Okay, so it is a Heli rather than a multi thing but I managed to pass my B certificate today first time which was a nice feeling- good to know that my manual flying is up to scratch not that I EVER fly manual when working unless in an emergency and all else has failed!

Hi Flappybird. Thank you for the forward of the spam message you got. I have banned this chap in the past and his current status still has him as banned so I am not sure what is going on there. I will forward this to Bart (who owns the site) and see what he can do. Apologies for not having...

Use of a spectrum analyzer? I know of more commercial pilots that use them than those that don't. Not too expensive, easy to use and definitely a good bit of kit to have. I use a wispy which is excellent.

I presume the monitor came with its own battery charger if it came with a built in battery- in which case I would just stick to using that.

Any sized battery can be charged through the balance ports its just a matter of how long you are prepared to wait. The balance wires do not take much of a current so charging 5AH batteries is just going to take a very very long time to charge. However I would stay well clear of doing this and...

I would try a test involving using the kit OFF the multi rotor. I wonder if there is something causing interference on the machine itself hence my suggestion. Set up your VTX/VRX separately and see how it goes. If it works well then fly the MR starting some distance out from the VTX and then fly...

Personally, I would look at moving the GPS to a more central position or at least further along the boom towards the center. This will help reduce the effect of magnetic imbalance due to being closer to one motor rather than the others (I know GPS is not affected by magnetism but perhaps the...

Looks like a neat solution.

Perfectly normal- it's the same on the S800. This is the MR's equivalent to dihedral and it helps create a more stable platform or at least that is the idea behind it.

Even when they slow down the air resistance is way too much to allow them to come undone. I would be more concerned with vibration if they do not center exactly.

Location means pretty much zipp really. Time on the other hand.... I would just get going and get it done asap.

I was just wondering what people are using on cameras like the Blackmagic which only has SDI out in order to get a camera feed back at the ground station?

The problem with both Resource and EuroUSC training is that it doesn't really train you on flying- it is aimed more at the law and procedures. The best way to get insurance is to join the BMFA in my opinion.

Im confused, from the initial post it seems that on day 1 you placed an order, by day 5 you hadn't received it and from this I assumed that it was at this stage you tired to contact them and by day 8 you had heard nothing. My assumption is why I thought you were perhaps being impatient but if...

I have recently done an upgrade to the motors and props on mine. Providing the change does not affect the MTOM nor change any of the procedures you have you will be fine by simply informing your QE and the CAA that the change has been made- no need to re-do a flight test- at least this is how...

Dare I say it but is the flight battery fully charged and if so check to see at what voltage your low cutt off voltage is set at.

What do you use for you downlink as the 4k only has an SDI out I think?

Just be patient and give them a fair chance to respond. Not everyone can respond the instant you send an email. Remember, email sent does not equal email read! I have dealt with them a fair few times and received great service. If you jump in all guns blazing then people tend to get defensive...

Bart the reason for getting the IMU near the center is because this is where DJI reckon that vibes tend to be a their minimum. If in doubt I would just place it away and enter the right numbers in the IMU positioning part of the assistant software. I have build loads of different machines with...
