Augustin sir, you are using CC3D ? Is that a Revolution platform or just CC3D ?
I am looking forward to buy a Openpilot board - it seems too cheap in Banggood and ebay but I am confused whether it is CC3D or the Revo board ? I checked through Openpilot wiki - but didn't get a clue on how to distinguish b/w Old CC3D and latest Revo platform ???

Also I wanted to know the exact features of CC3D (Not Revo) - Openpilot website is misleading. I can't gfigure out whether this board support GPS, telemetry , RTH or Waypoints.

It seems there is no accurate documentation for these boards (May be It is my problem !! ) - Somebody please share some experience .

I can do a segment on it, this is Revo, supports GPS and flight modes, tuning is great, you can customize the values based on your flying style, vehicle config and conditions in which you fly, what i like the most is the responsiveness. it is second to none, from hover to forward flight and a quick stop is exceptionally fast and superb. did some FPV as the sun was going down, it was great. only thing i realised was getting down from above the tree line can be a big pain especially when you went up through a hole in the canopy of trees. I did hit a small branch while descending ( i had already flown 23 min by then) with no consequence.

Satya (quadkopters) is the place you should get your board from, not from some BangBad :giggle:

Neat Gusty.  :thumbsup:. Looks more like a reptile or a TBS clone than a Dead cat to me.  ;)

Why is it that it appears as if ZuZu is taking a bite at you. The Brat is getting more naughtier by the day I believe.

Mine CC3D is on a Mini H carbon 250 with baby beast and it flies great. I am just graduating from Attitude to rateitude style of flying. Putting together one more H 250 frame from HK with a Naze32 Acro with RCX motors from Satya. Planing to go for a cleanflight config.

PS : Very unlike me accidentally got five prop nicks on my face with the baby beast due to accidental startup during throttle ranging. Not much damage already healed and has just added more color to the face.  :giggle:

Be careful sandy ! could have been your eyes ! Do you remember my cut at Shillong Peak ? ! how i applied CA to the wound and continued flying :banghead:  Well ! i always knew you as careful person. I am working on Naze32 too, got the GPS module too, on another Flame 550

PS
That wound is called battle honours ! :giggle: you should get a Purple Heart (AKA Wound Medal) for it :)

Re:

Yes Gusty it could have been very easily the eyes. Had no reaction time. By the time I  realised I had the cuts and few strikes on the thighs too. The track fabric was really resilient so only bruised the skin without cut on thighs. Param had exactly your words almost verbatim after it happened.

@sundaram sir,
Hope you used actual medication instead of Gusty sir's suggestion of CA...

sundaram

Yes Iyer Sir, Unlike Gusty I was at home when it happened and so I could clean the cuts with savlon and closed the cuts by applying blenderm and bandage. I was lucky it healed within four days without requirement of stuchers too.

I read that CA was widely used in vietnam , they even made it clinical standard . There are different brands of mdeical CA's to

@Rajjaiswal - Yes it was used in 'Nam and a more refined version is in use today.
