    Micro Blade mCPx tail boom repair

    I found a piece of fiberglass rod that came with a kite or something the other day. I decided to try it out as a tail boom replacement material. The rod is solid and thicker at 2.5mm compared to the original hollow at 2mm. The extra weight shouldn't matter. At this point I have no metric drill...

    Micro Ares Nanos FP75 Innards

    Thought if someone was interested, I'd post what's onboard the Ares Nanos FP75 heli. <fyi> The stabilization is achieved through the InvenSense MPU6050 6-axis gyro. The heli talks to the Tx, and vice versa, by a Beken BK2423 2.4Ghz GFSK Transciever. All this is controlled by a Cortex M0516ZDN...

    Other Alkaline battery advice

    I was about to fly my Ares Nanos FP75 for a bit and I decided for some reason to open the battery compartment on my Tx. Very glad I did! There was so much leakage from the cheapo alkalines that it was running out of the bottom of the compartment. I got lucky as it didn't do any damage to the...
