    Futaba R617FS Receiver Power

    If the esc's have inbuilt 5-6V bec's, motor 1's esc/bec will power the KK2 board which will power the receiver through the receiver leads. The power is wired internally across the KK2. Cool eh ;) Pete

    More bad "Drone" usage in the news

    Whether you agree with the purpose or not, they were flying without permission over private land and were filming again without permission. I see that as trespass... Pete

    Caught on camera, multirotor crashes into crowd at Great Bull Run

    Having dropped a 5Kg Trex-700E with a Canon dslr on a car sales rooftop (thanks Spektrum...) I assure you it is a horrible taste! I was over a road and it "dropped forward off the bubble"... what a noise on a corregated roof!!! Pete

    KK Flight Controller KK2 V1.6 firmware

    The power connection into the KK2 from the esc is only on motor 1. All the positive and negitive are commoned on the KK2 for motors 2-6. Connect the power from one of the motor 2-3 esc's and it will provide power to the servo. Pete

    Caught on camera, multirotor crashes into crowd at Great Bull Run

    Unfortunately many of the multi pre-built suppliers are selling the DJI systems to newbz because "it's so easy". A small story... I am helping a guy at the moment who approached DW here in NZ and (already a full-time photo and video pro) stated what he wanted to do (and carry - 7D etc). He...

    APC 12x6 thin Electric

    I use them on my HoverflyPro 2800g quad. Lots of power and the narrows fly through the 15-20mph turbulence much better than wide SF blades. I also use them on my DW VM6 hexa (3200g) but they had too much power so I chopped them to 10.5" !!! Pete

    2 devastating crashes in a month using Wookong

    Firstly - I'm a long-time modeller but I don't have a lot of DJI experience (my Naza V2 is still in the box). Were you relying on GPS performance for you flying? GPS performance is unreliable/crappy at best at the ends of the earth. Many published papers on the issue... Pete

    Naza-M V2 Fly away

    While not a "fly-away", a friend with a Droidworx Skyjib 6 Ti (supplied with a Naza v1 from DW) has an incredibly smooth and well balanced machine. NO vibes - he has balanced the motors, props and hubs. The balancing of the hubs showed it's value where the Canon 7D video went from great to...

    Sony RX100 has to be a good choice.

    Stacky and I got the RX100 when they first same out. He still loves his... mine "looks around corners" after a bad firmware upgrade on my FC flipped me above the road... An early test... Pete

    Current measurement by telemetry

    I too have been using what Stacky has. Individual cell monitored voltage readout (balance plug), total voltage as well as the real-time and total current draw are brilliant. If one cell is failing (as I have experienced twice) the monitor will beep even though the total voltage may be ok. The...

    Sweet. He is on the delivery list - a week or so. His SJ Lite Ti hexa had it's second uncommanded Naza V1 ATTI (non gps) uncontrolled oscillation + crash (no damage - very lucky) in perfect air, perfect 20' hover in 10 hours of testing... and the Naza is going in the bin. (for the record...

    Thanks boss :) as an aside... what is the HF Gimbal like to setup compared to the HFP settings? Similar (with the addition od another axis)? I may be about to assist a HFG and AV200 360 setup. Cheers
