So if I read this right, it sounds as though you've only tried flying a couple of times and it's been all over the place both times yeah? To me it sounds as though your motors are spinning in the incorrect direction, or the motor layout (motor 1 front right counter clockwise direction) is...

Thanks mate. The big tri is a x525 frame modified from X to Y and is now a 600. Here's the frame http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/600mm-X525-V3-QuadCopter-Folding-Fiber-Glass-Frame-Kit-4-axis-Multi-Copter-/201205463428?hash=item2ed8c7b984 The little tri a HJ-Y3 here...

Nice birds guys. Here's mine...

Did anyone pick up on this? Was the machine powered up with the props turning when it got dropped in water or was it powered up and not in flight mode?

No the reason you're getting poor signal is because of harmonics. Follow the instructions above, take your stand alone monitor/receiver for a walk and change channels on the receiver until you get good picture and better range.

nice work mate. Okay the Boscam units will have much more than 2 metres, even the 200mw one as I'm using the same one on my tri. Leave the TX on the bird set to the currenty channel coz the dip switches are a pain, then with everything fired up change the channels on the Boscam reciever until...

Long story short, if you're using the Naza PMU v2 you should have the GPS plugged in to the dedicated GPS port on the PMU. opposite the GPS port on the PMU is the lead which goes in to the EXP socket on the Naza. Have you set a switch on the TX to activate GPS, ATTi & Failsafe? When you go in...

Hey Nick, I'm currently on holidays and won't be near my machines or the assistant for another 10 days or so. I'll try my best to talk you through it but I don't have the luxury of screenshots etc for now. So basically with your 550 plugged innto the computer with the Naza assistant running...

109.8km/h in atti with wind gusts up to 52km/h

Remember it's not just all about making sure your sticks move, they need to move in the right directions. In the assistant they need to move like this, Throttle and elevator need to move to the right in the assistant when the sticks are raised, and the aileron and rudder need to move right in...

I'm getting 7 - 8 minutes out of my F550 which is running 4S 5000mah batteries and is a super fatty weighing in at 2615g. I land when my cells are 3.3 under load which bounce back up to around 3.7 per cell no with no load.

Unfortunately the FAA is copying the regulations which have been in place here (Australia) for just over 10 years. Out here if I have a cool picture or video shot from my P2V+ or F550 that I may have posted online (Facebook maybe) somehow ends up being used in a newspaper, a business web site...

Not true, you can easily splice in to the video feed from the original camera viewtopic.php?f=27&t=29690

Ground is ground, 0 volts so you're safe

I've been using the 9450 for about 5 months and also found a more responsive bird with a little extra flight time :D
