Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

Technician/electronics hobbyist and am interested in the build and technical challenges mostly. However, aerial photography is my current area of interest and am building some new UAV's specifically for this purpose. I have about 4 planes, 2 cars and um... probably have already built 15 multicopters? Working on a big girl that can do it all!

"Yep, i did the same and although it almost melted the neg pin on the PWR-M&R input I can see any other damage at all? I have tried to power with a UBEC and it seems to power up, but doesn't work? I have also since bought another 3DR power cable and…"
