    FPV relay idea?

    Hello all Just thinking, could you not use a small quad just set to hover at say 400ft above you to act as a fpv relay to your main uav? This would mean much greater LOS ranges without having to worry about stronger tx anyone tried it? Ben

    yeah they fail to mention how the Movi gets rid of lateral up and down movement, surely one of the biggest effects of hand held!?

    Zenmuse repair

    I am very tempted to just order a new encoder from farnell and give it a bash. Does anyone have high level schematic for zenmuse? And/or does anyone have a zen and a logic level analyser so I can check a couple of things against mine?

    FreeFly's direct drive gimbal...

    Na they aint stepper motors, brushless. I might try knocking up a stepper motor solution to try, got a few high resolution ones kicking about. Advantage with them is lots of torque, but I doubt it will be that smooth. B

    Zenmuse repair

    Yeah tried that, I also disconnected the Encoder from the Roll axis, this prevents the roll spinning, so I suspect this is where one of the problems lie (if not the only one). Those encoders are pretty delicate and i think some grit got in there.

    Zenmuse repair

    Thank you Geoff. I've had a closer inspection this evening and it seem that it's the roll axis that has the problem. On power up it starts normal calibration (you think everything is ok), and the after about 5 seconds it just starts spinning faster and faster in roll. Ben
