I am not going to get out to do a bit more practicing for another fortnight, too busy, but maybe have a little practice in the back garden.

The resistance for TC is 0.15 which is bang on the money for most TC MODS.

Motor's and ESC should be here tomorrow, fingers crossed. How's it going with your quadcopter build?

The wind seems to be bad all over at the moment. I was hoping to get out on Sunday but 60mph gusts put paid to that idea.

Here's how to make your own one shots. Find a recipe you like and add up the flavouring percentages. I'll use my custard recipe as an example: 6% Vanilla Custard v1 (CAP) 4.5% French Vanilla (CAP) 4.5% New York Cheesecake (CAP) 1% Ethyl Maltol (CAP) So, the flavourings add up to 16. Then, decide how much concentrate you want to make. Lets say 30ml. Divide the 30 by 16........... and you get your magic number ......in this case 1.875 Then multiply all the percentages of the recipe by the magic number (round up or down as necessary) 6% x 1.875 = 11.25ml 4.5% x 1.875 = 8.4375 (8.45)ml 4.5% x 1.875 = 8.4375 (8.45)ml 1% x 1.875 = 1.875 (1.85)ml So that's 30ml of concentrate you use at 16% (the original flavouring percentage total) Simples If my counting head is on that will make 187.5ml of Kreeds Kustard .

I'm with a union I am going to contact them tomorrow was hoping my work would be more understanding but dose seem like there going to fire me as they obviously are treating it like I was smoking for @skwoody when u say play on anxiety stress what do you mean? Thought I'd go in today n I would get let offbut my sespention was extended n I hav dissaplinary Monday to respond to thealigation of smoking n breaching the smoking policy. As far as I can see nothing is in the smoking policy referring to ecigs or vaping, but they did find something about it not being allowed but not the actually policy looked like an internal memo n was directed at customers not allowed to vape in store. I think they need to understand that there is no combustion taking place therefore they can not say it is smoking. It is not breaching their smoking policy because you are not smoking. I think if you have a decent union rep this should be sorted out in about 5 minutes.

Well i’ve been waiting for about two weeks now for Gearbest to deliver. One item i think is in the UK waiting to be delivered and the other hasn’t even left, little concerned about that one because it cost a tidy sum Gearbest didn’t even have the decency to inform me. So with the long wait i decided to read up on building your own quadcopter. Frame built, now waiting for the interesting bit’s to arrive. Can't wait to see the finished item.

Greigster I had it out today. No crashes but I will have to practice a bit to get it smooth and more controlled. In my picture there is a white plastic thing shaped like an S or Z, what is it for? I've read some excellent write up's on these Quads. I did look at quite a lot of them but the one in my picture became available so I bought it.

I have 5 little lipo batteries that fit in those quads. If anybody wants them give me a shout. I have since bought something a little bit better just hoping that the weather improves so I can get out with it. You will love it macmagoo. Just make sure you do the dance of the Bumble Bee to set your compass (with no metal in the vicinity) and wait for all the lights to confirm GPS lock Greigster I had it out today. No crashes but I will have to practice a bit to get it smooth and more controlled. In my picture there is a white plastic thing shaped like an S or Z, what is it for?

Well done. I had my first flight with the Phantom today, no crashes, but not as smooth as I would like it to be for filming or taking photo's.
