    Sticky motor, any advice?

    One of the motors on my Phantom is sticky. When I spin it by hand, occasionally it will catch and the rotation will stop. I pulled that arm apart yesterday and did my best to clean out the motor, but it seems like there's something more to it than some dust lodged in there. I also took it out...

    Broken Battery Charger

    I did that, but I was hoping this would be a second charger so that I can do two at once. I'll figure out another place to get the banana plugs to XT60. Thanks.

    Broken Battery Charger

    Hey I just picked up one of these Onyx 235 chargers and doesn't seem to have the XT60 connection on it. Anybody know how to make this thing work?

    Edited up a few shots from yesterday's flight with Rhinos

    I've flown it about a dozen times now and I've got the hang of it. It does well at altitude. This is at just more than 4K feet. I flew it yesterday where I live at 8K, in 15-degree weather and it performed just as well. Maybe I lost a minute of battery life. http://vimeo.com/60720918

    What batteries and where?

    Excellent, thank you. I've found some domestic places now that have them with the XT-60 connectors. I picked up a few of these and they work well, plug and play. http://www.redrockethobbies.com/E-Flite ... 30xt60.htm

    What batteries and where?

    So I'm brand new to this, just got the Phantom going last weekend before shredding two props and now I'm grounded until the new ones get here, and I've got a naive battery question. I ordered batteries from Hobby Lobby and the specs were all good, but they didn't come with the XT-60 connectors...
