    Prop balancing!

    While careful balancing certainly does good, consider that the props unevitably produce vibrations exponentially to the copter air speed due to assymetric airflow over the blades, causing more lift on the blade moving forward and less on the one moving backwards. Sent from my iPad using...

    Odd log from iOSD

    Cw versus ccw props slightly different in actual pitch from manufacturer? Skickat från min Galaxy Nexus med Tapatalk 4

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    Unfortunately, as far as I am aware, there is no way to activate / deactivate it remotely with your TX. Have you gotten the autopano to work correctly (100%)? I discovered that it is always, consistantly, omitting one trigger point per turn! Rendering the feature completely useless! I told...

    Significant Vibration In GPS Mode Only

    I once experienced very unruly GPS loiter after having installed FPV cam and TX onboard. Turned out that some of the cannel frequencies in the 1.2GHz band interfered with the GPS receiver. Have you made any change in your video TX setup?

    DJI Release 5.22 Firmware

    The less than perfect 5.22 "Evaluation" (all releases I remember was Evaluation or Beta)firmware has now been around for three (3) months. It surprised us with broken Go-Home, broken gimbal tilt Control (USB-Connection dependant) and probably a few more less-known issues. When issues has been...

    Mysterious Lumix intermittent trigger fail on remote control

    Anybody knows why Lumix DMC-G3 every now and then ignores trigger commands from remote control port? Mostly it works ok, but sometimes it just ignores one or several trigger attempts and then work ok again. I have been trying various configurations, lenses, with manual focus, manual exposure...

    S800 alternative props

    Hi Mombasa, I have used the Xoar 14x5 woodies for almost a year now and they have behaved well. Easy to balance using copper tape. Might be a good idea to check the prop nut tightness some week after initial mounting since the wood will compress slightly. /Tomas

    Preventing a MR from taking off inadvertently

    During the situations your refer to I use to feed the copter from a power supply and set the supply's current limiter at about 2A. This would prevent any total bezerk spin-up. Though the motors may still give me a short stab in my face if something went wrong - I try to remember that. My other...

    Canada - License requirements for commercial aerial photography

    You might want to contact the Canadian FAA and ask them. They should know :)

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    No... Angular limits are available on the SLEW tab, also in360 mode. Though it has nothing to do with current limiting. It is a pure software based limit setting. It is very good for adjusting gimbal operation limits. But if the Picloc, by any reason go bezerk, this limit might not stop it...

    M1 stopped - latest WKM with latest firmware

    I have no personal experience of the S800. But if your setup has got bullet connectors between the ESC and motor, this might be a weak spot. Many bullet connectors on the market does not provide the kind of tight connection over time as neccesary for this application. Though, since you say it is...

    Two receiver with one radio

    As far as I am concerned binding two or more RX to the TX is not officially supported by Spektrum. But I remember reading about a Spektrum team pilot who had a bunch of receivers (like one for every wing servo, and there were many...) in his big scale aerobatics fix wing to achieve true...

    Two receiver with one radio

    Using Spektrum you can bind two RX to one TX. I use this setup on my 3-axis camera ship.

    DJI Ground Station - missing(?) features

    I agree. The user interface has big room for improvement. It is more like a development prototype, not refined for mission critical field ops.

    Fw 5.20 - (5.18 need upgrade)

    Noticed 5.20 now available on DJI download page. When I checked some minutes ago the release notes were still for 5.18 release - so for now it is not known what was done. Maybe a fix of intermittent in air motor cutouts reported insome RC-group posts? The DJI rep writes that 5.18 needs to...

    The "X-I" shaped frame - Something a little different

    Impressing :) I admire people who are able to design and mill their own copter buils.

    Whaaaaaa?? Counterclockwise motors running 20 degree's C hotter than Clockwise??

    By motor alignment we refer to any angular offset between the motor shaft and the copter z-axis (straight up). If one or several motors are offset it will inevitabely introduce an uneven power distribution since the yaw composant resulting from the offset thrust vectors (misaligned motors) must...
