I thought with Kickstarter if the product didnt come to fruition that you didnt get paid anything??

there is also another start up that is trying to make the first autonomous drone. So if it really is the first then clearly the one I posted previously is not a completed product. I was asked to be a part of this but I dont have the engineering background to be of use to them. I'm just...

Agreed, they dont really talk about much. There are a few other companies coming out with these as well. Though most are not using a DJI phantom!

That is exactly what I am saying. I just sold my av200 so I don't need another. It is a great gimbal when tuned right under a decent controller.

Maybe you can start by changing your name to Shady Politician or Tax Payer Abuser Guy. Then you might get all kinds of things sent to you. :)

Bart, I have the hovergimbal and could not get it to do a real full 90. Hoverfly was not able(or willing) to help me figure this out. I just gave up and decided if I needed a directly downward facing shot I had to re adjust the neutral point down about 20 degrees. On a brighter note, now that...

BTW, is it the software or the av130/200 that limit it to 90degrees movement? Its the pot right? I find it very frusterating that I cant get it to stay level AND point straight down.

That video was awesome. I love the soundtrack to American Beauty. And clearly flying in front of a tower with 100's of cell antennas does nothing to a multirotor.

Just to follow up on their squishy-ness. when they were first delivered they were clearly in a hot UPS truck for a while. As they cooled to room temp they definitely firmed up a little. Still some softness that is less like a puffy pack but more like a thin layer of foam under the shrink...

Looks great to me. I am still using my av130 under control of the HFP gimbal outs. It's OK at best. But I still have a pot on there as to some newer systems that put the board right on the gimbal. I feel this is teh very first thing to eliminate on a servo driven system. If you were to use...

It's been a while, but I suppose I owe you an apology or another beer. :)

Yet you guys continue to support them???? !!!! ???? I dont get it.

If all you have to do is loosen a few screws, why dont you do it and then not post that it needs it? This reminds me of a 57' chevy I looked at years back and the guy told me all it needed was a battery or he would start it for me. I walked.

When Ben wakes up in the morning, does he put his pants on one leg at a time, or does he just go straight to making gold records? :)

My thoughts on the av200 are that it is mechanically pretty well built. It lacks in a few areas though. One MAJOR thing that gets me even more than being brushless or not is the aerodynamics of the thing especially with the 360 kit and legs. When you are hovering in 0 wind its fine but as...

Yeah that is a little annoying. I didnt realize the Andersons didnt require soldering. How does it get a good connection then? You can tin the wire tips and cut back to where there isnt so much solder as well, which works fine. But I know what you're talking about.

I saw that on channel 2 news last night. Drones are kinda loud and annoying. Now they need to ban loud people and their radios as well. I fly, but honestly I want peace and quiet. It was one thing when there were only 10 people in the world doing this but thanks to the Phantom and the whole...

Right now I have no reason to change as I see it. I dont have GPS and AH is completely disabled. it sounds like I just need to wait for a better controller to hit the market. Thats what I needed to know.
