    Zephyr 2, EZUHF, OSD, 2.4 Ghz vtx. best antennas, never flown.

    The latest is that I decided to gut the wing and transfer the EZUHF and vtx to a heli. So I am selling the wing,servos, motor,esc,folding prop and covering. Would like to get $300. I also have the EZ OSD separately $140.

    Hoverfly Hoverfly Gimbal Controller?

    I do have to say that for some reason my hovergimbal/av200 has worked amazingly well right out of the box. I just stuck some double stick tape to the side of the frame and did some checks in the software but it works MUCH better than what Hoverfly's demo video shows. I was actually surprised...

    Hoverfly New Hoverfly PRO Firmware v4.6

    Ah, good to know about the arming, thanks for clarifying. My antenna is on the arm as far as the longest wire included will go. I love you guys but I have to say all these fixes that we are supposed to go hunt down from other places makes this a "science project." If it needs a 15cm cable it...

    Hoverfly New Hoverfly PRO Firmware v4.6

    I was having trouble loading the page on my iPhone. I see now. Looks like a real science project! So much for keeping the Heli looking "pro". It looks like I have to take the GPS board off then since the Hoverfly pro won't arm without the GPS initializing. Hmm. My biggest caveat with the GPS is...

    Hoverfly New Hoverfly PRO Firmware v4.6

    Wouldn't this feature require that the mag issues be sorted out first? I'm feeling a little left out of the loop here. Is the external mag out yet? How would the carefree mode work if the position hold is off by 30-40' on my Heli? I know everyone has varying results with the gps hold but this...

    Hoverfly Hoverfly Gimbal Controller?

    Can you give us the part # and where you got it? I had someone come by the shop the other day and just decide to grab my Heli by the gimbal to feel how heavy it was without asking first. He grabbed right where the gps board was. I still don't understand the thinking behind leaving out a nice...

    Hoverfly Hoverfly GPS

    The compass should really go on the mast ???? Isn't it built into the GPS board? Did the external mag get released already?

    New rescue system for Multirotors

    Why would a powered paraglider need a reserve? I could see the real ones but rc? It's fun to see these as i used to make powered paragliders 14 years ago.

    LiPo Battery Retailer recommendation

    I've never used anything but gens Ace from Hobbypartz. They are often out of a lot of them but I grab a bunch when they are in stock.

    Hoverfly X-8 survives loss of one prop... No problem

    Great to know! But did you break a prop or did the motor just stop? Not that it matters for redundancy but just curious as normally a prop breaks and others go around it.

    New rescue system for Multirotors

    I was thinking if a multi lands upside down it would do the least damage to your gimbal/camera. So if the chute attached to the bottom and had a mercury switch to activate it that it might work. Just dont flip your heli upside down otherwise :) may an arming switch to prevent false triggers...

    Anyone know the distance of the Roku?

    I just noticed that the Roku2 has a HDMI adapter that transmits to the tv. Could this be the answer to hdmi cameras for short distance flights? It says it is Wifi...

    Very smooth. You must have hired someone with a Zenmuse and some real flying skills right? :)

    What the H*** am I DOING here?!...

    Kloner, when's your birthday? I'm gonna buy you a new "r" key. :) Welcome to the forum Ron. There's nothing but genies in bottles on here so let the questions fire away. IMO, a simulator is great for the initial getting the feel of things. The thing that will make you a better pilot is...

    What companies have POI?

    I think DJI's version just loiters around a fixed point. I want like MK where it has a module that the heli fixes to no matter where it goes.

    What companies have POI?

    Other than MK who else has point of interest? I am working with a well funded nautical engineering firm that asked me what was available. Apparently they have access to very high end government level controllers but the POI is not developed. thanks Yuri

    Hi, I'm a professional photographer want a multicopter for aerial photography

    If you tethered the heli to the bottom of the blimp you would have full safety of the heli at all times. The blimp could be a full time "parachute." The heli would allow more versatile movements. Take that FAA!
