The Beast: QAV-R 5" 220mm FPV Quad

So we have been doing a lot of writting and explaining, and some people have asked for a simpler post for those who have a slighhtly better understanding of the technology.
So in this post we are just going to show off some pictures and provide you a parts list and prices if you chose to build the same exact quad as we are offering as the $500 package deal for the built and tuned quad, 2 Grapheen Batteries, 4 sets of DalProp Crystal 5x4x3

QAV-R is the next generation of the QAV-210 which now offers a removable arms in an X shape, which should provide better handling, as well as the arms are now thicker but more narrow allowing for better thrust values and not loosing the durability.

That is all the hardware you will need to complete your very own RushMoreMods QAV-R.
Total price comes out to $533 which does not include shipping from the places you are purchasing it. While while our fully built and tuned machine is $500. Not even going to touch on the fact that we spend as much time with you as you need to get your comfortable flying and understanding the technology.


Now as far as the Software:

MotoLabs Cyclone is running on BetaFlight 2.9.1 with 8khz Gyro update, and 4khz PID loop time. Its important to know that you can not run anything higher then 2khz looptime unless you have Multishot protocol enabled in BetaFlight and your ESC are able to run it. The new and awesome BlHeli_S ESC can support MultiShot out of the box.    

We are not going to share the PID as almost every quad we build has slightly different PID and rates, especially after we went out with the owners and tuned it to their skill set.

We do have 3 different Profiles set up, where the first Profile is really dialed in for 3S batteries, second is set for 4S, and the 3rd Profile is for when you get a lot better at flying, where the rates are a lot higher, so you get a lot more snappy feel to the quad but you need to be very precise with stick movement and that just takes practice and practice.

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...

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...
