    F550 flyaway

    No, it was found in woodland. The zenmuse gear is bent so looks like a hard landing near the camera area. The motors are solid and some of the wires have been chewed at!

    Replacing H3-2D with H3-3D on DJI F550

    If you use your old H3-2d GCU then you wont have to do any soldering... just plug everything in

    Tarot T810

    have you ever used xt60 connectors? They are very secure and solid... I think its best to not attach to the body because they are a tight fit and you need to wiggle them to remove... Because they are shorter too than the EC5s they are stronger and hopefully wont give up at the solder joints so fast.

    Tarot T810

    I used XT60 connectors... I had to make my own parallel connector to run two batteries together.

    In Ground Station, what happens if you lose connection(s) mid-flight?

    My iPad air is wifi only and is fine. The only thing to bear in mind is that you load the app with your wifi at home first so the app can cache the maps for where you are going to fly... Or can use an iPhone in the field by tethering but don't forget to turn off wifi!!!! IT CAN CAUSE INTERFERENCE!!!

    Whats next after f550 to fly a nex?

    I've reached the same point with my F550 and I've chosen a Tarot t810. I've not received it yet but it looks to be a tricky build! Looks a nice big/steady frame and love the ability to fold up.

    In Ground Station, what happens if you lose connection(s) mid-flight?

    Glad all was ok!!! We've all done it... And as I said the fright is bad enough but usually recoverable! I've outgrown my f550 so moving all my kit onto a tarot t810 soon! Would want that dropping out the sky! Just goes ores to show the benefits of these forums :)

    Is there a problem with the S800 model?

    I was thinking about upgrading to an s800 but i've seen so much said about "death rolls" and problems that I'm wondering if there's a problem with model? Maybe the problem lies with the wookong or A2? I had planned to take my naza and all parts out of my f550 to build the s800 so maybe that...

    In Ground Station, what happens if you lose connection(s) mid-flight?

    Hi, If you loose connection mid flight your UAV will continue its flight as programmed as the mission is uploaded to the Naza so it carrys out the entire flight as programmed. Same happens for any connection loss. I find that I sometimes loose signal at 0.5km and sometimes its ok to 2km but it...

    Next step from an F550?

    So Im already thinking of moving from an F550 and probably looking at an S800... The S1000 seems a little too expensive and a bit larger. More than I would need. But the S800 looks about right. So Im wondering (to keep the costs down) if I could use my NAZA MV2 from my current rig in the S800...
