC - KK2 board flashed with v1.5 firmware
Arms - 12mmx12mmx0.8mm cross-section aluminum extrusion
Centre-plate - 5mm thick polycarbonate sheet
Landing gear - Hiller 500 Heli Skids with aluminum rod
Camera - Turnigy keychain cam (of course!!!)  

Any suggestions/remarks would be appreciated!  

PS - I am very grateful to Adiboy for sourcing the FC, the complete power system and the Camera at a great price & sincerely thankful to Ashta sir for helping me figure out some anomalies over phone.

This is so cool! Veloci, my compliments. My cam is ready and fitted and I hope I get the same results.

Thanks fr the appreciation, sir! Bet ur video would be way cooler than this one..... ;-)

Btw, how did u 'fit' the cam to the quad sir? I used double sided foam tape along with a piece of high density foam to achieve the required angle. Would luv to snag a few ideas frm u :-D

Hi everyone. Here is the second rookie video shot today. 



Any comments/suggestions will be helpful. 
Cheers!!!

Here is the view from the ground

Really nice control you have on your quad. Keep it up.

Thanks raja_masthana and satyagupta sir. And thanks for the help over phone abt prop balancing also :-) special thanks to dharmik bhai for helping me out with the esc heating issue. :-)

I have keycam #3 but gives bit low resolution video, yours is really clear

Dharmik bhai, google 808 keychain cam. U'll get a lot of solutions on chuck lohr's site. Thanks to adiboy, i got this amazing cam at a superb price :-D

hey, are these default PI settings and other settings? I will update mine to 1.5

Yes. Default settings on v1.5. :-D

Amazing. You fly great. I aint a good pilot. Dont even know what makes it go left and right. Just fly randomly.

Practise on sim. Helps get the orientation rite. Cheers!
