    Futaba T8FG Super Setup

    I,m getting this movement with full SAT lock using AV200 DJI WKM, gimbal wanders around with small movements. As I am only in the early stages of first test flights and fine tuning I haven't done any AV work yet so I don't know if the same occurs during flight but I can see it on the ground...

    DJI WMK remote gain adjust help

    Wow, that was quick, thanks Geoff. Got it now, I thought something was wrong, I'm using 8FG so I'll assign a rotary dial. Should I enable only one gain at a time? For example roll first then set pitch. Regards Andy

    Remote gain adjust help

    Using assist software for DJI WKM it recommends you adjust gains by 10-15% at a time so why does remote gain (set on my 3 way switch on X2) double or half the settings? Or have I got this wrong somehow. Any help much appreciated.

    Futaba T8FG Super Setup

    Hi Huddo, I've just completed a Droidworx AD6 heavy lift with AV200 360 mount and use 8fG with S-BUS, you should use aero mode without any mix, not heli. Also if using S-BUS failsafe is very easy to test.

    Will it fly? and help me if it does.

    Maiden flight yesterday, only did it on one set of batteries but it went really well, no problems but will need a bit of dialing in. So far very happy!

    Will it fly? and help me if it does.

    Boris thanks for the vote of confidence. Looking at this thing it defies all laws of aerodynamics and feels like a brick! But I know they fly! I've seen the videos. I'm used to flying fixed wing (Gliders) and heli that anyone would recognize as something that should fly but this hexa looks like...

    Will it fly? and help me if it does.

    Hi Boriss, Thank for taking the time to respond, that’s great advice. I fly a 400 size 3D heli but only circuits, no stunts and I guess I just wanted to know what to expect just before liftoff and if it needs instant correction or stick input like a normal heli as it take to the air. I did get...

    Will it fly? and help me if it does.

    OK so my build is completed, now I need some advice for the maiden flight. Can I assume that with the first flight in attitude mode the hexa will not take off until I am past half throttle? Based on the fact that half throttle is the hover point or will this depend on total takeoff weight/thrust...

    Droidworx AD6

    Build now completed, here are some images without dome so you can see the ESC. I have soldered the motor wires direct to the ESC to reduce resistance between connections and also reduce the risk of connections pulling apart, that’s why you may see some additional clear heat shrink on the ESCs...

    Droidworx AD6

    I,m building an AD6 with DJI WKM and AV200 360 gimbal. If I get time I'll post some images, I set the ESCs inboard and cable tied each one to the corresponding arm through the plate. I purchased a Photoshipone PD pcb and used the plates to mount the DJI FC, power module and IMU, the dome comes...

    Police to use quads?

    Just looked up the manufacturers website and eventually found some specifications and they only claim 20mins flight time. Now I feel better, the video footage doesn't look great either!

    Too good to be true!

    Thanks Dave, parts arrived today, I'll send you a cookie (and parts) as soon as. The build continues!

    Too good to be true!

    Interesting, I wonder how the gimbal will perform with tilt and roll stab. with my DJI WKM and would I benefit from this mod, also why do you say "stay with 6v"?

    Too good to be true!

    No problem Dave, Droidworx have just sent me a very apologetic email and are sending parts out on Monday, I'll get them to you ASAP. Now looking forward to building again, I now have the 360 added to the AV200, is there a manual for the 200? I found the build manual for the 360 but no...

    Too good to be true!

    Hi Dave I am missing 2x inner boom claps for my AD6 HL frame, I got the frame from Heliguy because they are local (I'm in Northumberland) and although they have been as helpful as they can they don’t have any spare parts and I will now have to wait for parts from Droidworx (more than a week I...

    Too good to be true!

    Hi, thanks for that. I am waiting to see if my supplier has any in stock but to save time I have also sent an email to Droidworx. It wouldn't have been so bad had it been a part used in the late stages of the build but as you know this part is buried right in the middle of the frame so I can't...
