    CarbonCore Cortex....Owners' Thread

    Yo bud- if that flight was just hovering around and taken it easy then thats around your hover draw. Which is no where near 40amps per arm so safe to say you didnt over amp the esc under those conditions. Now you still didnt say what throttle percent you were at hover if you were at 20% or...

    CarbonCore Cortex....Owners' Thread

    personally- if u can't find the data from the manufacturer i would skip what he recommends period. he could just be selling you what he has but those motors should handle the light weight of the craft. if there goners go with u5's on 40amp turnigy plush esc's. proven setup- then enjoy your...

    CarbonCore Cortex....Owners' Thread

    quinton- i remember you saying you put the build into ecalc and there were issues. what warnings did you see motor temps, esc's. i can't find 16 inch performance figures on that motor with 6s. the flight time you mentioned in earlier post was very good so i know that was not loaded with extra...

    CarbonCore Cortex....Owners' Thread

    gotcha.. thats very strange even in the software the motor want arm at all. if the a2 has power and turns on that means the ship is getting power even if a esc cable came off the pdb the other motors would spin obviously. i doubt every esc power cable came off..no way. if your seeing the...

    just a heads up-i read on rc groups from dji staff member there is an update planned for off horizon on the gh3 that will come out. i know this doesn't apply to you guys with the 5d mk3 gimbals that are having issue but maybe it's a clue..the issue with the gh3 gimbals that i have learned from...

    CarbonCore Cortex....Owners' Thread

    quinton- did you ever figure out how to set your endpoints for you servo on retracts just curious as to how it works on futaba. if the motors won't arm with good battery i suppose compass calibration needed or esc's issue. it's odd though that you were able to fly it then have it not work...

    CarbonCore Cortex....Owners' Thread

    theufogadget- i wouldn't say everyone considers dji as a professional product yet maybe the a2 will change it. As all the high end guys in the U.S are on other fc's like mk being the most. the community is small at that level.if the a2 if good will change that i imagine but as of today dji is...

    CarbonCore Cortex....Owners' Thread

    Quinton looks stable. not sure what the deal was with the motors not turning on unless your batt was under the voltage settings for 2nd protection? i will say this though when i got my first naza years ago i landed the ship and due to flying a lot of micro ships and with no naza's i turned...

    Zenmuse Z15 5D MARK III

    check the horizon loss on a pan with the motor's off in 2nd op mode. if there still is loss pretty sure props are not the issue. :nevreness:

    First major incident: Need help with diagnosis

    gtranquilla- i personally was talking about turnigy plush's but have heard that the multistar's are good as well. i think the esc problem with the lower kv motors comes from the simonk firmware that people use to mod their esc's to make them react faster to throttle input and fly smoother. in...

    Zenmuse Z15 5D MARK III

    thanks for responding joepapa. The reason i wanted the zen is everything you mentioned i just wasn't sure what the deal was cause with all these reports of loss on the roll axis. i would personally rather disable roll for 2nd op but that could be a solution it's just another thing i would...

    Zenmuse Z15 5D MARK III

    joepapa- i'm been actually waiting for you too chime in and glad you did. your video tests's are what made me interested in the 5d vs the gh3 z15. i been asking for people to share their result's and talking to other's about this it's the main reason i came on site actually. i understand...

    Zenmuse Z15 5D MARK III

    agreed Tuukkuli- 3000$ is a lot of money on something that doesn't work as advertised. this is not the first product by dji that has not work as advertised. the worse thing about it is they know there's a problem yet offer no solution and claim the gimbal is working as advertised and keep...

    DJI A2 Official Users' Thread

    thanks a lot man!!. i would be operating as a single operator as well so as long as your getting decent level footage it could be a go for me. was it hard to roll the tray around the roll axis spindle. i imagine it's involves loosening some bolt and spinning by hand? sorry to keep pestering...

    DJI A2 Official Users' Thread

    Hey MombasaFlash-when you said earlier that the imu affected the roll axis of the gimbal are you meaning that the horizon was off all the time or did it show up when panning using the yaw of the copter or just horizon loss when pan was initiated using a second remote like as in a second...
