    Aeronavics / Droidworx Flight Time assistance needed.

    #2 The weight hasn't changed. I did notice when I checked it (just now) that the X axis was set to "0" and should be -11 Y and Z are correct. I'll fly again tomorrow and see if it still exhibits the same tendency to turn left without input. If you are in St John's, your setting in correct as is...

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Flight Time assistance needed.

    Today dawned sunny with a bit of wind at 5~10 mph .... a perfect day to try new things. Gains were set at 130 across the board. 4s5000mAh (35C) fully charged hung underneath for balance. Graupner 9/5 props installed. IISI Telemetry unit installed and set to alarm at 25% (remaining) bettery...

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Flight Time assistance needed.

    I checked out quite a few cases based on the size that I was looking for. Peli's were too high for what I wanted to spend (<-- this coming from a guy who just bought a CX-4!!) Anyway, it seemed to be what I needed and I've been happy with the case after it arrived and I started to fit the CX-4...

    I've also hollowed out the front area where the CX113 fits nicely without putting any pressure on it during transport.

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Flight Time assistance needed.

    The CX-4 V2 has removable landing gear, so it fits in there with no problem. I remove the props and gear. Turn the gear upside slot the CX-4 booms under the skids (they come off too, but it's a bother to get them back on). See the attached pics (sorry, left the props on) and I didn't add the...

    Ya bought it!

    Hi Razzil. I just bought this case http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ntt=HPRC+HP2700FB&N=0&InitialSearch=yes&sts=ma&Top+Nav-Search= from B&H. I can send better pictures if needed. It's quite well made and has two side clamps in addition to the front closures. I couldn't beat the price and...

    I'd send it in for a warranty exchange and see what comes back..... :)

    Hi Razzil, Thanks for the photo's and information on your gain settings - and your email address. This is turning out to be a different handling quad than my F450 / Disco. I'll set the gains at 130 across the board and see if it helps things out. I'm still zeroing in on the proper setting for...

    Thanks Razzil. I agree completly! Pictures do tell a priceless story sometimes when you're (me) stumped. I'd aslo like to get a copy of your Assistant settings as those might help me understand how you've set up your CX-4. I've sent you a PM. Thank you! Dale.

    Nicely done nicwilke! Looking forward to more footage....

    Hi nicwilke - How have you fitted the GoPro brushless gimbal? I'm guessing that it will hang underneath. Will you need to attach longer legs or "catch and release"? Dale.

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Flight Time assistance needed.

    I was able to get in the air today - finally. The wind was still a bit on the gusty side but I tried to find a quieter spot to test things out. First things first. I changed the first level of protection to 13.7 (loss = 0) and the second level (Auto-land) to 13.0 (loss = o). NAZA assistant...

    JoshMaxAmps - Thanks for the explanation. I guess the voltage cutoff is set to a safe point based on the amp draw. High amp draw = quicker achievement of the first stage of 'notice' from the NAZA that I need to start paying attention - it just doesn't seem to correlate with the number of mah...

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Flight Time assistance needed.

    Hi nickwilke - The CX-4 V2 has two battery holding 'detents' added into the landing gear. I have tried to fly it with the two 5000mah batteries strapped in but had some serious 'harmonic balance' issues (severe in-flight vibration) that I have not experienced with the two 2600mah batteries...

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Flight Time assistance needed.

    Based on this, would you suggest that the 2814-22 motor would provide the necessary efficiency to work within the combination of ESC, Motor and 4S battery to lift the weight (understanding that the battery "capacity/mah" will determine flight time)? Re: your comment about calibrating the NAZA...

    Razzil, I'd also be interested in your EzOSD setup? I have one in a box along with some FatSharks that I planned to put into the CX4 once it got sorted. Thanks. Dale

    Nicwilke, Here are the 4 files that I forgot to attach. ...oops Dale.

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Flight Time assistance needed.

    Thank you Razzil, Hearing from someone having some experience with the CX4 - and longer flight times - makes me think that there are some additional contributing factors that I haven't thought through. It seems that our setups are very close to the same .... so I must be missing something that...

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Flight Time assistance needed.

    I've fitted the CX4 with 9/5 Graupners - but the winds are pretty steady at 15 with some gusting to 35 so -- I've decided not to test yet. If it calms down a bit this vening I can still get a couple of flights in and see what the actual flight times are vs the eCalc results. I have added four...

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Flight Time assistance needed.

    Hi Nicwilke - With longer flight time being the desired result, is there a "formula" - or thinking that will allow me to achieve that result? i.e why 2814-22 vs 2217-20? How do I determine the best motor / weight / prop size combination? Thanks! Dale
