Im unsure on my AUW, but just say a Cinestar 8 or hero gimble 1kg ish, zippy 8400 2826/12 and a OMD-5. I could never find the weight of the Cinestar anywhere? Only reason I had thought of 15x5 was for longer flight times. Redridinghood: Can you run your machine on anything other than 4s? Are...

Using Ecalc it tells me that 15x5 prop and a 4s will me over the max current of a 2826-12. With a 4s max prop size: 14x5 With a 5s:12x5 With a 6s:11x5 Am I doing something wrong?

I didn't realize it was all down to the algorithms. I had assumed it would be like the existing gimbles on the market where it was all down to user tuning. I will have a talk to Kim and see what he says about it/ the camera options and user tuning on the heroes. Kim showed me this and it looks...

Whoops I was meant to ask what points people don't like about Spektrum? Hmm, ok what combo would you recommend, the 2814s with 11-13" props, or go up to the 4120/orbit 15/20 like your self and bigger props?

Do you have a link to what your talking about? Im lost

Cheers Ryan

Ok so is there no simple option for a bolt on telemetry unit? Ive seen the eagle tree seagull but its a decent amount of money, I would rather buy a transmitter with it built in, if thats the case.

Ok so stick with futaba, but then how do i do telemetry, doesn't look like the jeti works with futaba, only with their own remotes? What do you mean by secondary telemetry system? I know about Quantum telemetry from hobby king, its quiet cheap so a bit unsure about it, especially when relying on...

Ok i see, I have my f550 set up with s-bus using my futaba t8fg. Its a good remote but I would like reliable telemetry system. The I also like the tray style radio and think it would be very comfortable. I don't want to get a 18MZ as they are crazy expensive. So If I got another t8fg, what would...

Ok I will try one of each first then. 4s/5s/6s and see what i find. So your using both 12 and 13" props, do you change them around for certain situations? Or is one set better than the others? I was planning on buying it. What are your thoughts on it? I just searched on google and could not...

Thanks for that, So the 15x5.5 fox tech props are 14g each also, so in theory they should work well with WKM? What props are you running on your Cinestar now BorisS? Im still unsure about running 4/5/6s batteries I know the s800 runs on 6s, but from what I've seen is 4s is the most common on the...

Ive seen in the past that 11-12" props have been the best combo on Octos with WKM. And it was known that larger props weren't smooth. But then on the s800 they run 15" props and are smooth. Has something changed? Because surely that would mean everyone would be running 14-15" props on their...

Yes I will get spares, I am a bit unsure about how many spares of everything I should get. Also on my spares list was: 4x booms 2x motors 1x esc Those props are just a selection of props to test, I know the 11x5s work but also want to try and get something larger to work. I have thought long...

Ok so after close to a year of lurking on here I'm getting close to what I think is the right combo of parts to build a great AV machine. I would appreciate as much input from everyone as possible if you think there is a better part or combo out there. The goal is to fly a OMD-5 or 5D MKII...

Hi Guys, Looking for help picking motors and batteries for my Cinestar 8 build. I will be running WKM and 11x5 or 12x5 Props. Weight about 5kg flying gh2 or 5d. ESCs: Castel creations Phoenix 50s Im tossing up between Axi 2814-22 motors or Tiger 2814-11 motors. AXI motor efficiency: 82% at...

Boriss, have you had any luck getting the octa to fly soothly yet?

Hi just a T rex 250 so far. The Cinestar will be for work.

Was in Hamilton, but I've just moved to Wellington. Should I just keep reading the forums to try and get a grip on it all?

From what Ive researched so far it looks like it will cost somewhere around the 10k nz mark to build something, possibly more or less. The most important thing for me is learning, I want to understand how everything works and why so i can eventually build the best multi possible for my needs. I...

Hi Guys, nice to see some other NZ guys on here. Im about to take the plunge and build a Cinestar for filming, but its hard to tell from all of this how well does the dji unit work? Is it worth buying over mk or hoverfly?
