"Well can you send it back?  If not its a mute point if you over paid or not.  I have the same radio and love it.  I recently got a 2.4 ghz FrSky module to run it.  I think the only thing I am concerned about is set up…"

"Ah, thanks Kyle. Thats what I was looking for. Yeah... that sounds like something I would rather not interfere with. I was hoping it was reserved for something that no one ever uses any longer and that would not have safety implications."

"So what are 980 MHz, 1010 MHz and 1040 MHz used for. All I can find while googling the net is that people generally agree that they are not legal for our uses and are also not legal with a ham license. In general if I want to find out if its…"

James Pearson replied to Antonio Santos's discussion Opensource Arduino + Max7456 OSD
"So would it be possible to use drive the osd with the same ardupilot arduino or do you need the ardupilot and an additional arduino nano? Granted it looks pretty small even with both arduino nano. Nice work and thanks for sharing with the community."

Just purchased a used Futaba 8 channel. How to do a factory reset.

So i just purchased a Futaba FP-T8UAF. How can I reset this thing back to factory settings? Or at erase the saved settings per model. I am getting the hang of changing settings from the manual but it would be nice if I could start fresh with factory settings. Is there an internal battery that I could disconnect? I paid $180 for it and I am starting to feel like I may have over paid. Its in very good clean condition and has no modifications. I don't think its ever been opened up. It came with…See More

Profile Information

About Me:
I am a Software Engineer from Texas. I have held an internship at NASA's Kennedy Space Center. I actually worked very close to UAVs, I think they actually used the term UAS more often. It was an amazing experience.
Tell us a bit about your UAV interest
As a child i build many many stick and tissue rubber band planes. Eventually I was able to get an RC airplane but crashed it when flying it in strong wind. I was too young. Fast forward and in engineering school i developed an interest in AI and autonomous machines. I recently graduated and now finally have the money to delve back into RC airplanes. Combine all this and its easy to see why I have an interest here.
