    Phantom 2 VISION and VISION+ FPV Glasses from EPSON

    Using EPSON MOVERIO glasses and DJI iOSD to create a functional HUD

    I shoot aerial photos and video for my forensic animation business as well as for my small film production company. For us, the DJI Groundstation has been very useful and we also have used a couple of video downlink setups to be able to precisely frame shots. On many occasions I have to fly...

    Any ideas why a Spektrum DX8 won't work with my Zenmuse Gimbal?

    I've been temporarily using a Graupner MX-20 Hott transmitter for a cameraman to control the Zenmus and it works brilliantly. I want to put the MX-20 back to work flying since its a bit of overkill just to control the Zenmuse. I've got a Spektrum DX8 with receiver that have worked well for me so...

    S800 Lifting Capacity Question

    I've got an interesting project that I'm trying to figure out whether flying one of our S800s would be feasible. The case involves the crash of a Navy Seahawk that struck transmission wires 180 feet above ground. The crew was flying at night using gen3 night vision goggles. I would like to fly a...

    Blue and Green Light Issue on my WKM

    I had my laptop in the field today and used my WKM Assistant software to make a few changes in settings. When I powered up I noticed that my LED blinks BLUE instead of PURPLE in GPS mode and GREEN instead of YELLOW in ATT mode. I've tried reloading and power cycling but nothing I do makes the...

    Proper way to wire LED strips ...

    I've got some LED light strips that require 6-12 volts. My S800 uses 6S for power so I'll need to step down the voltage for the LEDs. I found a BEC at my local hobby shop that will take 6S voltage and outputs 5 to 6 volts. Would that be the best way to go or is there a simpler (and cheaper than...

    S800 Gain Settings

    I'd be interested to know what gain settings you S800 owners have been using. I noted an earlier post where Robert had upped his pitch and roll settings to 200 with no problems. I'm going to maiden mine tomorrow and would appreciate any info you guys care to share about your experience with gain...

    A couple basic questions regarding Charging/Batteries

    I have a ProtekRC SuperPro 1000 power supply with adjustable voltage 12-30V and I'm powering a Thunder Power TP820CD dual port charger. The charger accepts 10.5 to 28 volts with input current drawing up to 40 Amps. I want to do parallel charging doing 6 5000A 4S Gens Ace batteries at a time...

    GH1 / GH2 Shutter Trigger

    Hi guys. I'm flying a Droidworx AD6 with the PhotoHigher AV130 and have been triggering a Sony NEX-5 with the GentLED system. I'd like to fly the GH1 or GH2 cameras but would like to know the best solution for triggering the shutter. I see that Quadrocopter has a shutter trigger that they...

    Greetings from California

    Really love this forum, guys. I'm a former trial attorney turned into a forensic animator for the past 17 years. We've hired RC guys to get plates for us for projects over the years but finally decided to bring it in house. I've got a MK Quad and a Droidworx AD6HL. Getting a Y6 soon. This is an...

    GPS Dead ...

    Droidworx AD6HL with WKM. I was trying to work on the dreaded "toilet-bowling" behavior when switching on GPS. I saw a post where a user said he eliminated it by recalibrating his compass before each flight. I was skeptical, but did the recalibration per the instructions and had no trouble. ...

    Monitoring LiPo Voltage

    Is there a better solution for monitoring LiPo voltage in flight than simply relying upon the LED warnings and built-in low-voltage protections of the WKM? I had assumed the WKM downlink would provide battery status along with the flight telemetry but that doesn't seem to be the case. Being new...

    Have misplaced my Groundstation Install CD-ROM - Need USB drivers

    EDIT: I found my disk. Not sure how I delete this thread, though, so sorry to take your time! After installing the View/Downlink software I put my DJI Groundstation Install CD-ROM somewhere safe and, predictably, I can't remember where that safe place was. I'm wanting to try to re-install the...
