    Caught on camera, multirotor crashes into crowd at Great Bull Run

    After reading through the update link, this actually is starting to make some sense, common sense is also a big part of what we do and looking at the video there are many things where many of us would have done differently, including me, I would not want any part of such an event. With that...

    Caught on camera, multirotor crashes into crowd at Great Bull Run

    ya I am not a fan of the Nanotechs, It looks like a ESC or something controlling that area copter, I did notice some of the power leads to the esc seem to be pretty long, and the copter itself is fairly heavy, I believe the motors are Tiger 3515's, looking at the result I would put my bet on a...

    Tarot IronMan 1000

    Tarot 1000 with Tarot Gimbal in windy conditions, raw out of the camera vid. There is nothing special about the vid, but if you watch the leaves on the trees it will give you a good indication of how windy it is and how well it worked out.

    octo heavy lift, some odd flying things happening

    CdA D thanks and I am on the verge of reloading the firmware, just to see, and at that point I would re do the gains, As of my ESC Maytach opti 45amp, with 4014 motors, they are landing pretty much cool to touch, maybe on the edge of warm, but more to the cool side. All are the same in temp...

    octo heavy lift, some odd flying things happening

    CdA D the rotation happen at not given time, just every once in a while, so if I fly it for ten minutes then it may not happen but sometime during the next fight it may happen twice. I can not pin it down to when, its just off the whim, you will hear one of the sets of motors change for...

    octo heavy lift, some odd flying things happening

    Just wondering if anyone have had any of the follow flight characteristics take place during flight. If so what did they find as the fix. I have a heavy Oct 1000mm with 4014 motors, I am still trying to figure out the gains, but during flight every once in a while one of two things may take...

    WKM gain settings on cinestar 8

    I have an ironman 1000 octo with tiger 4014 330kv, 45amp maytech opti esc's, 14inch graupners, with a gimbal and a 1500g battery. I can tell you my gains are around 180 - 190 on the pitch and role, on the vertical gain I am running right at 160, and on the yawl I am up at 190. Over all it is...

    S800 Major Crash - The spin of death

    junanata When it comes to flying the copter when a motor goes out, I feel that its more about having a balanced copter over the weight, if you look at the vid when they did load the s800, notice that the weight they adding is on the legs equally centered, and more importantly the battery, is...

    WARNING - Firmware 5.24

    Dave I believe DJI still has some GPS issues, and that is possibly why they added the going into att mode when gps losses a differential ability (3D mode). I actually think when the GPS unit is on the verge of Diff mode, in certain situations, the mysterious flip of death may come into...

    F550 Prop Size Recommendation?

    Depending on the motors I highly suggest extending the arms to a 600ish and adding 11 inch props, I found mine flew best in those conditions, I had for about a year. Nice copter.

    S800 Major Crash - The spin of death

    if you can keep up on the post I would like to see where they keep it going, To me it looks like you may have lost a motor or an ESC, especially seeing it fall like that. I am not convinced, even though they say the software can configure hexa to fly with a missing motor. unless you shut down...

    Looking for higher quality camera

    For vid, some of the Sony Handy cams with the B.O.S.S. system works pretty well and it only comes in around 650g. stills the RX 100 for the weight/quality ratio, I feel you can not beat the results, however it is not the most RC aerial friendly camera, no infrared trigger, and its HDMI out...

    DJI Released New Firmware 5.24 for WKM

    yep I can not agree more, to many light signals, I do not need to know when the copter is with in 8m of it's home point, its actually starting to freak me out. I am also in the closet of trust, I open the door to look, but I want to close it from fright. I did the up grade, other then the...
