What props did you fly today?

That's 8.15 lbs which is just a touch over what I was flying today. I assume on your hex w/ avroto's 2814's.???? I ordered some 12x3.8 slow fly's for bottom props to try this weekend. The ones I tried today were 12x4.5. It felt like the motors were working alot harder and I didn't have camera...

Problem solved. Thanks Ben. You got me thinking when you said it sounded like it was trying to AH or auto level. I went back to the radio (First thing when turning on radio, I have 4 switches I check first to make sure they are down as well as throttle.) I checked them and they were down. I...

First thing I checked was alt hold & autolevel. No bullet connections. All soldered. Xy8 config. 10 minutes between changing 12 back to 11" props. No changes on futaba other than endpoints for gains. It has to be something I am overlooking, but I didn't change anything but props or...

My x8 had been flying very nicely. Today, all hell broke loose after trying some new props on the bottom. I fly it without camera (my light setup) and on futaba, set endpoints (gains) to high 20's to low 30's. When I fly it with camera (heavy setup) the futaba endpoints are up around 80...

Look at 3/27/13 post on first page of this thread.... His explanation and photo's are all you need to do. I just went a flew a quick battery in my back yard and turned on the throttle curve, and it works. I also verified it on the radio under servo. You can see the numbers on the marks...

Webheadfred gave me an explanation a while back on one of my post from my first flight on an x8 build. I've made the curve but haven''t had the guts to try it as I'm still learning... Here's the thread if you want to check it out. I followed what he said and it appeared to work...

With the 12x6 and 13x6.5 props, what are your batteries, total weight, and flying time. I'm flying x8 with avroto's and getting very short flying time with 11x4.7's and 5000 mAh 4s/ 30-40c batteries, weight about 12lbs. Going to try your 12-13 combo and see if that helps.....

Does the Martinez board run the same setup software as the Alexmos? I have an gimbal w/ alexmos setup from GotheliRC.com. I also received a alexmos board and imu from csgshop. I thought I was getting it from Florida, but it came from overseas. I've probably had it 2 weeks, but haven't...

I got my first one from gothelicr with controller and gimbal. 2nd Alexmos controller came from CSG Shop which says it's in Florida, but they shipped from somewhere over seas. Took a while to get here. Haven't had time to check it out, but it appears to be the same as I got from gothelrc.

Can't wait to hear how you like it. I've been watching his progress and it looks pretty good. I also have a BM Pocket cam on order (first on list at where I'm buying). However, there's no 60p anything mode on camera which may be problematic. Hopefully you are on the first list for the...

I'm learning (first RC flying machine) to fly my x8 with 8- 2814 avroto's and hoverfly pro. With gimbal & 2 - 5000 mAh 4s batteries, around 12 lbs. I have a alexmos w/ 2 4006 iPower motors on a gimble built for the NEX5n. I have a gh1, 2- gh2's, 1-gh3, & a 5D mkII. Experienced with...

Looks good. What's your mutlicopter and gimbal setup. What camera? Makes me envious. In another lifetime we used to visit Kauai for 10-21 days every year. Only been 2x last 8 years. Probably my favorite place to visit to get away and relax, sit on beach, hike, and just plain relax. Also...

OK, I played around somemore and ended up with something that fly's with the Gothelirc gimbal. I had to take off the strap connectors off the GH1 to get it to fit. I'd like to fly one of my hacked gh2's, but not real excited about taking off the strap connectors as I'm not sure they are going...

I did a quick setup with go pro and flew for 2-3 minutes. I did not get the vibrations. The vibrations are enough I can see it. When I had hold the gimbal and run around with it, I do not get the vibrations. I've switched from a flexible mount to a stiff aluminum mount that the gimbal is...

Anyone have any success with anything bigger than a NEX 5 on this gimbal? I'm about ready to give up trying to get a gh1 or gh2 to work. I can hand hold it and run around and it's great. I can put a go pro on it and it's ok. But in the air with gh1 or gh2, I get a lot of vibration. Copter...

I'd like to do some experimenting with props for x8 build. It's my first so I"m going through a few props. I'm flying 11x4.7 gemfan's right now and have gone through more CCW props than cw props while I figure out an issue with my yaw and gains that is not consistent. (plus I've had a couple...

Give em a call. They answer sometimes... 407-349-7850

Yes, watching the video you see part of his home. Also, his multicopter and gimbal. Looks pretty basic. I sure hope he is getting something from all the boards that are being sold. I think we owe him a ton of gratitude. I'm hoping he will set up a paypal account so people can send a...

Will the Alexmos board supply power to my receiver? Looking at my first board, I don't see any obvious connection for add on card for 3rd axis. 2nd board is on way from another source. Will have to wait. Can always sell one board if connections aren't there. In the scheme of things, to...
