    The ALL New DJI S900 Hexacopter!

    I don't like the 150 connectors and some people have already had them break. I would rather have a pair of XT90 connectors going to two separate batteries.

    The ALL New DJI S900 Hexacopter!

    The is a copy of the email I received from him. I don't want to get anyone in trouble but my A2 clearly has a GPS lock problem. It is intermittent and sometimes I can go 20 flights with no problem and then 5 flights in a row it will fail every time. Now that I am seeing the problem more at take...

    The ALL New DJI S900 Hexacopter!

    I contacted the dealer I purchased it from, Robert at UAVproducts said they they don't replace defective items and that I needed to contact DJI. I tried that first before I called DJI.

    The ALL New DJI S900 Hexacopter!

    Here is a video on what mine is doing.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftZvLAe6dcA&list=UUtsQBn8sezLXKHA2xYswdWQ When I called DJI about it they said that is was the area I was flying and there is nothing wrong with it. If they were to take it in and it tested fine, then I would have to pay...

    The ALL New DJI S900 Hexacopter!

    I so wish it would. I would rather be flying A2's in all my aircraft. At this point the only controller I can depend on is my Naza V2 and the WKM . Over 100 hours of flight time on the Naza and it has never lost GPS signal while flying outside. I have another A2 GPS puck I borrowed and will be...

    The ALL New DJI S900 Hexacopter!

    Don't trust the GPS. On some units the GPS will cut out at take off. Flip into Atti for takeoff and review the number of sats you have before flying off. If the GPS does go out, it will fly just fine in ATTI mode but you will lose the return to home functions and failsafe functions without GPS...

    The ALL New DJI S900 Hexacopter!

    Start at 100 for all of them. It makes it smooth and controllable. After your first flight you may want to up the gains a little. I don't like it too twitchy. When you add a gimbal and camera you will need to bump up the gains again.

    22 minutes of actual flying. Not super aggressive but normal flying like I was shooting something.

    The ALL New DJI S900 Hexacopter!

    Flight time is 22 minutes using a pair of 8000 mah Multistar batteries with about 20% remaining. Still waiting on my real gimbal so this is just screwing around!

    S900 and XT60 Connectors on Batteries?

    I just ordered some of these. I plan to replace the 150 connectors on my S900. http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__61690__XT90_S_Anti_Spark_Connector_2pairs_bag_.html?strSearch=spark

    The ALL New DJI S900 Hexacopter!

    S900 and XT60 Connectors on Batteries?

    The S900 pulls 135 amps at full power. The XT60 is rated at 60amps. The XT90 would be a better choice and now you can get the sparkless XT90's.

    colin guinn booted from DJI

    I agree with Scott. I have over 200 hours of flight time built up now with Phantom, Naza V1, V2, Wookong and A2. Yes, it can seem like the aircraft is flying away but I have found that it is always operator error. There is a lot of learning. When you think you understand it, you will fly it...

    Having a problem with the new A2 Firmware v2.1

    I am finding that the V2.1 update works great on both my S800 and F550. This update fixed all the bugs in the A2 for me and it is more stable than the Naza V2 ever was.

    S800 EVO Motor Mounts are not installed properly at factory!

    The whole idea of tilting the motors is silly. The grommets are not holding up when installed upside down as widely reported. One user said they saw failure within 2 hours of flight time. I have re-installed all of my grommets with the large end up as they were designed to be installed. The...

    S800 EVO Motor Mounts are not installed properly at factory!

    Everyone with an S800 EVO, you should inspect your motor mount grommets right now, before your next flight. The factory is not installing them correctly. They are being put in randomly. Each grommet has a top and bottom. If put in backwards it will substantially shorten the lift of the grommet...

    DJI A2 PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU BUY (New firmware may change my opinion)

    I am happy to report that the V2.1 software fixed the POI bug the previous version 2.00 had. Now all POI operations (both on site and after moving away )are smooth and work as expected. No more erratic movements. After running a series of tests during two flights I don't see any problems with...

    DJI H3-2D Gimbal Version 1.6 Update Issues - Don't Install!

    I see two different things in that video. At the 15 second mark, I can see the camera vibrating. What I see at 1:45 looks like common jello from props. I can't tell if the problem is the gimbal or the aircraft. Can you move the gimbal to a different bird? Looks like most of your video is really...

    DJI H3-2D Gimbal Version 1.6 Update Issues - Don't Install!

    Do you have any video while flying? I have seen gimbals shake on the ground and be just fine in the air. Sometimes the harmonics of the frame can make it hard on the gimbal.

    DJI H3-2D Gimbal Version 1.6 Update Issues - Don't Install!

    The only thing I see in the video is some scary guy grabbing his camera. Don't do that because you are causing it to go into hibernation mode and shut down.
