Elliott: how much weight do you have extra? I have the battery 400grams and gopro and mount 300 grams, so stock F450 + 700 grams. Too much?

I have this all set up now and it hovers in atti at 50% throttle! Anyone else have this combo that can give me some tips..... 1. What is a good set up for the gains. Ive looked at the google docs spreadsheet but its not helpful when someone says atti gains at 70 and another at 160! Im getting...

More money to be spent then :D

Thanks, It was calibrated with trim in the centre (no trim), in the assisant when the stick is at 50% it shows as 50%.

Hey guys, My F450 is up and running with 10 inch graupners. I am running a go pro + mount which comes to 300 grams. When running a 3S 3350mah lipo in atti mode the quad hovers at about 60% throttle not 50%. At 50% it descends. Because of this is does not seem to lock attitude very easily...

Cheers Ed, do you know what size locking nut I will need?

thanks for that, do they have the square hole like the dji props to fit on the motors or will they be round and be held down solely by the prop nut?

I dont like the sound of the DJI props randomly breaking. Looks like I might buy some 10" graupners. Does anyone know the specific model number I need and if you can buy these in the UK? Also do they fit on the DJI motors. I dont want to have to drill them out or anything. Also are nylon...

so when you switched transmitter off did the throttle output of the reciever go to 0 resulting in intelligent cut off kicking in and keeping the naza at 10% throttle?

Interesting Ed... return to home I guess you are talking about the wookong then? I have just the naza. Ive decided not to set up a failsafe switch on my tx as my reciever only has failsafe on the throttle channel. I will never be switching to failsafe manually on the transmitter so I dont need...

is there any reason to set the failsafe throttle to 50%? wouldnt that just give the possibility of a flyaway? also I never did understand what the reason is for failsafe mode, I cant imagine a situation where you would switch to failsafe mode, as you no longer have control of the heli.

Probably a noob question that I couldnt find the answer for using the search: Does it matter what gauge wire is used for the connection to battery connector pads on the power board? Would 14 AWG be OK? The DJI ESCs are 16 AWG and the VU is 20 AWG. I just want to make sure I am not making any...

Thanks for the further info Ed, Keith, thanks that thread also helps, I found a few bits of info but wanted someone with experience to help me choose what is the right frame for my needs and Ed has helped me nicely there :) Looking forward to upgrading to the F450 now after almost crashing my...

Thanks Ed, very helpful. Next question what sort of flight times could get I get with a 300g payload (not including battery) on the F450? Which battery size would be more suited?

Hi everyone, I am looking for a bit of advice of which DJI kit would suit me best. I currently fly a Gaui 330x with a camera mount / go pro, its great but its quite tricky to get good video (Random twitches here and there if trying to fly in a straight line etc + GU-344 is quite a dated...
