I'm using the DJI 5.8 downlink system that came with the S800 EVO package and my picture on the monitor is real poor quality. I pick up the signal on channel #3 on the receiver. Only channel from 1 to 8 that receives picture. I have a 1.2 system on my F550 and it works good using the same...

Mine were hard to lock into the frame. Never did feel or hear a definitive click to let me know they were locked in. Don't push to hard or you'll snap the lever. Think I read somewhere that the lever goes down to 35 degrees

There is a little metal protrusion out of the blue absorbers that fits into the hole in the screw above it on the underside of the arm. 4 of the 6 absorbers are in the hole on my bird. Not sure, but I would think that as your flying, the arms would want to pull up and away from the absorbers...

Hope you can see in the photos what I was speaking of. Blue dampening devices appear to be white in the photos.

My experience with prop vibration mirrors what has been said here. My EVO flies pretty smoothly, but I was curious to see if centrifugal force would put the props in the proper position on their own, so I purposely off set the props, then spooled up the motors while on the ground. The one arm...

Topflight Chris has suggested an aftermarket battery tray in a previous post that looks the goods - right now I am doing the same as you and although its not rigid I feel its ok for the time being. I'm building a tray out of aluminum. Will have a top plate and a bottom plate, connected...

What I did, was put my props on of the one arms, out of plane and then started up the motors, to see if they would plane out. They didn't move much and the vibration was noticeable. Wondering if we don't get the props lined up perfectly, will we be getting unwanted vibrations. My guess is yes...

How are you guys strapping on your batteries? The battery tray doesn't feel real solid. With the weight of the batteries, you can actually see it bend. I have two 6s 5500 batteries that I Velcro to the tray and then put a Velcro strap around the batteries and the tray. Now I add a velcro strap...

Kloner, Why is Transport Risk a killer company?

Thanks everyone. Starting to call these places now.

If the name of the insurance company pops up in your head, let me know. Thanks

Yes, in the USA

Checked Multi Rotor Forums and not finding much on liability insurance. So far I have two quotes from separate insurance companies. Both are approximately $825.00 for 1 million dollars in coverage for 1 year. Is this amount normal? I was told to start a LLC (limited liability company). Any...

I just checked into liability insurance for my Multi rotor. It was suggested that I start by own business (LLC) and get liability insurance. I've been quoted a cost from two insurance companies. Approx $825.00 (per year) for 1 million in liability/insurance.

Three grommets on each of the four places where the Zenmuse attaches to the landing gear

What is the best way to attach Zenmuse 15 to the S800 EVO? It has three rubber grommets on four corners. Whats a good way to get it attached?

Who did you purchase the S800 EVO from?

I'll not be biased on my report of the build and flight testing as I have my own personal favourites. Sorry for any typing errors but I'm on my mobile travelling to Somerset and multitasking has never been my strong point. Cheers Eyeball. Have you done anymore testing/flying?

Chris, I'm getting the S800 EVO with Zenmuse for the Nex5. I see you are set up for 1 and 2 man operation. I'm getting 2 Futaba 8SGs. Will I need the 14 SG to do 1 man operation? Also, can you turn video on and off and switch to stills with the Zenmuse?
