About Me:
Work as a webmaster and website development (programming, monetizing, etc.) On my copter hobby: I got an Y6 from 3drobotics, bought as a kit, with couple of batteries, Hyperion charger and FlySky cheapo transmitter.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
Mainly as Hobby, I am an electronics hobbyist, playing since early years with PICS, developing custom hardware and software for data wireless transmission, reception, alarms, heat seeking, whatever weird project I could use for my free time :)

"Ian,
Understood ... So, the way I am placing the antennas, all pointing down, is OK :) It was just common sense, but then , most Y6 photographs depict antennas going up ...
Regards,
Enrique"

Hi there ...All pictures I've seen of different hexa,cuad,tri, y6 ... etc copters got the different antennas pointing up. But then we are usually BELOW the copter, when it flies.I got three antennas out of my 3DRobotics Y6: Video, data and flight…
"Hi David, yes, thanks, I actually found on amazon the correct adapters, they visually match on what I need for both antennas. USD 7.5 or something like that, and voilá problem solved :)"
"Thanks Rob !"
"I would say that I am a consumer which may be that stupid ... and supposedly 3Drobotics is an american company which could actually be kind enough to explain things to stupid people like me in support ? or actually place a warning on their product…"
"David,
Thank you for your kind offer. I will try to graba 2014 Y6 kit (whenever they get it back into stock) .. I am not getting a Pixhawk, so I will need to use the old arducopter 2.6 on the new frame. I will get the gps mast also, which I saw…"

"Ooops ? I did not see that RP-SMA !!! Lucky me, as I unscrewed the Cloverleaf antennas at that time, placed back fatshark ones, and it worked just fine for several days (before y crashed it !) On the FAQ of the FatShark manual, now that I search for…"
"Haywood:
Hi! ... thanks for your concern and ideas.
First of all, I couldn't find the Y6 spare legs as a product to buy, (whatever year model´s). AFAIK, you can only buy those as part of the DIY KIT, and ... well ... stock the rest of the parts.On…"

"I couldn't believe at first, their answer. It was almost like a scam. They took away my 34 USD for the pair of CloverLeaf Antennas, which are a completely useless piece of plastic and wire. When I realized the antennas where crap, frankly, I assumed…"
"Interesting idea, mP1 !! I got one of those somewhere :) Also, here I leave a nicer video I made while learning to fly my Y6 :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CECGqgyzdsw"
"Yep, Matt, so they are loosing customers. I am about to start looking for alternative "cheapo" chinese frame with support for coaxial config, in order to rebuild my Y6 with it. I got pissed off also at the expedited way in which they answered me…"
"Hi!
I ** THINK ** I know what is happening: your compass - magnetometer is upside down (at least on your config).
I had the exact same problem with my 3D Robotics hexa, using an APM 2.6 with external GPS / Compass: The gps / compass circuit has the…"

Hello,I am still learning to fly my Y6 from 3drobotics store. Included in the kit I found two velcro straps, which I used to grab hold of the battery.Today, in mid-flight, I see something fly down from my Y6, (followed by the Y6 itself).Thankfully I…
Hi Folks!Long story short, I purchased the parts, assembled my Y6, it worked flawlessly until I got it tangled into the top of a tree.A motor and two arms later (and some nuts and bolts - the fiberglass was stronger than the metal scews 3.5 and 3 mm…
