One big advantage is the speed at which you can follow a vehicle. 120 kph on a TDR. The only downside is maintenance which can be high and you need a good pilot. If a large MR had some form of rotor protection then it may have some benefit on set but otherwise a large SR can do everything better...

Looks like the **** has hit the fan

I would still like to know why do it the hard way. Hollywood are using SR helis for the most part.

I just heard from Photo Higher and the Skyline is temporarily withdrawn from sale for a short while, they will give a new firmware on the 27th of this month and instructions. They mentioned a production delay of about a week.

This has disaster written all over it. The solution is to use a big heli that can lift that weight reliably.

I ordered one a couple of weeks ago, paid with Paypal and never heard another word from them. Is that how they do business?

I don,t see any plastic moulding machines, laser cutters, pick and place, carbon molding, etc. Assembly only it looks like. Can be better for quality control this way. The more in-house the better.

The pre-order gamble. I can remember when, in England there was just one foundry that produced magnesium castings. At that time all of the F1 car constructors used this material for many race car pats. At the start of the season the demand was such that the foundry was overloaded with work so...

The knock-off hexa that these people sell is not the same quality as the F550 from DJI. this stuff is made with different tooling if you take a close look. It is definitely Knock-off and not just a rebrand. Lets see how they get on with the Z15. Sure DJI are not a manufacturing house and rely...

Guys, if anyone is in Pafos this weekend I will be at the Alexander the Great beach hotel signing books and videos on Sunday. On display will be the S/800 complete with Z15 so if anyone wants to come along and have a good look at it you are more than welcome.

The timing will for sure need to be high. Contact Jeremy at Electriflite.co.uk for info on which model of HW ESC has the right firmware. I don't think you will have any luck with the 10x5's but maybe the 11x5 will work ok, as I recall the 3506 is 660 Kv. which is dangerously close to running out...

Terry thats pretty much free of jellow, How hard is your hard mounting? Like the rotationals on the first one.

Looks like you got some good endurance on that thing. That water was made for Barefootin. BTW Kloner those Suppos work great on my F550. I had some 40 amp Pulso ESC that were beautifully made but with some bad code so TC and I decided to work out a way to reflash em with simonk, wow, this thing...

With regard to the roll being greyed out that would make sense because you only would need slew mode in tilt. Roll would be proportional.

I had it happen once when I was 500 ft high. it happened because I came below the 10% throttle. this was before the stick combination shut down option. I opened the throttle and it recovered straight away. Usually these things are operator faults. If it had happened at 100 feet I would have...

Yes I do know what the problem is. you have a Kv mismatch there plus. the esc is loosing the phase switching. Which T -motor is it that you are using. As I recall it's the 3506 that is the real problem one. . Only the very latest HW ESC with 4.1 firmware will work those motors. The Suppo Motor...

Guys I have no idea how well this works but I would be surprised if it was not bad. How much easier could this be for getting a newbie into the air fast.:tennis:

This is quite often the problem when you mount the IMU on the gimbal, much higher gains and sensitivity can come from having it mounted on the airframe. A feedback pid loop is always going to be inferior when you have inertia involved in the feedback measurement. You can only do it this way as...

Somewhat cheaper than WKM waypoint. I love my APM-2 The camera outputs are ten times better than Naza.
