    Camera Gimbal jerks up and down

    I am using a Skyrover Mini Camera Gimbal that has two Hitec HS-5245MG servos plugged into the Naza F1 and F2 on my F550. It was working fine for a few weeks but now it jerks up and down repeatably. When on the ground in idle it is stable but as soon as I lift off it starts going up and down...

    Turbo Ace X88-J2

    No, much sturdier than the S800.

    Turbo Ace X88-J2

    Wow, Shaun, thanks for the info. I had this post out there for quite a while and you are the first to reply. You pretty much summed up what I felt about them. That's great they stepped up their game but I have since gone in another direction. I purchased an 800mm frame from Hexacrafter...

    hexacrafter hc-800

    Very nice Steve. Glad you are flying it every day and loved your tour of the flowers of California. I'm still at a standstill on my HC800 build. I was waiting to hear more about the new WKM (A2M) but decided the wait would be too long and potential bugs to be worked out. So I decided to order...

    Hexacrafter HC800 Build Stsrted

    I'll have to do some reading up on how to interpret the vibration graph on the app. Yes, it is night and day between my 550 and this 800, in build quality and looks and I have no doubt on how it will fly. I'm one of those who wants it all. I was almost ready to buy one of your compatriot's...

    Hexacrafter HC800 Build Stsrted

    Nothing new Vin, been really busy with other photography jobs and was waiting for everyone to get back from NAB to ask about WKM's new IMU. Patrick at Aerial Media Pros told me it will be a while and I would not really benefit anyway with my build, it's more for the "shaky" S800. I did balance...

    hexacrafter hc-800

    Don't you love it when things work as they are supposed to? I'm ordering the Gimbal but both Alex Mos and Martinez controllers are back ordered, which one are you using? Also, what brushless motors did you use?

    hexacrafter hc-800

    Sweet, so you let the cat out of the bag on whose gimbal that is, now Andrew is going to be flooded for requests. Remember, Andrew I get the next one. What controller Kloner? Can't wait to finish my 800 build, waiting for everyone to get back from NAB so I can ask about the WKM IMU upgrade...

    Hexacrafter HC800 Build Stsrted

    Andrew, Sorry for the bad modification I did, couldn't find the correct blade for my band saw and my bench grinder died. It ain't pretty but works. Thanks for all your help on this build. John

    Hexacrafter HC800 Build Stsrted

    I put the frame together last week of the carbon fiber frame made by Andrew at Hexacrafter and it is looking great Andrew has incorporated a brass bus bar instead of the standard power distribution board and it requires using a mini torch to get the solder flowing. Not pretty but gets the job...

    nex-5 battery question

    I have bought many knock offs and most do work. For $21 it's worth checking out. Plus it comes with 2 batteries and a charger.

    Brushless gimbal for NEX 5 and gopro

    Hi Musky, I'm sure you are being flooded with orders and questions but here we go anyway: Will it work with the Sony Nex& and like all others how much with the controllers for version 2? Thanks

    HexaCrafter HC-650

    After months of searching and researching I've decided on my move up from my DJI F550 and it will be the 800mm Hexacrafter. I just talked to Andrew for about a half hour and everyone is right, top notch guy and an excellent product from what I've seen here.

    Can this really be true?

    I have been flying a F550 first with a GoPro and now with a Nex 7 (Skyrover Gimbal). After about 3 months I feel I am ready to move to a bigger rig but there are so many options and a wide latitude of price range. I am strongly leaning toward an S800 and Zenmuse for the Nex7. I wonder how...
