    Setting up retractable landing gear when using sbus port

    Let's simplify this and cover our bases. when you bind the tx with NO jumper it standardizes the SBUS portion of the receiver to channels 1-8 (Trust me I have this setup and have done this exact thing). All this means is that SBUS is 1-8 and the remaining channels that are open (the traditional...

    Setting up retractable landing gear when using sbus port

    Hi GoMotoMoto! When using the Taranis with the Naza most people bind channels 1-8 to SBUS which means channels 9-16 you can use for whatever you want. I think the easiest method is probably to get a Y harness like with ailerons on a plane into whatever channel. From there you can go to the...

    **WARNING** about tarot-rc.com

    First I will start by saying that I have had my issues with Tarot products being damaged in shipping. Second I would say that you have to be VERY patient with anything overseas. These tracking numbers update at "checkpoints" and a lot of time don't even register for a while as "usable" Mr...

    Please recommend programmable drone with camera, under $1,500

    Short range I would go with a phantom vision hands down. Anything higher range I would get an F450 kit with zenmuse and such.

    Drone Stabilization

    One of the things you should check as well is that all your motor mounting screws are the same tightness. Sometimes (depending on the frame and craftsmanship) you will get a motor that is not 100% level and when the NAZA uses the torque from the motors to rotate or even hover it can yaw. The...

    DJI 30a ESC with other motors

    Those ESC are MORE than enough! You use ESC per motor not the size of your frame. That set is built SPECIFICALLY for those motors. The only thing you would have to worry about would be length of the ESC wires. My dad build one and instead of running it throught the tube at the top he mounted the...

    Please Please Help me locate my Quad!!

    Kloner has a great point. Use a compass heading from your launch point and start walking. It has to be close to that point!

    DJI 30a ESC with other motors

    If you are going ESC AND motors then I would hands down just get an E300 hex kit. I had my doubts but when I got one...my god it is sweet! When they say ZERO vibrations they mean it! you can run the motors full throttle and not feel any vibrations. I use the quad kit on my tbs disco with my...

    DJI F450/NAZA Flyaway

    Agreed! I think this should be a general rule for anyone flying at the edge of line of site or in an area where you cannot walk and get your craft in the event of a crash. Great rule that I use for all of my craft :)

    Gimbal for dji f450

    Hi there Terry! Everyone always asks these types of questions (I know I have!) so it's all good! :) I would suggest a few things: 1. Check out the F450 owners thread as it has a lot of cool mods and information 2. If there is a gimbal within your price range youtube the model as someone...

    CarbonCore Cortex....Owners' Thread

    Hate to say it but you don't agree if it COULD</SPAN> be dangerous because he said it WAS. :) There is no doubt that it CAN be. It's a great feature just the way it is for MANY reasons and it also has its flaws. My point is that its design is a certain way and that the current way it's designed...

    CarbonCore Cortex....Owners' Thread

    Lol again respect your opinion but there was no "unexpected" throttle up. He was unprepared for the craft to do exactly as it is programed. The craft will instantly disengage when you remove failsafe. :) It uses plenty of common sense when it achieves the SET height. It is set so that it can...

    CarbonCore Cortex....Owners' Thread

    I appreciate that you have your own opinion and can respect that. Again the craft functioned exactly the way it was supposed to. Being unfamiliar with NAZA I would understand, and it's no big deal. One of the greater features about NAZA, in my opinion, is that before if moves it climbs to the...

    CarbonCore Cortex....Owners' Thread

    Hi There, :) It is not a safety issue nor is it an "un-commanded takeoff." It was a case of a switch, whos function is to put the craft in failsafe mode and bring it home at the designated height and land safely, that was previously for a timer being for RTH. He hit it, from what his story...

    dji F450 flt. time

    I have a fully loaded F450 (Zenmuse, iOSD mini, Naza V2, vtx and sbus rx) running all components off of one battery and get a solid 12 minutes of flight off of a 3S 4200 mah battery running the 10" props. My TBS disco with board cam, core, gopro, and 4200 3s stays up for nearly 20 minutes with...

    Broken ZM H3-2D (anti-vibration mount) - Looking for sources to replace it!

    allerc.com will have specific parts you can order. In my personal opinion they are the BEST for INDIVIDUAL dji parts. Hope this helps!

    Another Phantom Fly Away - IMPORTANT

    HI Sk8brd!! :) Thanks for interjecting :) I would agree...to say it's 100% not is overzealous. I think to assume that it is has the same meaning as well. My point was that every product has its kinks and like you I have amazing experiences with all (5) of my Naza's and aircrafts. I brought up...

    Another Phantom Fly Away - IMPORTANT

    Oh man it's that easy?! holy cow! Great send us the fix!!!!! It's because it isn't a bug in the software. So it's not your responsibility to look for external factors that would prevent your system from performing correctly? Hmmmm...So because it's wet out I should not slow down? I shouldn't do...

    Another Phantom Fly Away - IMPORTANT

    You are correct! Great news. It isn't unreliable! He can reliably fly it, just so happens that an external factor has presented itself to hinder performance. Just because you have a radio in your car should you always get your favorite station? No, because sometimes you're in a bad area or the...
