    Cutting F550 base plate?

    I think you could carefully trim the plate as shown. The only traces that you would cut through would be the unused ESC solder pads. You will have exposed + & - traces at the edge of your plate, but you could then take a sharp knife and cut through them a few mm inboard. Paint with silicone or...

    Naza m v2 Failsafe throttle setting.

    Most pilots set it between 40% and 50%. That way if there is intermittent connectivity (or a lag in reconnecting) between the Tx & Rx, and you're in Atti FM, the airframe won't just drop like a brick...

    Phantom never leaves warm up mode

    Can you connect to the Assistant? If so, can you see the FM changing when you cycle the S1 switch? That means you should be able to do a Compass Calibration. Disconnect from the Assistant and do the 360 degree dance. Now connect to the Assistant and do an Advanced IMU Calibration. This usually...

    ipad ground station 2.4 bt sucks

    I have no idea why the Bluetooth connection could be failing when the devices are that close. That's regardless of how far away you fly. Perhaps someone more knowledgeable in cellular technology will see this and offer a suggestion.:grey:

    ipad ground station 2.4 bt sucks

    What's strange is the Bluetooth connection is just a matter of feet. That's from the iPad to the BTU. The distance out that you've flown really does not affect this connection. Blade strike, if you're still following this, have you any thoughts?

    ipad ground station 2.4 bt sucks

    I'll try to help... If both air end antennas are pointed down, that is not an optimal arrangement. They should be set at 90 degrees from one another (one down and one horizontal if possible). It's not clear whether you have the iOS GS or just the original. If you are experiencing signal loss on...

    Do you have to remove the Red esc wire ??

    Bec The specs for your ESC explain that it has no BEC and is truly and OPTO type (like the stock DJI ESCs). You should not be getting any power through the red wire from the ESC to other components. If you're worried about it, john420's explanation w.r.t. checking it will work. You should be...

    What does IMU-OFF Mean on a DJI Naza? Please help?

    If it's an error message, it's not one that I'm familiar with. Naza's error messages are in a XXX-ERR format. The IMU on a Naza is in the Main Controller (MC). It refers to the Internal Measurement Unit which is the gyros, accelerometers, and barometric sensors. This probably doesn't help much...
