    DJI WKM Firmware 5.12 Update

    Frank, You can downgrade back to 5.06 by using the assistant for that firmware release. I never used 5.06 so I'm not sure which assistant version you need, but I'm sure somebody else will chime in and let you know. Alex

    Wookong-M Firmware v5.10

    Dave, I THINK the confusion with the RTH is from people who are using it on a switch for the first time, due to it being a new feature. To take control after RTH has been activated you have to switch control modes. Eg. Flying in GPS MODE you activate RTH. At this point switch your control...

    Wookong-M Firmware v5.10

    I'm confused by the chinglish manual on the POI feature. For Example: I wish the craft to circle a tree in the middle of a field. I fly above it and save the home position above that tree by flicking the switch rapidly a few times. I then fly away between 5m - 500m and activate POI. The...

    Does cloud affect GPS hold?

    Ah, that'll be bad news then. Don't understand what could have caused this behaviour to suddenly appear. Possibly time of day and flying in close proximity to my house? I don't know. Also, when yawning left if I release the stick the octo carries on turning for a short while, it does not do...

    Does cloud affect GPS hold?

    My WKM powered AD8, which usually holds perfectly was wondering quite a bit in GPS when I flew today. The sky is quite overcast, but i'm still getting full GPS lock. Would the cloud be causing this sudden toilet bowl/wandering? Cheers

    Bnuc-s

    Hi, Looking for a bit of info from guys who have done the BNUC-S qualification. I'm looking at booking myself in for the ground school and examination for the BNUC-S. The website dictates that I require the relevant insurance to fly when it comes to the flight test. Is this specific UAS...

    Props--- what brands work?

    Don't know what they're like on lighter craft, but I've had really nice, trouble free performance out of the xoar wooden 10x5 props on my AD8

    JR11X Failsafe switch

    Hi We had an unexpected test of the failsafe feature on our AD8 HLE the other day. There was a problem with the lead that connects my jr11x to the EZuhf unit and it lost signal mid flight. I'd been terrified of testing the failsafe for some reason, but it worked nicely...still, it was horrible...

    F550 with NAZA lifts off doesn't stop rising... Don't know what to do..

    I had this on my AD8 with wkm. Everything would respond as expected in the firmware and on the copter before it left the ground, but as soon as it left the ground it would keep on rising and not respond to any roll, elevator or yaw. Only way I could get it back was to cut the engines. Turned...

    Are my lipos ok?

    Ok, so on my AD8 HLE I run 2x 5500mAh 5s lipos. I have two lipo monitors on the back of the bird which give a digital readout of: the full pack voltage and the seperate voltages of each cell. When flying I tend to land when the monitors are reading 3.6 - 3.7v per cell in a hover. Once i've...

    Commercial aerial photography in UK

    As I said, you need to know the law inside and out to use any of it. I do not use it as I do not, and have not studied law and therefore don't dare try it. I just have an interest. I agree that the bnuc-s is a pain and very expensive, but it does help to prevent atleast some of the newbies...

    Commercial aerial photography in UK

    Have a look at the freeman movement. It's all about common law (not causing harm or loss, basically what a good conscience tells you what not to do) vs commercial/admiralty law and what actually applies to a human being. Person in legal terms (blacks law book) is a legal fiction that legislation...

    Man with wings takeoff-off topic

    The video was an elaborate 8 month long hoax by Floris Kaayk, a CGI expert who has produced a few mockumentaries/art films. Apparently it was experimentation with "online storytelling"

    Interesting Z axis settings..

    I use xoar 11x5's, so fairly similar to the graupners. I don't think it has to be set to zero, on some platforms it might benefit from being much higher or much lower than the actual COG....but I've only experienced the affects it has on my copter, it may be that for the majority out there...
