    S800 alternative props

    I think you will have to stiffen the arms as well as changing the props. The very bad vibrations that I have heard about seem to come from bad ESC's. As I never had this issue myself I don't know what the bad ones are. Or if that issue was just bad soldering/connectors.... If you need...

    Where can I buy this part - S800

    I think you will have to order it through a dealer as DJI no not like sending small parts as a single order.

    S800 alternative props

    A point worth mentioning is that if you are moving about from one country to another you may find the temperature is a lot different from your original set-up station Low temps can cause prop. failures with plastic stuff and watch out for declination setting. It could be 8-9 degrees out which...

    Yes those are the ones to try also the Gemfan 15x4.5. You should conduct your own experiments and find out what works for you.

    S800 alternative props

    Graupners tend to have a very uneven base which makes them more likely to slip. APC's were my best choice for actual shootings. Xoars run very slightly longer.

    That power supply looks identical the the SkyRC one (the manufacturer) and it's 50 bucks cheaper.

    Naza-M and Naza-H Gps module

    Definitely not the same, it has different part no. If the weather would improve I could tell you how well it works. Hail stones like golf balls today.:upset: It may not rain much in Cyprus but when it does......

    Two MAXAPMS 11000mah in parallel?

    I was seeing 7-8 mins with a 5 amp battery on a S800. something else is wrong. Are your temps high?

    Two MAXAPMS 11000mah in parallel?

    This is by far the most effective cameraship that I have built and it uses two 11000 maxamps in series FWIW. I think for a S800 and two 11 amp batteries you would need 15x4.5 props. or even 16" with the tips cut back slightly. The question is Do you really need more endurance, most jobs can be...

    The endurance is affected by temperature quite significantly and also the state of the Lipo. I was getting over 20 mins in the hot summer 35-40 deg. and taking the discharge to max. limit with new batteries. The Maxamp 11,000 ma. battery is quite different to others that I have tried. That model...

    That is not the problem because the 4mm hole on my adapters does not extend into the shaft. That is someone elses problem

    S800 alternative props

    So everybody who makes adapters has got it wrong then! for years now they have all used Alum. All the motor manufacturers etc.etc. 60/61 is the type of material that is used (I don't know how many times I have to say that before it sinks in) and there is only one aircraft grade higher. 6mm...

    S800 alternative props

    With a S800 and 15x5 Xoars and a 1100 maxamps you should be getting at least twenty mins. (30deg.)

    S800 alternative props

    If you stripped the thread then that is different from it breaking through normal use. It must have been cross threaded at some point. One failure in over 200 sets sold would suggest that this is an isolated case. The reason that I use a steel nyloc nut is to prevent it from picking up in the...

    S800 alternative props

    Not only that Jeff, it uses the same construction method. And I did also build a hexa version of the F1 as well. (less endurance). Quad is more efficient and a heli wins hands down. Interesting camera gimbal, not bad unless it's been stabilised in post. As an inspection vehicle for...

    http://www.aibotix.com/aibot-x6.html This looks like a very serious competitor to the S800

    S800 alternative props

    I would definitely recommend the Gemfan 15x4.5 wood props. At least as good as the Xoar 15x5 IMHO Foxtech FPV has them

    S800 alternative props

    These motors look like they could be an alternative worth trying http://www.himodel.com/electric/DUALSKY_XM5015TE-6MR_390KV_Outrunner_Brushless_Disk_Type_Motor_for_Multi-rotor_Short_shaft.html My adapters will fit if you want to use sensible props.
