    LK24-BT + CAN-HUB + A2 - Where?

    Hi Dave, the link needs to be plugged into Can 2 so you can place the hub anywhere on Can 2 and then what ever else you need can then plug into the hub. The joy of the canbus is that you can basically plug in any component to any available spot and it works. On the WKG there was just one Canbus...

    Ronin m. What do you guys think for aerial?

    Movi roll drift is horrendous too....if you dont allow the GPS to lock! I have to say I am surprised that DJI haven't made this properly useable under a copter out of the box. Seems like a big mistake.

    FREEFLY Systems Freefly ALTA, RTF collapsible hexacopter

    Id like to see how good the Synapse is though. Originally it was going to rock but that was when John Cunningham was behind the design. They may not have someone nearly so good coding it now or indeed they may have someone even better! However, if you are going to lift high end stuff you...

    losing altitute with big x8

    The reason for the drop is simple. As air increase flows over the pressure sensor, a reduction in pressure becomes apparent (Bernoulli's theory). Thus the sensor thinks that it has gained height and so it asks the machine to loose height to compensate. This is also why, when you stop, the copter...

    losing altitute with big x8

    I think it is something to do with the DJI algorithms for the X8 mixer rather than anything being wrong with the physical design of their kit. Its a bummer for sure but you quickly learn to compensate with the throttle easily enough. The Gemini is better in this respect but from my experience...

    Adding an additional SUA to PFAW

    EuroUSC may well ask for a flight test however the CAA dont so you can simply add it as you like and you will be perfectly legal (providing it falls within a category that you already have on your PfAW). When it comes to renewing your PfAW you dont have to go through EuroUSC either, that can...

    DJI S900 with A2 on a Cruise Ship

    @sguarch I think the biggest problem you will have is not radar related but in keeping up. Cruise liners do not look like they are going fast but they are often going over 25mph and some can be going nearer 35mph. I know there are many MRs that will go over this but to retain any good movement...

    DJI put me in business, and is taking me out...

    I wont close the thread as what is being discussed is still above board. All- the thread has gone off topic somewhat- can we either get back on topic or start up a separate thread on the safety element of flying. Thank you.

    Aeronavics / Droidworx SkyJib X4 Crashes Testing Failsafe

    Sounds like that in your receivers Failsafe setting the throttle is set to zero- it must be set to over 10%. On the bench, power up the system, turn off your TX and see what the throttle does Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I think they are called JSTs but could be wrong Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Something like this which is used on the Movi- http://www.fast-lad.co.uk/store/quantum_connector_male_female_q-c-0003-p-15433.html Or you could use Deans or micro Deans like these: Deans...

    Align Multicopter has anybody gone away from stock gain settings?

    Yeah but if you realise that he posted in the Align RTF Multi-Rotor Helicopter pages you would have twigged that this is what he was talking about

    What transmitter are you using for gimbal?

    Helicopter TXs done center on the throttle but I think a lot of TXs can be configured to self center easily enough. I have to say that my cam op uses a Spektrum however we are thinking of switching to Futaba as we get too many glitches on the Spektrum. The Movi uses only one sat controller and...

    Finally!

    Ive answered every pm you have sent me! Well Bart, in the UK house prices are always the top topic as they always seem to go up. If you are moving from one house to another then the rises and falls matter a lot less (unless you are moving up or down the property ladder) so hopefully the fall in...

    Align Multicopter has anybody gone away from stock gain settings?

    resheehan, very sorry someone misread this as a DJI thread- I would have replied but I have yet to get my hands on any Align kit other than my 450 Pro single rotor! Have you had other problems with people assuming you are on DJI kit or is this the first time. Just curious as I don't like seeing...

    Waterproof Drone

    No footage though showing how the props get into shot. In the first video the camera looked as though it was simply looking forward. Ideally at this pitch there should be no props in shot. There's some real potential behind the waterproof concept however so keep up the good work.

    New Release: Connex HD Video Downlink 3000FT $1599.

    '$1599 sounds expensive, and 130 gram is a bit heavy.' April fools right? You know how much a Bolt Pro 2000 is which is no more capable?

    Waterproof Drone

    The real issue I would see here is that the motors are permanently in shot. Not sure what lens you are using but if it is a standard GoPro this is something that needs changing in the design of the aircraft I would suggest.
