    S800 alternative props

    I do supply Matjaz and they wont break, This was a test that I did to prove that the Secraft design has a bad flaw. Even if they did copy the same material that I use.

    This is how much material you have supporting your investment when you drill out the 6mm main shaft with a 4 mm drill. FWIW

    DJI low cost head

    I think it was some sort of joint venture with DJI I heard a figure of around 50K. If they want to get decent footage out of that Red they will have to learn how to move the camera properly.

    S800 alternative props

    We all know that the S800 has had it's problems with reliability issues, but that is not an all together unique scenario amongst all Multi rotor craft. We need to be vigilant at all times to see potential failures before they happen. I almost feel that what I am about to say is going to sound...

    Heinz I would contact DJI and explain that you never got the battery holder and ask for it.

    I think you are talking about a different product. It is called Pinpoint. Futaba have been using it for ages now and Skookum have also changed plus a few others. The gyros in a Segway are the same but they use a clever array system to create triple redundancy. They are a lot less sensitive to...

    Tau Labs OP Developers banned

    James you are the one who has done the most in my eyes and it must be a blow to all OP users. Dankers must be impossible to work with. Hope it all works out in the end.

    I think there has been a general move to Silicon Sensing gyros which seem to stand up better than Invensense in this environment.

    Skookum can save you in inverted mode bailout FWIW. I hope I don't ever need it.

    Actually Atti and GPS are not 3D modes (limit is 45deg.) only Manual can do 3D and autorotation. The switching is rather like using idle-up it just centers the mid. positions it would seem once you have it trimmed out in the hover. Nice bail out if you loose the plot far out.

    S800 alternative props

    Both of those alternatives look pretty good - don't tell DJI, it might invalidate your warranty, if such a thing still applies....

    Rob This is the latest one that is a bit lighter. The extra dampers are used to stabilise the rails as the camera IMU (WKM) has to be quite stable. The Zen needs to integrate with a stand alone WKM IMU as neither the Naza-H or the WKH will work with it. The middle dampers are actually in...

    S800 alternative props

    I got mine after I bought on the original offer price. It took a couple of months of calls to the factory. It is really an essential part of the S800 because the battery must be fixed very firmly so that it's mass aids the stabilisation. The maxamps 11,000 seems to provide the right weight to...
