Kudos to you!! Camarillo is a heck of an air show and being just north of the mega L.A. metro area gets a lot of public exposure. The Oxnard/Ventura locale also holds a lot of L.A. political money so go for broke buddy. It would be great if some of the local talent, and I'm sure there is...

LOL, you already have Sleepy. I'm pretty good at what I do but I have issues with authority;)

Gotcha, and understand. I'm not a true fan boy yet, but what I've used has worked as advertised. There's still a ways to go before I'm fully convinced. But it has been looking good so far!

I don't think has been tried that much yet. It sounds like Dazzab did and had a bad day with one but the software is progressing in development and capability. yes, I'm on a similar path and looking to use the Pixhawk on heavy lift and large sized M/R's. I've given up any hope of using stuff...

Don't know what transmitter you are using but if it has a slider on the side of the transmitter you may have one more option still. It may be possible to assign the slider to the yaw channel while still maintaining the throttle stick as the yaw channel, in essence providing two locations to use...

Sounds like the gains need adjusted. Put your finger lightly on the camera and see if you can feel it quivering. If so work trial and error through the gains settings until you can smooth it out. Also look for anything that might be causing the gimbal to hang up, like a wire wrapped around...

Oh geez, another GS planker:) I can't say much since I'm a GS 3d aero guy and a moderator at TFC.

Regarding auto throttle compensation, I was trying out the "Drift" mode in Pixhawk this weekend and I discovered there is some level of throttle compensation present when using the flight mode. The discovery was made when changing forward thrust angles without having to adjust throttle...

No, Wookong and A2 are also guilty. i believe most all of them have occurred while in a flight mode slaved to GPS.

Dazzab, I realize I'm the FNG in this forum and you don't know me from Adam but I feel a need to say something here. You brought up some pretty good complaints in your last but you may not realize you hammered down some strong positives as well. First, I work and have worked for a long time...

Glad that worked for you. Another method if you don't want switch dependency is to use the TX exponential function to soften yaw response around center stick position. Some transmitters will also permit this for the throttle channel. If you try that you will need to use a little ore side...

Why is it everyone seems to overlook the Max Amps batteries? I understand China products are cheaper but the best battery performance I've obtained to date have been using Max Amps. Their stuff was also selected over any other to power a pretty high end UAV normally driven using a gas engine...

Check with Vulcan UAV.

Pylon races, by size class. FPV and non FPV. The best flyers usually win, not the fastest.

I must admit the Naza is probably the best FC DJI has produced. It's relatively simple in user functionality. That may mean it fails less because there's fewer functions to fail.

Have an old Naza in a Cinestar and it functions reliably, so there's reason to continue using it. Too many recent Naza and Wookong units have demonstrated issues so there's no reason to purchase more. What changed? The maker is unresponsive to inquiries and uses an inaccessible code so...

Ben, It's not this one instance that has generated the aversion to purchasing and using more DJI flight controllers. We do have a couple of Wookongs that work and have worked well for a very long time but those are never flown in a mode that slaves with GPS and they use older software versions...

Dazzab, Meantt to say this earlier. Thanks for the empathy with regards to the A2 failure. I should state that it was not unanticipated, which was why the POI mode was used with both controllers. That mode works the system pretty hard and glitches will show up quick. We bought this A2 last...

Give their help line a call and ask to talk to Vu Tran. If you don't ask you can never know. If you get Nathaly be nice. I love the sound of her voice;) I'll lay odds R. Lefebver would assist to some extent and I could try putting you in touch with the person that installed the one we...

Man, I'm sorry to hear about that, but glad I did at the same time. We'll be working through a few of these in various configs, all intended for commercial rigs of one type or another. I appreciate the head's up. We still have a couple of Wookongs and an older Naza but all are running older...
