baorevo Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 After biting the bullit and buying in on the ZMR chassis ..................i cant wait to get it in the air !!! This is the chassis http://www.banggood.com/H250-ZMR250-250mm-Carbon-Fiber-Mini-Quadcopter-Multicopter-Frame-Kit-p-933185.html its a 250 class quad and is aimed at fpv flight and ive got all the gear for that heres a pic of it nearly finished (nearly because i wired an esc backwards and poof magic smoke !!!!) im waiting for a new esc at the moment..... And next to a 450 the heart of it is the new apm mini 3.1 , a flight controler fully loaded but really small to fit in the beast Here it is next to a kk2 it will be at least 2 weeks before i get the parts i need to finish so i will be eagerly watching out for the postie lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samshirley001 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 i REALLY REALLY wanna get me a 250 sized FPV quad!!was FPV'ing a lot with matt P, and was really enjoying it.i highly reccomend getting the MinimOSD for flying, it makes it 10x easier to fly FPV.

banners Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 250 quads are magic! Ideal for flying around like a loon, strong enough to withstand a few bumps and scrapes I keep telling myself no FPV but am struggling to convince... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baorevo Posted August 31, 2014 Author Share Posted August 31, 2014 I have the minimosd the quad is completely built now apart from missing an esc so im blocked leds front and back as its the same front as the back (very confusing) FPV gear has been fitted so all i need now is an esc lol silly eh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baorevo Posted September 12, 2014 Author Share Posted September 12, 2014 the rest of my orders came in so i finished the mini and its all ready and tested , i tried it out in a gale lol it was all over the place but it flies. its been blowing a gale for 3 days straight so no flying .... and as its going to be fpv low flying i stocked up on gemfan 5x3 lol , this lot should tide me over for a couple of days The build was a little frustrating as the flight controler is so small and the mini apm wiring is not at all like the full size apm 2.6 and as its just really come out theres not a lot of info but i found what i needed..

crew79 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Great Job. By the way what is your PID? I have that same mini APM board and I do not know why it's not flying. It is completely unstable. And before I try to fly I make full configuration using wizard. Can you help me and write your PID? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
