    Triple Red Flash Insanity

    Any video link active onboard? Since compass calib works it would indicate that the gps unit is present on the can-bus. How long time in open terrain did you wait for a fix? First time will take longer due to cold start.

    Triple Red Flash Insanity

    Strange. Does it respond normally when you perform compass calibration? There is no video TX running on the ship, is it? (1.2 GHz harmonics can block gps effectively)

    5.14a Update

    Poi?? I did three flights with 5.14a on a octocopter+Mega radius camera mount. AUW 8kg I was test-flying new fw as well as the camera mount stabilization, so I may have been distracted by the both tasks at hand. Anyhow. RTH works good, both in failsafe and commanded. I can confirm that after...

    Traditional RX octo 5.12a

    Eh well, can't comment on the balls but it is correct that there has not been any official Dji statement about old MC being guaranteed without risk on non dji esc. I reckoned better safe than sorry, thats why I am goin to replace it. And obviously dji agrees (and that is +1 for Dji). My private...

    Panasonic GH2 and Sony CX730 comparison

    @krleas Are you using SteadyShot Standard or Active? I have a CX740VE about to enter service on my octa+Mega Radius camera mount.

    Enabling IOC (Intelligent Orientation Control)

    I dont have Naza but have you made sure that the control input (X2 / X3) is not currently assigned to gain tuning or so? In that case you have to de-select that first to make IOC available.

    Traditional RX octo 5.12a

    Three more flights today on 5.12a. All ok. This time I tested RTH (altitude), Home Lock and POI. All this worked as supposed to.

    DJI come out top on after sales

    That is impressing and very good cred for Dji. By the way, are there any conclusions after the incident investigation that you care to share here?

    Traditional RX octo 5.12a

    Yep. Today I made my first three flights on 5.12a. It worked allright. As I anticipated need for gain re-tuning I set it up with variable gain on rate and attitude. Preliminary tuning ended with slightly less rate gain and slightly more on attitude. It flew ok though frequent two white flash...

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    Interesting! Are yiu saying you calibrated the pl acc. 40 deg offset? And did you do that to compensate for roll gimbal freak-out at 90 deg (straight down) ? Pl mounted on-axis.

    CCW Motors getting hot

    I sense some frustration here :banghead: Understandable! Frankly, my octa has been on ground since the 5.12 release, but mostly due to lack of time. Though very soon I will put more traction into the project. Exactly what type of prop are you using now? Measured the rpm? Tip- check each motor...

    CCW Motors getting hot

    Hi aviator. One would suspect a misaligned arm/ motor mount. I suspect my octa suffers from same problem. I think this is something we should bring to the attention of the designer :cool: Considering we use the similar frame...
