I have one of the original pre- S model Gaui 330X that I still fly occasionally. Quite wobbly at times if there's any amount of wind blowing but still fun to buzz around in the backyard. This Gaui has been through a number of incarnations, at one point it hosted a KK flight controller and a set...

So how does one distingush this flashing white light from the one that randomly appears for no reason at all? ;) Ken

Only things I changed on the new ESCs was to set the battery type to NiMH, the cutoff voltage to low, and also the timing mode to low since the Pulso were clicking away pretty good on medium. Didn't really make any difference in the clicking going from medium to low, I'll try high to see if that...

I do have separate battery to power the video TX, what I don't have is good shielding on the cables. Other thing I noticed is both the power and video cables attach to the TX with molex type connectors, maybe eliminating the connectors and soldering the inputs directly to the board would help...

I've seen the same thing with the WKM on my AD6, the counterclockwise motors seem to be at a different speed than the clockwise motors when its sitting propless on the bench and they also stop before the clockwise motors. Props on outside I don't really notice it as much if at all, but is...

A quick update, new ESCs arrived and have been installed, the WKM/AD6 has now done a few test flights and I'm quite happy with the performance so far. What I'm seeing as I'm getting the gains dialed in is that it wants 10 inch props with just the basic lightweight airframe! Using the Graupner 11...

Sure, send me your WKM multi to use making the vid and I'll do it... ;) Ken

A small FPV cam mounted on the camera platform, the view isn't exactly the same as the main camera but close enough. To do live video feed with a NEX 5N requires mounting a large HDMI to AV converter along with the FPV TX, the FPV gear by itself is smaller and lighter and I don't find the minor...

DJI WKM flight controller on a customized frame, comes only as an RTF for a base price of approximately $3900 and up depending on options. Ken

"Autopilot" = mis-translated Chinese term for flight controller "Auto level failsafe" = Autolevel mode will keep the quad level even if you don't know how to fly "Low voltage protection" = a feature you can turn off but when activated it will flash the LED as a warning on first stage, and...

It may not be what it sounds like though, I haven't had a chance to read the manual yet to see if it really is what MK calls carefree mode. It sounds like it from the short description in what's new but it could have lost (or gained) something in the translation from Mandarin to English! Ken

Have you gotten the new serial number to activate it yet? It needs to be activated before it can be used, you should contact the dealer you bought it from with the hardware ID from your WKM and they will get the new serial # from DJI. Once you install the new serial # you will see the functions...

At the moment OpenPilot has nothing similar to what Mk can do. They have not yet released their equivalent flight controller with GPS to the public, only the CC board which is just a basic flight controller with no GPS capability. DJI has just released multiple waypoint flight for the...

Owning versions of both here's my take, the Mk frames work well for the original medium size kits they built. I have an MK Hexa V1 that I keep in a pretty much box stock configuration. It does everything it is capable of very well, including flying a GoPro on it's basic 2 axis camera mount. Fun...

I have two that I use for stills, a small Canon SX 200, and a Sony Nex 5N. The Canon uses CHDK with an intervalometer script that will take shots at whatever I set for the interval and for as many shots as I want, all configurable parameters. Kind of a spray and pray method but since digital...

Just doing some gain changes on the AD6 and the updsate message popped up, version 5.0 for WKM is avalable for download. According to thge documentation here's what's new... What’s new?  Intelligent Orientation Control: Yaw Lock; Home Lock.  Open multi waypoints flight right by S/N...

No, gains have no effect on GPS lock times. This WKM has previously taken a couple minutes to get GPS lock, now it's locking in a minute or less, layout of components is not much different than it was on the other frame, no clue why all of a sudden WKM GPS works almost as good as my MKs...

The quad should be fine. I put it on a shelf under one of the heating ducts, should probably put a battery on it and try it out today. Pretty simple setup, KK board with 4 ESCs and motors, other than water getting under the shrinkwrap on the ESCs not much else to worry about, a little WD40 in...

It didn't improve performance as much as it smoothed out the response, didn't have enough flight time to really be able to compare video done before and after, that was what I had hoped to do the day it crashed. How much I miss it depends on how well the Maytechs work once I get them...

What are the little white balls for? I like the concept, looks like something I could work up myself on the machine tools in the garage given the right bits to start with. Might have to take a trip to the local camera shop soon and see what I can find that might be adapted to work, something...
