    5.14a Update

    You never know, this might actually be better. It looks like they removed somethings, which in my book, can be a good thing. No more intelligent go home.

    Cineron: Zenmuse for SRH?

    Has anyone heard anything about the new Cineron gimbal for single rotor helis? This video mentions it was co-developed with DJI, and the footage reminds me a lot of something shot with a Zenmuse, except these helis are hauling Red One's and Sony FS-100's. https://vimeo.com/35672071 -Terry

    5.14a Update

    Just saw this on the DJI site. What’s changed?  Modify the Fail-safe mode: there is no intelligent go-home, and the input range of altitude go-home is 20m~300m.  Adjust the aircraft landing speed during go-home, the higher the altitude, the faster the decline.  Enhance the logical...

    DJI + Futaba 6308SBT Telemetry failure

    I heard a new firmware release came today. You think they addressed it already? I haven't looked at the update list myself. -Terry

    Super-size my F550

    I think you end up with about 2mm of space left between the props if you run 11's without the extensions. I designed some extensions that push it out to a 650 size and had them cnc'ed from carbon fiber. That seems to work great for me.

    XAircraft Xaircraft FC as standalone camera gymble controller?

    The input comes from the AHRS unit, unless you want to also run a signal in to control the pitch or roll of the gimbal.

    Thanks, Bart, for breaking this up. I'm sure it will help out tons. -Terry

    Proposal to change the dji forum in 2 sections.

    We might want to post some "search tips" as a sticky at the top of each forum. Sometimes new users may not know that the question they are about to ask has already been answer several times before. Showing them the correct way to look for it may help with the redundancy.

    Proposal to change the dji forum in 2 sections.

    Bart, that is probably the best way to split it up. I'm for it.

    DJI needs to get their SH*T Together!!!!

    Why bother? It's a dead horse if you ask me. If there is even a chance of them breaking, and it's very, very well documented, why bother with it? Is it really to save the few bucks difference in another brand? I bet you spend more in parts and time making repairs after a prop failure than you...

    DJI needs to get their SH*T Together!!!!

    Do not use those props, period. No matter what anyone tells you. The design of the hub itself is bad, even if they fix the poor plastic issue, the oblong shape of the hub just lends itself to failure.

    XAircraft Xaircraft FC as standalone camera gymble controller?

    You sure can, and from what I hear, they work better as a camera stabilizer than the flight controller. You will need to get a BEC to power it.

    Return to home "direction"

    I'm pretty sure it's in the manual, and I think the distance is 60 meters from home = turn, < 60 = fly backwards home. If you find it, let us know what the exact distance is. -Terry

    Aeroxcraft NEW! Aeroxcraft VTR125 Gimbal - For Sony Nex5N

    Any idea when those will be available? Also, do you have any more video shot on board? I finally picked up an NEX5N and this would work well with my existing landing gear from you. thanks! -Terry

    Super-size my F550

    13inch props won't fit, even with the extensions. You can squeeze 12's on there, but they handle poor compared to the 11's. Your flight time will go down, not up, and I don't have any idea how you will use the S800 motors, if you can even buy them separately. I'd rethink your plan before you...

    WKM versions question

    I've been flyin 5.12 with no problems at all on my hexacopter. A lot of people report problems as the fault of the firmware, when in fact they are not. Almost all of the problems I've seen from F550 owners are, in my opinion, from the ESCs and not the firmware. People have reported sudden flips...
