RMM TBS Discovery: Batteries

Very Excited to Finally get new Batteries, Quality Batteries, I was not not aware that there are so many aspects about a LiPo that one has to understand and Calculate, and just like with everything else when it comes to anything really but in particular what could potentially be a deadly flying machine don't cheap out on it. Buying Quality Batteries is probably just as important as having your flight controller calibrated.
Ok Maybe im going a little overboard with this but for example when i decided to go 4S i was just looking for a good deal not really knowing about what Discharge rate i need or anything like that, i just knew it had to be 4s between 2500-4000, so i saw the new Turnigy MultiRotor Lipos 4s 4000mah, and it weight the same as the 3000 Zippy i picked out , well i thought wow what a an awesome product, well i did not understand what impact a discharge rate can have on performance, and the fact that your Li-Po could BLOW UP!
SO I decided to go to my new favorite web store, GETFPV.COM, for anything multirotor these guy have all the best quality stuff, as you could tell from the BOM most of everything on my Quad came from them.
I have been reading nothing but great things about their batteries, and the weight to performance ration is outstanding, oh and did i mention the price is SUPERB too.
anyway lets see what came today.

First of confirm that the packs came balanced which they did

Never thought i would find batteries good looking lol
A
It amazes me how little differnce in dimension there is between the 3300 and 4200mah versions, but dont be fooled, the weight differnce is what really matters
Now that is a very pleasant surprise, they include plug covers, which they did say on the website, so i am actually lieing that i am surprised, but its a great thing that the company includes, that, non of my other batteries came with little covers

Comparison to a not very much cheaper Zippy battery that i have been flying with.
What the Batteries Came Like

Best Entry Level Radio Controller and FPV Gear! Now more Affordable then Ever!

You have seen many of our machines but we rarely talk about what radio gear and FPV gear we recommend to people who are just starting out. I think by now everyone already knows that if you want the best gear you would pick the FrSky Taranis and the FatShark Dominator Goggles. The biggest problem with that is the set up costs more then the quad package itself. Now that this hobby has grown there has been a lot of competition and innovation that has been driving the entry level gear prices down and quality up. Now you no longer have to spend over $600 on the ground station side to get started. It is no secret that there was always cheaper alternatives out there but the quality has never been up to RushMore Mods standards, until now. Now, We are happy to recommend a package that only cost around $150 for the Radio Transmitter and FPV Goggles. Lets start with the Radio Transmitter side first. Radio and Receiver on Amazon FlySky i6 Radio transmitter is an amazing radio...

Review: FatShark Dominator v2 (Part 1 of 3)

This review will be broken down into 3 parts: Part 1 = The goggles, Features, thoughts Part 2 = DVR Quality, How to Operate Part 3 = Accessories, Reception Quality Shoot OUT( 3 different Antennas Tested) Hello everyone, i have recently had a chance to enjoy the FPV experience with many different sets of goggles including the FatShark Dominator v2, FatShark Attitude SD, Skyzone Diversity goggles and even the Quanum monitor/goggles DIY set up. In this post i will focus more on the newly updated Dominators, some people call them version 2.2, because the company had made some major changes in the positive direction for these goggles. As stated above i have tried many different solutions for flying FPV. Let me just say get this out of the way, if you are flying via monitor and not goggles you are doing yourself an injustice because your experience is not at all what it should be. There is no other feeling like feeling that you are sitting inside of your little 250 frame zoomin...

How To: Action Camera SJ4000: Review and Lens Replacement

Hello so from the previous post you might have noticed that i fancy the SJ4000 camera. From all the research that i had done online it seems like there are people who decided to give this camera a try in search of a Cheaper GoPro Alternative and those people all seems to be extremely happy with their pick. Then there are the people who believe that there is a reason the GoPro is double the money for their least expensive model, and that the SJ4000 is most likely half of the camera, and have never seen the SJ4000 in person. To tell you the truth i was one of those people who thought that there is no way that this camera can be on par with the GoPro and was not really going to consider it for my Airial Video device. Well as i learned the hard way in the RC world its best to buy things that people have used and have positive view on. so my camera budget got sliced in half due to the fact that i needed a new set of motors for my build. Then the SJ4000 became a very appealing unit...
