Pretty exciting stuff. 82 grams, 2-3 minutes flight reduction, beta,,, give this time and it will become a standard feature.

Excellent! Thanks for the reply. First time back since the update. Excellent job!

Hey guys, been awhile. Haven't flown my Hexa since spring. Got involved with other things to be bothered to trace out an electrical issue, until now. To make a long story short, I ended up updating my WKM to the latest firmware. Not being involved in the firmware since 5.16 I was wondering...

Think my imu is 'locked'. I have read where A2 has had this, connecting f1 and f2 resets it. Wondering if this does the same with v1 imu? I'm on 5.16. No response to receiver output Power from pmu is good. I haven't tried reloading firmware yet.

I'm just impressed as hell it didn't just fly back to China!

Been a long winter, but boy I got s**t done! First up, I did some major upgrades to my Hexa. This is going into it's 3rd season and it just keeps evolving. Then, I grew a wild hair and decided I needed to do some mountain peak exploring, so I built a Penguin. To tie it all together, I built...

Wow! Ok, you are not getting off this easy, tell us about this FANTASTIC place!

Hey Bart, thought you might like to know,,, I wore the t-shirt for the first time tonight, to a bar. Got lucky, too! Nobody beat the crap out of me!!!

No, with that low of voltage, definitely not. Wear some insulating gloves just in case.

Hell, I'm still on 5.16, works perfect. Will never change it.

A 16 penny nail and an hammer will do it.

For the transmitter, yes.

Distance is all about the antenna's. For uhf, the #433 is a good choice. For more distance they make a double yagi. Video antenna choice for distance requires directional antenna which will need to be 'aimed' a its target. Here's a simple equation; "distance = $$$"

Yes, the motor rotation must be set correctly. This is done by swapping two of the three motor leads around. Don't matter which two.Also, both the imu and the gps puck have and arrow on them identifying forward.

As the gyro's are in a unstable state on the ground all movements might not be equal. The thing to ensure, as an example, if you push the pitch forward, does it indeed try to tilt forward or off to the side. First lift off is a real scary moment. Make damn sure your transmitter to esc throttle...

Assuming you have all the props rotating properly,,, at lift off, the gyro's are not stabilized. You do not want to linger at take off but 'pop' it into the air about 3 feet. Before take off, I like to wiggle the sticks, just to make sure I see it responding to the inputs to verify.

It all you want is a monitor that is simple. Mount your monitor to a tripod, Velcro another receiver on back after selecting the correct channel, ( yes, it has to be a matching frequency, ImmerisonRC/Fatshark match frequencies ), Velcro on a lipo battery on the back of the monitor and you're done.

Ahhh, man. Just a thought here. I remember another thread somewhere,,,, the guy opened up his Naza and found a bad solder joint on a connector pin.

Well, here I Colorado, we know you can't get good grass without taking care of the roots first!

Great shooting! Never been to the new field myself. Nice pic with Elway, too!!! So looking forward to the big game. GO BRONCOS!!!
