    Sonar on a Multicopter

    LiDAR would be very cool but a bit of Over Kill for my needs. I just want to know when I am getting close. I would like to use this to tell me 20' to 0' so I have an indicator how close I am to an object. I am not looking to engage an autopilot to save me feature or anything like that. Rilot-...

    NAZA M V2 No Green LED?

    Now Fangs I would never risk people or my equipment. I do have the spare on order. Once received I am going to send the fault unit to AH for replacement. I also have just been doing test flights with the new rig, red works so I have the low voltage and loss of satellite indications. Thanks...

    Sonar on a Multicopter

    I would really like to use a device to know how far from an object I am. I know this has been used for landing systems in the past. I was wondering if anyone has experience with something like this and could offer some idea where to start. Just looking to start with an audible warning for now...

    NAZA M V2 No Green LED?

    I see RED only. The (orange/yellow/amber) is created with both emitters turning on correct and the green will just the green emitter? I am frustrated they will not just send me a new LED module as I am almost positive that is the issue.

    IOSD Mini+H3-3D

    Quick Question. I have a GCU H3-3D on route and I am setting up everything to get it added to my F550. Can I plug the H3-3D into the CanBus EXT port on the IOSD Mini? I have not found a diagram where this is done but it looks like that is what it is for.

    I agree El... I was not a fan when I saw so much go back in. I typically fly about 300' away and if I hit LVW and need to make it back... But knowing that and knowing that this is still pretty bare (no Gear/Gimbal/ Mount) It gives me some things to think about and a bare bones config to know...

    So with the new setting 13.9 1st and 13.7 on the 2nd warnings I flew for 18 minutes and 32 seconds when the 1st alert came on. This was a zippy 5000 20C 35C burst. Within 3 seconds of the alert coming on my on board voltage alarm also triggered. I was happy to see they were so synced. The set...

    OL thanks for the screen shot. I will try your values as they are a bit more conservative than what I was going to do. I will let you know if I kill the zippy.
