If I need to calibrate the compass I do it before attaching the gimbal. Makes it all a bit easier.. Thanks for the info. I was questioning the compass alignment as I have been using poi mode a bit recently and my camera operator was moaning that it wasn't maintaining the nose in very accurately..

Just wondered what the correct way to set up the compass GPS module. Should the compass point directly forward in relation to the Multirotor or should the compass point to magnetic north when the Multirotor points to true north? Thanks Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

There are several different ways to do this and when I was setting up I spent a lot of time figuring out what I thought was the best way. I use a 18 channel futaba tx for everything - pilot controls and camera controls. When operating with my camera operator (most of the time) I use a buddy box...

I am using a wkm with V 5.26 and am finding the recording of the home point and poi position very intermittent using the toggling of the IOC switch. The IOC switch is calibrated correctly and I've tried toggling the switch at various different speeds, different numbers of times all as directed...

Doing that on my Nex7 still leaves me with the black bar down the right hand side with the menu wheel showing. Am I doing something wrong here? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Oh well, looks like we are stuck with it then. Bit of a shame as it interferes with the IOSD although you can set it up so that you only loose the vertical speed display as it's over the menu dial... Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Hi, for anyone using the Nex7 with a HDMI video downlink, have you managed to get rid of the black bar on the right hand side of the screen that shows the camera info and menu buttons? I think I've been through all the menus on the camera and can't seem to find an option to remove it. Not a...

Hi, I'm trying to get my head around SBUS and how I can use it for my octo setup. Using a futaba 14sg and wkm for a 1 person setup. I'm not bothered about being able to switch hdmi off so I need a total of 7 channels for the Z15. Zen manual says Can I re-assign these or do I have to accept...

Thanks for the reply. According to the 14sg manual you can assign any switch to toggle on off trainer mode so I think that's ok. This is what the manual has to say about the 3 modes you can assign to each channel. The mode you describe teaching your son with is Func mode. This would be no...

Good question - i would only use the single pilot option when I am using the groundstation / autopilot. I would assign a switch on the tx to activate a mix which transfers the gimbal tilt / pan control onto the main tx sticks. As soon as the autopilot is no longer in control or i come out of GPS...

Hi - I am putting together an octo with the WKM flight controller and Z15 nex7 gimbal and am trying to figure out a control system to give me single pilot operation with option for a camera operator (probably via buddy system). I have a JR DSX9 but think I will convert over to futaba for this...
