    Hoverfly Something Big?

    So how much longer must we wait for this 'Something Big'? I'm about to move to another vendor unless we can get some sort of GPS waypoint feature or at least equivalent GPS performance as the competition. I feel like Pavlov's dog every time they throw us a tidbit of information. It's sad. I was...

    Hoverfly GOSH! Really quiet!

    I guess everyone is flying and not posting. I sure hope the next version of Firmware supports this nice UBlox Lea-6h module I've had sitting around here for a while now. I've still not received any reply on my Log I sent to HoverFly regarding the anomaly I experienced two weeks ago with the GPS...

    Hoverfly OK now I'm aggravated....

    Ok... I almost lost the hex. It's DEAD calm. Clear Blue. I go out front where I have had a few issues with the GPS finding satellites and try again. It starts up, gets a green lock on in about a minute. I wait. No blue lock on. I fly. VERY SMOOTH! NICE! I rotate to the SSW and climb to about...

    Hoverfly Odd GPS behavior

    This morning, I went out for a fly and had an odd anomaly with the GPS PH. First some background... Yesterday, I had several flights without issue and I normally arm and allow the GPS to acquire on my back deck. The HEX faces approximately 020 magnetic. On those flights, the GPS acquired a...

    Hoverfly Here I go again....

    Well... Maybe it's a build thing. I just like building. After some disappointing performance with the big X8 I made some observations and I'm making a change. While watching my x8 fly, she flew beautifully on manual but I could never get the GPS to hold worth a darn on PH. So I watched it...

    Hoverfly New Gimbal with my Power options?

    Hey folks. I've just finished assembling my RustiCWave gimbal and I have to admit, it's pretty nice. I'm using HS-7940 and HS-7945 for the servos and I'm thinking that I want to use a separate BEC for the servo power. I'm planning on using the CC BEC at 6 volts for the servo power and here is my...

    Hoverfly Can I program the Turnigy ESC using the HFP?

    Greetings all... After a short little hiatus, I'm off on another build and I have a question. I know you can program the throttle endpoints on the ESC using the HoverFly Pro after you've used the client and properly set the throttle there. Can I also program the ESC's using the throttle and...

    Hoverfly AH. To foam or not to foam?

    AH. To foam or not to foam? -- SOLVED! Hey Gang, Been reading a few posts and my Y6 is so dang stable, I never really noticed. But I engaged AH and noticed the Y trying to hold altitude, which it did within 3 feet or so. This morning it was dead calm and with the throttle curves, it held...

    Greetings from Knoxville Tennessee!

    Hello folks... I'm new to the site from RC Groups as recommended by several others. I've been in the multi-rotor game for about 10 months now and have never had any previous RC experience whatsoever, except to watch my dad crash his only attempt while smoking a Viceroy and cussing, when I was a...
