some changes again :) Finishing up most parts are in house already. Just need to assemble and the dome I still have to do. Additionally i have to think of a connection system for the ESC cables. Think it will be a combo for the dome holders : Changes the plug and play system for the arms...

I would approach it differently. Check on the weight of the components you are planing on using and calculate the overall weight of the bird. So enter the grams inkl. drive ! If you go with not inkl drive than Ecalc adds the compoents like lipo motors ecs to the overall weight etc. Can you...

You dont need a bec to power the RX. Either the MC from the WKM or the GCU of the Zenmuse both can power the RX, thus in case of a two RX setup both are powered ! VTX also gets powered either from the IOSD or the GCU of the zenmuse ! The amount of flight time you will safe will be minimal if...

Ches the zenmuse is actually designed to work with the flight lipo up to 6a. This is will power your RX and vtx. I Personally don't see any benefit of using a secondary lipo in this case ! Boris

Hi Guys, looking for red or black transparent polycarbonate or Makrolon or whatever other brand names it has ! Anybody know any sites were i can order it ? I would need 1 mm. The form is already printed so just looking for the material ! Thanks Boris

HI Alexoki, they are 16mm carbon tubes thickness 1.5mm. So 16mm outer 13mm inner dimension ! I am going to change one or two more parts a little and put everything in one STL files could be that it becomes cheaper with shapeways ! Ill update everything tomorrow ! Boris

DONT order anything yet, before you dont have an overview of what else is needed etc. But feel free to download the design and print if you want ! Okay Pan Components ! Dslr-brushlessdslr-double-90-angle-v2.html...

Cool thanks for the info ! Have to buy a bigger number of lipos soon gonna check the desire ones. Lipo is still the area were i cant make up my mind whats the best for the buck and safety for the bird ! Boris

Beja if i missed it sorry. Whats the weight on the full setup now ? and what are you flying 6s 8000 x 2 and getting what flight times ? Thanks Boris

Beja should work with free mixers ! Use your SH switch to trigger the mix and the mix should effect your channel 8 ! I am actually not using the coming home feature but triggering a fake coming home by setting the copter into failsafe ! Keeps one extra X channel on the WKM free for something...

Jhardway i had a 7d on it with a medium lense and it worked ! Its adjustable on all axis and the cam can be balanced out on tilt roll and pan. The zenmuse set the standard on balancing out the cam which other gimbals in my eyes are lacking and i took care to consider all the adjustments...

Guys changes of the gimbal to reach the final version. To keep it more adjustable and that it can be taken apart motors changed easily i changed some parts. Not every one would like to glue the parts together like it did ! Additionally pan can be adjusted forward back which is crucial when...

still a little issue with the pan strange very inconsistent on this axis ! otherwise happy

Very nice beja it a beauty ! I am very tempted to get a skyjib to step away from the 3d program and just have something finished in my hands ! Boris

getting there: little slow still on the roll axis and little drift from time to time. But that can be fixed ! Off to mounting it on the copter after testing tomorrow with a 7D, but already had it on it should work with no probs.

by the way mounting the ESCs next to the motors it not my thing. Several did it before especially bartman ! I personally wouldnt do it in combo with all FCS. But since I will be using a AQ FC it makes sense ! Boris

@ mbsteed. Once everything is finished and working i will post it all frame gimbals etc. ! PLA ABS is great but most parts eventually i get done with shape ways the material is just a better and the prints more percise ! @ jdennings. I am not happy with my first design of the removable...
