So here are the details: As you guys prob would, I went out almost every afternoon trying to spot the hex. Having 2 grand hanging in a tree wasn't getting it done for me. I went to the coordinates Google Earth and DJI Ground Station showed using my smartphone. After stammering around for 5...

Hey guys as of 5:23 PM EST my bird was recovered. It doesn't have as much as a scratch on it. Lipo (Turnigy Nano Tech 4S 5000 MAh) was laying 3 feet from the hex. We had 45 MPH winds over the weekend that no doubt blew it loose. Hard to believe that its in perfect condition.

Sorry guys- went looking for the F550 again. No luck. It's got to be way up in the trees. I was flying in GPS mode, not Point and Click. No camera or video gear on board. That didn't fly on this trip. I hope it stays dry the next few weeks. T8FG Super TX

Thanks kloner... I'm afraid I won't be able to see it until all the leaves fall which is 3 weeks from now. Not sure how salvageable anything will be after that.

Wigged out= fly off. The hex turned 30 degrees, ascended and headed out just over the tree line. Same speed it would operate as if in "click and go mode". I'm not sure if we see that turn to the south as a result of hitting a high tree limb and bouncing off or what, but that's all I can...

Ergo another issue with the Ground Station software. How accurate is it?

I went out to the site and did the Andorid GPS thing. I'm certain I'm within the proper crash area, I just cant see anything due to the leaves. Property owner game me permission to recover and harvest tree if needed. Just can't see the damn thing.

Switch position was not modified, and I was flying in GPS mode. TX (Futaba T8FG Super) was mid-stick. Hex was hovering at 10 meters just west of the landing site. I was attempting to visually inspect the lady when she flipped out. Battery voltage was 15.1-15.4v. at flyoff.

Hey all- Have an F550 with Wookong M and 2.4GHz Data Link. The unit flew off last night and I can't seem to locate it based on data from the DJI Ground Station Software. I assume it's in a tree based on the fact that last communication came in at 16.4 meters at a constant 45% angle. I will...
