    Mikrokopter Problems with servos in MK

    Roberto, it's probably just a typo but to clarify: the white wire is the signal wire. It's the red and black wires that should go to the BEC. Is that how you have it routed? nick

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    daniel, no internet connection is needed. Just connect the picloc to your computer via USB and start toolz. Then press the 'connect' button to establish communication between the picloc and picloc toolz. You may need to change your com port if it will not connect.

    Tabb, I literally can't wait! :D :D Looks incredible... I'm hoping your gimbal with the 3X and your servos will be magic in the air, bro. nick

    transitional lift

    Yes, fixed pitch helis. What threw me initially was the CW/CCW aspect of the rotors. But it's irrelevant...

    transitional lift

    I was speaking with a friend of mine today who's a full size helicopter pilot. As we were talking about multi-rotors and my okto the subject of transitional lift came up and the question of whether it benefits MRC's the same as conventional machines. We decided it must as the increased airflow...

    Mikrokopter Mk nc sd - ok?

    My understanding is that the nc has a 2GB limit. The log files are small (~1MB for a sixteen minute flight) so 2 gigs stores quite a few flights.

    Mikrokopter Mk nc sd - ok?

    Very useful. You essentially have a flight data recorder that logs everything. Great for optimizing your setup and then monitoring the status of the whole machine on demand.

    CS8 to X8 conversion - Herkules ESC III V3

    Jimmy, you're absolutely right- the competition is indeed good for all of us. You make a compelling case for the DJI system. No doubt I'll be trying it in the future. Looking forward to seeing footage from your rig!

    CS8 to X8 conversion - Herkules ESC III V3

    Jimmy, once your DJI setup is good I'd love to know your thoughts on the difference between it and your prior MK setup. The weather around here sure has been dicey lately but this weekend looks pretty calm to get in some test flights.

    CS8 to X8 conversion - Herkules ESC III V3

    Hey Jimmy, I can't offer any specific help for your situation but I do want to clarify something I've read a few times now. The CS8 (and probably all big oktos) can fly great with big props. I guess it depends on the flight control board. It does seem that people prefer smaller props with the...

    Not off to a good start in the new year...

    Understood. What happened with the quad that got dunked? Were you able to dry it out?

    Ken, just to clarify, did the fast PWM firmware improve performance? If so, will you miss it?
