    XAircraft what is that smell

    Not sure about the smell. I have opened and installed more SuperX's than I care to count and can't say I have noticed any smell like that. Great stuff though, you guys are awesome...

    XAircraft SuperX

    The SuperX flies well at speed, but acro is honestly not really what it was designed for. The SuperX is intended to for aerial photography and video with smooth and stable flight. You would be better flying a KK board or something cheap if you want to do acro stuff.

    XAircraft superx set up problem

    You need to set your throttle end points to be lower. First thing to try is to adjust your trim on your throttle channel down a few notches. The FC thinks you are not at full down throttle and wont arm because of that.

    I have a tarot 810 with the SuperX and a 2-axis brushless gimbal for my Nex and it flys like a champ.

    XAircraft Building a Super-X Quad Need Advice.

    I haven't used the Avrotos, but from the specs I would say that is a no go. Best ESCs I have used so far with the SuperX are the TMotor 400hz (or the hobbywings if you want to go on the cheap). The 11x4.7s are probably too small for that much weight and your flight times will suffer flying that...

    Show what you filmed - Post Your Video Here

    Shot this out in the California Desert last week. My first real shot at some aerial art, and man was it fun to get out in the open and stretch my FPV limits. What an amazing place.

    XAircraft SuperX

    Flying in the artic will not affect your GPS, but will potentially affect your Compass which is why it is not recommended to fly in GPS mode near the poles. That being said flying in ATT is completely fine and does not use the GPS or Compass. Keep in mind that removing your GPS will disable the...

    XAircraft SuperX new user question - motor outputs

    1) I have noticed that some props have different efficiency on the clockwise and counterclockwise blades. It is either that or you have one or more motors that are not level 2) I can usually get my vibrations down to around .3 with the occasional spike, but less than .5 seems to be acceptable...

    XAircraft What case do you use?

    I use the Pelican 1620 case, it runs about $200 on Amazon, I guess that isn't "cheap", but it sure is solid and keeps everything secure. To me a $200 investment to keep my rigs both organized and safe is worth it when you consider how much you have invested in them. It also makes it a breeze to...

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    Have you tried this and set it up like this? http://www.riot.ch/tarot-t-2d-gimbal-configuration-for-pitch-controll-on-a-dji-phantom/ That looks like a pretty comprehensive setup walkthrough. If you confirm that then I will walk you through reflashing the firmware to see if that will solve the...

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    \ When you change the values you have to hit enter for them to take. Have you tried that? Just to be sure that I understand fully, you do get some tilt just not full tilt? What radio are you using?

    XAircraft Super X install problem

    You can plug it into the 8th channel and it should work. If I recall correctly someone else had an issue where they also had to run a ground wire to that receiver to make it work so if just the signal wire doesn't work try the ground.

    XAircraft Super X on TBS Discovery

    Hey RTRyder, the issue is with the untraditional X on the Discovery, the SuperX does not seem to like it very much for some reason. XA knows about the issue and hopefully will be addressing it in the next firmware update. That being said, if you put that on a regular X it will be rock solid out...

    XAircraft SuperX

    I will second that, all of those ESC options should work fine. BTW thanks a ton Rick for all of your findings on the SBUS with the SuperX. It sure does make a clean install to have just one wire from the receiver to the I/O.

    XAircraft XA 650 Pro Battery Recommendations

    Been a while, but I have been putting that 8000 through its paces and it actually performed very well. I was getting flight times of 18+ minutes with a tarot gimbal, GoPro Hero3, and FPV equipment. With my 5800 I am getting around 15 minutes. Not sure it is really worth the extra cash and...

    Tarot 2D Brushless gimbal gains issue

    That will work just fine. In powering a device amps are a maximum rating and the important thing is volts. A device won't accept more amps than it needs, it just has to have enough amps to satisfy its needs. With voltage if you apply too much it will fry. Think about your battery, if you are...

    XAircraft 650 Pro Battery Position

    I use the included foam pad and wrap the battery tight. Adding a little velcro goes a long way!
