    Gas powered multi, conceptual question

    If you took a bunch of small gas engines, say cox .049's or equivalent and you mechanically linked them up to servos that were controlled by the esc ports of the FC, would you get any desirable results? I guess it would depend on how the esc ports controlled the servo but assuming it moved one...

    need some FPV assistance.

    This is my 2nd time around buying FPV gear. I would consider myself an accomplished solderer and relatively meticulous. With that said I recently purchased an ImmersionRC diversity Rx in 5.8Ghz. I also got an Iftron Stinger Pro 250mw 5.8 tx. I was told by a few people there is no issue with...

    Need help with FPV antenna cable type.

    I just got a patch antenna and it is male rp-sma, I think. Wondering where you guys get these female to female cables to attach the male to male ends from the patch to the receiver. Readymaderc has male to female but that doesnt fit the bill. I'm thinking radio Shack might have a converter...

    DJI F450 "batwing" camera bracket

    It seems the best way to get steady video from the Gopro is by using 720 60p. The problem is that the camera has only one field of view option at 170 deg. There really isnt anywhere on the F450 to stick the camera without seeing props or legs. So I have created the "BatWing." The battery...

    Flying people in NYC

    Does this guy have a tethered octo or is that a really long antenna? Looks like he is wired to me. http://biertijd.com/mediaplayer/?itemid=32880

    F450 carbon fiber landing gear extensions

    F450/F550 landing gear extensions and batwing camera mount. I made these for my F450 so the gopro would clear the ground. They are obviously strong as hell because the quad came barreling into the ground after losing signal and didnt break anything but a prop. I have a few people on here who...

    My first DJI Naza experience.

    I was so happy to find that the USB was actually at fault. but only after 3-5 times pluggin into the pc the USB port literally snapped out of the PMU/USB module. The soldering joints failed under the lightest pressure. I like to think I am a pretty tactile person. So i take it to the park...

    Any advantages of using heli mode as to acro mode?

    Most manufacturers tell us to use Acro mode on our radios but some of the vendors have recommended using heli mode. Most of are using heli radios, so what harm could come from using heli mode if there arent any mixers/collective pitch settings? what I am wondering is if it enables more...

    Anyone heard from Robert at DJI USA?

    Since receiving my faulty Naza I have not been able to get ahold of him via phone or email. Very frustrating. This whole experience feels VERY much like dealing with Xaircraft USA. Just message machines and no replies. Maybe Robert works for NASA too.

    Do your motors do this?

    Since i have had my Avrotos i have made an observation that perplexes me. When the unit is cold nor had power applied in the last hour or so the motors feel free. If you flick a prop they turn somewhat normally/freely. BUT, when I have had a power applied to them for even 30 seconds they...

    Cant get USB to recognize DJI hardware

    I am now using my 3rd PC. First one destroyed from anger! Second one didnt work and returned it to a friend. Now I am on my work PC which is only there to run the CNC router. Downloaded both 32/64 bit drivers. Instructions say to connect and power up MC and it should recognize new...

    Confirming windows 7 works with the DJI software.

    As I come out of my PC anger management I realize I can't give up so easily. As I still refuse to buy a PC, I have found a loop hole in the plan. I am going to buy my mom a macbook and take her 3 year old Dell laptop for specific use on the heli. But it does have windows 7 on it and I want to...

    Anyone have issues with DJI USB errors?

    I feel like I am going through the Xaircraft problems all over again! I have tried 2 different PC's now and neither of them seem to recognize the USB. It says, found new USB hardware but then it says something is not right and may work properly. So far I have seen no activity on the...

    Tx rates for DJI setup question

    On my JR 9503 I have 3 flight modes that are controlled by 1 switch. These all have varying rates for different conditions. But I want to verify that when using the DJI WKM or NAza that you are supposed to leave everything at 100% with no expos or throttle curves. So all of this will be...
