    Latest Firmware 1.10.90, any good ????

    I am trying to do the update and I am having issues. My bird will not take update from the SD card. I have tried both the P3P and P3A bin file. I have not updated in a while after a crash a year ago. I replaced the P3P camera with a P3A. My Go App is up to date Here is what I have currently...

    Crash and Burn, Kansas edition. Gimbal Toasted

    Gave it a quick fly this AM after an IMU calibration. I was having issues of the gimbal not transmitting/not responding. I was using a 64gb card from my 4K camera and I don't know if that was an issue or not. I installed the 32gb card and it worked flawlessly after several tests. I did have to...

    Yep. Wife wanted me to fly it tonight. I want to wait until morning so I can see if it is all working correctly. I am still thinking I might fix the 4K camera. I will start looking for scrap parts and new arms.

    Got the Red Baron back together tonight with a new shell and a 2.7k camera. Test power up looked good. Tomorrow we will see if she flies.

    That was before I even thought about test flying. I am curious of what your set up will look like with the GoPro. I hope you post pics and whatnot.

    We will do. Thanks for the advice. I should have a new she'll and gimbal soon. Just in time to film the spring prairie burning here in Kansas!

    Crash and Burn, Kansas edition. Gimbal Toasted

    Took it for a test spin this evening. Winds are 22-35mph right now. Might explain why it was only going about 10 mph into the wind at about 75 ft elevation. I just let it hover for a few minutes and did turns and little forward and reverse jogs. I think the board and motors have survived. I...

    I did power it up for a screen shot last night. I think this looks promising.

    Will try and get it up and flying in the garage or yard tonight. Wind was stupid fast today and I will have to pop the shell back on it. I got the stripped head screw out.

    I was flying yesterday on the Oklahoma Kansas line area. I wanted to test it today without the camera but the winds were crazy here south of Topeka.

    You don't think I need a new shell? I was just trying to remove the 4 bolts holding the plate from the shell. One seems to be cross threaded from the factory and the wrench jumps out with each twist. Mounting a go-pro is interesting. Is this common?
