    Bebop 1 Battery Hack?

    Yes with the 2200 lipo I used it worked exactly the same. But any bigger batter hangs out the back too much. I just used the cheap 2200 as I have a few spare. You may need to make the battery lead shorter to get it to fit well

    3 Meter Disco Replica

    It is now fitted with a ZOHD autopilot giving Autolaunch and orbit/Full stabalize/ and GPS return to launch and orbit on a 3 pos switch I also built a 2.5 meter replica of the Ebee pro survey drone a while ago with an APM flight controller

    Disco controllable immediately after launch?

    I am pretty sure it has full control from launch Climb and orbit give you a few minutes to calm down and decide what you are going to do next, so not a bad idea from parrot.

    Don't use carbon props!

    I got some of these and they are balanced and work ok . But are noisy/buzzy and dont produce as good results as the genuine props in terms of smooth response
