    A2 fly-away and crash

    Sure... Post the file. It is helpful to see data.... Fired up does not mean it recorded a new homepoint..... Only watching for the rapid flashes can confirm that it is recorded. Have you checked batteries in TX? I have "charged" my TX and gone to fly and had radio failure right in from of...

    A2 fly-away and crash

    Matt, Understanding what happened will help prevent this type of occurrence, but blaming the MFG. until you can define the cause is really not helpful.... Sorry... MHO... So I have seen and heard about this type of condition many times.... I do not have facts, so I will offer opinions based on...

    Wow, and I was beginning to feel like I'm not a newb....

    Did you happen to see the colors of the LED's? If in GPS mode did you wait to have it record homepoint???? Rapid Green Flashes.... Could it have been in RTH/ Failsafe either by switch or not correctly set-up in assistant with endpoints for forced RTH? My theory.... The Naza thought it was in...

    Why coax?

    Cray... Do your homework on the entire aircraft before stepping off....so your not struggling to make all of the components work together after you buy... The biggest challenge for me with X8 or coaxial is to get the entire "system" to work together..... Consider the Battery location, Gimbal...

    Sport pilot VS private pilot and 333 exemption

    Insurance

    It seems that many go with $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 Liability Coverage to CYA the company & then add Film Production Insurance (or a rider under the production company insurance) for the EXPENSIVE camera/ lens... RED, LENS & ACCESSORIES. In many cases the CAMERA/ LENS is the BIG money item at...

    Failsafe

    Many have seen the same as you..... The blue bar between flight modes does not highlight when you turn off the radio while attached to assistant.... BUT..... it does show the loss of RF in the bottom bar.... this confirms failsafe.... BUT.... to be sure..... (Props Off) .... power everything...

    FREEFLY Systems Freefly ALTA, RTF collapsible hexacopter

    Max... I want to go on record as stating that I am not calling BS. For all I know, the motors depicted in the current released information are just a mock-up or prototypical. I meant nothing derogatory toward Freefly, but agree with those speculating that the motor in the release photos &...

    FREEFLY Systems Freefly ALTA, RTF collapsible hexacopter

    Just an opinion....I have no facts.... My guess is that motors are being built as an OEM via Danlions....for FF.... They just selected a standard case and had them produced to their own specifications. This is a pretty common practice as you can order nearly any motor with your mane on it as an...

    MontoRC has 16" and 18" still in stock.... 17" seem to fly off the shelves as this is the most common blade size for U7- 490 kva...

    CF prop options

    Well, I balanced the Maytech over the last couple nights. The balance out of the package was a bit better than the Foxtech Supreme Lite I had been using. Just a lit bit of sanding on the back of the heavy ear and the ears were balanced. Took about 5 minutes. As far as the Fore/Aft (Hub)...

    CF prop options

    (Disclaimer- This is my opinion & from my observations) T-Motor CF props are "sandwich" CF props that have cork in the center of each ear. These props are the best available out in the market. They are manufactured by Falcon. The Cork center is used to reduce weight. When you get to larger...

    XAircraft SuperX

    jwoike, Can you provide AUW/ Prop & Motor.... Just a thought... may be completely wrong, but is the aircraft too heavy? When a FC is trying to hold Altitude and it is at 60% or more throttle, many FC cannot hold altitude in forward flight. I have seen this behavior when an aircraft has a high...
