Cool! I'll try that & see what happens!

Brilliant, thanks for the reply. It's a bit worrying about the failsafe bit though! I mean does it lose it's signal as easy as that?!!! The RTH answer is what I was hoping for, that gives me loads more confidence :-) There's a few tall trees near to my take off point so that was a big...

That's great, thanks for that :-)

Hi everybody, I've got a few questions that I'd really like answers to please by all the pro's on this site and I'm sorry if they sound stupid or obvious! The first question is this..... Am I right in thinking that it will ascend at 6 metres a second? Does this apply in GPS mode, ATTI or...

That's cool!, thanks for that :-)

Yeah I've seen Dashware & it looks awesome. Surely they haven't gone bust as they seem to have loads of people that use them....... I've seen loads of video's with overlays on YouTube so they must have a big customer base?

I was wondering if you know the answers to a few questions that I have? I've copied & pasted them from the thread that I made:- I've got a few questions that I'd really like answers to please by all the pro's on this site and I'm sorry if they sound stupid or obvious! The first one is...

I've checked it the Flytrex and it looks fantastic! I think that I'm going to have to save up and get one of those! Did you install it yourself? I've seen a few videos on the install and it seems that the core 2 can come out of the bottom of one of the legs? Do you overlay the data onto your...

It's completely stock. What altitude have you reached and is your transmitter/receiver stock? Also are the max vertical and horizontal speeds quoted by DJI for manual mode or can this still be achieved in GPS/ATTI mode? I'll have a look at the Flytrex 2. Thanks for the advice.

Re: Q&A's Please For A Newbie To The FC40! Cool, cheers mate [emoji4] Ps do you know the answer to the altitude question above? I'm wanting to get some great aerial shots of the area that I live in and want to know if timing it would work for the max altitude? Thanks again, Ben

Re: Q&A's Please For A Newbie To The FC40! Hiya mate, I've done the compass calibration and always wait for the green flashing lights. Do you have to recalibrate when you go to another site about 10 miles away?

Hi everybody, I must have been good this year cos I was lucky enough to get one of these for Christmas!!!!! A bit of background info on me and a bit of advice to new pilots in my extremely limited experience of flying quadcopters is that I started off with a second hand Hubsan X4 H107 and got...

Nice one, thanks for clearing that up! It was taking ages for me to bring it back down to the ground! [emoji4] I've got another question if I may and I'm probably putting this in the wrong section so apologies if I am! Am I right in thinking that it will ascend at 6 metres a second? I've sent...

Hi, I wondered if you could set the 3rd position of the switch to failsafe but couldn't find where to do it from? Is failsafe very reliable cos I've not flown it too far away from me as I'm scared that I'll lose signal and it will either just crash or fly away!

So if its a few hundred feet up you can hold the left hand stick fully down the whole time until it's landed even if it takes it 20 seconds for example and the motors won't shut down? Sorry if this is obvious, like I said I'm new to this and don't want it dropping out of the sky!
