    If the S800 is within your price range I would seriously consider it for what you want: It has a stock setup so no need to experiment with or justify any varying hardware or configuration. Documented build so more easily passed certification. Proven track record - although there have been...

    Brushless Gimbals and the 550 what do you recommend.

    Rainman, I had that same problem to start but then realised it was the cables causing the problem so taped them to the gimbal arms and no more problems... However, I too would like a Zenmuse H3-2D. As I also have a WKM and iOSD already it would just be plug and play. If the AeroxCraft one...

    Great Trappy vs FAA attorney interview

    I still can't see how you can even contemplate a defence Team Black Sheep. If you or I fly near or over people not under our direct control and without their express consent you are, potentially, endangering their and other's safety. In the city flights it is clear that the public has been...

    Great Trappy vs FAA attorney interview

    Bartman, again the voice of reason and reality. It is about time Trappy and his 'Team Black Sheep' were prosecuted. They flout safety and endanger the public, yet I see people here standing up for them? They are damaging our sport by their stupidity and reckless flying yet some here...

    GoPro wireless option linked to NAZA flyaways

    I know this would cost us all but there is a case to take the flight control frequency well away from the publicly available 2.4Ghz spectrum completely. The difficulty is that the airwaves are so cluttered where would it go and if there is an option to move could every country be persuaded to...

    Brushless Gimbals and the 550 what do you recommend.

    I think that there are so many on the market now the choice is daunting. Also the prices are beginning to fall now that there are so many. I use the Aeroxcraft brushless gimbal - http://www.aeroxcraft.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=4_25&products_id=41 It is rock solid and does...

    GoPro wireless option linked to NAZA flyaways

    The Gopro uses standard 2.4GHz WiFi (IEEE 802.11n) and I use a 2.4GHz RC TX for flight control so would never ever consider using both during flight. Although the different technology are restricted to specific spectrum within the 2.4GHz band the accuracy and stability of each unit can not be...

    Bartman, You are such an old school perfectionist..... Servo's and self built to your own exacting specification; how you.... :black_eyed: I bow to your superior knowledge, skills, and abilities...... Seriously, I like the idea of the machine and the Octi X with 3 bladed props is a little...

    XAircraft SuperX newbie question

    Glad to hear you are going for the Pro. I would like a second Pro set-up like yours so I can compare the WKM and SuperX directly but cost is against me. There are now loads of gimbals designed just for the GoPro 3 HD now. I use the AerXcraft one and although some initial teething issues to...

    XAircraft SuperX newbie question

    If you haven't already ordered your x650 you need to seriously consider the pro rather than the za or value. The pro looks the same but is so much better and capable of nearly 20 mins flight with twice the load of the value. They come from the same stable, look similar but are worlds apart..

    XAircraft SuperX newbie question

    I just wonder if the SuperX puck is more sensitive to GPS than the WKM one. The size suggests it may have more inside? I will carry on with mine on top at the back and see if others get on with the WKM puck. Not having a SuperX I can't experiment with that. Just now the WKM keeps dropping...

    Replace gopro3 lens to reduce fisheye distortion or can video-editing software do it?

    You can pay anything you like but a lot depends what you expect from your rig and really want to do with it. Once bought and certified that is what you are stuck with until you spend more and get another certification on a new rig. You will have to weigh up the costs and potential of each...

    XAircraft SuperX newbie question

    There's your answer then. As long as you can fit it in there then the cover being made from plastic should cause no problem.... Try it and report back. If it establishes clean GPS satellite signals then 'jobs a good un..'. let us know and we could all protect our pucks likewise.

    XAircraft SuperX newbie question

    I have the pro version and simply mount it where they suggest and never had a problem. I have seen the disc mounted with no post in the same position which would be a lot saver for the puck in an accident but I keep mine on a 4" post at the rear. However, if the material used allows the signal...

    If Rob said it is OK and he has altered the input voltage to match your Lipos then go for it.

    I can second that as I have two they work right out of the box now. My first one was one of the very first and had a lot of difficulty setting it up and upgrading the firmware but the second one arrived 2 months later all done and haven't had to get under the bonnet to do anything - Plug and...
