DJI has a new manual out dated yesterday, I was reading through it this afternoon and started thinking about this. Some of the issues we're seeing with the large frames regardless of the ESC in use may well be due to the extra high settings on both yaw and vertical, problem is my CS is like a...

Ahhhh, my brain transposed the motor numbers without me realizing it, yes those are bigger than the AXI I have on the CS and likely need a healthy dose of juice to get them spinning! Still, if they work with a Plush I can't see why they wouldn't work with a Maytech unless they've made some...

Yes, it does. Today I had the medium size quad I built for testing at the field and it was doing the TB thing in GPS mode which is odd because so far it's been rock solid testing it at the house. A bit of cyclic stick pressure will get it to stop and keeping the pressure on will make it hold...

Don't use the Auto setting for motor timing, force it to either Low or High, that could be what the problem was. I can't see the firmware or circuitry being that different from the V1s that they wouldn't work with the AXI, I have the same motors on the CS6 and they're silky smooth on the Maytech...

I use 3S 5000 packs on mine and they're good for 16 to 18 minutes easily. I lowered the threshold on the voltage monitoring to see how far I could push it and got to 21 minutes with the same pack. Using a pair of 3S 5000 in parallel and 10 x 5 Graupner props I almost made it to 29 minutes before...

There is no adjustment other than the position of the pot. It's a 10 turn pot so you may have to give it quite a few turns before the servos stops and it's a very narrow band where it does stop. If you go by it you'll see the servo start turning in the other direction so that's something to...

A couple things you need to do, first make sure the connection between the pot and servo is solid, the roll arch will go full travel to one side if the inline connector isn't fully seated and making good contact. Second, you need to make certain the arch gear is flat and will be in contact with...

Notice in the beginning how they used a multi to do some of the filming. I wonder how many people called the PD to report it... Ken

I get the white lights on all of the large frames I've had the WKM on, nothing to worry about unless it blinks continuously. I notice it most when I'm doing more of a sport flying style, not so much when I'm flying for APV unless it's windy and the frame is getting pushed around pretty good. I...

They're Savox and the roll servo is a gear drive so there's nothing to loosen, roll is belt but not that tight. Just the nature of the beast, some digitals are noisier than others from what I've experienced and in the long run it doesn't seem to have any effect on performance or longevity so I'm...

Nothing, that's normal for a digital servo with an external pot. The tilt servo on my AV130 is loud enough to sometimes be heard in the video recording while it's in the air. One thing you should do is get an external BEC with adjustable voltage and use it to run the gimbal servos at 6 volts...

You can have #4 immediately, just click the little box that says "keep me logged in" on the screen where you have to login, it won't ask you again and it works just fine out in the field with no internet connection. I have a set of programmable Hyperions in one of my AV130 mounts, they're...

From my recent testing I've found some interesting things, the most significant being that a quad of equal size to a hex will perform far better in windy conditions than the hex will with a WKM controller. I built a quad with a motor to motor spacing of approximately 25 1/2 inches which is the...

That's the problem, the DJI just works OK on standard ESC's, not great or better than anything else and they do not seem willing to even acknowledge that there are issues with stability on larger frames. I guess their attitude isn't all that unusual, try telling MK there's a problem with their...

Boris, what's different with this set of Herc vs. what you had before? If the firmware ever gets to the point that it can deal with the output from a WKM I may be interested in a set myself. For now I've drifted back to my MK electronics until DJI gets their act together and figures out how...

I'm flying a large hex ( about 825mm) on MK right now using the following settings and getting outstanding stability even in wind where I wouldn't normally try to fly a multi. Using carbon fiber 12 x 3.8 props on AXI 2814-22 motors on 4S with an RTF weight of around 2 kilos... Gyro P 160...

I just fly it. So far the coldest I've flown a WKM in was around 20 to 22 degrees F and I couldn't see any difference in the way it flew vs warmer weather. I think the IMU makes enough heat internally that it has to be really cold before it starts doing odd things due to temperature. I worry...

I got a call from the repair shop today regarding the cost to repair my 5n that got damaged when the CineStar6 went down. I wasn't really all that surprised when the tech told me it would cost a bit over $500 US and would take 6 to 8 weeks to get the parts from Sony if I wanted to proceed with...

Normally the flight controller would stabilize the mount in both tilt and roll axis so there's nothing for you to control except for the degree of tilt on the camera platform. Since you have a Gaui 330X that isn't possible, the GU344 has no camera mount stabilization capability so you would need...

First, you're not going to find a nice compact unit that will be able to carry an FS100, for that you will need at least a CineStar if you expect the video that comes out of it to meet your expectations. There are a few smaller units that could carry a 1080P 60 FPS camera that will give you...
