    A2 Firmware Updates Not Working

    Over and over I run the firmware updates in the A2 Assistant software and they fail OR appear to fail. Usually I get an error and it says to try power cycle and try again but it just never works when I do. Very frustrating! Particularly so when I have personally had my last A2 take down my...

    S1000 Prop Angle...What...???

    Just putting together my S1000 and I notice that all the arms with CW props have props that are angled about 3.5 degrees CW and the CCW prop arms have props angled 3.5 degrees CCW. This is seen when viewing side on. I am not talking about the 7.5 degree angle that all the arms have out from...

    F450 Lousy Flight Times

    I picked up a used F450 and upgraded it to Nava V2 and 4S 3700 mAH lipos. The LED never flashes yellow but instead goes straight to red flashing after about 3.5 minutes of not too aggressive flying. At that point I check and they are usually around 63%. I can fly for another 3 minutes or so...

    S1000 Problems??

    I have an S1000 on back order but I am getting frustrated waiting for it. My dealer says there have been some little problems with the first run and they are waiting to fix those. Is there any truth to this or...??? TC

    F450 ESC Power Point Broken

    Had a little oopsy with my F450 running the my new iPad ground station the other day. It kind of went crazy. Luckily it missed the new window but it did break an arm and now I see that the + ESC power point is broken off the bottom board for one motor. There is no gold colored metal at all...

    I Need More Flight TIme - How???

    I have a new Carboncore Hex (specs in sig) but in this cold (-5 to -10C) I am only getting around 2.5 minutes with camera and gimbal before first level voltage protection LEDs kick in. Very frustrating as I hope to get far more flight time. I am going to add telemetry to monitor on board power...

    Motor, Flight Control and/or Z15 Weirdness

    I have seen this a couple of times now where all my motors appear to "stutter" and my Hex rocks violently back and forth for a few seconds while my Z15 5D gimbal is on (never without). The first time I noticed this was when I was yawing one way (with Hex) and then went the other way immediatly...

    DJI Video Downlink Wired Backwards

    Not sure if it is just my unit like this but he DJI video downlink is wired in such a way that red is negative and black positive. A little counter intuitive. Thought folks might want to know.

    Motor, ESC Temprature

    Doing my first test flights of my Carboncore H6 with Z15-5D Gimbal and 5D MKIII (24mm lens). Flight tests without gimbal and camera have gone great. Had about 20 so far. Also flew with lead weight and ran all the numbers in eCalc and all seemed good (...

    Z15 - 5D Link Issue

    So I have my Z15-5D linked and receiving basic control from my second TX (Futaba T8FG). I am using the Futaba R6208SB RX via Sbus. Roll, Tilt, Pan and Mode are all successfully mapped and working correctly but I just can't seem to get the Shut and Aux 1-3 mapped. Shut (values 606-969) and Aux...

    A2 CanBus As AUX Power Supply For Receiver??

    Anyone know if I can use the A2 CanBus to get power for my Futaba RX? When I meter the two outermost pins I get 6VDC. Abviously the CanBus is supplying the FC and other items with their power already. Is this wise?

    A2 IOC Weirdness

    Still testing my new build and all has been flawless until this afternoon. I have tried a bunch of fail safe return to homes and done a bit of flying in IOC mode too. Today I was playing around with IOC which I have to say I am not too familiar with. I was flying in a straight line away from...

    A2 & Z15-5D Gimbal

    A little confused regarding hooking up my Z15-5D to my A2. Currently I am using the A2 onboard RX for my flight tests and all is well. Eventually I intend to move gimbal control to a separate TX but for now I just want to get it up and running with basic functionality with one TX. Gimbal...

    A Million Questions

    I have completed my first build and all is well but I just feel like there are so many gaps in my knowledge and I don't want to discover any of them the really hard way (crash). This is what I built: -CarbonCore H6 950mm -DJI A2 Flight Controller -Maytech Opto ESC 60amp - No BEC, Simon K...

    A2 Test Flight Problems

    So this is my very first build and it is a 950 Carboncore H6 with A2 flight controller, 2 X 6C batteries and Futaba T14SG TX. I have it all together, balanced and started testing today. Motors are all spinning correctly, props mounted right and mixer correct for my setup. The bench test went...

    Z15 and Sony Nex6??

    I see that this question has been asked before but not actually answered by anyone. Does the Z15 Gimbal work with the Sony Nex6? My understanding is that the Nex6, though it has less resolution than the Nex7, is actually a newer model with a few updated features. I feel this would be a great...
