the hero black is a nice cam, wait till the dd hero gimbals are $300.......

a zephyr is a good place to start. you can slow to about 20, speed up to 90, fly for 40 minutes and can usually cover 30ish miles built right. i usually wind up 2-3 miles out then i turn around and drag my prop around, it's a good time, but needs space to do it right,,,,, open space...

I've seen that channel before...... what do you think it is? perfect example of when we talked and you said theres no way to film fpv on the plane, when it's easier than slowflying. Like driving a car, riding a bike, flying fpv. was a fun vid

I like this guy,,,,, he's funny http://velodynelidar.com/lidar/lidar.aspx were flying these things, just gotta little more dialing in. You should hear the buzz...... 2mm accuracy with layers of data like what built google maps, but on anything people want surveyed. It's what the google car...

welcome to MRF if you ever get the oppurtunity to sell lidar data, hit me up and i'll make it happen.

check that mentor map we got around here somewhere and see if anybody is in your area.

when dethro came to me this weekend, the bind was that it wasn't letting anything center so he had adjusted subtrims, but that wasn't the right way to do it. if you can calibrate the tx and all the bars look green, you should be good to go. Make sure throttle is at half stick and showing green...

the intializing will be to drop the lower value a tad. Esc's look at the throttle being off before they'll boot up, that makes the low end point the culprit I've got three of these boards now. 2 are on simonK, i set the throttle range on em all once and there throttle range is 100-100..... the...

those are mili ohms of resistance, not voltages...... know how when you over discharge a pack and the voltage looks different on each cell and it wasn't that way new, that's IR damage. the IR just shows the level of the damage. On mine i'll watch individual cells, but i base my fly/no fly on the...

That's a decent rig and there is alot of guys here using them for money. they make half way there look perfect............... just locks you into a certain camera and for alot of work we come across, that aint good enough. Everybody wants dslr flown, but it depends on the market. It's not the...

thanks, i'll give that a shot. Started with it at 25 on the software and bumped my radio up 5 clicks at a time, i'm up to 78 now and when i dip into low 80's it gets less stable but aren't sure if that's the line or if just needed to punch through. I'm not used to such a big craft yet so it's...

the light going out is a bad plug/wire/connection/dead vu there is some damage showing there. drop the values to like i said and it should be fine, might fly one pack, remeasure ir.... if your really watching the craft to tell you when to land i'd suggest setting a timer on the radio so you can...

this is what happens as a pack has a high internal resistance, it lets the pack sag under load more than it had previously. Sagging voltage lets low voltage cuttoffs come on....... I'd disable it or drop down the values to let it sag more. your pretty safe letting it hit 3.3v a cell under load...

where did you find 10 amp hour gensace? or is that pairs of 5000mah? 42 miliohms is up there. i used to get 18 mili ohm gens ace 25c, now they all come over 30 to start with and seem easier to damage than i remember in the past. the nanos i'm flying are measuring 26 mo on the connector, 2 mo...

the waters great, jump in where are you located Ross?

hoverfly just added a beep when it's armed.... after the first day with the rig around people, it made a nice line between people walking up to it and not. it doesn't just beep, it beeps every 2 seconds really loud till you throttle up

no sir, it's a 2 man rig. Still gotta do some gimbal adjustments, it won't point down and has a weird lag on input, but for a basically maiden and just a cripple guy on his couch tuned gimbal, it came out really close. This hoverfly stuff is pretty dang easy to tune, still haven't attempted to...

are you shipping to USA?

question about the gain tuning...... when i try turning up the hfp self level gain in manual, it seems like the higher i get the more slow wobbly motion i get when it hits wind. Am i just not high enough yet if i don't see a high speed oscilation? I'm one mark under half throttle hovering in...

I'm finally sober and back to flying, this was the first flight..... Thanks Kari, you saved me alot of grief
