Last evening I disconnected the motor wires and powered up the stack while connected to MKtool, everything came up clean and green with no errors so all of the electronics survived it appears! On the downside, the frame is a total loss other than the flexlander legs. Both of the centerplates are...

It is possible to use a switch but it really needs to be a 3 position switch and you only get 3 possible settings. Setting it up like I just described will give a midpoint setting and a high and low with nothing in between. Not ideal but I've done it and if you already know the settings you want...

It overrides the software setting, however you need to set it up a certain way to make sure you're not getting too much gain with it. The proper setup goes like this, pick the control you want to use for remote adjustment, a slider or knob, and center the travel after making sure it is assigned...

Haven't really seen any failsafe events, lights on RX are always solid when landing. The RX on the arm was mounted vertically before I took it off for some reason I can't recall at the moment and when I put it back on for some reason I mounted it as in the picture. I'm looking over at the...

Look closer at the picture and you'll see there is more than one satellite RX, both MK already have diversity boards installed and the video TX antenna mounting and positioning is an ongoing experiment for the best overall reception on the ground. Ken

There are a select few people that I will hand the controller to without questions, most of them are far better pilots than I am and one owns the LHS so if he wants to crash it I know it will get fixed or replaced! ;) Ken

If it does happen don't expect much more than position hold and maybe return to home, any advanced functions like waypoint will probably only be offered on the WKM, otherwise why would anyone spend at least $800 more for the Wookong... That said I'd like to have position hold on my Naza...

I pretty much always fly my Mk in vario and this was no exception. Firmware is the recent .88 version and it's set to give a slow descent on loss of signal as well as having a diversity board with multiple satellite RX attached. Here's a screen shot of the log file that shows in the blue band...

Given their past performance on producing sUAS regulations I seriously doubt they could pull anything off that quickly! That and the fact that the public would have to know about it before it could take effect, I seriously doubt it's anything other than more F.U.D. around an already murky...

Thanks, Shawn. Yeah it does suck but still not nearly as costly as if I did a pile driver with one of the gasser helis I used to fly! Provided none of the MK stack is damaged the repair cost should be around $200 or less which isn't that bad considering how it looks. I will certainly try to get...

I do, wait until a few people get a YS-X6 in their hands and the reviews start coming out. All the capabilites of the WKM for the same $ PLUS all the extra cost DJI stuff like waypoints is included in the base cost, just as MK does. I like the included wifi link that allows you to use an iPad or...

Fourth FPV flight of the day, about 66 seconds into the flight the quad starts to lose altitude despite no change in throttle setting. As soon as I realized it was going downward I increased the throttle to climb as there were some trees coming up that were starting to look awfully close in the...
