Hey Bart and Old Man, Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I have already spent a bunch of time moving things all over the place. I can reduce the effect considerably but can't get rid of it. The weird thing is that it isn't actually impacting the internal compass, only the external. I have even...

Discovered an interesting but disconcerting interference issue recently after adding a 1.2 GHz video transmitter to my hexacopter mapping rig. You can see my build here. I have a Garmin Astro 220 dog tracker (transmits in the 151-154 MHz range) on the copter that I have in case of a fly away. I...

Yes it is.

Thanks bfretless! And thanks for helping promote our work! Wouter, you should message him through the site maybe.

I can vouch for Wouter as a trustworthy buyer and I'm the one who directed him to this offer. I work with Wouter on this project: http://multirotorforums.com/threads/drones-for-ecology-and-conservation-over-ecuador%E2%80%99s-pacific-equatorial-forest.23343/ We are trying to make a difference...

@ramdmc - I am using dual GPS's, one is M8N from CSG and the other is a NEO -7m. I originally had two cheap M8N's on this (might have been 7M's?) and definitely experienced the wandering behavior. My understanding is it's not trying to correct for the difference, it's switching from one GPS to...

Not sure if you have seen the blog post by Chris Anderson over on DIYD about this topic? But he clearly states, "In particular, we will continue to offer Pixhawk-compatible autopilots, with improved versions designed in cooperation with partners. And autopilots continue to be a core focus of...

Is this test done using an InfinityMR gimbal?

Pretty good article - http://www.suasnews.com/2015/10/39367/five-skills-you-need-to-succeed-in-the-commercial-drone-market/

Don't be worried about autotune with AC 3.3 and the big copters. I'm not flying KDE ESC's but I just finished tuning a hex at AUW ~15 pounds. No problem and autotune of yaw is incredible. Tame the tune down with AUTOTUNE_AGGR parameter (I used 0.08) and then smooth out flight characteristics...

Do you know what the weight of the FLIR vs. the GoPro is? If they are very similar then I bet you could modify a good GoPro gimbal with some 3-d printed pieces to work with the FLIR.

The FLIR is not a big camera - this looks nice: http://www.globe-flight.de/Dual-brushless-gimbal-for-FLIR-Tau-336-and-GoPro-Hero-3-4

Sold!

https://archive.org/index.php is a great resource to grab old/historic material from websites in case it disappears. That way you can show a rough timeline of when it went online and when (if) they pulled it.

I see Jakub is offline so I grabbed the info below from a post awhile back. Hopefully Jakub will chime in if any of this has changed. Just a quick reminder about InfinityMR-S: 1. Supported cameras: up. 800g (max. width 120mm; max hight: 80mm). You can still use HDMI port even if your camera is...

It's taken me a bit to get back in the air with this copter after the tree crash due to IMU failure. 3DR confirmed it was an IMU failure and after some back and forth did send me a new Pixhawk. Good on them. Since I had it torn down I decided to do some modifications. 1) I went from 485mm arms...

How exactly do the tube clamps work? They look like they just slip over. Also, do they fit 155mm rail spread? Lastly, how much and when will it be available to order on the site? Looks great! Any chance we can get some sample video from those beta testers?

Some interesting observations I've pulled from their material with pricing. 1. My guess is the motors are or similar to the U10's. (~$330/ea x 8 = $2640) 2. They must be running those 5s batteries in series to create 10s voltage. (TATTU 10000mAh 5s 25c Lipo Battery, ~$220/ea x 4 = $880) 3. In...

There is a little bracket if you look closely but it's not much. Brace yourself: http://www.d9solutions.com/apps/webstore/

They have worked well for me. Hope I haven't jinxed myself talking it up...
