    DJI Data Link

    Not sure that's right. I know that AT&T will let you tether wirelessly on an iPhone. Not sure about other devices. There is a charge, of course, but it's only 30/month compared to the $60/month for a dedicated 3G card.

    XAircraft Anyone speak to Jeffery from XAircraftUSA lately?

    That's a popular question these days. From what I hear, he hasn't been returning any calls or voicemail.

    XAircraft Exploding props

    GO4IT, when did you buy your kit? I'm just wondering if they are still selling them with the bad props well after they found out, or if maybe you have had yours for a while and the problem is just now coming to light. Also, where did you buy it?

    Drifting in GPS

    Nothing at all, Boris. It's bone stock out of the box. I was looking through the software and I can't really tell which of the gains would control that.

    Drifting in GPS

    Hey gang, I finally wrapped up my DJI install and get some tests in. Overall, I'm very pleased, but there is some drift when in GPS mode. So far, all of my settings are stock. Any idea were I should be looking to remove this drift? It seems to be ok most of the time, but maybe 1/3 times it...

    New vTX and Antennas

    Nice set up, Bart. I'm working on something simular myself right now. I found a decent 7 inch monitor on amazon that I've added as well. I love flying in the goggles, but there are a lot of times when I would like to be able to bounce back and forth between LOS and FPV. I'll post up a pic or...

    Hello from Pennsylvania

    Good to see you around here, Kevin. I see the CopterControl board is treating you well. The videos are great!

    XAircraft X650v Tech help please?

    Jeff from XAircraft USA had a statement about the recall on the front page of his website. It is now gone. I wonder how many people flooded him with requests for recalls? -Terry

    X650 build

    So finally got my build taken care of this weekend. I'll be posting some pics & video soon, but I had to jump on here first and just let everyone know how impressed I am with not only the DJI, but the Avroto motors. They run as smooth as can be and have some great lift! I haven't even begun to...

    Member Map

    These plugins work when they can identify your location based on your ip address. Sometimes that isn't possible, so in that case you may not show up on the map. I noticed it will also display either a flat map, or 3d, based on if your device can use Java or not. Personally, I like the flat map a...

    Motors spin on arming?

    I just installed my DJI and i notice that the motors start to spin as soon as it's armed. If I don't touch the sticks, it disarms and they stop, but in about 1 second instead of the 3 I think it's supposed to take. I don't have props on so it's hard to tell, but they don't seem to be spinning...

    XAircraft X650v Tech help please?

    According to XAircraft USA, the manufacturer has finally admitted fault and has recalled all of the first version 1212-s & AHRS units. They will be replacing them with the newer "P" & V2 versions. I would contact your dealer for more info about the exchange.

    Mikrokopter Hey Guys, Been a while!

    Good to see you on here, Eric. Sounds like you had a fun shoot. Did you have any photos of the solar farm that we can see? That thing sounds HUGE! I'm going to be up your way over the holidays if you want to catch up. I'm going to try and get a few shots around Philly while I have some time off.

    XAircraft FC1212-s and AHRS-S What is going on with them

    I would contact hobby wing directly. I just went to their site and they have the kits with the new P & v2 parts listed for sale right on the front page.

    XAircraft FC1212-s and AHRS-S What is going on with them

    Wow, I guess XAircraft finally decided that they needed to replace everyones FC. I've seen loads of videos online of 650's hooked up to the xa software and it shows the craft drifting in roll, but it's sitting flat on a table. After a matter of a few minutes, it was up to 20 degrees off. I don't...

    Futaba T8FG Super Setup

    There is only one way to use heli mode when using a flight controller like the DJI. You have to set your swash type up for 90degree 1 servo mixing. In reality, there shouldn't be a need to do this, but some radios offer different features in heli vs acro mode. I'm using a DX6i and I had to do...

    GoPro Lens

    I just came across this on amazon. I've got some credit with them and stumbled across this while searching for GoPro's. http://www.amazon.com/BlurFix-BlurFix-v1-GoPro-Flat-Lens/dp/B00635NCJ2/ref=sr_1_55?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1323281714&sr=1-55 Anyone given this a try yet? Seems like it...

    Let your mind wonder at the marvel of Tesla!!!

    This thread sparked (pun intended) some interest on my part, so I turned to google. It seems I share a birthday with my Tesla. I thought that was cool. ;-D

    Head Play or Fat Shark

    I've been using the older Fat Sharks for about a year now. I really like them, but the built in rx was pretty much crap. I just upgraded it and so far it seems to be working much better. I'll be doing some real distance testing this weekend though to find out for sure. The Fat Sharks fit...
