    Sky Hero or RC Timer Trooper (clone)

    I am in the planning stages of building a Y6 and have decided on a Sky Hero Spy http://www.sky-hero.com/Sky-Hero_Spy.html 600mm or the equivalent RC Timer Clone http://rctimer.com/product-1195.html. The Spy lists for $500 and the clone for $180. I'll be moving all electronics over from my DJI...

    I hit the trifecta of AP errors

    I finally finished dialing in my 650 hex. I am very pleased at how it responds and how locked in it is with the GPS on. I took it out to do some AP over a section of deserted wetlands (Florida). I am using a GoPro Black with 32gb class 10 SD card, 30 FPS 1080P. I have three issues: Jello -...

    nazam-lite can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer

    I get the above message when I try to open the mac version of the assistant. I tried with administrator rights, as well as user rights with no luck. Anyone have a work around? I googled it and did not find anything. Thanks

    Naza M - Lite won't respond to stick unless giving it power

    I have always had problems with this FC (no GPS). It is very slow to self level, goes like a bat out of hell backwards if I just hover, and now I have a most unique problem. It does not repond to elevator or aileron unless I am giving it power. An analogy is you take your foot off the...

    Problem with maintaining hover and bucking up and down

    I just finished changing motors and batteries on my hex. I went from T-motor 2216-900 on 3S to KDE 2814-515 on 4S. The hex lifts off around 70% stick throttle and after a few second it then accelerates upward. When I give it any stick it will rock back and forth violently. It is also listing...

    Prop balancing question

    When sanding the blade to remove weight, do you sand the top side or the bottom side. I have seen both on YouTube, so now i am not sure. In the past I have always removed material from the top.

    H3-2d gimbal discontinued

    According to Robert @ UAVPRODUCTS, the h3-2d has been discontinued. I wonder what that means for those of us that have our gimbals out for repair?

    H3-2D vs Tarot T-2d gimbal

    I need to replace my H3-2D as it is out for repair, and I don't know when I'll get it back. I can buy a T-2d for $135 from range video. I'm a hobbist using it for AP only. I am having a hard time justifying the $235 difference. Anyone out there have experience with both that that can provide...

    Naza M - Lite not self leveling

    Issue with Naza M - Lite (no GPS) - Flying my quad is almost like flying it in manual. When going forward it slowly levels out, and then goes past center to fly in reverse. I am constantly working the cyclics to keep it pointed to where I go. Gains are as follows - Pitch and Roll 165, Yaw...

    Need FC recommendation

    Before I open a can of worms, I have some very specific requirements that should help narrow it down. I am flying an Flip Sport (400mm) quad. SunnySky 2212-12 980 KV, 9 x 4.5 props, 2200man 3S battery, DJI 30 amp ESC, and an old Naza V1 that is starting to flake out and most probably needs...

    Question on prop noise

    I recently built a 650 hex, and I am using Gemfan carbon filled 10 x 4.5 props. Most of the time the prop noise is almost whisper quiet during hovering and flight. Then for 20 or 30 second they sound like a swarm of angry bees, and then quiet right down again. Props are balanced. My gimbal is...

    Which is more stable?

    I live in Florida, and we pretty much have winds every day. I have an F450 set up for AP. Given all things equal would it be more stable in the wind if I were to extend the arms to 550? Is a hex more stable? Same question is a 650 hex more or less stable in the wind than a 550 hex? Thanks,

    Can't arm motors sort of

    Naza V1 w/GPS, 3.16 firmware. Went to fly today and did my normal CSC, Bottom left, bottom right. The VU is flashing double yellow. I verify all my switches are in correct position, no trim, etc, and still can't get it to arm. When I get home I hook it up to the assistant, and all of the...

    Dead Motors?

    I crashed my DJI F450 breaking two arms. I replaced the arms hooked up the motors to the ESC and when I went to bench test, both motors turned very slowly and were notchy. It seemed like they were turning from pole to pole one step at a time. I traded motors to make sure the ESC that isn't...

    Which Radio Futaba 8J or Airtronics SD-10G

    All, I currently have a DX7 and have come to the conclusion that I may need another channel in the future, as all of the channels are filled up in my 7 channel receiver. I fly MRs (I have gotten out of CP helis) primarily for AP, LOS, and use FPV as more of a view finder than for the immersion...

    How to get extra room for FPV equipment on a F450

    The 450 does not have a lot of room yet alone enough for adding FPV equipment. I thought I'd share how I added extra room to my F450. The last time I crashed (several months ago), I knew I was going to get into FPV. I had already added the top deck using standoffs from Newark Electronics...

    Tarot Carbon Fiber Props

    Does anyone have experience with the Tarot carbon fiber props? (http://www.hobbyrover.com/tarot-3k-pure-carbon-forward-reverse-propeller-set-1045_p1555.html) The price seems incredibly inexpensive. I have some on order, but before I hang $1500 worth of MR from them I wanted to see if anyone...

    Noob to video editing, getting pixilation with Movie maker

    I started a few months ago with a HeroHD. I believe I was shooting at 720P 30fps. Using Movie Maker to edit, and when I uploaded to YouTube, videos looked great. Fast forward, I now have a Hero 3 Black, shooting 1280P, 60fps in the medium width mode. When viewing the raw footage in in Quick...

    Two questions on 3.12

    What is "receiver advanced protection"? Is there a new user manual for 3.10 or 3.12. The latest I found is 2.08.
