I did check your email.

Gary, Close up pick and explanation on how you mounted the GPS pole.??

What about giving us the option to adjust the Z setting with remote gain. Hmmmmm......worth a try to ask DJI I guess. I mean if the Z is that crucial. If no GPS it defaults to Atti. Same as if you power up switch to GPS and take off before it finds any satellites.

<<ESC response rate driving motor speed changes that makes the difference and most ESCs currently available are not optimized for fast response>> Great info. So what is this ESC response rate? Is there a spec. for such thing? Is it the physical hardware or firmware? I'm tired of not...

That is looking very impressive. A very affordable solid combination. I'm really really liking the F550 for a small camera platform.

As far as specs and pricing and availability goes. Until DJI releases information its all speculation. I can promise you as soon as I get a hold of a unit I will post. As soon as I get any information I will post it. Mid to late March is the last I heard. Information will start flowing...

Very nice build.

I can't wait, I literally can't wait.

Tick Toc..........I hate the wait for the giimbal. I want all the new goodies.

Lou, I hear ya buddy it was 55F yesterday here in Michigan. Best winter yet.

Yes, i agree temperature fluctuations will cause the White LED also. Gary, Mid 60's is beach weather here. :)

Flashing White LED the majority of times is disruption of Attitude. This is the same with all DJI autopilots since the beginning. We have been carrying and flying DJI's for over 5 years. The original XP 3.1 for helis would flash the white led if you mounted the IMU on an angle, if you had...

What I do is put the frame on the floor so its straight up and down (Perpendicular). Mark that spot. Lift frame off the floor, let it sway and come to a stop. Set on floor, Mark that spot. Measure the difference of the two spots. That is the Z Axis. Seems to work for me.

I agree Kloner. I love my JR11X. Its just when you get into Octo's etc without S-bus you begin to get limited on the extra channels you can and can't use with the DJI. I have no experience with the orange rx's. Now if and when JR comes out with a s-bus rx I will be loving my JR 11X even more.

For failsafe my understanding is just the control mode switch needs to be set and it will automatically put all other channels to position for hover. HOWEVER, I always put my throttle to mid stick when setting fail safe. I figure it can't hurt.

Looking good Gary. I'm having a lot of fun after work playing with the F550 Hexa. Very stable. Added some LED's on it and a spot light. :) Short boring hover video at night with iPhone. Kinda hard to film with one hand. :) http://youtu.be/X22H_vizW5M

Glen, I use JR gear (very similar to Spectrum of course) but if I had to do it over with DJI electronics I would go with the Futaba t8fg because of the s-bus compatibility. I have no real loyalty to either TX manufacture. For Lipos 3s or 4s are your choices. I prefer 4s because its more...

Smaller props with WKM make a big difference I have found on any platform.

I agree about the detail. Its just there is such little room on Multi frames to mount everything that I hate. :dejection:
