    Hoverfly yaw problems again?

    Iris - which firmware version are you using? Some of the Beta versions do not have the PRO logging feature enabled. If you are using one of the Betas, it is possible that PRO simply has nothing to dump to the file. (Note that in full releases, this feature should work as expected.)

    Hoverfly Mikrokopter vs. HoverflyPro

    Hi Breezemont, Situations like yours are exactly why Al brought me on-board with the team in November. Not to toot my own horn, but since the addition of a dedicated customer service system, our response time (esp. to warranty-covered situations) is greatly improved. That's not to say there...

    Blade mQx -What a Hoot

    It's hard to beat a Blade for value as a fun quad/trainer. Great minds think alike, Bison: we actually include them with our larger RTF models so that new customers can get a handle on the basics before putting a $10k-$20k hexa or octo in the air. Pity about the Rangers, though. :dread:

    Hoverfly Mikrokopter vs. HoverflyPro

    "Two years" is way off with regard to HoverflyGPS development. Waypoint navigation is on-track for release as part of a firmware update later this year. It's still in development so unfortunately I can't set a target release date yet. As with all of our firmware updates, there will be no...

    Hoverfly HoverFlyPro OSD, GPS, video transmitter, radio transmitter

    Ron, Your antenna layout will work, although the receiver antenna doesn't necessarily need to be so far out on the boom. Motor-to-motor distance should always be the longest measurement, so it would be the distance between opposite motors on a quadcopter. With regards to the boom length...

    Hoverfly Hoverfly at SEFF

    Hey all, I apologize for the relative absence the past week. We had part of the team at NAB last week and now we're making final preparations to leave for the Southeastern Electric Flight Festival in Americus, GA tomorrow, so it's been a little hectic. I'll be trying to keep up with the Support...

    Nab...

    As long as you're going back into the fray (and for anyone else who may be there), check out the Teradek booth, where Al and Stacey are representing Hoverfly. They should have a SCRIPTA on display there as well as some demo reel.

    Hoverfly HFP + GPS using Herkules II v4 ESC board - first attempt

    First, of course, a belated happy birthday to you! Secondly, I really wish I'd seen this thread a few days ago. I think it's great that you're experimenting with what you've got, and I look forward to the results if you are successful. HOWEVER, I do want to remind anyone else reading along...

    Hoverfly XY8 with Hoverfly Pro, first flight

    I'm glad to hear you're having such a positive experience with the HoverflyPRO, Bart. One thing I do want to address is the geometry of your build. The HoverflyPRO is scaleable and can thus tolerate a little assymetry, but the mode geometry isn't really designed for "Spider" frames. Please be...

    Who's going to NAB?

    Hoverfly will be there, sharing booth space with Teradek. If you go, be sure to stop in and say hello to Al!

    Hoverfly GPS Failsafe - Feature Request

    As a mailman, I would suggest that you check with the dead mail department for some of the boards that the USPS has lost over the past year... There is a reason that we automatically upgrade overseas shipments to DHL International now!
