    +1. Do you fancy weighing your setup when you are done Mr Ed? :nevreness:

    Dude!!! Always do compass calibration outside away from structures and metal stuff. It also mentions having full GPS lock, but that is not entirely necessary in my opinion, but it can't hurt. Hope you sort it mate! :nevreness:

    Hmm, weird. Do you wait for full GPS lock before doing the calibration? Which MR are you flying? Anything changed with the motors (mounting angle or anything)?

    The ALL New DJI S900 Hexacopter!

    Welcome to my world! I also use heading hold mode as it is rock solid, but I have to be ever vigilant of the bloody skids. I have pushed the rods as far back as they go to keep the lower part of the skids out the way which gives me a good 140° movement. But yes, it's a constant battle.:dread: I...

    If I can keep my S800 and Z15 under 7kg, so can you. No retracts and good quality but lightweight lipos help a lot. The S900 is 700g heavier than my S800 (from the specs, not in real life) so for me that would be losing one lipo, I could fly for almost 4 minutes with that!?! :nevreness: It will...

    Sub 7kg with Movi M5

    Fair enough. But in aviation the definition of weight is a bit more complex by the looks of it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_gross_weight It seems people still get confused by the 'weight less fuel' comment in the ANO. It has no bearing on electric aircraft as our machines don't...

    I am jealous! :nevreness: Are the props plastic?

    Sub 7kg with Movi M5

    Well, there's got to be a limit. Why is the motorway speed limit 70mph? I'm sure it was from an analysis of mass and acceleration and the impact on a human body. If we push the 7kg thing too much they'll take that away too.

    It says S900 and WKM in your shopping cart at the top.

    You are reading it wrong. It's £2,500. My Zenmuse GH2 was the same price when I bought it 18 months ago, oh how things have changed!!!
