    Autopilot Gains

    Pretty much my feeling, ..., however, my anticipation often doesn't match with DJI's implementation ;-)

    Autopilot Gains

    I'm about to fine tune my autopilot gains. Current settings for my 6 kg AD-8 are: 240/240/200/200 - 220/220 (Pitch/Roll/Yaw/Vertical - Atti Pitch/Atti Roll). My AD-8 flies pretty well, apart from a slight roll/pitch oscillation (~1-2 Hz) while moving in Atti or GPS/Atti mode. I read the...

    Help. Can't get Atti mode into forced failsafe

    I think that's not ok. If true FS is activated (e.g. by switching off the transmitter), throttle of 54% should be fine, I assume. But throttle <10% while in "fake" FS flight-mode seems to be a bad idea, if I read the WKM manual carefully. I would try to fix that by a flight-mode specific...

    Cannot get WK ground station 4.0.6 to work. The connect button is always greyed out.

    And ... connect the right end, the one which comes from the data link. The other end (alone) doesn't work with me - cannot connect ...

    POI problems

    When I tried the first time it didn't work either, the next time it suddenly did work as advertised. You already do it correctly, I think: - when setting the POI, the green light must flash a couple of times - when switching to POI mode, the copter must turn (yaw) towards the POI - then you can...

    DJI Ground Station - missing(?) features

    Q2. Solved. R/C: Switch back to GPS-Atti mode; GS: press PAUSE, then KEYBOARD MODE, then CONTINUE - that's it.

    Needing clarification on WKM Waypoint c/w datalink

    That's strange. I'm using 4s batteries and the voltage in GS exactly matches the one in my (standalone) battery monitoring/telemetry system. If I remember right, there are actually two voltages, one in the bottom line (footer) and a second one in the fancy yellow-bordered widgets which can be...

    WKM / Ground Station Poll

    I completely agree. WKM is working pretty well and GS is usable. However, speaking for GS the price tag is really high. DJI could invest $1000 (or donate a GS), they would esily find an English speaking MR pilot who would be able to enhance the readability of their manual/Wiki tremendously. They...

    A couple of ground station questions

    POI is a R/C-contolled mode, as PeterLester mentions. It has nothing to do with GS, this mode is ignored in (GS) waypoint mode. BTW: You first have to hover over your POI, then record it (the POI), then fly away (at least 10m?), now you're able to fly around this POI. As a standalone WKM...

    A couple of ground station questions

    Just be aware of the fact that while flying from one to another waypoint, you cannot adjust the direction of your MR (yaw). It always flies head-on (nose to the front). You cannot control yaw manually during waypoint flight too, a real issue if you want to do videos and you don't have a 3-axis...

    Needing clarification on WKM Waypoint c/w datalink

    I honestly don't know but I think I read that somewhere. I think the manual states that you have to switch to manual in order to get back (R/C) control. In fact you can also switch to Atti mode, it has the same effect. A brief switch to Atti and back to GPS Atti (you probably want to be in...

    WKM 5.18 Firmware update available

    I think that WKM is pretty smart in respect to autolanding. Because of the barometric drift, it descends very slowly the "last" 10 meters (instead of just the last 1 meter). And it will not turn off the motors until it touches the ground. I don't know the details, but I assume that the touch...

    WKM 5.18 Firmware update available

    Altitude and height (above Ground) is one of the most confusing issues in GS. I cannot understand why they make it that complicated. If you once forget to set altitude offset, you end up in misery. In the MK world I never had any problems with height, it was always height above ground / launch...

    DJI iOSD Released Software

    I guess "we three" had iOSD V1 devices and yesterday upgarding to 1.06 (1.08 resp.) didn't work. DJI obviously fixed things meanwhile and now it does work at least for me / for us.

    DJI Ground Station

    I'm using GS on my MacBook Pro, under Parallels running Windows 7. Quicktime on a Mac has the ability to record the screen content as well as audio. That turned out to be an excellent recording of what happended on GS and in front. If I'm testing several scenarios, "I'm speaking to my Mac"...

    DJI iOSD Released Software

    Sounds like magic. Maybe (yesterday) it actually did some kind of upgrade into a intermediate version from where there is an official upgarde path (you took today)... I'll give it a try, thanks a lot for the news.

    Congratulations. And what did you do differently from what the video shows?

    Needing clarification on WKM Waypoint c/w datalink

    I strongly advise you to use always use the R/C, even if would be technically feasible to not use it. If GS or your computer crashes (yes, this happended to me already), with your R/C you always have a safe way of controlling your MR. With a single flip of a switch (Autopilot/GPS Atti -> Atti or...
