Didn't they say that at first all users of the S800 will get a replacement and after that all others who have an old unit should be able to contact DJI and do the same?

Maybe I, too, should start a business like that as it seems to work pretty easily. Promote a product (best of all without any pictures at all) going to hit the market "soon", asking for a nice price and to top it off starting with a "discounted preorder" just to deliver something very flawed...

In my effort to minimize backlash in the gear train of a servo I bought some Multiplex servos with Karbonite gear (should be relabeled Hitec servos) and they have no backlash at all, running much smoother than the Savöx I had earlier, too. Not fully satisfied with them, though, as I found some...

As I apparently don't have the right gimbal or the right servos you can have it! PM me! It is a Picloc 3X Standard.

Without Picloc the videos I can do with my copter are actually quite useable! I was pretty impressed when flying last week without any stabilization on the camera gimbal. If you watch the video you might see what the Picloc would have to do on my copter when flying: not much! With Picloc I got...

Using Wookong on mine which does a good job in flying my pretty large craft and until now the gimbal output was dismal. They apparently have rejoined the game with the last firmware so I might try to give that a shot. Problem is, I do have a pan axis I want to keep using so it is rather...

In the moment I have given up on my Picloc 3X Std. I have now removed it from my gimbal, leaving a non-stabilized, 3-way-gimbal and it is better than ever. No random horizon tilting, no jittering, no shaking, simply the way I would like to have it except for the fact that it is, indeed...

Hey Malcolm! I am using it in slew mode and it works perfectly after trimming. My two resistors soldered into the servo essentially give the same result as a fixed poti so I can't see what's the reason for the strange behavior you are experiencing there. Does the center position of the pan...

Hey Malcolm! Having had the same issues with pan I am pretty certain that you need to adjust the center of your pan servo in the menu. In stabilized mode Picloc will keep heading, therefore servo trimming is nonrelevant but when you deactivate it, the servo has to be trimmed to remain centered...

Firmware is the 56 normal, not extra gain.

Any experience on how reliably it works? I have kind of given up on my Picloc to give me satisfying results. Test flying yesterday it worked for the first few seconds but regardless of gyro deadband settings it started to oscillate around neutral after some time and the horizon again was tilted...

Is it possible to mount the Picloc onto or beneath the camera tray to eliminate the need for a potentiometer? At the moment Picloc is sensing its position (like a tilt to one side or another) and sending a signal to the servos to go to a certain position which is accomplished via the...

Don't use 3S directly, I have read a post of someone frying his PL when he accidently connected the wrong battery pack.

Nevermind my posts earlier, looks like I have some other problems than my Picloc. I won't delete them for everyone to see that you first have to check that it really is like you say :). Twitching on tilt and jagged roll caused by a combination of servo/poti/contructive problems. Now I need to...

After some more tests today I can rule out the servo for being the cause of the, well, stepped performance of my roll servo. I have connected it directly to the receiver and from there it performs absolutely smoothly. I can't point my finger at it but atm it looks like the Picloc correctly...

Okay now I have modified and reassembled my gimbal, loaded the current firmware, reset everything to factory defaults and adjusted everything from scratch. Now it's better than before, roll drifting degraded to only a minor problem with wild maneuvers, very fast flights and it recenters when...

At least they smell the competition in form of ZeroUAV and try to sort out some things they either promised a long time ago (PPM Sum) or botched in the beginning (replacement of defective WKM). They would've never done that without the pressure. My Wookong probably will be replaced by an...

Hm, on my octo the ESC are out on the arms near the motors, too and my unit arrived here in December 2011. What now?

Using Hobbywing FlyFun 60A opto on my octo with approximately 1,20m in diameter (never measured that, actually :D) and a lift off weight fully loaden (2 5S 8000, gimbal with Canon 5D) of around 10kg with Hacker motors and having perfect results in all aspects. What I have read is that some...

Thanks for the hints, I will try that for sure and I hope I can resolve it.
