    Someone should introduce these guys to multirotors!

    lol. Agreed! The helicopter looks awesome in the shots, but imagine the costs of running one...or wrecking one during a stunt shoot.

    Water buoy floatation system

    The floatation device is cool. I really like the ballistic recovery system to save your craft when it's behaving badly. Like falling out of the sky. That would give peace of mind while flying.

    Toilet Bowl only on auto land, anyone else experienced this?

    I experienced the toilet bowl effect on one of my landings when I installed the WKM on my quad for testing. It worked as advertised until one day when a gust of wind disturbed it's landing. The craft kept hunting and pecking for an exact spot to land and that caused a wild toilet bowl effect...

    If you can fly one multi rotor can you fly them all ?

    After rebuilding/converting my flat hexa into a Y6 I do notice a difference in flight performance. The flat hexa would float. I would have to lower the throttle a lot to get it to come back down. My Y6 is responsive and throttle on descent is immediate. Do I need certification? No. Do I...

    Why Waypoints? Why not Black Box Safety?

    The battery issue is the only reason why I haven't purchased the waypoint feature. My craft is used for close in photography (line of sight). I would purchase the waypoint feature for a light quad that can get the mileage out of a battery. It's just a neat feature for the heavier ships.

    Warning! suspected bug v5.14a beta!

    You may need to raise your gains (Pitch and roll). Higher gains will make the craft resist change to turbulance. Just don't over do it because your craft will be harder to control and oscillate.

    F550 WKM Gains

    I recently built a DJI F550 and converted it into a Y6. I flew it about 10 times (low altitude) and found it to be too responsive when I gave it control inputs and it was affected by the slightest breeze. I decided it was time to adjust the gains so I flew it (not recommended) in an empty...

    Enhanced Failsafe ideas

    After reading through the forum and hearing complaints/wishes on DJI's multirotor system, I thought it would be great to hear ideas for improving safety features of DJI's flight controller. What are some of those ideas? I think the enhanced battery failsafe should determine height above...
