I know some people who are using the Turnigy x9 for FPV with UHF conversion and they all say it is great.....

I had that once, it turned out to be a bad V-sen unit. It was a new one. I was seeing some noise!! Noise can come from other sources as well. especially the vid.tx. check also for bad cap. soldering on the ESC. or broken wire.

The flight times and the wind tolerance is quite remarkable and yes, the penny dropped over the right way to mount the motors. http://www.skyranger.com/

Unlike your mechanical flying peewit a pretzel, large or small wont kill you if it falls on your head.

Kloner The camera is not yet available, The size of the model is very small and compact, those props are 8x4 and it is only 18" across the center motors. The motors are a special multistrand rewind on the nice iflight 2212's. The center motors are not a part of the same stabilisation...

I don't need a brushless gimbal as it has enough movement in the camera system which has auto tracking and 20x zoom. For vertical downwards shooting it can use a separate GP3 in the bottom if I ever need it. (unlikely). I have other machines that do that. The heaviest part is the yellow oil...

When I see the fiasco at the British GP today with tyres blowing out all over the place it reminds me that everything in life is a compromise to some extent, despite the endless money that goes into such research. The situation with any control over MR ops. has to be based on technology that...

It is interesting, even if you don't win they still have you're material to distribute anywhere. I make a living from distribution of video clips and a typical fee for 10-15 seconds of the right kind of aerial footage is around 1000-3000 usd. but could be considerably more. So anything that you...

It has to be a Zenmuse with that 360x360x360.... just another FOD.

Ultraperm-80 found on Ebay etc. is a good solution for shielding your mag module from interference. :tennis:

I think in many cases the rubber balls make the vibration worse. unless the gimbal is suspended so that the center of mass is supported equally then it creates an oscillation. helis can throw out some big vibrations that need to be treated carefully, batteries and gimbal accessories all need to...

I think DJI mastered the simple task of creating a stable platform at a very early stage of development. The problem is that as they made the autonomous flight options more complex, the model when flown in GPS and also atti. would try to fight you and bring it to a halt when you wanted to carry...

Getting Ecalc to come up with useful information is like Mclarens F1 aero simulations being of any use at the track. The only way that I choose motors is by trial and error based on the the first choice of which prop. I intend to use as the next phase of upgrade. the watts are going to need an...

I especially like the first one, looks like a AGM Maverick being flown into it's designated target.

The noise is there at 16 khz. but most human ears cant hear it. My ears can barely hear the 8khz. After years of running high speed race engines in a dyno room I am tone deaf to some frequencies. My other half can hear the 16 khz at some distance and finds it very annoying. I think it also...

Yeah sure I fly a SR helicopter because I have proved beyond any doubt that it is the best Heavy lift option available anywhere. You wouldn't recognize it as a TDR anymore with it's five rotor head with fixed rake head blades and no tip weighting etc. But this is not about that. What I am...

As I read with dismay a report that a young child was killed and it's father seriously injured when a model went out of control it brings home the fact that almost every MR manufacturer is guilty of not having any form of creative development ideas. They copy each other and replicate the same...

Been running 4:1 and 5:1 indirect brushless drives on my DSLR gimbal's and not planning to change.

Make no mistake, they not only speak very good English, they read your posts. I have laid a few traps in the past and they fell in every time. Whereas legal ramifications might not work too well in Shenhzen In Germany and the US it will be a different story. The main problem was that they...

Flash I have now had some satisfaction in the light that Dave at DJI Europe has issued an RMA no. for the repair of my Zenmuse. I understand that they will repair the unit on site as opposed to sending it back to China. We will see!!! If this all goes well then I think it is a major improvement...
