Hi all, I bought my son a nice semi-pro 2WD Basher for his birthday, which he crashed ito a steel planter within an hour of unpacking. But that's another story. I also bought a cheap FPV kit way before this vehicle and decided to plant it on my son's basher whilst fixing it; I was quite...

I haven't had a continuous flight with it as of yet, because I'm still building, testing and tweaking it. But had short test flights of about 4 to 5 minutes, of which I can run 3. On the 4th the battery buzzer starts beeping when it's about 2 or 3 minutes into flight. So adding them up I'd say...

Well, I ordered a new GPS module, which is already on its way. Since I also have an I2C NAV module laying around, I was thinking if it made any sense using it. I figured it would, but need a bit of input from some of you guru's out there :) I figured using the I2C socket on the AIO Pro would...

The S500 is a very nice frame, I own one, and it has way less flex than the Flame Wheel (original DJI) a friend of mine owns. The downside is a narrower gap between the top and bottom plates. The S500 is 480 mm motor to motor and has 7 degree up-swept arms, reducing prop wash. I'd recommend the...

Hvorfor taler du dansk? (Jeg har boet i Danmark ;))

I have a strange issue with my GPS which I could use a little help with. First of all, I did not check the wires prior to connecting it for the first time (stupid, I know) so the TX got fed with steady flow of 5 volts for a bit. That said, it might explain why I can't get the GPS to work...

Je crois ça marche pas, rester avec elle, ou créer un nouveau identifiant

Soyez le bienvenu! Je comprends français, mais l'écrire.. :p Essayer d'écrire anglais, vous ferez bien, je suis sûr ;)

Welcome Harwar. That's a nice looking product! I respect the fact you have thought about more applications than most commercial drone manufacturers advertise with.

o_O Please elaborate dzidris..

o_O Ok, I googled a bit (even before this post, discarding it), and something came up a couple of times as a solution for drift.. Exchanging the rotors diagonally.. At first I was like.. yer, right, as if that would help Then I hooked my quad up to APM, checked level, it was. Checked compass...

I have a few questions about GPS; I have the NEO-6M v2 and also a I2C-GPS board; Should I hook it up ditectly to the AIO Pro, or via I2C (which will work faster)? The antenna and circuit board won't fit together in the GPS box I have; Can I make the cable which connects the antenna to the...

Well, I found snag #1. when I was checking the motor rotation, I found that when pushing the elevator stick forward (my radio is set to mode 2) the motors stopped. And when pulling it back, the motors spun at max. o_O Motors 1 and 4 turned the wrong way, and while changing the motor wires I...

Hi SirMj. Like you, I also started a quad build on a very tight budget. As I already owned a robbe Futaba FX-18, which is a PCM/PPM radio (mine is 35 MHz), I also ran into the same question; can I find a receiver to bind it to. The answer is yes, and cheap: Corona's synthesized receivers. I...

I use an EMAX 4in1 25A, so can't really share experience. I do like the fact it makes for a clean build. In retrospect, I would have liked a Q-Brain (or Quattro) better than the EMAX, for the latter is quite thick (and has protruding screws). I had to get creative on my SK S500 frame to fit it...

That's a very expensive way to learn this lesson.. Wonder if my sister was on duty on that flight (she's a Purser for KLM).

Thank you Bartman. I have the Crius AIO Pro v2, running on MegaPirateNG. 2.8 R3 for now, but will try 3.0.1 R4 soon.

Doing a basic build I ran into a few issues I can't quite solve without a little help. I just want to get to the maiden flight, and when I'm happy with the build, I am planning to add GPS (or should I add it right away?) This is my setup (I'm leaving out the obvious like frame, motors and...

Hello fellow rotor junkies ;), Please allow me to introduce myself; I'm a 38 year old guy from the Netherlands and a newbie when it comes to multirotors. I've always been into R/C from when I was able to hold a transmitter. Back in the eighties everything was bulky and above all, expensive...
