Much like the word "Assault Weapon" being applied to scary looking rifles, or "E-cig" being applied to all vaping devices, Multi-rotor and UAV are now synonymous with "Drone". At this point it is a waste of time trying to fight it. Our energy needs to focus on fighting against new anti-RC...

Will adding the word drone to a signature work?

Might try re-calibrating your ESCs one at a time and see if the motor will spin up then like Motopreserve mentioned in post 2.

And when you try to arm it while connected to MP, does it say armed on the screen?

What ESCs are you using?

Doesn't look like either the Nex-5 or Nex-7 will output to a Connex without including an overlay in the image (camera controls, etc). Any other lightweight contenders other than GH3 & 4?

Have you removed props and tried motor spin test in mission planner. Have you verified in mp that you are in stabilize mode when arming? Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

If you fly more than one model with your transmitter, make sure you have it set to your s500 and not something else.

Unplug the gimbal and verify the problem still exists without it plugged in.

I always read comments like that on the net from folks across the pond. Funny how their attitude changes when they visit me and I slide one of my AKs into their hands. Their eyes always light up like it's Christmas. Just sayin.....................;) We are definitely on our way there, no...

Mark the motor that was attached to the fizzy ESC and keep an eye on it for sure.

For some reason with the name of MadMonkey and being from Texas, I kinda had a weird feeling you owned a Saiga.

Don't get me wrong, I still think of ways to bring one down. Personally I think buck would be more effective.:cool:

To be honest, this time last year....I was one of them.......

50 yards is 150 feet if we are talking altitude directly overhead though. That's a pretty good distance away right?

How big of a download is it? Since there aren't any foreseeable bugs with Mission Planner, I may download it on my laptop as well.

I still have a couple boxes running on XP

Nothing wrong with being focused on budget. I honestly don't know what to focus on right now. In the end I want to end up with something flyable that I can add to my fleet. It seems the folks flying a nex (and gimbal) are doing it with noticeably smaller birds than with a GH4. That's what put...

Great links, thank you.
