So I posted the below on the PhantomPilots forum and got very little help from those guys - I'm hoping with the leap in expertise on this site (@cruzroy @Donnie Frank @Dobmatt and of course @The Editor), someone might be able to share some advice/wisdom? My P4P is about 2” from the trash and in...

TBH, I didn’t even think Moldova was around anymore. Part of Romania, part of Russia, part of the USSR, part of the Ottoman Empire, then the Russian Empire - pretty sure they don’t know if they exist either! Good electrical goods though, so I hear.

Dammit Ed - you didn’t get the store name first! I bet there were great bargains to be had and possibly a giveaway of €57,298,614! ?

Aren't we all.... Hey Ed, you interested in selling that 12 ft hex of yours? How many hours on those lawnmowers?

Ditto to what Jeff said.

My personal favourite question is, when selling a car, "Has the cambelt been done", when it states in the ad that the car doesn't have a cambelt. I have a car listed at present that has a reserve. People keep asking what the reserve is. I send them a link to wiki on 'How an auction works'...

You can also purchase carbon tubing if you want to repair it. Bit of a time consuming exercise from what I’ve heard, hence I took the lazy way and repaired the arm on one of mine with two different sizes of aluminium tube and tek screwed them together, clamping them on to what was left of the...

Donnie, I'm converting one of my I1s to a miniature Agri sprayer (just because) - what sort of weight do you think I could get away with without compromising handling and flight times too much? 1kg? 2? Fluid reservoir on the top or bottom of the bird? Thanks in advance ML

Yeah got that, but if you're taking it away because you don't have space for that and the FPV system, then surely when you put it back you have to take away the FPV?

But if you're taking away the X3, you don't have a camera to operate? Sorry, Donnie - I didn't explain my confusion very well. :) I downloaded DroneVR a couple of weeks ago - can't believe I didn't find it years ago! For $30NZD it works fantastically using a $20 goggle with phone inserted - I...

Why?

How far are you willing to ship this stunning craft, Kev?

Kev - that is beautiful. That's all. ML
