    Failsafe

    Failsafe

    I have a Cinestar 6 with the DJI A2. Does the A2 assistant still show failsafe when I shut down the Futaba Tx?

    Batteries running hot after flight.

    I have 8 batteries but they are all the same. I have the HItec multi-charger X4 AC plus, not sure if it has the ability to check IR.

    Batteries running hot after flight.

    My all up weight is 11.5lbs but I have just been working with 8.4lbs while testing the new motor and esc combination. The 2 batteries I have used running these test have both ran hot at this reduced weight. With the old esc's and motors and at full weight of 11.5lbs the batteries were just warm...

    Batteries running hot after flight.

    Good information, I am not the best at maintaining storage levels for the batteries but they are kept in a storage room that runs about 78-80 degrees and never exposed to sunlight. I not sure if it's a storage problem or a mechanical problem. The fact that they started acting up just after the...

    Batteries running hot after flight.

    I am using 14 4.5 APC's and lifting 8.4 lbs I also used Tarrot carbon 1455 props lifting the same weight. The batteries heated up with both sets of props

    Batteries running hot after flight.

    I am flying with the Zippy 30c 5s 8000mah battery. As of late I have replaced both esc's and motors on my Cinstar 6. The motors I have now are Sunnysky's-4010/kv450 and the esc's are Range Video 60a. This combination seems to cause the batteries to run hot to the touch and also get puffy. The...

    Signs that esc's have not been calibrated for thrust?

    I have adjusted the gains to resolve the looping, not much success, I have tuned the WKM several time with no success and realigned the motors several time but still no success. I changed out the APC 14x4.8 to APC 14x5.5 prop and there was really no difference in drift. I didn't think of...

    Signs that esc's have not been calibrated for thrust?

    Thanks Andrew for clearing that up for me. The props that I am currently using are APC 14x5.5 form Quadrocopter. Prior to that I was using APC 14x4.8 Slo Fly. Another issue I am having is when I yaw right 90 degrees, the Cinestar will drift back to the left for about 8 to 10ft at 45 degree...

    Signs that esc's have not been calibrated for thrust?

    Calibration for TX max & min throttle during build? I purchased a Cinestar 6 with a Wookong flight control system along with six Maytech 45a opto esc's. Unfortunately, the person who built the machine did a very poor job because I have had nothing but problems from the very start. Fortunately...

    Searching for props

    I am looking for some that are a little less expensive. Graupner has a set of 14.8 that are in my range or some 14.47 carbon from Helipal.com

    Searching for props

    I currently have APC 14 x 4.7 SF. I have read in the forum that the Slow fly props are not that compatible with the WookongM system - causes quite a bit of the jitters. In the same thread they suggested the Graupner 11x5 prop. According to the spec page for the motors I have the suggested prop...
