Ok here's exactly what happened today. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8vHTFpxT-U

http://www.infmetry.com/toys/diy/dji-wookong-multi-rotor-stabilization-controller Just found this. infmetry sells everything from mouse pads with bacon and eggs to plastic bobbly boob dolls to Xaircraft to DJI??? WTF. The red flag I see here is that the factories that sell this cheap...

they might be fighting words but I also may be joining the dark side of the force here pretty soon if I can't get some airtime. Wait, maybe I already am on the dark side of the force. I still want to know if DJI is affiliated with Xaircraft.

i will check the yaw. But even giving it no input it just torques over before even leaving the ground. I have video if that helps. I'm just glad my Phantom HD didnt crash with it. Kidding, I always wanted to say I had one. as for solder failures, anything is possible, but that sounds more...

Ok, so I did my first official test flight today. there was nothing "flight" about it though. As i felt on the ground while holding the unit, it definitely swings hard to the right. I can visually see the right motor slowing down to near nothing. I might assume the esc or motor was bad but...

That's exactly how i did it and it worked fine.

Yeah I get it now. but why on earth would the user manual not have a listing under remote in the index? Silly. the one linked above does. All the remote stuff aside, I have to say I am really happy with this camera. I am heading to Hawaii in 2 weeks and this will be the perfect travel...

This is not in my manual that came with the nex5n. Actually nothing is in the index under remote at all. You can shoot using the SHUTTER and 2SEC (the shutter is released after two seconds) buttons on the RMT-DSLR1 Wireless Remote Commander (sold separately). Also, refer to the operating...

I'm pretty sure my warranty would go void if I did that. :)

Jeff, being familiar with the Nex5n, is there a trick to getting the gentled to work with the camera? I get no response yet I can see the IR looking through a normal digital camera.

pretty sure they are 3.5 mm bullet. They have them at MontoRc and Hobbyking. http://montorc.com/gold353pairs.aspx edit: It was my Maytech that had the 3.5mm bullets. Sorry. I see my turnigy does indeed have pre-tined wires.

I got this Gentled and I can get it to trigger as i can see with a digital camera. But I cant get my Sony Nex5n to respond. I have looked high and low through the menus for an activate IR/remote option and I see nothing. What's the secret here?

that hurt man. low blow. :)

I vote to ban Chris from this site for posting that. :) kidding.

As multi's seem to require you set your radio up in ACRO mode, i wonder if these radios will allow all the switches to be assigned. It is a heli radio. I haven't found any success in assigning the aux channels. I would like the aux 2 throttle hold to be my shutter and the 2 trim sliders on...

I AM DEFINITELY WEARING EYE PROTECTION. i still have a split finger wound from a prop accident as a kid. Remember those solid nylon master airscrew props? yeah. So far the best test stand is the gimbal on a tripod idea. i may try that when i have time. I think the idea of weighing it...

I bought a bag of chinese deans connectors thinking there was no difference. But when i went to solder them i realized the difference! On real Dean's connectors the plastics can hold up to the heat of soldering them without melting. The chinese plastic instantly melts and as the tab holds a...

before i let my new bird fly free I have been slowly making sure everything is as good as I can get it. There is one thing that keeps me from feeling confident though. When I hold the unit down in the middle with relatively even force, the craft wants to lift evenly but then has a very strong...

I'm impressed you can even fly and land in that wind. I wouldnt even take my multi outside in more than 5mph!

This would make more sense with an analog trim. but with digital, then you would have to wait for it to beep all the way back to center. As an alternative try setting your Rudder D/R second setting to a really low number like 20 or 30. i have my radio set up with D/R 0 at 85% -15 exp. D/R 1...
