I use FCP7x

Its nice to see really long stable shots, well done. What camera and frame rate?

So you think fly aways with DJI's are a rare occurrence? Maybe you should google "fly-aways" then spend the next six weeks or so reading and watching videos about them, then maybe you'll have an idea of what I'm talking about. That term was invented for DJI. Your assumption would be wrong and...

But what do you call a multi rotor moving and storage company? I've seen a couple A2 crashes with large MR's that were over propped. They took off OK but started to become very unstable, kind of looked like they got "flushed" then crashed. These were really expensive MR's and the owners were...

I don't know anything about the Pixihawk but I'm curious what are you trying to lift with 28" props and 170KV motors?

Why would you buy another DJI after the last one you owned flew away? What would have happened if instead of hitting the tree it hit someone or the guys dog? The best kind of tracking device is to use a controller that won't fly away uncontrolled in the first place.

I'd suggest you think about what your asking. What motors to do what? Just about any motor will fly a x650 quad, but what do you want it to do? How much weight do you plan to lift? If all your going for is flight time then get bigger props, lower KV motors, 9" props are a bit small for that...

I've had several DJI's and the SuperX flies much better than anything DJI makes. I try and tell people that and they think I'm putting down DJI, but I'm not. I guess its just something you have to experience for yourself. Have fun flying it.

I believe you also have to reverse the throttle in the setup software of the SuperX. In fact if I remember correctly I think there several that needed to be reversed and at first I thought it was odd but it worked exactly as explained in the setup video and the manual.

Phantom and quality Ap should never be mentioned in the same sentence, its an oxymoron. For professional good quality AP you need something more than a GoPro and without significant modification the Phantom will not fly anything larger than a GoPro safely. And the odds increase significantly...

Yeah the SX seems to be very stable. I've been flying in wind a lot lately, 20 gusting to 30 kinds of winds and my quad, Avroto 2814-11's and 12" props has been very smooth and predictable. I'd be very hesitant to fly in that sort of wind with any DJI but I don't think twice about it now. I...

You know that video is a horizontal medium, right? Your s brave soul testing the RTH with a 13lb payload on you first day. What % did it hover at? What motors and props? What are your first impressions of the SuperX?

There's some great shots in there. Sure wish I could live and work there...

You certainly have circling around a point down well. Not sure what bouncing your referring too but I'd suggest shooting with the GoPro set to medium PV instead of wide to get rid of a lot of the fisheye and also when your flying s close to the ground, depending on the available light the...

I think fly aways are caused by bad programing and a lot of DJI owners make a lot of excuses for bad programing. Sounds like I'm a jerk but if you get 92 stitches in your face from uncontrolled flight you stop making excuses and start looking for a controller that you can trust. That's just...

There's no hype there, it flies exactly as you see in the video, that's what I like about the SuperX, it might not have all the functionality that DJI claims to have (most of which I don't need, but that's just me) but it has always responded exactly the way I expected to control inputs in ALL...

By what people are saying here I'd agree that a DLI probably won't fly away in manual, so don't buy a DJI because if that's the only thing you can trust then its not worth it. The SuperX flies better in GPS than the NAZA flies in manual. I don't know exactly how they accomplish it but what I...

You can set a higher ISO so you can shoot at f./8 or more and focus to infinity. In your case where your close you will have to guesstimate the focal distance, but having a higher f-stop will give you a much greater DOF. I just shot with a 7D on a large quad at an airport so I could not go...

Thanks

This kind of thing sucks no matter why it happens. I was an early adopter of DJI FC's and had two incidents that "inspired" me to change controllers. When intelligent shutoff was introduced my Hex "shutoff" at about 25 feet. When I reported it to DJI and posted the video on this RCGroups I...
