DJI implemented a kind of fail safe if you lose a motor, rotor, or ESC on a HEXA. It will cause your craft to spin in an effort to counter the loss of one control arm. You'll have to switch to Intelligent Orientation Control so that you can guide your spinning craft to a safe area to land. It...

I haven't tried them, but I like the design. It looks like they are made from one sheet of carbon fiber to form a uniform blade vs. two carbon fiber blades attached to a fragile hub. I think the ones in the post are knock offs of t-motors's brand. I want to try t-motors props, but they are...

Lmao

Yep, it's ironic. It sounds like he's trying to deflect attention off of his company. I guess people can easily see loss of privacy from a "drone" being in the sky. Lets not forget wifi data passwords collected from google street view capturing cars.

Checking the inventory of a few sites leads me to believe that a lot of dealers have low supplies of the current hardware. I guess they are preparing for the new arrivals. I'm thinking mid April before anything ships from China.

Lol. Title is funny. It looked like the party stopped when the multi-copter went down. Who knows what happened. It looked like it was flying pretty well. It's the unexplained drops from the sky that make flying risky. I worry more about that then actually crashing into objects. Prop...

I downloaded the app before they pulled it. I received an update last night and knew that they were back online. The update added compass calibration to the software. I just need to find a blue tooth led module.

I had Gemfan props that looked like that. One of the props snapped at the hub (the weakest point on that design) which sent my craft down. I had less than five minutes flight time with those props. I image that your craft has some weight if you are using 12 inch props. Carbon fiber is...

i think the FAA should allow "commercial" use of multirotors that are under a certain weight class and operate no higher than ?? feet in populated areas, ?? feet in sparsely populated areas and operate under 400 feet in all other areas. Height limitations to reduce or avoid the amount of damage...

DJI looks pretty exciting. I like the Aluminum housing of their new WKM. It should make it bullet proof on bad crashes. I don't know how I would bind my radio with their built in receiver. Im not to thrilled about folding props. I had one quad (old tech) that had a prop fold onto itself...

how many care?

Thanks for posting the video! I want to know what the new WKM will offer. I like how it will communicate with the ESC. The redesign of the S800 is an admission to some of the vibration issues with the current S800. All of this new tech is going to make the current system look like a...

If the wife looks good then I'm sold...so long as there's good updates. :)

1. Agreed. These multi-copters will fade from the news as more and more of them hit the skies and we see them on toy shelves in department stores. 2. Agreed I'm certain licensing, proof of insurance, flight worthiness test for aircraft will be expensive. It would be nice if the FAA...

. That sounds legal to me.

You know...theres a market for everyone. Not every film buget can afford to hire a helicopter, pilot , and camera crew for an aerial shot. I do believe that it was the film industry that applied pressure for the end of multi-rotor use in LA. Everything seems like it's in shambles right now...

Are you filming with the "Drone" and using the aerial imagery for commercial purpose? Are you just filming something about "drones" on private property. I think the gray area is commercial enterprises that use "drones" for commercial use. Private flyers doing a job here and there aren't...

I've seen a couple of videos on Youtube of guys flying DJI Naza and WKM craft in Israel.

I use Photoshipone's power distribution board. Every now and then you'll see them sell a kit with capacitors to help keep the power flow nice and even. I don't know if I actually needed it, but all of my craft have used it. It survived a very bad crash and it's still good as new. Fear of...

I hope they add at least one waypoint feature.
