    I have confirmed that my data link is connecting, and all appears to be working as expected, but I still haven't used any waypoints yet. Can someone give a run down of their work flow when using the single way point system? I know that I have to have the craft connected and hovering at least 5...

    There are a lot of changes coming to google earth, so I assume we will see it in this app as well. 3d mapping will be common soon. I could see that helping out in this area.

    Good job, DW. I finally got mine to connect last night. I'll give it a try this weekend when I can get to the flying field. You were right, I just had them to close together. It was exciting to see my location pop up at least though, so thanks for the info. -Terry

    Which antenna for which device?

    So no more 1.3 for you kloner? I thought I saw you talking about how good it was working for you, so much better than the 5.8. I almost bought an entire 1.3 set up at your recommendation. Glad I didn't follow through on that one. ;-)

    Yes, Handshake failure. I'll give that a try tonight. So far, I've only tested it in the workshop, so it was always within 5m of each other. -Terry

    I got mine last week, but haven't been able to get it to connect yet. It keeps saying there is an error connecting and lists a few things to look for. Any advise? Everything they list seems to be ok. -Terry

    Thanks! I've had a lot of fun so far with this hex.

    East Coast Fly-In?

    Mailman, you and Bart are not to far from each other. Maybe I'll just head up that way one weekend and the three of us can catch up. It doesn't seem to be getting much traction with anyone else. I have another FPV friend that lives up that way as well. Maybe get 4 of us together at least? -Terry

    It flies - what a learning curve!

    I'm in the same boat. I still have 2 Futaba Attack radios at my mom's house in storage. There are still parts of my Associated RC-10 laying around also, but I always loved my Frog. Fun days back then!

    Awesome photo gig

    Hey gang, I just had an awesome photo gig over the weekend that I wanted to share with you. Truth be told, we didn't exactly get the results that we were looking for, but the weather was mostly to blame. The project was to capture a few aerial photos of Artscape in Baltimore. It's the...

    Aeroxcraft New! - Landing Gear for DJI F550 for use with Aeroxcraft GoPro Gimbal.

    I wouldn't run it without a BEC. It states that you need to do so right in the manual. I don't think the wookong put out enough amperage to run external servos. You risk have a power issue. On a side note, my wookong failed to regulate my 4s to the proper output for my servos. The very first...

    Anyone running 3 blade props on F550?

    I had plans to run the 10 inch 3 blade gws props on mine, but never did get around to it. I used them on my quad prior to this build and loved them. They are an absolute ***** to balance (buy a lot of scotch tape), but work great once they are. Let me know if you give them a try. I'd love to...

    Which antenna for which device?

    Ok, when dealing with RHCP ant, which do you use on the tx and which on the rx? I remember reading ages ago it was skew planner on the tx and cloverleaf on the rx, but then I just read the opposite somewhere else. What do you do?

    Have we come too far too fast?

    I agree. While I love my CC board, and applaude Open Pilot for the efforts thus far, the target that you are shooting for is not stationary, it's moving very fast. By the time they get their full board out and released, there will be 4 other companies that already beat them to it. I hardly think...

    Toilet Bowl

    I was able to put it out on the arm and it seems right now. One of the big things I wanted to make sure I did with the install was give it the ability to be moved easily. I ended up bolting 2 servo x-horns through the arm and mounting it to the top with double-sided tape. So far so good.

    Night flying HEX aka the UFO

    I love this.. good job! One of the other developers in my office does a lot of work with RGB LED's and he's been trying to get me to do this for a while. I'll have to show him your video. ;-)

    Foxtech M700 7" monitor

    Looks nice, kloner! Let us know how it works once you get to kick the tires. BTW.. what's all the camo in the background? Is that your boat? Pretty sweet!

    Hey Jack, That would be fine. I'm available after this weekend if you want to link up. I haven't tried much video tbh, but i don't see anything bad in the feed so I think it's good.
