PicoSavvy Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 I thought this was worth sharing, I just got this little guy in, and it is absolutely tiny, here it is next to Apple EarPods for size comparison. Now there is no excuse for not being able to cool a pico tank Link to comment

Mirya Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 It is funny how making things small makes them adorable... because that fan is kinda cute! If hamsters were computer techs, these would be the fans they would install! Link to comment
PicoSavvy Posted September 11, 2015 Author Share Posted September 11, 2015 Lol. so you basically need one per LED Yea one per diode, you could probably get 2 comfortably per led star and about 4 of them would cover the led star It is funny how making things small makes them adorable... because that fan is kinda cute! If hamsters were computer techs, these would be the fans they would install! Yea when I saw it, I had to get it Link to comment

Cool cool. Im thinking about a commercial drone... Like the Phantom 3 Professional. Its really incredible what they've done recently; the GPS, flight modes, 4k video, and 25 minute flight time is very attractive. But thats a lotta $$.... I have to think about it. And make the $$ first lol Link to comment

And make the $$ first lol I could never buy commercial stuff, you can make a better unit for the same price or less. An example of this was when I bought my traxxas 1/7 super car when it first came out it was over 1000 dollars and I was one of the first people in line to buy one, after I bought it and play with it a bit I realized the stock electronics were crappy and upgraded them and that cost me another 600 dollars, instead I should have bought a roller and added my own electronics to it. One of the few commercial drones I have bought came from Team BlackSheep and it was their TBS GEMINI, the little thing was super fast, I regret selling it because I really did like it but I needed the money for something.

What would you recommend? I definitely want something with advanced GPS functions, but am not sure I could program that myself Link to comment
metrokat Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I could use that fan INSIDE my pico. For a little sea breeze to cool the guests at the tea party.... Link to comment
PicoSavvy Posted September 13, 2015 Author Share Posted September 13, 2015 What would you recommend? I definitely want something with advanced GPS functions, but am not sure I could program that myselfIf you want advanced gps function look at the dji naza, it has alot of futures. It seem you want a it for photography, I am no expert in that area, I just race them, but basically you want to spend money on the gimbal that the main thing apart from good motors.(http://www.phoenixflightgear.com/Phoenix-Flight-Gear-Frames_c_34-1-2.html) (http://www.multiwiicopter.com/airframes/) Frame, motor and esc depends in what you want to carry and your overall cargo weight. You want to carry a gopro, dslr camera, studio camera or your girlfriend ? Depending on your answer electronic choices will very. Now I will admit dji does sell some good commercial drones and are recommended by people, I personally I haven't had enough time on one to recommend one. For me it is saving time for black Friday or cyber Mondays so I can get my hands on one of these sexy machines. Link to comment
