    12kg AUW with 5s setup?

    Well if it means anything, I am flying a 9kg flat Octo with t-motor 2826 550kv motors with 14x6 props on 5s. It hovers at 50% throttle perfectly and I get about 10 minutes of flight with 16,000mah. I think it will fly at 12kg but with shorter flight times. Also, I would up the ESCs for some...

    Hoverfly Hoverfly X-8s continue to be the work horse

    My flat octa with HFP is still my go to ship. It just works every time I go I fly it. it is predictable, smooth and reliable. No special ESCs, no weird transitions between Manual and Atti and is the only controller that I am not waiting for an upgrade on the firmware for. GPS unfortunaly is...

    XAircraft SuperX Configurator Error

    I am having an issue connecting to the computer. I've never had this issue before (just the error issue) The flight controller seems to think it is connected via the USB cable, but the computer does not try show the Superx as a drive and does not dry to install the driver, etc. I have...

    Hoverfly how do I improve Altitude Hold

    I didn't think HF pro had AH gain settings any more. It's make sure it is covered with open cell foam.

    Hoverfly Hoverfly pro green board

    Make sure you flash 4.8 to the board. Then make sure to download the latest software client. You don;t update the frame type during the firmware upgrade process anymore. You do that in the setup software under the Pro Info tab.

    Y6 Builders thread

    I am also working on a Y6 that is folding. I think that is one of the beauties of the Y6 configuration. The 2814 770kv motors don't seem right for the job. My y6 with a gopro and brushless gimbal only flies about 10-12 minutes on 10,600mah. I get longer flight times carrying the same gimbal...

    Understanding Lithium Polymer batteries

    Here is some more useful info: This is one method used to figure out how long you can safely fly. I have not read this whole thread so might be repeating other info. sorry. When you charge your battery after a flight, be sure to read how many Mah where put back into your pack after charging...

    Dragonlink UHF - Issue with PPM to control a Brushless gimbal?

    I think it is a Tarot gimbal controller thing that I am not willing to fight. The Tarot gimbal works fine with standard 2.4 tx/rx. I can also get my Alexmos based gimbal to work fine through the DL signal. I am getting rid of my Tarot 2d and getting an alexmos based gimbal. There are more...

    The best CCTV camera for FPV?

    How are you guys mounting your PZ0513? I made a little aluminum bracket, but it is not perfect. Any suggestions? I am picking up another one but considering a cased version, just not psyched on the extra weight.

    Taranis X9D question

    Hey G ;p Not sure if you need a sensor or the voltage monitoring for telemetry, but I do know your Naza does not need to be bound. Just your radio and receiver get bound together. Then is will send the signal you input into your radio to the Naza. It will be more clear when you get it installed.

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    I use one. It is about the same as the others. I like that I can use the jeti box with it to tune without a computer. I run one for Pan on an AV200 and RSGS on tilt and roll, which seems to be working out best for me. I also have a Picloc (V1) for sale, a Hoverfly gimbal for sale and a RSGS...

    XAircraft SuperX

    Only 4 props will spin when you have basic version plugged into a Hex or Y6 build. I just installed and waiting on my Basic to Standard upgrade, and noticed this when I tried to arm the y6 I just installed it on. Ordered it 4 days ago from Xaicraft America and still don't have the code yet...

    T-Motor Props - WOW

    I just saw a graph on flexacopter site that compared T-motor carbon to Xoar props. The Xoar actually offered more thrust with less amp draw. That does not have much to do with smooth/quite operation, but I was surprised. I still run wood on mine and as mentioned above, can't seem to justify the...
