I haven't tried carefree mode yet myself but it would be interesting to try. I know that I fly FPV so much now that LOS flying is actually pretty hard... hehe Especially all the orientation at a distance. I get too far away and it all looks the same to me. So unless I remember what I was doing I...

HAHAHA LOL!!! That was funny but oh so true!

I love the way my Hoverfly multi's fly but I only fly in manual mode. But I have to admit I like the size and self contained box of the DJI stuff :) The HFPro board is HUGE! I also finally got to try a CC3D from OpenPilot and while it took FOREVER to get the settings dialed in I think I do have...

No worries, I rather it be late and good than be early and buggy. Especially since I now have one of those GPS receivers! hehe :)

Doah, I'm guessing not today... Oh well, there's always tomorrow! :)

Ocean going, wow... would love to see your build!

Thanks guys, the reason I had posted about the noise was from reading over at the FPVLab site on people only getting 500m or so with their EZUHF gear. That had never happened to me before but now I have the TBS Core which appears to be the culprit a lot of times. And testing for the core lead me...

I anxiously await the arrival of the new firmware :D

That looked really good, nice setup you have there! Nice wide open spaces to fly too ;)

Hey Jeff, With just the EZUHF Rx on my noise floor is around -100db although there's a spike at 432MHz. When I power up the sport board it goes up to about -95db and when I power up the TBS core which in turn powers up the camera and ImmersionRC 5.8Ghz Vtx then it jumps to -85db to -90db but...

Hey that sounds great, glad you were able to figure out the stability issues. Never thought of the gimbal movements getting translated back to the FC and messing it up. Good catch. Sounds like it will be ready just in time for some spring camping! :D P.S. I've been messing around with a...

I just discovered this last night as I was running the frequency tester off my EZuhf Rx. The biggest culprit was my power switching regulator (TBS CORE) but I think I can fix that a little bit with a grounded tin shield (just learned about it :). The next surprise was when I powered up the ole...

Ahhh interesting, thanks kloner and Sleepyc, that definitely helps. Is the reasoning behind this for clearing the camera FOV? Are there any pitch control problems where the wingspan is shorter for pitch than it is for roll? Thanks again!

Please forgive my ignorance, I've been following this thread with some interest waiting to see exactly what an xy8 configuration is. Do you have any photos of your final finished setup?

Thanks to both Bartman and Al for a great thread. I really do enjoy seeing posts of future development even if it's something I can't have in my hands right away. Just lets us all know stuff is in the works which is very cool!

Yeah the Hoverfly Sport is the red-headed step child of the Hoverfly products. Sorry to any Red heads/step children out there ;) I love my sport boards but they've left the sport board in the dust. The firmware hasn't been updated for years? Don't even get me going on the lack of support in...

That was really cool. Do you have a gimbal on that? looked really smooth.

Looks good, seems to be pretty smooth. I have a smaller Y6 with 9" props and a Hoverfly Sport. I think it's probably one of the best setups I've had. Very stable especially in the wind. Flight time isn't the greatest but it makes up for it in stability. :)

That is EXACTLY what I had envisioned when I originally started on this. It was supposed to have a little go pro gimbal up front, folding arms inward and the upper isolation plate. I just didn't pull it off, but this is definitely it! Nice job! Too bad about the jello, maybe softer dampeners...

Zoiks! Thanks for the update. Good to know!
