I was able to fine tune my Octo way beyond what I could have done without the app. Even the free app worked great, but the paid app has a few features that are nice, like logging.

The future is looking bright.I know some others are working on getting brushless direct drive systems onto the market and I am glad to see video samples that are so promising.

Photohogher also has great service, so if there are missing parts then they will send them to you quickly. I have the AV200 pan kit and the only complaint is the landing gear. The old style landing gear needed to be glued and the new rod style constantly needs new grommets as they tear...

I had this issue in the field a couple times. Luckily I had a laptop and reloaded firmware to fix the error. If you are not the the tuning stage, it might be worth a reload.

I have mine lined up the best I can with the tray. I leveled the try then used two screws located where the RSGS is attached to reference to level the RSGS in relation to the tray, so both are level. The two are lined up the best I can get them. The instructions need some serious work. I...

Sorry, my bad. I had old sub-trim set and I had to change it to fix the tilt drift. It still does not arm level, so have to figure that out, and now when I pan the roll moves. Hmmm.

A SRH has more vibration issues than just props. They are a constant battle. Gears, bearings, balance, motor etc... Then they all change when you try to go to a different head speed.

@Iris This is not APC TE specific as I now use wood props, but I thought I would bring it up since you are getting wierd vibes or occilations. It is easy to overlook the basics with the amount of time we spend on these rigs. Even though the props are balanced on a balancer, there are more steps...

I was able to get through the Auto tune. BUT..... There are some quarks. It arms but the tray is slightly off center each time and in no particular consistency. Also, tilt slowly creeps forward as I let it sit. Also, the tilt servo center is way off so when I input tilt it slowly drifts back...

I am having issues with 1.6. I loaded firmware. Set xy and Z levels. Hit Auto tune and nothing happened, It said Servo Tune Routine in lower right corner. I tried again after unplugging and replugging and got the tune sequence to occur. I noticed the Tilt axis was off a few degrees and spirit...

So then I am mounting to the camera plate? Or do I still make a L bracket to mount to the top arch of the Av320 (like I do with the AV200)?

I am looking for advice on how to mount a Picloc 3x pro V1 on my AV320 gimbal. Should I have it on the camera tray or on the pan axis? I have only used it on an AV200 with Pots on tilt and roll. I have a Hitec HS-5645mg on he roll axis modified for 360. Potentiometer is outside the servo, but...

Damn, we'll keep our eye out. Most of my filming crew lives in San Diego, so I will spread the word. Sorry for the loss. You never know, some good always comes from even the worst events.

Shoot went fine solo. It was a smaller than expected showing. Iris, I will keep you in mind for other shoots. We will be doing this same shoot again, probably in south bay. Although I did not use the HFGPS during the shoot, I did try it and it held position very well. A first for me. Although...

Come on. You have one hour. Your racer quad can carry you:) Going at it solo. Should be fine.

Has anyone fitted the GH3 into an AV130 yet? How does it fit with the AV out wires?

Can someone list what improvements were targeted in 1.5?

I am shooting an Aerial for my sisters website tomorrow, January 6,2013. www.myamericanpantry.com She is starting to map culinary artisans in the US and we are hosting a flash mob of foodies sort of type event. I will be flying my Octo with a 5d for stills. I have full downlink for framing...

Edit: sorry wrong thread although I am not having success getting a smooth start to Pan with RSGS either

Yes, The hoverfly Pro is the best for AV work on the market as far as I can tell, unless you need advanced GPS operation, but for AV work I would not think you would need GPS. The 2 axis stabilizer on the pro is probably not as good as a HF gimbal or other gimbal mounted stabilizer, but I think...
