I had full gps lock at the time I was flying Yesterday. I have also just checked the area I was in with a predictor and it tells me I should have had 9 satellites, so in this situation I don't think it was a satellite issue. The more I think about it the more it makes sense that I have more work...

Thanks rwijnhov ! Am going to order some 4s batteries and address my props.

Great ! My confidence in the system is coming back. I really need to figure out my gains, battery and props. Might try and get some 4s for testing. If I can achieve that level of GPS hold I'll be very happy ! Did you do a lot of gain adjusting to get the GPS position hold to that level ?

rwijnhov, I might look at going 4S but to be honest if I can find a solution using 3s I' be happier. I only have 3S here. How does your GPS mode behave in the wind ?

Gunter, Thanks for the information. I will look further into the APC's. @ Rwijn and Droider. Thanks guys, this gives me hope. The results in both videos are much better than I had Yesterday. I obviously need to figure out my gains. It's just that Yesterdays tweaking didn't produce any noticeable...

Thanks Vislaw. I'll check them out. IrisAerial, I really hope DJI do take this on. Not being able to fly in a 12 mph wind is a big problem in Ireland :) The air is rarely still !

Thanks Gunter. The props I'm using are the cheap Arducopter ones. I have looked all over for graupners and can't find any in Europe. I might try the APC. Do you know of any European suppliers ? Also what APC size would you recommend ? Cheers. Eoin

Hi Gunter, I'm using 10x4.5 props with the jdrones 880Kv motors.

Thanks for answering guys. I wonder if DJI have any firmware upgrades in the works or is this as good as it is going to get. Have been looking at the Zenmuse, considering a pre-order but if I can't get a stable platform in this sort of wind it's a deal breaker. I have seen mikrokopters flying...

Hi all, Have just returned from flying my Wookong on an F450. The wind was blowing a steady 12mph with gusts up to 14-16 mph. I must say that the results were less than spectacular :( It was really fighting the wind and doing a huge amount of twitching. Can anybody advise me on how to tune the...

Hi all, Went down to friends place in the mountains today to really try and give my Wookong (mounted on an F450 frame) some space. I couldn't be happier with the results. It flew like a dream. Failsafe worked perfectly 3 times in a row, the furthest it landed from it's take off position was 5...

Hi Elliott, It's working fine for me here. Might have been a temporary problem. Regards Eoin

Hi all, I see there is a lot of talk in the last few hours about props. I'm posting this in a new thread so as not to hijack anybody else's thread. Does anybody know of anywhere in Europe where I can purchase Graupner 10x5 props ? I've been searching for weeks and just can't find any. Graupner...

My vibration problems are caused by my props. I'm still using cheap plastic unbalanced ones. I can't find Graupner 10x5 props in the entire of Europe. I've been looking for weeks. The gimble I was using was the jDrones one which, while working in theory, I don't think could ever be made...
