    3.5mm Bullet connector Amp rating

    I'm wanting to use the new KDE 5215 motors with the 55A ESC's. The ESC's have 3.5mm bullets but the motors come with 4mm. As I have to cut the motor wires down anyway, I was thinking I would replace the 4mm motor bullets with 3.5mm. I'm just not sure of the Amp rating on the 3.5mm bullets...

    Mikrokopter FC status showing error codes (0x00 0x02 0x00 0x00 0x00)

    I was flying my MK today just above the ground when a shower of rain came over, the first 30 sec was ok but then it just flipped forward and went down. The only obvious damage was a broken prop and boom but thought I'd strip it down to check. I'm not sure if it was the rain that caused this or...

    Mikrokopter Motor Pulsing

    My X8 has been flying great but have noticed in the last couple of flights that it has been doing some intermittent motors pulsing (with AH OFF) that last about a second or 2 each time. During a 5min flight it might do it about 3 or 4 times. I'm using Pulso 2814/22 motors, 30amp Turnigy Plush...

    Mikrokopter Setting up 360 pan using S-Bus R6203SB

    I'm using the R6203SB with the 14MZ and wanting to add a 360 pan to my AV200. What is the easiest way to connect up the pan servo. There are channels 1, 2 and 3 plus the S-Bus port but I'm unsure how to connect extra servo's up to the S-Bus receiver. Or the MK FC. Any help would be appreciated...

    Mikrokopter Mounting GPS on boom

    I'm using a droidworx crash cage which has a carbon top so need to look at other options for the GPS. I see some mount their GPS on the boom. Do you also need to mount the Navi-Ctrl on the boom with the GPS or can you have the FC and Navi in the center and just mount the GPS itself on the boom...

    Mikrokopter MK failsafe channel

    I'm just changing over to S-Bus so I can use the MK failsafe. I'm using a 14MZ and have used up all the 12 channels that MK tools will show. I'm wanting to set up a failsafe channel so I can test the failsafe with a switch rather than turning off the TX - it takes too long to turn back ON if...

    Aeronavics / Droidworx Booms sizes

    Could someone please tell me outside diameter of the AD series booms? The wall thickness would be great also if possible. I'm wanting to know if the booms on the AD and VM series are the same. Thanks

    400Hz vrs 600Hz ESC's

    Can someone please tell me if 600Hz will be any better than 400Hz when used with the DJI WKM? I've just seen that Multicopter have their own branded ESC's with SimionK firmware which use a atmega8 chipset and 600Hz. Then there are the T-Motor ESC's that use a silab chipset and are 400Hz. Does...

    Low kv motors vrs high kv motors in windy conditions

    Does anyone know how the different kv motors handle the wind. I'm looking to use 400kv motors with 15x5 props on an X8 but am wondering how this setup would compare to using 670kv motors with 13x6.5 props when in windy conditions. On the face of it, it seems the higher kv motors (670) would be...

    T-Motors vrs Axi

    I'm looking to build a Droidworx Skyjib lite X4 and trying to decide on the best motors to use. Most seem to be using the Axi motors 2820/18 that have a KV rating of 670. I'm wondering if anyone has used the T-Motors and how good are they compared to the Axi motors? Thanks

    I'm wanting to get the datalink so I can use the waypoint feature but am also wanting telemetry showing packs volts, distance to home etc. Does the datalink show this info or do I also need to look into the iOSD? Thanks Craig

    Recommended ESC for DJI?

    I'm looking at switching to DJI after using MK for the last couple of years. The machine I'm looking to build is a X8 but am not sure on the ESC's that I should use. I have been looking at the Turnigy Plush 40amp ESC but have also seen some using the 40amp Hobbywing. Is there a recommended...

    Mikrokopter Updating firmware

    I've been having all sorts of issues after about a year of everything going very well. So I thought I'd update the firmware in the following order: Navi-Ctrl - 28o MK3Mag - 23a Flightctrl - 88n The navi updates no worries, but when I get to the MK3Mag it only transmits about 50-60% of data...

    I had been flying my X8 for about a year without any issues,and made no changes, then for some reason it started a toilet bowling circle after about 3min flight and did this for about 5 or 6 flights with only about 1 good flight in between. I checked the gps battery and it at about 2.85v. A...
