    This is trivial but the attitude indicator doesn't function.

    What Props do we need ? 14 x 4 light weight Carbon ?

    Reminds me of the "Q-tip" story of how they started from an accident. Gear up landing but the pilot caught it and added power to "go-around" only to find that his climb rate was higher than usual. After a proper landing, he found he had hit his props on the runway and bent the tips over. The...

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    I have duplicated Seattles find, but you have to be fast. By that, I mean have the mouse cursor repositioned over the "continous updates" button in Toolz and use the TAB on the keyboard to select the "continue" button. Press the ENTER key on the keyboard and immediately left click the mouse to...

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    During my trouble shooting, I reloaded V.055 and connected to C055 Toolz. It worked fine and everything populated as usual with the old fw and new toolz. I didn't have to mess with anything. Then I loaded v.C005 and I am able to duplicate seattle helo's results....exactly. My picloc pro was...

    Coming soon Zenmuse gimbal

    If that is correct, then it's a great deal considering stepper motor use. This thing reminds me of the Action Arm from Spacecam.

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    The steppers we use start at $1500 each... Used gyros start at $5000, $15000 new...each George is right on his target for RC Model control loops. It's gonna cost big time to step into an industrial control loop. The performance that people are obtaining with what is available now, is pretty...

    What power plant combo for the Skyjib 8?

    I agree that the environment is crucial but but some folks don't have a clue where the next shoot may be. We should be able to adapt our systems for the occasion and client needs. After some well earned experiences, you'll have a sense of what may be needed for future shoots. Cold WX, hot WX...

    What power plant combo for the Skyjib 8?

    Yup, I was one of the first orders. Last word was that they were to ship between the 15 and end of January. No updates since that has passed. Everything else has arrived.

    What power plant combo for the Skyjib 8?

    Hey guys I'm still waiting for the AEROdrive8 to ship..... My SJ8 setup and plans: (8)15-20 Plettys APC 14" props until I hear some more feedback and hopefully someone will make a set of CF 14" and 15" props soon with the heavy lifters in mind. I wouldn't mind the price...too much. AEROdrive 8...

    And my knees go weak again - the new Droidworx airframe

    Actually, it was ordered from Geoff. I received an email from him this morning with confirmation and a reasonable explanation with a resolve.

    And my knees go weak again - the new Droidworx airframe

    Yeah, I would've gone that route had I had time. Doesn't matter though as I still have no confirmation that an SJ8 has been shipped. Maybe I should have chosen the CS8 instead. At least I'd have a flying solution right now. Customers are already flying those... If I ordered a CS8 today, I bet...

    And my knees go weak again - the new Droidworx airframe

    Skyjib is on stock at distributors for 1 month. Wow, I could have flown it with a different power board for this shoot. Everything else was here in time to be built and test flown. Bummer...

    And my knees go weak again - the new Droidworx airframe

    Yes, I paid for the SkyJib8 on Sept. 14 and the Aerodrive 8 on Oct. 5. It's a shame as I have a job with Tom Hanks in North Florida on the 15th of January thru the 28th. The DP owns a custom 100 pound payload electric heli set up for the RED 3D system and is hoping to use the SJ8 as well for...

    And my knees go weak again - the new Droidworx airframe

    I'm still waiting for my airframe and AeroDrive 8. I'm pretty sure that I was one of the first orders for both. Has anyone else received either of these...aside from the testers?

    And my knees go weak again - the new Droidworx airframe

    Hey guys, Dirk is correct... That is a tough container! The method of packing them in the box had a lot to do with them surviving the shippers olympics too. Good job Dirk and thanks for the extra care in packing, it obviously was worth it. I'm also very glad to see the shorter prop shaft as...

    And my knees go weak again - the new Droidworx airframe

    I want to open it but only after I hear from Dirk. This way, there's no dispute. I was not home when it was delivered.
