    I am afraid to maiden my new S800 EVO

    Follow the manual. I hang my S800 ready to fly from a motor to a door frame. Then I draw a line from the motor to the center of the craft. That is my COG.

    Phantom 2 Vision vs GoPro3+ camera

    The Vision only has stabilization for tilt not for roll. The H3-2D has both. The quality of video out on the gimbal is better with the H3-2D. If you have some good post editing tools the Vision will give you what you need. Check this video from Aerial Media Pros:

    Phantom 2 Vision vs GoPro3+ camera

    The GP3H will give you more options for use outside the copter. The Vision will get you flying and taking video rather than building a trying to figure out configurations. If you want to use the GP3H, I would get a F450 with Naza 2, iOSD mini, H3-2D gimbal, video downlink, and monitor for the...

    DJI A2 problem

    The first A2 that I received would not allow me to calibrate the compass. I got it replaced and the new one works great. I could contact your dealer and ask for a replacement.

    DJI A2 problem

    The A2 is very sensitive to the can bus connections. Follow the manual exactly. If not it will not perform. Can 1 and Can 2 are different and at different speeds. When they say connect this way they are not kidding. Do it or fail.

    Solid firmware for waypoint with wookong???

    I am using the latest and greatest with the 2.4gHz data link. It also works with my older 900mHz data link. I will say that I am using the A2. I would try to see if the WKM will work with the new Data Link. If not you will have to upgrade. If you have a iOS device, I would try the app with...

    Question about fail safe and signal loss

    No I have several of the AR71xx series with satellites that support preset failsafe and they are not that expensive.

    Question about fail safe and signal loss

    Just an FYI, how much would it cost you if you lost your quad? Compare that to the cost of a Rx that supports preset failsafe. Your choice.

    DJI Phantom 2 Vision---25min Flight Time

    Compare the number of users of APM vs the number of DJI users. Yes the fails will be greater, but as a percentage, I don't think so.

    DJI Phantom 2 Vision---25min Flight Time

    Thanks Denny! When I fly over water I do not want to loose my copter. That is exactly what you are talking about. I want something that just works, verses a work in progress.

    Question about fail safe and signal loss

    Your Rx does not support preset failsafe. You need to upgrade to one that does. That way if you loose Tx signal it will come back to you rather than flying away or just hovering until it lands.

    DJI Phantom 2 Vision---25min Flight Time

    That is fine. I have no issues with individual choice. You and your clients are part of the 20% that claw for a place in the market. I can build a DJI quad and have it flying in 30 minutes. I use default settings and it works. Those that choose to fly other platforms are exercising their...

    DJI Phantom 2 Vision---25min Flight Time

    I have owned them all. The Zero UAV was a science project gone bad. They were not up front that you had to jail break your phone to make it work. OP is dependent on a group of dedicated volunteers to make the project work. It will eventually happen but my patience is not that long. Pretty...

    DJI Phantom 2 Vision---25min Flight Time

    I disagree with your premiss. DJI has made a lot of progress since the original Phantom. I think that their quality of construction is great. What are you comparing it to? I do agree that they need to continue to improve their customer service. They relied on their dealers to be the first...

    DJI Phantom 2 Vision---25min Flight Time

    The motors look the same as the standard issue Phantom. The props are definitely different. That leaves the battery.

    DJI Phantom 2 Vision---25min Flight Time

    All I can say that it works. You can speculate about future uses, but now as configured no worries. I don't fly mine behind trees and other stuff. If guys do, then it is their craft not mine. I cannot make excuses for those that do not read the manual. Not my problem.
