    Eagle Tree - Eagle Eyes Ground station

    I've got a new, boxed and unused Eagle Eyes Ground Station up for grabs. Never been used or plugged in. Bought it without thinking my plan through and so it's surplus to requirements now. £55inc uk postage… ---

    Immersion RC RX PPM to Naza

    had same issue a few weeks ago with the DX8 nothing IRC can do about it as the PPM stream is coming from the radio, so it's either the radio which needs a software fix - zero chance of that, Spektrum told me they don't support things like EzUHF - or DJI need to add a specific setting for...

    DJI 5.8G Video Link is releasing.

    Again, nice neat units, but: • fpv fatshark/ImmersionRC folks don't get too excited as it's not on the same frequencies • so no using your IRC uno/duo for antenna tracking or multiple A/V out • no using your fatsharks with built-in Rx • just a single A/V out so it's either goggles or recorder

    Spooky future of Multirotors.....???

    here's my hexapod… I started with one of zenta's phoenix hexa's from lynxmotion, but at the time you programmed it to do a bunch of moves, via zenta's excel spreadsheet app, but you didn't have direct control it just ran move sequencies. Then i saw Mat Denton's micromagic hexapods, which is...

    Aeronavics / Droidworx ADX3 Yaw issues

    thanks for the reply… using graupner elektro 11" top and bottom, don't think they have an option with higher pitch. esc's are HK f-30's flashed with simonK rapidEsc firmware, but going to try Falco-wii-esc code some time this week - buttery smooth on my discovery/wkm build. my gut thought is...

    DJI On Screen Display (IOSD) with 2 AV-in,releasing soon.

    When you think about it an OSD is really only needed for FPV flight, so the info should be fpv specific. If you're doing LOS aerial photography/filming, you'll probably use the data link - which has all the info you need, on the laptop screen, for that kind of flying. If i ever use the goggles...

    DJI On Screen Display (IOSD) with 2 AV-in,releasing soon.

    I think the USP for the DJI unit is system integration. If you use (for example and because i happen to do so) EzOSD, then you're adding an extra set of components into the mix, doubling up on current and gps sensors while missing out on autopilot specific information. Simply adding the DJI...

    DJI On Screen Display (IOSD) with 2 AV-in,releasing soon.

    nice, but do have a few observations… can the osd be usd as a hub as i have no spare bus connections when using the 2.4 data link? for use as an fpv osd it would help to have 'distance from home' and 'direction/pointer to home' info. would also be nice to have a receiver (ezuhf for example)...

    a fix for getting stuck in a tree …

    Not sure if anyone else has seen an aeroloop, but it looks like one of those gadgets which might save a small fortune if you ever get stuck in a tree not super expensive either… Thought i'd take a punt on one, given that my local fpv practise field is surrounded by trees… btw, i'm in no way...

    Flight skills - self improvement ideas ?

    Been on a bit of a mission lately to significantly improve my flight skills and get to the point where i no longer have to double think orientation. Built a Naza F330 for the purpose and run a couple of packs every evening in the back garden with no mucking about. Been flying lots and lots of...

    Aeronavics / Droidworx ADX3 Yaw issues

    cheers… all props dead level and parallel to each other - filed some off each motor mount peg so i have some lateral play to adjust and even bought a set of feelers to nip them up right. i've got the Y on a dial - will give it another go later. i'm ruddy paranoid about this build as it's...

    Aeronavics / Droidworx ADX3 Yaw issues

    Been trying to dial in my ADX3 (Y6) build recently. Originally had an issue with yo-yo-ing but seem to have solved that with more vertical gain. However, now having an issue with yaw. Firstly it's quite (very) reluctant to yaw and when it does it doesn't feel 'connected' - i feel like it's...

    Futaba radio - RTH mix help please

    thanks, will have a go now. I did have this working on my DX8, but in the process of switching to futaba. If you look at the tx monitor in the DJI tools, when you activate this mix in manual mode it goes off to the right, but if you look at the bottom of the window the mode indicator changes...

    Futaba radio - RTH mix help please

    Could anyone help me set up an 'in radio' mix on a futaba radio, to trigger the RTH function please? I want to set this up so it an 'in radio' solution, rather than taking up a channel using the wkm function. Haven't quite got my head around the futaba menus and ways of doing things yet…
