Hello All,
I went for my first flight today with my newly built MHQ2 DIY 250 FPV drone. I am extremely happy with the build HOWEVER I had two problems arise. The first is that I had my battery alarm set to go off at 3.5V to give me a little time to land once it went off without worrying. It went off and within 15 seconds it fell out of the sky...
So the first question is: Is 3.5V alarm to late of a warning? Why did it shut off rather than keep flying?
Secondly, on crashing it broke both landing gear legs and cracked the top frame. I knew 3d printed parts would not be as strong but it is also very heavy and I feel that I should probably get a different frame. Is there anywhere to get a H frame similar in design to the MHQ2 (http://www.hovership.com/2014/10/27/mhq2...available/) with folding arms that is carbon fiber? I dont need a full kit with PDB or anything and trying to not spend a TON of money.
Any recomendations?
Thank you
