    Rotation Problem

    Mine is doing the same thing. Everything is calibrated but it still won't stay put when doing a simple rotate. It used to.

    ARRIS CM2000 Brushless Gimbal for GoPro

    My V3 replacement arrived. Still seems flakey as hell. Sometimes fine (which is an improvement!), other times it gets the shakes. If it's operator error, I'd sure like to know what it is. I'm shooting a historic site tomorrow.. hoping it decides to have a good day!

    Firmware 3.10 and failsafe

    I tried it tonight. It did a lovely job of bringing it home and landing. As is was descending, I tried switching back to GBS and it wouldn't until after it landed. Next time I'll try switching to ATTI first. Funny thing was the LED switched back to green as soon as I put it in GPS.

    err26 one blink green followed by 4 blinks green

    You know... this error code indication is an unfortunate choice. All green should be reserved for "all systems go".... despite the different pattern. I've flew a couple of times in this condition before figuring out it's not safe!

    RTH saves me $680

    So, it's important that take off/home position has a completely clear vertical path, away from branches or other obstructions, and an open ground area of at least several meters (to allow for the slight error I'm seeing on most RTH videos). It may seem obvious, but this should be part of a...

    RTH saves me $680

    So... here's a question arising from this story... Does RTH work via a course recorder? Or does it just rise straight up to a certain altitude and make a bee-line for home, then come straight down? This would make a huge difference depending on the obstacles it has no way of knowing are in...

    Missing Phantom

    This is outstanding news! Congrats! I'm definitely going to get some sort of tracking gizmo.

    Making IOC and Home Lock work properly

    I find HL a little challenging in that it has a radial characteristic. CL seems to make more sense. It flys in straight lines. At least as I'm seeing it! db

    Finding the 8x4.5 propeller

    You're right. I was apparently looking at an article about another DJI model.
