    octo heavy lift, some odd flying things happening

    is it a flat octo or a X8? Have you checked all motors to be perfectly horizontal? If it is a X8 did you mix the props at top and bottom? best regards Ferdinand

    foldable X8 with 18" props

    The first build was with Tigers 340KV 130gr and 18" props, which is now in use on a different (non-foldable) X8 with Zenmuse and gives 25min flighttime there (6,5kg AUW). It is quite a surprise to me, that this combination with the 14" Graupners is similar in efficiency (7,5kg AUW 2kg payload...

    foldable X8 with 18" props

    I have quite a number of screws, so I just took some that fit. But it should be no problem to shorten them via a Dremel, or better this , possibly you also could take a washer. best regards Ferdinand

    Hello Charl, The same props at top and bottom I am using because I think that this performs best. 740 KV is a bit high, so I am afraid, the maximal possible size will be 12" e.g Graupner 12x6. The flighttime with 4S16000mAh and 6kg will be around 14min. best regards Ferdinand

    Heading to Shenzhen. Any suggestions where to shop for multi Rotor parts?

    Don´t waste your time in China with hunting for multirotor-shops, you will have to bring them home (declare customs) that you also can do anytime at home via internet. There is a lot more to see/experience/do/... in China (in any area) in your spare time. best regards Ferdinand

    S800 and zenmuse change between one and two operators

    I use the 4-channel (tilt, roll, yaw, shutter). If you want to share more channels you can take two of them of the 8-channel variant. best regards Ferdinand

    S800 and zenmuse change between one and two operators

    I would take advantage of a HK "buddy-box" if the cam-op TX is off you have control, of the cam-op TX is on, he has control on the Zenmuse: best regards Ferdinand

    Coaxial X8 Octocopter

    "heavy" is relative, some people call 500gr payload heavy, others 2kg, others state that heavy lifting starts at 10kg payload. So what payload you plan to lift? best regards Ferdinand

    High altitude F550 hexacopter crash after motors stop. Anyone know why?

    Hard to imagine, that the motors stopped since you could hold the leveled position, also the "impact" was somehow slowed down compared to a free fall. If (and only then) the motors stopped, I can only imagine, that the propellers started to rotate in the other direction and this was some sort...

    Aerial Video Service Rate Sheet

    Flying a copter (with a cam) is fun, but if you have to fly a copter the situation changes immediately. It is fun to recognize, that this moment (location, weather, light, event, ...) could be a great scene to shoot with your multi. If you are a pro, you have to create the moment. When multi +...
