    Props for my F550

    After flying the 10x5 graupners in a hover seen fine, but in fast flight the motors seem too warm. I never got to test the 1038's but may need to do smaller props. Whats some other good sizes and brands for a 4S lipo?

    re: FPV ANTI-Vibration Multifunction Landing Skid on a F550

    I just got some and installed on my 550, only one test flight w/o FPV equipment. I noticed some difference in flight but not much and was wondering how these fly with a full load ( vTx,GoPro,vTx 1000mha battery) I'm using stock motors,esc's,10" props, and 4S bat. I've flew this 550 for about...

    New software not working with my older NAZA

    Yes flying again, one of my Rx was older and was questionable but I was sure the 2nd was never crashed. Both AR7000's but I had forgot I had a new JR 921 and it has none of the signs the other two Rx showed. I got to fly 6 packs yesterday and test all the features of the V2 and DJI has come...

    Did I Damage all my batteries?

    Do you mean the amount you put back in the cell to recharge it to bring it to the rated capacity? I'm using a HiTec X4-Eighty charger, the battery's are Turnigy nano-tech 5000mah 4s 25~50C.

    Did I Damage all my batteries?

    I'm having similar problems but its from my battery's not being uses for near a year, I stored them discharged. All will charge but I don't get flight times I did before. Some of them were new 2 years ago and never used. I been charging them after a balance charge, then discharging them with...

    Any problems with the vTx antenna interfering with the GPS

    I'll have to move it under the copter, I took it off for now. I've had pretty good luck with 2.4 as long as the vTx power is low. I'll need to order landing gear for it.

    Any problems with the vTx antenna interfering with the GPS

    I've got a 1.3 GHz skew planar wheel on my 550 with a 300mw vTx, I was wondering if there is any interference with it and the GPS antenna? or how close they can be mounted? I've used OSD's with no problems.

    Props for my F550

    Hey Everyone, I just ordered a new NAZA-M V2 for my F550. I always flew it on 3S 5800mha Lipos but now my battery's need replaced, I have a bunch of Graupner 10x5 I always flew on the 3S's. I have a good supply of 4S lipos I used and have some new I used on my QAV500. I know the F550 with the...

    New software not working with my older NAZA

    Thanks for everyone's help, I have it working on the current 2.20 and 4.02 firmware. Seems I have maybe a bad NAZA, I've changed out the radio (both Tx and Rx) to my JR but the problem I'm having don't go away. I thought I couldn't get the newer software to work but it now looks like a hardware...

    New software not working with my older NAZA

    I just updated to 2.20 and 4.02 firmware and it does not "see" my transmitter or will not calibrate. I went back to 2.12 and it works, even now setting the GPS to 0cm where I'm not using one. I'm wondering why it will not calibrate my DX8 with the 2.20?

    New software not working with my older NAZA

    I found out about backing off the throttle while setting it up with props off. It was a surprise and I wasn't sure if it was working right since I haven't used any newer software since my original. I haven't flew them for near two years from flying another FC. I find different FC's for the style...

    New software not working with my older NAZA

    The NAZA's I have are from around July 2012, I believe just before the "Lite" model came out and the GPS came out just after I bought these. They came with the controller & BEC/LED (the type with clear heat shrink) The box don't call it a V1 but I believe it is. In the picture this is what I...
