    First UK conviction for illegal use of an unmanned aircraft by the CAA.

    Alas I am only familiar with commercial operations so don't really know the details of hobby FPV. Thanks for clarifying Michael!

    Unable to write and configuration to F550

    Don't panic! :02.47-tranquillity: We all went through this with our first build. Just keep reading and trying things and it will fall into place. I find my sub-conscious works things out whilst I'm asleep, so sleep on it and look again in the morning. That's all the advice I can give for now...

    First UK conviction for illegal use of an unmanned aircraft by the CAA.

    Thanks mate! I'll be adding lots of new stuff to it in the next couple of days.

    First UK conviction for illegal use of an unmanned aircraft by the CAA.

    Line of sight with the ability to spot incursions of your airspace by a manned aircraft. You can't get that with any FPV gear as it only looks in one direction and you can't monitor the aircrafts flight path in relation to others. Commercially, the pilot must maintain 'unaided' visual contact...

    Unfortunate event as Triathlete sustains head injuries from drone

    Really, the operator said it was 'hacked' by someone in the crowd? Seems a little unlikely given that drones aren't that common yet.

    New DJI Zenmuse H3-D3 gimbal, Phantom 2 only?

    Will it work with the NAZA V1 with the V2 PMU like the H3-2D gimbal also Ed?

    When to land?

    What cutout mate? All it does is flash a light. No harm in that.

    When to land?

    ...or all three! Eh, Carapau? I have all three setup so there's no excuse for over flying lipos.

    When to land?

    The battery warnings, when programmed into the NAZA, should cause the voltage display on the iOSD to flash. A handy extra feature in case you forget to look at it. I would program in some sensible warnings. The first level for the flashing light warning some thing like I mentioned above. The...

    Traveling with multirotors

    I looked at this site: http://www.brittany-ferries.co.uk/ferry-routes/ferries-spain/plymouth-santander Looks like about £80 more for a van. Long ferry ride of 24hrs! Get some beds in that van (unless you want to pay for a cabin).

    When to land?

    Why are you disabling the battery warnings? As long as you don't use the default it works really well. Around 14.8V is a good starting point (depends how much of a voltage drop your lipos give in flight).

    Traveling with multirotors

    I just managed to half the drive time by getting the ferry to Santander in Spain from either Portsmouth or Plymouth. £500ish for two people and a car. Just FYI.

    Traveling with multirotors

    I forgot to mention that Kopterworx ships lipos throughout Europe. Might be worth giving them a call. Remember Europe is one big land mass so land based shipping is fine. You could just drive down to Portugal via the Eurostar or ferry. It's only a 21 hour drive from my house in Gloucestershire!

    New DJI Zenmuse H3-D3 gimbal, Phantom 2 only?

    And where did you 'hear' any of this? Of course it will be released as a standalone version. It would be cutting off vital sales otherwise. When I have no idea.

    dji a2 two purple flashes

    If you've just set it up why would you instantly blame the A2? As Carapau said, your gains do look too low. It seems slow to respond to attitude adjustments which means it over corrects and bounces back in an endless cycle.

    New member.... long time multi-rotor pilot with a puzzle for you!

    If the news is really that big you wouldn't do one of these guessing threads, you'd announce it in the normal fashion. Are you ready to announce it?

    Understood. And which country are you in? Where did you buy it from?
