With APM once the flight plan is uploaded then it does not require the link unless you want to track the progress. Once you initiate the auto mode from the transmitter or from the laptop it will carry out the mission.

With APM you can cache the map tiles when you have an internet connection, Later in the field these will still be available providing you zoomed in to that level and location. For setting waypoints and uploading these you do not need an internet connection. Only a link to the APM either by...

You still need to update the naza to the latest firmware to use the BTU, I also use a Mac but I ran VMware Fusion to run windows inside the Mac system, works fine. There are other options such as Parallel's which does a similar job or Boot camp where you can install windows as an option on...

Is there any chance this could be a bad compass calibration? I had a similar result with a failed compass calibration. I had a good fix on the ground but after take off it would not stay in GPS mode and would revert to Alti.

DennyR, Tried to PM but your mail box is full

Yes it should if you have enought sat's in view. What I am referring to is that I was seeing the green flashes yet due to a low sat count I had not recorded my home point. As it turns out the green flashes indicate recording the IOC direction and the home point may or may not be stored at...

The EVO sounds like a typical Chinese fix for the problems with the original S800. No root cause analysis and then working around the problem rather than fixing it a source generating a whole new set problems that are as yet unknown. I would not have bothered to rename this the EVO, just...

My understanding is that there is a 2.4ghz data link to the ground station, this then uses Bluetooth to transmit to the iPad. This way you dont have to carry the datalink around on the ipad and DJI do not have to go through the expensive developer program for making an interface for the iPad /...

I will see what they say, I am already speaking to them about a new control board for my retractable landing gear.

I have found that one of the arms on my S800 RCTimer has a intermittent connection error. The problem is in the main body of the craft as I have swapped different arms and the problem stays in the same location on M2 regardless of which arm is used. On the ground everything seams fine and all...

have you programmed the fail safes in the assistant software? Check in the software the when you turn off your transmitter it does go into failsafe. Also note that the rapid green flashes means that it has recorded course lock not the home position. Make sure you have no red flashes before...

Once RTH is activated it will stay in this mode until you flip the att /GPS /Manual switch, if in GPS flip to Att and then back to GPS and you will have control again. THe speed at which the Quad flies in RTH is lower than normal speed so if your a long way out this will increase your return...

Those motors are 700KV and I doubt if they will run on a 6S, I tried some 530KV motors on a 6S system and it did not like it, it seamed to miss sequence some how. I would go for a 4S system and you should be fine.

I have read that it is best to keep the distance between the ESC and the battery to a minimum. This can be increased by adding additional capacitors to the ESC to avoid the shunting effects. Having said this, I use RCTimer 40A ESC under my motor mount on the Tarot 960 with no problems. I...

First of all I thought that the 9.8Km could have been coming from the previous days flying in a different location, but I have now measured this on google maps and it was only 4.5km from where I was the day earlier. I had a concern that it could be saving the location to memory which would be...

Ok, I checked the manual and it does mention that the IOC is automatically recorded after 30seconds of power on and that the home position is recorded after 6 sats are found. Not a very good idea to use the same LED flashing procedure for two different setting in my view. At least I can...

I was flying this weekend at a new location and it was taking a little longer to get a GPS fix on my Naza than normal. on my iOSD i was seeing 6 satellites and then I see the rapid green flashes showing a GPS lock. However in the iOSD it was still showing 9.8KM away home point. I unplugged...

From what I understand the signal wire needs to come from the receiver, if using it from the naza it will try to pitch depending on the attitude reading in the naza. As this is a closed loop system you do not need this feedback. I run by board directly for a 6S system.

Unlikely that no 1 will happen as this requires that they apply for "Made for iphone" status which by all accounts is quite expensive. the best route would be audio down the video transmission which will give you as much range as your video link.

I think they will use the APP store, they already do this for there setting app and to get a app approved is only a matter of a few weeks in my experience.
