The battery capacity would be nice. I still plan on putting the battery telemetry on my Hexa for the DX8 so this is an option for the DX8 as well. # of satellites would be sweet though along with the other info.

I agree! Welcome Crashcast

I just wanted a straight answer from somebody on weather or not I'd loose TX/RX signal during a flight with my current configuration. I was told by a Spektrum person, don't want to mention name, that it is not an issue. I could tell there was def. something going on between Spektrum and...

I spoke to someone from Spektrum and was told that there is no problem with the DX8 and the satelitte. He seemed to take some offense when I mentioned the above quote from Holgar. I tried to get confirmation, if it was safe to fly my hexa with the DX8. I was told it was safe and that the MK DX8...

I use two 2 cell lipos in series with a Y-Adapter. I use anywhere from two 2650mah lipos in seriers to two 5000mah lipos in series. All are 2 cell, all run in series with a Y-adapter, and all are deans! I've flown with deans for over a year now and everything has been fine. I've heard the...

Bart, I don't think using the battery back would be very efficient to use as a power source for charging your lipos. I use the battery pack to power my FPV equipment. It powers my FPV RX and the 12 inch monitor we use for FPV. In that application it does great. We used it last week. It powered...

looks great

Great! Just GREAT! That is the exact set up I use! Is it just the AR8000 receiver satellite that can cause issues or is it the whole DX8 set up? I've not noticed anything weird with the set up I have but this makes me very nervous. Did they say if it had to do with the AR8000 being DSMX?

As the the two above me asked, what mount is that? I'd say build the Hexa, little more lift no? Congrats on the build.

:) For the 1st time in a long time and it went very well. I have only flown FPV with the Hexa a handfull of times and was very nervous but we have some potential gigs coming up that forces me to get comfortable quickly...yesterday was a good 1st step. We flew at a golf course on a Par 3 so...

I don't think you can add or remove while charging as you want to charge the six lipos when they are near the same capacity. I have a couple of different sets of lipos, all that fly in series. I charge a couple of thunderpower 2S 5000mah batteries together, I have 4 turnigy 2S 4500mah lipos that...

Hmm... no Bart I don't think I have what you describe. What ever excess movement I have now when I shake the Hexa is from where it is attatched on the 4 inner narrow holes. That is my main culprit now. Like I said before I'm waiting for a carbon fiber baseplate that will mount with 4 rubber...

Bart the ICharger 206B is the best thing I've bought in RC since being in the Hobby hands down and I fly more than the Hexa. It can charge up to 6 Lipos at once in about 45 minutes, It's a godsend. If I have a power supply I can fly and charge all day with out interruption.

This is truly a shame! I received my RTF from Alex at NextGen RC almost a year ago to the day. It is a thing of beauty! The soldering and craftsmanship that went into it looks like a machine built it. I've never, ever, EVER had a mechanical issue with the Hexa. It's still flies incredible a year...

Bart I'm glad to share my settings, I will put them up when I get home from work. The movement in your camera tray sounds like you have some play between the tilt servo gear and the gear on camera tray. I had this problem when I first put together my mktr and it made for horrible video. I...

Hmm. hard to say! It's pretty tight but if I shake it I can see some flex but i have to shake it pretty good. Are you talking about the tilt rocking back and forth? I had come across some of that in the tilt and it was driving me crazy. Like I said i have the compensations set really low and it...

Thanks guys! Ryder we had like three 65 degree days this past week and it got rid of almost all the snow. It's cold here again and actually snowing as i type this. I had no choice but to keep tinkering with the MKTR because I recommended it for our company. I felt I had to do everything I could...

Let me start by saying it is stabilized but I thought the raw was pretty good too. It's also not representative of where I want my final product though. It's still just R&D. Video shows virtually no vibrations other than on a quick decent and the only real movements were from the mount itself. I...

I've thought about buying something like this for a ground station albeit a bit cheaper and don't need one this complex. http://www.handtrucksrus.com/sr.aspx I could keep everything hooked up and ready to go and it would be easy to lug around the power source I'm using...

It's a little slow Bart but not terrible.
