I've recently tried the Super-X on X8 built to carry a Blackmagic 4k. The frame is purpose built to carry Red Epics, an even heavier camera. It has not gone well, so I would appreciate any advice. The AUW is 20 lbs, Freefly 40 am escs and PDB, Tiger 4012-480kv motors, 16 inch APC props. The...

I've been away from overfly for awhile and I can't get my props to turn. I go through the left stick, right stick initialization and get the rapid red light indicating that it's armed, but when I throttle up - nothing. When I move the throttle above about twenty five percent the beeping that...

I have a HoverflyPro black board with the latest firmware that has I've flown successfully as +octo and as an X, but I've been unable to get it to work as an asymetrical X hex. I've diligently followed the manual and I am confident that the props are all oriented and spinning correctly, all...

I am in the arctic and have a major problem. One of my Pelican cases arrived on the baggage carousel wide open and missing a lot of critical items including all but four propellors (thanks TSA). As a last ditch effort until I can get more props sent I am considering trying to run my Cinestar 8...

Well after scaring myself one too many times flying farther away than I probably should, I decided to take the gps plunge. The install was not too bad, but I was sure cursing that two position dip switch that you invariably have to reset, especially now that it's hidden beneath the gps board...

I've been asked to fly a Red Epic. Anybody tried a heavy lift job with Hoverfly? I have a CS8 with Icelite 50 ESCs and QC 3328 motors at the moment. Suggestions? I'm leaning toward turning it down.

Well it finally happened, I flew too far away and lost connection with my Spektrum DX8 (yeah, I know - not smart.) I had the failsafes set to AL and throttle set one percent below hover with the payload I always fly with. I assumed that if I lost signal the helicopter would hover slowly down...

I have been struggling for about one month to get smooth video. I'm using the HFP with a Cinestar 8 and a Cinsestar two-axis gimbal as a single operator system with roll and tilt stabilization coming off the HoverflyPro board. The jiggle occurs in both auto-level and manual flight modes. The...

I've encountered a strange new phenomena. I've been flying the newest firmware for several weeks and all is well, but recently I am experiencing some drastic trim changes during a flight (in completely calm conditions). I can trim it out at the start of a flight and it hovers perfectly, but...

I am trying to get AH working with my Spektrum DX8, but it seems that there is only one two-position switch on this radio (Gear). That two position switch I already have used for switching between AL and Manual flight modes. Has anyone tried using the three position switches Aux 1, or Aux 2...

Has anyone tried to launch a Hoverfly Pro multi-rotor from a boat or launched by hand? Does it require a stable platform to initialize?

I flashed the latest firmware successfully, but I have been unable to connect my PC successfully in the setup utility. For some reason the purple LED no longer flashes when I connect via USB. I have tried re-installing the driver several times. When I try to connect in the setup utility, the...

Any ideas why the trim values would be so different between AL and Manual flight modes? I'm using the new HFP board with the latest software update and a Spektrum DX8. The gain settings are equivalent in both modes (one positive and one negative number), but they're so far off it is very...
