    Servos and Potentiometer

    Hi Dave, running them on 6v. But i heard from some that they change to 7.4 volt servos or analoge instead of digital. Just want to start testing arround. But since i dont understand the servos potentiometer and how they work together i want to go sure to get the right one. Boris

    Servos and Potentiometer

    Hi, i want to start looking at different servos for my not yet fixed :) but coming to live again PH AV 200. I went to a couple shops looking for 7.4 volt servos but no one could guide me in the right direction when it comes to the potentiometer. I really dont know a lot about servos so...

    Gonna cry for a week !

    Hi ovdt, I Just flew mine for the first time after the crash. Kept in a 5 meter circle in the back yard not higher than 2 meters, due to strong winds and constant rain setting in. I couldn't test the the altitude hold. But the same thing happened again. After a full Lipo flight he landed with 9...

    Mikrokopter Droidworx AD 8 HLE (First Build)

    I agree with droider, seems like something else is wrong If your hovering switch on the altitude hold he drops a little sometimes, true. But a 15 to 20 feet drop if the stick is in neutral ( Vario mode ) is not normal. In you MK tool you have a value showing you what the sensor is measuring...

    HI RBlax, i am a little confused about your question. Altitude hold can only be turned on or off. Two postions GPS has three position. For example I have it set to vario mode (in the MK tool). If i switch on Altitude hold and have my gas stick in the neutral position i get a = sign next to the...

    Gonna cry for a week !

    Hmm little worried about the altitude sensor. Testing an fiddling around with the kopter hocked up to the lipo and i noticed that every 5 min 1 meter of height on the jeti box is added. Starts at 0 meters and I had it up to 9 meters in the mean time. Anybody ever experience that ? Test flight...

    Japp do it its better to be on the safe side, but i think you alt issue is also do to something else. Your pretty much sealed up with the dome only part are the holes in the plate that influence the sensor. Its probably a different sensor back in the days, but this shows how strongly they can...

    Mikrokopter Droidworx AD 8 HLE (First Build)

    I would second it with a (hope thats the write word) shrinking tube and shrink it in a little onto the foam and sensor. But what kind of dome are you using ? With the Air holes and lifted of the center plate or all the boards are fully covered and dome without holes is siting directly on the...

    I would take of the Photohigher if you are not using it . I made that mistake at the beginning and messed it up and there was no reason for it to be on.

    For your first flight thats good, My first tries were much worse. Concerning the altitude hold did it not hold the altitude at all or was it just not exact and fluctuating ? you wrap in the altitude sensor ? Boris

    Mikrokopter Droidworx AD 8 HLE (First Build)

    whats the password for the vid ? by the way the kopter on the ground and some motors spinning faster than others can be the FC trying to level out the kopter to what ever its calibrated to to be level. Nothing really to worry about. For me takeoffs are a lot smoother if i let this happen if the...

    Xoar 12x5 wood props

    Hi Emowillcox, 1. The price 56 Euro for a pair x 4 a lot of stosh. From Aerobat they might be cheaper ordered directly but only if i take a whole set 4x2. Including shipping and tax i come to the same price for one or two pair 2. The last couple a had had faults on the leading edge, rough and...
