Just did my first two test flights with the S1000 / Z15-5D setup. I noticed some minor oscillations when hovering. Not there all the time but noticeable for sure. Haven't looked at the video yet to see if it picked up in camera or not. I tried turning the gains down by 10 all around but that...

Great. That is what I will do then. Thanks!

No one...???

So the A2 took down my Carboncore Hex a month or so ago with Z15-5D and Canon 5D MKIII onboard. Major bummer! Miraculously it "appeared" that the gimbal was not damaged, bent or broken in any way apart from a pinched black ribbon cable that I reclaced. I have since replaced the camera and...

Over and over I run the firmware updates in the A2 Assistant software and they fail OR appear to fail. Usually I get an error and it says to try power cycle and try again but it just never works when I do. Very frustrating! Particularly so when I have personally had my last A2 take down my...

I figured as much but I also thought I should ask. Thanks!

Here is a picture that shows what I am talking about. If you look at the close prop and line it up with the one directly across from it you can really see the angle.

Just putting together my S1000 and I notice that all the arms with CW props have props that are angled about 3.5 degrees CW and the CCW prop arms have props angled 3.5 degrees CCW. This is seen when viewing side on. I am not talking about the 7.5 degree angle that all the arms have out from...

I picked up a used F450 and upgraded it to Nava V2 and 4S 3700 mAH lipos. The LED never flashes yellow but instead goes straight to red flashing after about 3.5 minutes of not too aggressive flying. At that point I check and they are usually around 63%. I can fly for another 3 minutes or so...

Good idea. I am in Canada and my sources are much fewer and further between. Obviously I can order from the US but it always costs more by the time I get it.

Duh, I woke up this morning and just realized that all I need to do is jump a wire from the main lead in to this broken ESC wire. Simple! Now why couldn't I have thought of that last night...

I have an S1000 on back order but I am getting frustrated waiting for it. My dealer says there have been some little problems with the first run and they are waiting to fix those. Is there any truth to this or...??? TC

Had a little oopsy with my F450 running the my new iPad ground station the other day. It kind of went crazy. Luckily it missed the new window but it did break an arm and now I see that the + ESC power point is broken off the bottom board for one motor. There is no gold colored metal at all...

Well this is kind of crazy... How does one go about sorting something like this out? I am in the middle of a planned rebuild with salvaged parts and 2 new motors and ESCs. Was hoping to use what I have because... I have it... but not if that means a repeat of what happened.

My hex did a similar move but much more pronounced. Here is a link to the thread. http://www.multirotorforums.com/showthread.php?17218-Motor-Flight-Control-and-or-Z15-Weirdness My scenario ended very badly indeed. I believe it was an A2 issue but never got the the bottom of it. Hopefully it...

Mine had Simon K Firmware...

My ESCs are 60amp Maytechs and power distribution looks good all around. I feel that it was an FC issue for sure. I had been having some issues with that and I thought I heard the tell tale noise it had been making before when the problem came up. I see that DJI has an update for the A2...

Mine was a bit different than that and was only apparent with camera and gimbal while flying. I posted a video early on in this thread.

Let's just say the problem worked itself out today... Went out for one last sunset shot. I was about 750' away and 50' up and it started making the stuttery noise, tipped over and went straight down into snowy field. Bye, bye hex, Canon 5D, zen Gimbal and the rest of it. The A2, which...
