    Wookong M compass will not calibrate correctly.

    Why hello stranger! So, as Carapau said, go a bit quicker. I would pick up the heli as soon as you enter calibration mode and spin it around with you at the centre, same with the vertical. Have you changed the compass/IMU position measurements in the assistant at all? Or changed anything at...

    CAA Information Notice - Future requirement for a safety case assessment

    Howdy Simon, Hmmm, difficult question. Yes, I would buy it again. I don't have the EVO, just an original S800. With the EVO I imagine you would need a single lipo setup to keep it under 7kg which means shortish flight times of probably around 6 minutes? I really like the look of the Vulcan...

    S1000 with A2 in Greenland - Satellite reception concerns!?

    GPS reception will be probably be fine. It's only in the arctic circle itself where problems may exist. It would be the compass that would be affected rather than the GPS in any case. Lipos will fly for less time in cold temperatures so just knock 30%ish off your usual flight times to be safe...

    Recommend a charging station for me!

    Great! I got the 3000W 48V one which is humming away next to me now. Only works with the iCharger 4010 DUO since it's 48V. It's a thing of beauty! (although it's as long as my entire arm!)

    Headed to London, wanting to fly...

    This is what the airspace over london looks like. You can imagine that the Houses of Parliament are right in the middle of all those overlapping red things...

    Headed to London, wanting to fly...

    It's mixed to be honest. People don't mind and we don't have the negative attitude towards 'drones' that the US has been struck by. Don't fly over the Thames! The port authority has said no drones over the Thames. Don't fly in central London, big no no unless you have permission or a license...

    Wookong M GPS Mode - Fair Warning

    Before that everyone was saying stick with 5.16, but that doesn't have the motor out algorithm. There are so few reports of WKM going crazy and you have to consider pilot error. I think many people think it should fly forever without any problems. There will be problems along the way, that's the...

    Installed H33D gimbal and it glitches when my TX is turned on

    Oh, here's a thought. Have you tried using a different channel for the gimbal control or a different switch on your transmitter? I'm thinking a dirty pot or something.

    Issue with altitude hold at mid throttle

    Seems strange to me. It should hover with the sticks centred. Keep experimenting and see what happens.

    Wookong M GPS Mode - Fair Warning

    What do you mean 'major issues with the WKM?' It is a very reliable and popular system. I personally wouldn't use anything else. A large proportion of commercial operators in the UK use WKM without incident. I highly recommend firmware 5.26. Has all the added failsafes and algorithms in...

    Phantom 2 with Hd-3D gimbal Gopro 3, come in

    It's common with a quad in forward flight. Fly slowly forwards or look down a bit. Flying backwards and sideways should be fine. It will be worse in windy conditions.

    Wookong M GPS Mode - Fair Warning

    Hi mate, Sorry for your loss. We have similar stories. I have also been flying my rig for 1.5 years. I had a similar incident to you, it didn't result in a crash though. I was flying in a very congested area near large metallic structures and I noticed the rig went into ATTI mode at the end of...

    Thanks Bartman, all working now!

    Finally a fly away for me

    And why's it DJI's fault? Did you build and set it up yourself?

    Installed H33D gimbal and it glitches when my TX is turned on

    No idea. I think you should send the gimbal back.

    I'm getting the same thing since we added the Bartman type function. I've got six notifications that I can't see. Messages are okay though.
