How to do a DroneBase mission: Complete Guide!

Still getting used to being on camera ;D. Let me be clear on one thing: YOU NEED TO HAVE A FAA CFR 107 TO MAKE MONEY FLYING DRONES! Please get certified before flying for business. Drone base is a great way to make money doing what you love: Flying drones! I can typically make up to $50 an hour by flying multiple drone base missions an hour. In fact, the mission flown in this video was sold for $19! I was not compensated in any way to make this video, it's just a really cool tool that I use for a little bit of side cash.

H-King J3 Navy Cub (NE-1) 1400mm (PnP) Complete Build Guide and Unboxing

We are going to be taking a look at the H-king J3 cub Navy edition. First things first, I would just like to say that I was impressed by the extremely fast shipping. It had been dispatched from the international warehouse and was at my house in three days.  Moving on to unboxing, although the box was slightly dented, nothing inside was damaged. The quality of the foam on this model is incredible, with the molded ribbing in the wings and how smooth it is.  Unlike the gloss coating that non- naval cubs carry, this model perfectly exemplifies the traditional matte blue and gray scheme carried by the 230 navy cubs used in WWII. the foam is both a blessing and a curse, however, as it creases and wrinkles more than on less scale frames. this means you need to be more careful in the assembly, transportation, and flying process if you want to maintain the beauty of this model.

I found that the landing gear was especially difficult to piece together. When you attach the rear wheel, first install the servo and c-clip looking thing that looks like this. attach the Z-Bend servo rods to the Servo base and the tail wheel, THEN you can go ahead and screw the tail wheel into place. When you go to install the main gear, it might look like the pieces don't fit, don't worry, and DON'T try and force it into place. Take the wing struts and place them in these slots then screw the landing gear on top. Install the gear dam to secure the wheels.  after the landing gear was assembled, the rest was relatively easy to piece together. One thing I would like to see in future models from h-king is better directions or labeling on the screws used on the model. I ended up having to glue the horizontal and vertical stabilizers on instead of screwing them because I used the

wrong screws and they got stuck. If you look closely in the bag of goodies that came with this model, you can find strips of wire with loops at the end, along with a bag of tiny springs. Also, look for a bag with plastic securing hardpoints. we are going to be using the small ones, so save the others for the wings. These pieces are used for supporting the vertical stabilizer on the REAL airplane. On this model, they are more for looks, but man does they look good once you put them on. This model also comes with the hardware to put them on the bottom as well, but I left them off because I might fly through grass sometime, which would knock these off.

Glue the larger hardpoints to the wing. Again, I used hot glue for this. Next, comes the wing assembly. Use the included fiber rods and slide them into their designated slots. The wider diameter, shorter length rod goes in the middle slot and the two small diameters, long length rods go on either side. you might need to slide them in and out a couple times to make it easier to put together. I used hot glue to secure both wing halves. At this point, you are going to want to bind your radio to the plane. I didn't show this part in the process because everyone uses a different radio system.

 Plug the "y" connector into the aileron wings and connect it to the plane. when you plug the servos in, they will automatically center, allowing you to plug in the control rods and linkages. install the servo horns with these screws. I only used two screws on each, but you can use all four if you want. make sure the servos are centered in the fuselage, then attach the linkage ends to the control horns. We're almost done! Next, plug the wing struts into the wings and use the same screws you used for the control horns to hold them in place. after you finish this step, flip the plane over and install the propeller. You're Done! Overall, this is an amazing model at a super low cost. it shipped fast and although some parts were difficult to understand, it went together quite well. I would highly recommend this model to anyone who has previous building experience or a love for scale models.

Hey Guys, There won't be a video this Thursday. I am working on reviewing the J3 Navy Cub by H-King, and I want to make a quality (non-rushed) video. I hope you understand!

How To: Reverse a Servo with the FRSKY Taranis

 If you want to reverse a servo or control input in the Taranis, you are in luck because there are two easy ways to do this. For the first option, select the model in your radio you have a reversed servo on. get to the home screen for this model, then tap on the menu button. Hit page until you reach the 5th slide. select the channel you want to be reversed, then press and hold the enter button. A submenu will pop up, so go ahead and hit enter on the option that says "edit". scroll down to the weight option and tap enter. Use the plus and minus keys to scroll to the opposite number you see. Positive 100 becomes negative 100, negative 50 becomes positive 50 and so on. The second option is equally simple. get to the model's home screen, tap "menu", then tap "page" until you reach the 7th slide. use the plus and minus keys to scroll down to the last row of arrows on the right. Simply hit enter and you will see the arrow switch direction, indicating that you have successfully switched the direction of the control input. You can always double check by going back to the model home and tapping the "page" button until you see the input screen. I hope this helped you, and if it did, you can help me out too by subscribing and liking the video. Thanks for watching!
