Oh wait. I heard the Hoverfly BGC is the latest and greatest. Wait for it..... Wait for it..... LOL

Funny, I have had a similar experience with a few items I've purchased used. Formaldehyde or something. Always wondered if it was the components being in a sealed box for a week or the smell of their house..... Hah.

Viacopter just released V2. Should be good. If you are going for a large camera, there is a higher power one out as well. http://gothelirc.com/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=231&cat=Brushless+Gimbal+Controllers I use the viacopter board and probably going to order a v2 shorty.

servo works fine.

I am setting up a quad with Dragonlink UHF system. Besides the fact that my 8FG will only put out 8 channels PPM (I need 10 for my gimbal and video splitter), I am now having issues setting up the pitch control with a channel from my DL recevier. The gimbal freaks out when it is plugged in...

I have heard the simonk should work. Keep the setting on standard esc. I know the Avroto are rated 4s. I have run them in the past with 5s without issues and no heat, but usually only run them on 4S. I have also read about Axi 2814/22 are capable of running 5s and again, no issues at all. I...

I built a superx quad with Axi 2814 motors with 40 amp Plush esc and found 5s 5300mah and 11x4.7 graupners to work fairly well. It has plenty of power to lift my gopro brushless gimbal for a solid 10 minutes. A couple minutes longer than my 4s 5300mah. Also has FPV gear on board. Not sure about...

OOOH, I like the sound of that....

Get a 32t pulley for the motor. I'm using the 5108 120t motor and put a longer 5mm shaft in and was able to get a reducer to match the 5mm haft to the 1/4" hole of the 32t pulley. Works well. Or use a 6mm prop adapter like is on the tilt and get a 6mm to 1/4" reducer. Then just make a plate to...

Are you using the same reduction gears from the stock AV200 on all 3 axis? Can you offer some images o your setup? Is it difficult to balance the roll axis with the weight of the motor? Any photos of the set-up woul be great. It seems like it will be a fairly straight forward conversion. Nice...

It's been a while since I've looked at this, but I don't think you need to worry about the red + wire. Just run the yellow signal and black ground wire from the camera to the OSD in on the HFP. Then run the yellow wire and ground black wire from the OSD video out to the Vtx. The red wire should...

I'm in the US (CA). Thanks for the offer, but not going to try a Yagi or patch at first.

I am making the switch to UHF and 2.4ghz video. Let me know if you have a set you are looking to get rid of. Diversity Rx is preferred. Maybe some Bluebeam Ultra Antennas? Cash or trade, I have tons of extra motors, props, esc, flight controlers, etc... Thanks

I am comparing the current Photohigher RSGS issue with the old Quadpowered fiasco. A least the HFP is a solid platform. Even if the GPS is not working out for me.

Bart, my off centered quad, similar to xy, did not fly well and was my first attempt with SuperX. My basic quad is flying great though. As you may know, I've been flying HFP since day 1 and quadpowered before that. My main AV rigs still use HFP. Every time the GPS issue is discussed in detail, I...

I am selling my DJI wookong M flight controller. Includes GPS. (v1) Everything works great, I am sort of attached to my Hoverfly Pro and this one either gets put on an FPV machine or sent to someone who will use it for what it was meant for. GPS antenna has some scuffs, which does not effect...

I have had 2 ESC failures on an octa and landed without incident. I had to watch this without sound, so not sure what happened, but, I still don't understand why so many pilots fly hexa? Y6 is smooth and compact and can definatly handle a motor out. Especially on a big job. One ESC failure and...

@Rwilabee. This was just 1080 60p medium aspect. I don't like that sky blues are overly saturated.

I think all of us are experiencing a fairly solid firmware and I am feeling more comfortable with it every day. No major glitches so far, Knock on wood. I would not search for a reason to bash XA. Someone may have had a corrupt file, but sounds like it was fixed, or was just a possible...

You guys got a mast for the GPS included in your kit? I didn't. I am getting a bit better flight characteristics by moving the FC a bit lower. I also took out the RC gain wire and just using a laptop to tune. I also recalibrated. All of this is one Mod, so not sure what helped. Manual mode...
