doh ! at least you have an explaination, and its not a mystery crash

Didnt have it on a machine as such, purely on a camera mount, had to trick it into thinking it was on a quad, by combining all input signals into one plug to the reciever, but apart from that was straight forward (if it dosent see the other channels such as throttle and flight mode, it...

Ok guys, have the answer. Tried the test version of the software for CC that has built in camera stabilistion ( i tried for ages to do it with the custom mixes and got no-where fast) The test software works well, has the ability to control roll/pitch and Yaw of a mount, with RC inputs to...

seperate flight controller mounted to the yaw axis of the camermount, i have done for a customer using a copter control board

152 watts per KG of thrust - perfect, those motors are a good combo, and with the 30amps ESC's lots of headroom. the one issue i see is with such huge thrust and a all up weight of 1.5kg, your prop speed will be too slow for efective yaw control, you will find it gets better as weigh aproaches 3kg

12" props, would be slightly more efficient, but not sure how well those motors will spin them, essentially you need 130-170 watts per kg that you want to hover (depends on efficiencies of the system) so the motors will still be working the same. I have some 12 inch props here, if i get a...

@juz , gary is correct, NZ/AUS already had its last lot sent out, will update when more are available best way is to register on my shop, and you will get an email when more are on their way http://www.southerncross-uav.com

Hi Gunter The ESC needs to be rated for a higher current than the motor will draw at full load, because even at part throttle the individul current spikes are still very high The best of the cheper ESC's are any based on the Hobbywing chip, as they give decent performance, and handle a 400hz...

Yep :) they all made the effort, and thats the important part important

very cool, need to find a local powdercoater or a DIY kit

Btw - per orders closed, boards are enroute, stay tuned for the next lot !

:D you betcha !

motors out (blades angled in) so the prop wash dosent mix, and when in a fast sideways run, the tail dosent drop you wont be disapointed :)

Hey Bart, i have played with the mixer ALOT for multis, let me know how you get on, if i have time i will have a play and see if i can get a cc to do stand alone camera comp

if the temperature gets over 80 deg C you can start getting into an area where the magnets start weakening, which will cause more heating What current are you putting into the motors ? For Cheap motors I use the RCT 2839-14 750 kv (smaller motor) on 4S with 10 by 4.5 props, they get mildly...

ohh yea, its a well known bug, its the first thing i sugest when someone has trouble :)

first thing is to check the mix setting on the airframe tab, should be 50% for R/P/Y , theres a bug that sets this to 0

They are a very well thought out board, gyro and accelerometers, handle airplane, multirotor and helicopter stabilisation, connect to your PC with USb - go to the openpilot site to read a bit more http://www.openpilot.org
