Another dumb question. Esc wires to NAZA from Turnigy are black red and white. Connector is not knotch so which wire goes on notch side? Do I disconnect the center red wire on 7 or the 8, like I did on the HoverFly Pro. I don't see any mention of that. Googled over 30 minutes looking for...

Kloner. Thanks. Piece of mind on that one. Am I crazy, or is the rotation for x8 exact opposite of HoverFly. If so, Pain in butt cause I solder all 5x8 esc connections, so now I got a couple hours of un-soldering and re-soldering 16 connections to switch motor rotation..... I also assume...

Going to be setting up x8 tomorrow with Naza-M v2, first time Naza user. Using with Turnigy 40amp plush. Do some research tonight so I though I'd start a thread that I could use to ask questions as I tackle a new flight controller. 1st up........ From Naza manual " If you use 3rd party...

my MR is apart right now waiting another fc. Here is the HF's diagram which I followed. Only I have 8 motors... Notice the center wire from the esc's go to hoverfly fc only on the first esc. The others, have the center wire (power) clipped. Then, (not in diagram) all radio receiver...

My current config (via the HoverFly Manual) is my 4s battery directly feeds the Hoverfly Pro board. ESC/motor 1 has all 3 wires going to the HFP fc. Then 2-7 have the middle wire disconnected (as per HF manual). When you guys are talking about a separate bec powering the flight controller...

Haven't had much chance to play with it, but liking what I saw so far. Little sparce on controls, but great image. It would be a killer deal if it had 60 or 50p. I'll pass on the selling, but wife unit would like me to since the charge card bill will be coming in a few weeks. I'm guessing...

I have a home made voltage reducer on the copter now. When I fly with 1 battery, I use it to reduce the power to my brushless gimbal. Right now, I have the 4s powering the HFP. I have the power from the first ESC going to the HFP board and all other ESC power disconnected. Am I incorrect...

I have 7 of 8 red wire disconnected. I will certainly send in board to get fixed, but now am without anything to fly and summer is winding down. 3 more months till snow and cold weather, so want to get airborne ASAP. Since I'll probably build another something this year, I'm thinking of just...

New issue today, My hoverfly pro board is acting up after upgrading from 30amp to 40 amp esc's. Got one flight in and HF Pro board starts constant beeping when fired up. Able to arm with beeping continuing (with slight tonal problems) and then can fire up engines. Didn't try flying. After a...

Currently flying home designed xy8 (Rusty's Frames with 21.5mm arms) with avroto 2418-11's , (updating now to plush 40amp esc's), hoverfly pro flying with around 12 lbs using 2 - 5000 mah batts & 11 " props & sometime 12" props. On occasion get 8 mins flying time, but usually a little less...

Which pins do you want me to check. I'm assuming the 3 pins on the pitch, check 1 & 2 then 2 & 3? If so, is 2 the ground? My copter is apart getting new 30 amp ESC's which are soldered. Should be done tomorrow and back together so I can check the alexmos then, if that's not to late...

It's workable with the few degrees pictched down. I may leave it that way, but I should also figure out how to adjust the radio or controller to make it level. Just so I can say know how.

I've read that the Freefly one works with just about everything.... Little pricey, but might have to go that way if I don't get the others to work. I'll check the 720p setting on output.... Does that work with 60p ?

Just re-confirming before I pull the trigger. I'm assuming I'm going to get most of what I need to make the cables to hook all this together. I'm sure some soldering will be in order, but that's no issue. I will be flying gh2, gh3, & gopro 3 for video and occasional ap work. I may fly my 5d...

Anyone?????

Equipment ..... xy8 / avroto 2814-11, 4s 5000 mha, hoverfly pro, 11 or 12" props depending on camera, brushless gimbal, Futaba 8fgn with 1 unused channel... I'm ready to order my FPV equipment. Based my readings and conversations from last spring, this is what I have on my list to purchase. I...

Not with radio/MR right now, but took a minute to read Futaba manual, and guessing I just need to adjust neutral position on radio via linkage & sub trim... Will give that a try. Seems to me I did look at the servo menu and it was showing neutral was either a plus or minus 2.... Not sure why...

I finally hooked up my pitch control from radio receiver to Alexmos on channel 7. Tried it on lever and dial on right side. Works, except it thinks level is 2 clicks off center on dial or lever. When dial/level is at center (1 beep) camera is tilted down maybe 5 degrees or so. This is...

Next up??? IMU mount???

I have been looking into getting the 400 or 380kv x 8 motors with 6s batteries. I'm now flying Avroto's 2814-11's x8 and find 40c is pretty good for 12 lbs total flying weight. Would like to get into the mid teens flying time instead of the 8 min mark.... I'm currently flying turnigy's and...
