    Mikrokopter Waypoint flyaway

    I've set 6 waypoints all in the same location. My goal was to get the mk to an altitude of 10m then rotate 90 degrees every 4 seconds. (I should have reduced my radius size from 10m). When I triggered waypoint flying it took off in the direction of the arrow and I recovered it over the parking...

    Mikrokopter Higher altitudes while keeping horizontal position?

    I think the mikrokopter people call it elevator mode. Here's a photo from 90 meters :) If it's windy it's more windy up there so you need to be aware of how it handles and what to tweak. There are a few stories of "fly aways" at higher altitude. I can attest that with the wrong settings it will...

    HobbyKing Buddycode: Plush 18A ESC

    I would think you'd get a buddycode as well if you purchased the 60A. My code will only works for the one I bought.

    Mikrokopter MK std frames, mounting motors

    One other thing I did with remounting the motors was to put the screw through a vibration dampers (2-3mm of silicone fuel line), between the arm and the motor. I got a couple comments that it was much quieter with the new bearings and dampers. Also I won't be running the wires through the tubing...

    Tau Labs It does single rotors as well

    Does it replace the tail gyro as well?

    Alternative Motors for BL-CTRL 1.2?

    Ryan, you mean the AVRoto 2814-11? I ended up replacing the bearings and now they're great. After paying attention to how many amps the hexa draws I'm never near max so less worried finding the exact match. The AVRoto looks good.

    Roxxy 2827-35 motor bearings

    Most of my motor bearings were having significant noise. 4 of 6 motor bearings have been replaced. The 2 remaining still sound and feel good, the BOCA replacements aren't noticeably better then the original good ones, I would hope that they would be longer lasting. I can't tell if there is any...

    Roxxy 2827-35 motor bearings

    That's the kit I got (the ABEC 5 ceramics). I couldn't justify the price of the ABEC 7s

    Roxxy 2827-35 motor bearings

    Try contacting Boca Bearrings. I did with my MK2832-35. They investigated and put together a package (now listed on their site under mikrokopter). They originally got the package wrong and sent out a replacement free of charge. In my case the upper and lower bearings only differed in size. I...

    AR Drone Win an AR Drone from Parrot!!

    I'm rarely on facebook so I may be missing something, but when I search for parrot there is no icon to click for "add as friend" so how do you make them your friend?

    Any fans of XHeli.com here?

    I purchased trexpro 450 clone from them, all went well, delivery was quick to Canada. I know of someone else who had a good experience with them as well (complete heli package).

    Droidworx Frame Giveaway contest

    Droidworx kicks ass, brown nosing should be reason enough for a win, but I'll also write up a detailed review of the frame for this site.

    Mikrokopter Come home not working

    Found out the problem. I had to put in some trim when I added the camera mount (shouldn't the MK have adjusted for this automatically?) or else it would move forward significantly. The added trim messed with the both the CH and PH but the PH was still able to work a bit, CH just didn't. I'll...

    Mikrokopter Come home not working

    I haven't had a chance to try that yet. Buzzed. where in MKTools does it show if it's active or not? I would think if PH works then I have a GPS lock, or does that work on less satelites?

    Mikrokopter Come home not working

    I've recently installed a roll and tilt camera gimbal which works well but now, come home does not work. Position hold works although it seem less locked in then before as there seem to be some drift, when I switch to come home it doesn't change from position hold. In MK tools my position hold...

    Mikrokopter firmware update .84

    I had a flyaway on .78. I forgot to turn off vario atitude hold when trying to land and it started bouncing around, which I understand is normal but then it shot up full speed resulting in a crash and proof that a gopro (without case) can bounce off of 2 roof tops and down 25+ feet onto asphalt...

    Mikrokopter firmware update .84

    Let's hope the log give a clue. Did you actually turn on altitude hold, was it vario? I haven't tried waypoint flying since my last post above, however I've done another 5 using vario and position hold a lot. Seems to be responding well.
