My craft took on a mind of its own today and crashed into a ceiling 25 feet up. No one was hurt, the crash happened at least 50 feet away from humans and horses. It decided to go in to "return home" mode and ignored my attempts to control it; returning home requires going to 10m height and...

They were rehearsing for an event I am going to go record today. The gimbal was off center yesterday but is dead on today, so that won't be an issue. And they will be in full dress today (gladitorial stuff). This is my first time recording anything other than just flying the craft around my...

Hello, Can someone please tell me how to make sure my gimbal is lined up correctly? As you can see from this video, it tilts to the left, and up. When I change the tilt, no matter how far down I go, you can still see arms, and not really "down," so it needs to come forward. And it's also...

Hello, I got a used AG550-NX Gimbal and have no clue how to use it. I looked online but could not find a manual. Could you please help me with a link to the manual so I can figure out how to use it? Right now, it's only good for mounting a camera on - it doesn't balance or allow control yet :)

So I'm flying my new hexacopter and I'm trying to maximize my air time. Spend the most time flying I can per day to improve my skills as quickly as possible. I have logged 53.1 minutes today, and will get another 15 if my battery can finish charging quickly. Then I'm out of daylight. I would...

I decided to make a Google Drive spreadsheet to track my battery life. I numbered my batteries 1, 2, 3, 4. I put them on a spreadsheet. I track the flight time and mah required to recharge the battery, then have the spreadsheet calculate what my maximum flight time would have been for that...

I'm wondering if anyone names their copters? I have a name for my car, which is ***** Magnet, but I have not yet named the copter. (Here's the car, in case you're wondering)

Hello, I received a Wookong Autopilot Multi-Rotor with my Hexacopter. I would like to upgrade it to use the base station, joystick, 50 waypoints, etc. What, exactly, would I need to buy in order to achieve this? Thanks!

Hello! With the help of Tomstoy I have gotten the bird flying. Now I need to familiarize myself with all of the controls and stuff. I recalibrated my compass, then got it to lift off in my front yard. Trying to get the feel for the controls, I adjusted the throttle up and down and watched it...

I bought a copter from rc-drones.com. It has arrived. Could you please help with basic assembly? I have motors with bolts sticking up. I have washers, propellers, and nuts. What goes on the bolt first? The washer? And which way do I point the washer, with the flat side down or the flat...

I have searched online for an answer to this and have come to the conclusion that no one really knows. A lot of people guess, or say they heard somewhere, or say they read somewhere. Others say to read the FAA Airman's Guide and figure it out for myself. I talked to Tony from RC-Drones today...

Hello, As a kid, I flew fixed-wing and copter, but it's been a long while. Recently, I picked up the Parrot AR 2.0 and had some fun with it. I'd like to get something with more features for recording aerial video and hope you can give me some good advice. Before I step up to a $10,000+...
