    Phantom 3

    Yeah, that's what my h3-3d does. However, it will only absorb so much before it just starts panning with the copter. To smooth out and slow down the camera pan, I have to slow down the copter pan. The answer I guess would be to lower the attitude gain of yaw, but it seems that option isn't...

    Phantom 3

    I've never owned a phantom but this looks like a nice camera upgrade from my f550 gopro 3+ setup. Anyone know if you can add expo to the phantom? I find it a must for smooth pans. I have 2 different levels of yaw expo programmed into my dx8 and one or the other works great depending on the...

    Problems after F550 heavy lift conversion

    Smarter than me on the subject for sure. Im a cinematographer with a long history of crashing planes. So a chance to merge the two addictions is a chance I must take. Cheers and thanks again for the info. Extremely helpful ;-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Problems after F550 heavy lift conversion

    Man you are a fountain of good info. I owe you a beer!!! So running the low kv motors on 6s is advantageous to higher kv on less cells I'm guessing. Buys you what? Flight time? Lifting power? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Problems after F550 heavy lift conversion

    that is an excellent answer. so it seems i have some serious tuning to do. and i'm learning that the bigger my ship gets, the more complicated all of this is.. but i want to eventually make some money doing AP, so i am in for the long haul. i'm convinced that i don't want to waste anymore time...

    Problems after F550 heavy lift conversion

    thank you for the reply. yes, that is what i was going for when doing the 550 arm extensions. i wanted to run big props on lower rpms for more torque, less speed. i noticed after installing the extensions and the bigger motors, the arms seem to have a lot of flex which seems to me to be a bad...

    Problems after F550 heavy lift conversion

    Thanks!!! So do you think moving to a beefier frame will help this? I was looking at the tarot 680 and the similar sized bumblebee. Any thoughts on this?

    Problems after F550 heavy lift conversion

    Hey guys. Just found this forum and I'm glad I did. So I've been flying my f550 for a few months with zero issues. I bought it used and the gains were set up beautifully. Very smooth machine. So now I want to add a gimbal and start flying something a bit heavier than a gopro. So I bought...
