    WARNING: Use Assistant with current F/W release at your own risk (P330CB - iOSD mini)

    WARNING: Use Assistant with current F/W release at your own risk (PATCHED) OK, this seems to not affect everyone, and the only difference between my P2, which is only a couple of weeks old and my brother's P2 is the battery loader and firmware. We both have iOSD minis, IRC 600mw VTX, FlyTrex...

    Phantoms are tough!

    Yes, the Phantom is a great platform for noobs, but I also contend that its plastic monocoque is also REALLY tough. I've watched my brother crash his into really tall trees and then fall through the limbs to the ground, fly it into the concrete driveway at full down throttle bending the gimbal...

    Taranis / EZUHF JR Module / IMRC EZUHF RX: any way to get RSSI?

    I've got 3 MRs now with this combo: Taranis TX with EZUHF JR module / EZUHF control RX (2 x diversity and 1 x 4 chn lite), and DJI NAZA V2 / iOSD mini. I have a fourth MR with EZUHF and EZOSD. The only time that I've had RSSI telemetry is either with an FrSky RX (before switching to EZUHF) or...

    F550: Slow engine spool up on M1

    Greetings. Yesterday, while flying at a local park, I almost aborted the F550 for the day. M1 did not start after arming. That was strange, because I had tested it before leaving home. I reconnected the motor/esc, but no change. Then I noticed that if I gave 3/4 power, or just enough to...

    I'll tell you how bad *** the NAZA is LOL

    I've been taking pain meds for a couple of weeks after back surgery, but finally felt well enough to try a couple of backyard flights to test some FPV gear. While looking at my F550 today, something looked askew. Finally, I realized that I had been flying the last few batteries with four 8...

    NAZA GPS mounting

    I haven't mounted mine yet, but have ordered some Du-BRO 5/32" brass collars for the task. Just wanted to see what some of you have done, and maybe this thread would be a good place to share ideas for GPS mounting. I am thinking about a few locations seen in the image. I guess that the idea...
