    Tuning help please..

    Its obvious that the WKM normally calculates the throttle. Imagine a bird with no payload hovers holding altitude at mid stick. You add payload wkm has to recalculate how much throttle is needed again to hold altitude at mid stick. When i was testing my octo the first time with wkm the octo...

    Tuning help please..

    could be but the code in WKM should not allow you to hover at little throttle no matter which motor prop combo you are using. It should notice okay throttle stick not in mid position or over mid position i should not hover or rise etc. Could it be something with you ESCs, calibration etc. ?

    Sick of not having Telemetry, possible Workarounds.

    ja well its getting there. Im starting to wonder though why it was become so complex and buggy the whole thing. Actually its a clean and simple setup. The other birds I was building were much faster builds and i wasn't concerned about details messy wiring etc. Guess just bad luck.

    Tuning help please..

    Actually sounds like WKM is calculating the throttle wrong. If you move your throttle stick all the way down once the bird is on the ground it should stay down no matter which mode. Motors spin a couple more seconds and they should be off. Or you have something wrong in your tx calibration and...

    DJI WK-M and S Bus

    I have a graupner with a robbe Rasst module thats compatible to Futaba Fasst, S-bus. I didnt have to do anything for failsafe. WkM notices that the s-bus signal is gone and goes to failsafe. My graupner to s-bus setup does not even allow me to give a certain failsafe values for the flight mode...

    New Power Distro Board for High Power apps!

    Hi Patrick, Herkules works with micromatch plugs check out http://www.andreasbaier.de/index.php/en/herkules-2/plug-connection. The actual connection to the MK FC i guess needs a molex. Cant remember which I2C option MK FC offers. So you get a ribon cable with the Herkules and the micromatch...

    DJI WK-M and S Bus

    Hi rwilabee. Japp i run the WKM on both bird with s-bus and I like it. Failsafe dosent really need a setup and just one servo cable is great. Camera pitch i havent done yet but i dont think you need another connection over X3 since s-bus should also pass an the pitch adjustment. Only down side...

    New Power Distro Board for High Power apps!

    I acutally cant explain it better than he states it on the website: * For extra powerfull motors or missing cooling posibility (e.g. mounting in a closed case) powerloss can be reduced by almost 70% by activating activer freewheeling. I dont now if i am right on this but all I know is that i...

    New Power Distro Board for High Power apps!

    ah okay was a misunderstanding thought you were interested in the Aerodrive but didn't want it because its peak being 40A, thus didn't think the price would shock you.

    499 for a board. So 4 ESC units on one. I have two of them and I couldnt do full tests yet payload etc etc., but the people reporting in the MK forums and threads are happy with them ! You can check them out in my build using them with the WKM at the moment and made a custom cooler for them...

    Hi Andre, I was thinking about the eagle tree solution but it is quite heavy and pricey. Might got the uni components way. Give me temp ESC bat voltage A being used and everything either life display and/or sd card log. Little shaky if it will work with xbee lets see.
