    XAircraft Uneven Power output

    Same props (Xoar 15x5) on 4s with only 1-2 percent different. Black box manual mentions this pattern as motor alignment so I'll check them again tomorrow.

    XAircraft Uneven Power output

    This is probably a simple one. I just put the SuperX on a 6S octo. Flight is great. But unlike my 4S setup where the motor percentage on the report was pretty even I am seeing the following. (Motor numbers are offset by a column) Voltage M1 M2 M3 M4 M5 M6 M7 M8 Max. 24.50V 70% 79% 73%...

    Product Review***XAircraft SuperX FC System***

    While it is a 'drive' the files and the software are .exe Windows applications. Works fine on VMWare Fusion. The log files that are created and viewed in the online BlackBox can be used direct on the Mac (download and then upload to the XAircraft BlackBox).

    Futaba dual receiver question

    cbuk if you are using the 7008SB then the second receiver MUST be another 7008SB. What makes the difference is the setting in the 14SG that picks what type of receivers you are using. 7008 uses only FASSTest 14-ch. You can use other RX's and use two of them to do what you want. Since you...

    XAircraft ESC BEC Power

    Wasn't able to find an answer on the forum but the ESC's I have all have 5V power out of the BEC to the servo connector. Are they ok to plug into the XAc IO without pulling the power pin?

    Flying at Altitude

    Dave you will lose efficiency of the props. If you are used to being near sea level the throttle position may be 15-20% higher than you are used to at 13,000ft. Try the calculator at...

    Issues with Cinestar 8 HL and WKM

    Mike do you CW props on the CW motors and CCW props on the CCW motors? If they are on the wrong motors you will still get air flow downwards, just not the right amounts. You can tell by looking at the pitch on the props. And Xoar labels their props with their logo. The thick part of the...

    HDMI to Composite

    The Kopterworx one, while expensive, for most cameras requires no external power. Power comes from the HDMI cord. Only issue I have heard of and am waiting for KW to do a test is whether it will accept 'real' 1080p as an input. Video says that it supports a RED but I have report that it...

    Kopterworx Mini HDMI Converter

    Been trying with multiple emails to the Kopterworx team to get an answer on whether the KW HDMI Mini converter, which is self powered and works great on my Nikon D800 and NEX7, will accept 1080p input (NTSC). Reason for the question is folks are asking about it elsewhere and want to use it with...

    Red Epic on Brushless converted Freefly gimbal

    Iscorama the video you posted is the first step of a two step process for tilt balance. The second video is not posted yet. That is where you do the vertical tilt adjustment. When done with all axis the camera should stay in any tilt/roll/pan location without moving with no power.
