Make sure you have your camera stabilization all figured out. From what I have heard, you can not use the WKM camera stabilization when in an OCto config. Just what I heard, I could be wrong.

Thanks Gunter, and Yes, Its some of my recent work.

Hello Everyone, I would like to take a moment to introduce ourselves to the forum. After spending quite a while struggling with customer service in the Multi rotor industry. I decided to start our own company, focusing and specializing in RTF Copters that are ready for the film industry. As...

Hey Guys, here is a quick clip with a few sweet shots, Enjoy http://vimeo.com/35216137 Cameras Used were Canon 7D and Sony AF100. One of the Copters used was one of my Custom AD8 Octo's shown here.

You can use 4S. That is the exact set up I use with 13" props. you wont get any errors on Ecalc If you drop the Prop size down to 12" x 5

what happened when you added 13 as prop diameter and 6.5 as pitch?

Try changing it to 4S and not 3. See if that helps and you have to put in a prop Diameter/pitch

I have built quite a few of these copters Greg, and I can say that it takes me quite a bit of time. I guess the amount of time it takes someone else, all comes down to the builder and how well it was built. If I wanted to rush through a build (which I never would), I gues it could be done it...

Yes they have been tested. I have them on all my builds, and all my clients builds. They work just as they should and have no adverse dampening properties. I sent a set to quadrocopter for them to test out. After reviewing and testing them out, They ordered 100 pieces from me. Im not sure if you...

Hey guys, thought I would post these up for anyone interested. I was speaking to Quadrocopter.us about my Gear Rail Brackets, and how they were showing stress cracks. I told them, that this part should be made out of Aluminum, beeing that allot of us are hanging very exspensive cameras from...

If I am correct. The Traco 12v Regulator supplys a regulated 12v for external use on the Power Distribution board. For instance, If you were using a 4-5 cell lip, the traco would drop that voltage down to only 12v, that way you could run power for your LED's or Video TX off the power...

I must Admit, Those LED's were alot brighter than I had anticipated. Chances are that I will hav a signal loss before, I lose sight of the copter hehehe. I do have conectors on them, so I can easily unplug them when they are not really needed. As far as enegy consumption. If they used 800mAh...

SWEEEEEEET. I threw the props on and took it up in my living room. This copter is Rock Solid. I am very impressed with the initial flight. I will get it out once the rain here stops, and give it a real good testing. Thanks again to everyone that helped me out on this. I have returned the favor...

WOW, I remeber when night blades first came out and thinking "how did they get that led in there". This totally shows how fast technolgy in this hobby advances. Freaking Awesome

ELECTRONICS STACK AND MOTOR WIRE INSTALL. Being that this was my first build using the Hercules. I ordered my Hercules pre configured from Kopterworx. They were a great help, and my Hercules was ready to go. This really sped up my Build. More importantly, it gave me a great starting point for...

Hi guys, I Just finished building another AD8 Heavy Lift. I have a client wanting a heavy lift Octo using the Hercules boards. So I figured I should build one for myself, and thoroughly test it before recommending it to others. Since this was my first build using the much anticipated HERCULES...

Let us know how it works out for you. I have the same Gimbals/ servos and was thinking of this upgrade. I held off because I was worried that the 7.4 volts would damage the servos (if not immediately, then after time). Give us a review of it once your done.

Thanks Krleas for all your help and support, especially for answering my 100's of emails :) Ill let you know how it goes.

When you guys speak of Reprograming a single controller. Are you refering to One whole Hercules board, or a single motor on a hercules board. Is there 4 controllers on one hercules board? I was advised to bump my min gas up a little in the Kopter Tool. I put the min gas at 12, and that seemed...

Hey Guys, I am finishing up an AD8 Octo Build with the Hercules Boards. I Got the boards pre configured and such from Kopterworx. I am sending them an email also regarding this issue. I thought I would post here though in case someone else knows whats going on. I have everything hooked up...
