Lec... Quick thought, the roll servo is connected to a knob on the Tx. Change it to work from a fixed value inputted from MK tools. Z snr

Denny. When I get a chance I will get back there. They were all shot blind as the downlink battery was flat. If i can belive the weatherman the we are going from unseasonable heat to a possiblity of snow over the next few days so that might chance the feel of the pictures. Love the work your...

Hi Dave... If I was in NZ I'd be knocking on PhotoHigher's door right now, unfortunately the Tasman Sea is between me and there. I'm about 20Km from where Droidworx kicked off before they went to NZ. When I get back to the UK I think our first step will be to upgrade to 0.88 firmware, it seems...

Ok I'll have a play with that tonight. Why don't you just pop over & see PH to see it you can save on the shipping by picking one up? Lec

Lec ... Put just a GoPro, no case on the gimbal with no video downlink cables and see if it still happens. If the servo is struggling this might give it a lighter load to shift. Is it only happening after a fast yaw like in the video ? Order a Skyline anyway ! Z snr

Ok so for the past week I've been trying so solve a few issues with the Y6. I've come to to conclusion that it is this unintentional roll of the camera gimbal that annoys me most. It really has no relation to how the craft is sat but it just slowly leans to one side then corrects itself (slowly)...

Ah Rob now that does look fun. Have been in your neck of the woods the past few nights and half expected to see something up in the air. How are you finding the NEx5n? I'm guessing the shots of the harrier with the flamewheel & gopro? Lec

Thanks Ross. The fact that that tower is pumping our 2.4 Ghz really should make me think twice about flying around it. Either that or nobody in my area got a phone signal at about 7.15 this morning!

Denny. Yes were are lucky/cursed to live in such a fast moving world when it comes to technology. I do remember when you used to be excited about getting your photos back from the chemist if you really wanted to splash out you would go for the 1 hour service. Well to contradict my point here are...

Thanks for all the advice Ken. So would you suggest I try some slightly smaller props say 12 * 6 as this may reduce wobbles due to less prop loading? We have plenty of redunant power so I may try a set of these. Lec

Finally got around to doing some shooting today. still not 100% satisfied with the results but I didn't need youtube to rub it in! Lec

I have also been experiencing problems with our NEX5 via HDMI. As explained in a previous post the camera has taken it upon itself to switch to preview mode at the mere hint of a low downlink signal. This then means that shutter release won't work until you manually bring it down a reset it. I...

Some really nice shots there Denny. I am just making the most of the unseasonable weather we are having here at the moment. A few from today. Lec

Just looking at the props on our Droidwork HL Y6 (torxpower motors) We are running APC 13,6.5. just wondering if anyone has had any other experience with different sizes / brands before I order some more of the same? Lec

Oh and to top it all off what a horrible website..not to mention he seems to have one of those 1 litre blue lasers, now that is some snazzy technology! Also he should probably read this before going to show 'law enforcement'...

I will be honest with you Dave that mine is flying like a bag of bones at the moment. I am spending my evenings trying different parameters out but it just doesn't seem to want to play ball. It is controllable but not what you would call precise & the gimbal isn't behaving either so I'm...

We have our Av130 fitted to the Y6. I have noticed that during flight the horizon drifts alot. doing a few tests on the bench at home I have found that when tilted towards the the left (shortest travel side) it returns to level immediately once the craft is level. However when I do the same...

hi guys we are using a Sony NEX 5 with a HDMI converter. recently the camera has started to switch from the live camera view to the review screen basically making it impossible to take any images as the gendled does not activate the camera when it is in review mode. It seems to happen when the...

gutted for you Shawn. I had a vary similar experience around 12 months ago when I was showing how far away my MK Hexa could go to friends. Needless to say it soon went a long way away. Days of searching in the overgrown scrubland proved fruitless however it turned up 10 days later over 3 miles...

Looks like we made the right decision to buy the AV130. Hopefully this will mean no more dependency on the MK tilt/roll control which has never quite got there. Intrigued as to the need for an extra receiver, for tilt control only?, perhaps it will be possible to hijack one of the MK servo...
