Well when I got to the end of the section of your first post excepted below, you may not have been worried, but I was! Before entering the world of multirotors, I was fortunate to have transitioned to Lipo batteries with RC trucks where the consequences of loss of power are far less dramatic...

Some dealers have offered their early s800 EVO customers 'free' upgrade service to address this exact situation. Check with your dealer to see whether they will provide this at no, or a nominal, charge. Steve

FWIW, here's the information regarding v2.3 firmware from DJI's A2 Product Release Notes document (2014-05-30): "What is new? Firmware - Removed airport flight restrictions." So maybe v2.3 would be OK for you... Steve</snip>

...which has the following description in the A2 product release notes document: "What is new? Firmware - Removed airport flight restrictions." Steve

Thanks for the info. I've been looking at the same MA battery, but based on cost and old and new posts regarding quality and customer service issues, i'll probably look elsewhere. As for calculating % energy consumption, it's like to old days and calculating mileage in a car. Fill the tank...

Airhog, Very nice P2 video, thanks for sharing! What flight time are you getting with your EVO & with what battery configuration, capacity, & %energy consumed? Steve

The diagram is 'correct', but you have to follow the arrows to complete the proper sequence. Perhaps it would help if DJI would add some white space below the primary path and move the mode switch box to the left, so it is less likely to be misinterpreted as a step between horizontal and...

Thanks very much for this helpful update. Steve

Just to keep the record straight, the s800 EVO never shipped with 'v1' arms, that was the original s800. There were a least 2 generations of arm changes before the s800 EVO was released. The EVO arms are still composite, but they are stiffer than the prior arm versions and they have...

Thanks very much for the feedback. Hoping to see more of the same... Steve

Have you reviewed the corresponding manuals for connection advice? You'll want to have the latest DJI manuals downloaded for the Z15, the iOSD (mini or Mk II), and the Immersion VTx. If you haven't purchased the iOSD mini, or maybe even if you have, you might want to consider using the iOSD Mk...

I would think the '7C' the OP's referring to is a Futaba 7C transmitter. It appears that it is being used (or is planned to be used) to control the Z15 gimbal, hence the '7C (camera)'. Steve

Thanks, just wondered. It will be interesting to see what the FAA comes up with to address commercial UAV use in the US. Steve

Does this mean that the wt of Lipo batteries doesn't count towards the 7 kg wt limit? Steve "The person in charge of a SUA which has a mass of more than 7 kg excluding its fuel but including any articles or equipment..."

Well knowing which is the 'right direction' here is a little difficult. However the pics show that the forward arrow on the NAZA is pointing directly between the two red arms which should be the front of the craft. So the FC orientation appears to be correct. Still lot's of possibilities that...

Despite the fact that the OP specifically indicates a problem with vertical position, a number of responses have mentioned GPS issues (from 'Have you not got GPS?' to GPS is not functioning correctly). It's not clear why GPS issues would be raised as possible causes for difficulty maintaining...

Hard to argue with that since both the lens and the sensor positions are fixed, with no intended ability for end-user adjustment of the lens position. Since much of the GoPro market is self-videoing, they adjusted the focus point of the H3+ so that closer objects are sharper than they were with...

One last try. I'm not talking about using Expo to flatten the whole top part of the throttle curve. The option is to use a 5-point throttle curve with a flatter portion in the middle to create a larger range of throttle stick location that translates into altitude hold. It's an alternative to...

Sounds like the OP has had his fill of 'fun' with it already. He sent it back...

Flashing white LED indicates bad data usually caused be excessive vibration. Thanks to your detailed post, the likely Curitiba and first thing to fix is clear. As Tahoe Ed has indicated, the problem is quite likely the choice of IMU mounting material that someone made, a choice that is expressly...
