    Bridge Inspection with UAVs

    Hey and welcome... Please understand that first and foremost these aren't toys and they are complicated as heck which I'm sure you already understand but should be said when just getting started at least. We're pretty protective of this hobby in the sense that we all push responsibility in...

    So it begins....

    Hey, but at least you can still get drunk and bungee jump off a bridge...that's still legal and you can film it too, talk about FPV. :) Become the multicopter...

    Naza throttle stuck high!

    The first thing that comes to mind is THROTTLE HOLD FAILSAFE. What radio are you using? What's your throttle hold failsafe set to, 100%? Sounds like you lost radio signal to craft and the craft hit 100% on throttle hold then upon the craft re-establishing connection you were able to land. Check...

    eCalc: XCopterCalc - Prop sizing numbers. What are we looking for in the numbers?

    I am so glad you posted this, I've used that thing a hundred times and it's never right. I have the setup I plugged in there now and it said, WILL NOT FLY or some carp like that. I agree, what is it looking for and why can't you use the right numbers? Is there a better site or way?

    Oregon Senate Bill 71 would ban FPV flying and "drones"

    Thanks for the update! I've heard rumor after rumor but the one that keeps circulating is that "they" may end up requiring a HAM operators license to operate the video portion of the broadcast-ed signal. I'd be ok with having to have a license or whatever the only problem is when the government...

    Wobbling cs8

    I'm guessing you already did the due diligence stuff, checked the arms, the screws, motor mounts, motor balance, motor shafts? bent, used locktite, etc etc etc... To me it looks to be prop'd wrong or tuned wrong honestly. That's my best guess, let us know once you find it! Should be...

    Wobbling cs8

    Looks like you are narrowing it down at least. If the flash caused problems, I'd start there. Also reprogram all your ESCs, maybe one is set to LOW TIMING and one is set to HIGH TIMING or something along those lines. If they are shutting off in flight, and you sure that's not a trick of your...

    Wobbling cs8

    Notice when you drop below the building that it goes away more-so than it does when you are in the wind? Classic too high gain on gyro... EDIT One other thing I've seen is when your gain is TOO LOW you'll see jello effects in your flying. Look at my early videos and you'll see what I mean when...

    Wobbling cs8

    That's a good one but to me it looks like it is over adjusted on the gain side of the gyro, it looks to be overcompensating and then doing it over again causing a slight wobble. If this was the Naza-M I'd back off my pitch and roll settings by 5-10 and see if it goes away. Also, what's the wind...

    F550 project - Any advices?

    Any post stab on that or is that raw? Very good info, I've only ever heard that that DJI motors aren't very powerful but that's very good to know. I've been considering upgrading to a faster spinning motor, the NTM 1350KVs 310W from the NTM 750KVs 250W motors so maybe I'll go ahead and do that...

    Futaba or Hitec or who?? Need HELP picking a radio to support GPS RETURN TO HOME NAZA

    I need some advice on picking a radio. Right now I have invested a lot of money in my multicopter, as many or all of you have too lol :) I want to make sure my investment is as safe as possible which is the idea behind this post etc. I want to be able to fly out of "range" and have my copter...

    F550 project - Any advices?

    I have the exact same Hexa and I can tell you the DJI motors MAY not be sufficient for all that weight. I don't use them and never have but have been around them for quite a while and that's what I continue to hear about them. The Graupner props are nice but expensive and I prefer the APC props...

    Looks really great, the only thing I'd say is your gimble doesn't seem to be leveling quick enough. Other than that, it was outstanding, good work!

    Show what you filmed - Post Your Video Here

    Man, I have done that SO many times now and it's SO painful when you find out you did it all for nothing but to get that ONE shot makes it all worth it. I filmed an awesome sunset just the other day. I'm not a filming rig, I just have a camera strapped to my FPV Hexa, if you will. The way I see...

    So much for cheating your taxes this year then I guess, you're a marked man ;) I'm surprised they didn't take your film too. Did you see my new videos I posted with your old camera? I ended up putting the camera in Pro Tune mode but not using the Pro Tune software. I do the color/balance etc...
