    Interferance!

    JoeBob. Got 10" separation and Wi-Fi is off. I'll try your other suggestions but I'm leaning towards your 'shoot it' idea. I'm on the verge of a new gimbal, I've already been checking-out the Tarot gimbal.

    Interferance!

    Thanks for that JoeBob, BUT, that's what I've got! Still got the lines tho!:dejection: Might the interference be coming through from somewhere on the F550 distribution board? I've got the GCU wired directly into the board. Like I say I'm about to chuck the Zenmuse in frustration. I'm a bit picky...

    Interferance!

    Been a while since I've reported back on this, truth is I'm getting a bit annoyed/disheartened by this FPV stuff. Still got the lines travelling up the screen and when I take a hard look at it, feeding straight from the GoPro has just made a very small difference. I've tinkered with cable...

    Interferance!

    JoeBob. Got a cable and fed the Tx direct from the Gopro USB and it's a whole lot better. Still not perfect but just about acceptable. Would some shielding on the USB cable help?

    Interferance!

    JoeBob. Is there a ready made lead available for Gopro USB/VTX?

    Interferance!

    I'm in the UK so a camera from 'Ready Made RC' would take a while. Yes, I've tried moving the antennas around. Also tried powering the FPV stuff with a separate battery. I've seen a lot of talk of ferrite rings on the leads, would that help? But where to start! It's all a bit annoying as it's...

    Interferance!

    Gopro and monitor on PAL. I don't have a separate FPV cam. I'm still on a steep learning curve with all this so what would I do with a separate camera to check things. I'm willing to try anything so what FPV camera would I need and what sort of price to pay. The channels are the same on TX and...

    Interferance!

    haha49. The scrolling lines are there whilst on the ground, no motors running and doesn't change when the rig is moved. I've tried all the NTSC/PAL settings to no avail. My suspicion is it's coming from the Zenmuse because for a split second before the Gopro wakes up the screen looks OK.

    Interferance!

    Interference I'm struggling a bit with my first FPV set up. The problem is moving lines travelling up my screen and I'm a bit confused what to do to fix it. I'm using PAL on the Gopro and monitor and have tried NTSC to no avail. The kit is as follows:- Flamewheel F550 DJI AVL58 Zenmuse Gimbal...

    Failsafe (yet again)

    chipwich. Now that I've proved my failsafe I'm fancying setting the 3 position switch to do 'manual' and setting/mixing a 2 position switch to do failsafe. Any good sources/youtube's how to do this for a Spektrum DX8 bearing in mind this is still pretty new stuff to me?

    Failsafe (yet again)

    Sorted! Just tried out the switched failsafe and it works fine. From a low hover the multi rises to a set height and returns, from height it drops and pauses then returns. Every return was no more than 2 metres from home. Didn't try loss of signal failsafe but that looks to work logically in...

    Failsafe (yet again)

    Benjamin K. I set the whole thing up in 'Acro' (would be fixed-wing normally?) I'll see if I can do some screen shots, if I can figure out how to. Not sure what it would show tho, throttle drops to zero when failsafe is activated and that seems to be that. However a fresh pair of...

    Failsafe (yet again)

    Oh no! Too late, I HAVE been flying. Everything seems to work as expected (thanks to your previous advice) but have steered clear of failsafe. Like I say, I have my AR8000 RX failsafe set for loss of signal. In the Naza Assistant I have my 3 position flight mode switch (on a DX8) set to...

    Failsafe (yet again)

    Posted this in another area but got no response so I'm having a go in this dedicated area. Apologies. Failsafe:cower: When I've got the set up linked to Naza Assistant and I switch off the TX the throttle goes to just over 50% (as set in the Spektrum RX) which is nice! BUT when I move my 3...

    Well I managed to try this out (at long last) and everything works a treat! SO................. to move on to my next question. Failsafe:cower: When I've got the set up linked to Naza Assistant and I switch off the TX the throttle goes to just over 50% (as set in the Spektrum RX) which is nice...
