    Gopro video recovery

    Try reformating your sd card. Of course, that will erase your file but at least it should work fine again afterward.

    this is safe! they should definlty outlaw multirotors

    My favorite was an old YouTube vid of a guy with one of these small two man heli's who duct taped a bottle opener onto one skid end and then proceeded to open 4 beer bottles sitting on the corners of a folding card table, between two rows of hangars without knocking over a single beer!

    Tested failsafe with a not so good result...

    No, the dance is compass calibration. I'm talking about xyz set up for the gps. To figure z setting for the naza you must figure the balance point when the multi is stood up vertically on its side. Have everything on the frame, battery, gimbal and camera, if you use one, and figure out exactly...

    Great use for a PHANTOM....but completely bonkers

    Don't think this guy will be owning his store for long. First time that Phantom kisses someone they will own his business. Stupid moron's. Maxweltub, I'm with you, I hate seeing stupid frackin crap like this.

    Tested failsafe with a not so good result...

    GPS calibration, especially z-axis. Jumping on the ground is an indication, thinks it hasn't come close to the ground yet. Z-axis is critical. Make sure you know how to bail out of failsafe, ( flip off failsafe, then toggle mode switch out of gps and back into it ).

    Arris CM2000 Brushless gimble Test

    Hope you have better luck than I did with mine. First half dozen flights were impressive, then tilt went to hell, oscillations. Worked 2 weeks on it getting it all dialed back, only to have it happen again. Did lots of research. Found out it's an old first version Martinez board with real old...

    DJI releases Zenmuse H3-2D

    Well, I've had one for a few weeks now. First few flights just blew my doors off, also. But now I have an issue that is just driving me nuts! What I got is on the pitch, I'm getting motor oscillations. I've been experimenting with settings, but it's like the motor doesn't have the power to...

    DJI releases Zenmuse H3-2D

    I really suspect the price will be fixed, much like the other gimbal. However, if it truly is plug and play and you don't have to jump thru all these damn hoops like AM boards, then the price, to me anyway, seems doable. I just get this 'feeling' that much like the other gimbal, if you need...

    World’s first manned flight with an electric multicopter

    If they are going to fly with DJI I sure hope they have plenty of battery capacity. Hitting rth could mean a hell of a long flight back to China!

    Pretty nice, Holco! Made me laugh at the second to last shot. It looked like you were driving the car remotely.

    Hard test of Zenmuse 3H 2D

    I don't know,,,, I'll admit it is impressive! However, is it really that much better than the Arris cm-2000 I bought for $250? From what I understand this thing is going to go for around $1k? http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=oNWCxO9GKs4 This was done in wind around 16...

    Vulcan Mantis test flights 2 + 3

    I have to admit, it's an odd looking duck. However, as far as los flying goes, it's damn near impossible to loose orientation with it. Then there is the WKM. Owning one myself, I must say, as long as you take the time to understand the system and take the time to build a proper model, the WKM is...

    Arris CM2000 mounting question

    To have what configured? The gimbal comes assembled, balanced for gp3, set up and tested. Just mount it, plug it in and go fly.
