Look small enough to fly while your sitting on the dunny. I think you need better eyes than what I have to see it.:smile:

Not good Lee. Just tell your wife it's buggered and hopes she feels guilty enough to replace it, then you'll have some spares for another project.:glee:

I flashed with updated firmware on the 30amp Afros and still had sinc problems. I pulled the Afros off as and binned them as I just could not trust them with high pole count motors. I do have them on smaller motors and they seem to work ok to date. I went back to Birddog ESCs on the dt750 motors...

Just another thought. Make sure you have the RX set to traditional in the assistant.

Try this site he has the files you can download to your Dx8 and some helpful videos to watch. https://sites.google.com/site/spektrumradioprogramminghelp/spektrum-spm-files/nazam-programming-spm

You most likely have already done this but here goes anyway. It sounds as if it is not bound. Try rebinding and make sure your wires are in the right way around. The AR8000 is the opposite to most other spektrum RX in that the signal wires go to the bottom. Check in the assistant to make sure...

Don't forget to calibrate your Gps before flying. It can be a bit of a bugger toggling the switch to get into cal mode.

I have the same set up. You will definitely need an 8 ch RX. Set all end points in the TX to 100% before dialling in on the assistant. Set the 0 and 2 positions first and no1 position should be right. If you would like the TX file I will try and put it on here for you to download if this helps...

Iam using Birddog 10x5 carbon props from Mongrel gear. A bit exy but lift the Disco without to much effort with all the FPV stuff on there. 9x5 props are just a bit to small for the extra weight.

I found that if I flicked the switch too quickly it would not go into cal mode. A down and up on the switch of about 1 sec seemed to be about the right speed. I cal. whenever I move to a new flying location even if it is only a mile or two away..I hope this May be of some help for when you try...

Back again after a couple of months away. I have been building a few more flying machines in my spare time. Started on nitro planes and now have 3 . A PC 9 with a 120 osx motor and 2 boomerangs one with an OS 46 and the other with a Thunder Tygre 91 4 stroke. I have also put together a Y6...

WELL DONE TONY!!!:yourock: This is an absolutely great site for info and help. I know i have not been on here much lately but work keeps interfering with the important things in life. It just shows what a great layout, easy to navigate and friendly helpful people can achieve in a short space of...

These are ponds to collect water from the gas wells. This one will hold around 60 million litres. It has yet to be lined with plastic. If I am still at this site I will try and get some shots of it while they are lining and finishing it.

another video a few weeks on from the previous one. I converted this one to play on mobile so quality is a bit poor. Very windy when flying. have not had a day on site when it was not blowing. just looked at this after linking and the video is bloody awful to watch. sorry will have to upload at...

Your centre of gravity will be at the junction of your arms. The front arms are set at 120 degrees from the rear arm. Don't worry too much about it just try and get your battery as close to it as you can and everything else will be close anyway. They are very forgiving.

Just started my 7th week straight, out in the never never. Temps hovering around 40c every day. Looking forward to going home for 5 days next week. Have had the disco up every 10 days or so to video the job. Have orders for DVDs when it's finished. Think I might charge them for them and donate...

Nice spot to fly. I don't think I would have been as happy as you after ditching the quad.lol Totally different scenery to where I am, mm I think I would rather be over there at the moment.

The repository for body fluids and solids is in the site van. :throwup: I do have more video taken yesterday but the Internet here is very slow , it said it was going to take over 2000 mins to upload to youtube. I will have to do a bit of editing first I think. Thanks for the comments fellas.

I was going to post this a few days ago but was moved to another site for a few days and so no internet service, but I'm back in the land of the living. So here is the video of the site. Still getting used to FPV and lost signal a few times near power lines. .Bloodworth Site - YouTube

Damn!!! Its hot. 45deg C and changing truck tyres. Road I'm travelling 6 times a day is 40km long and takes over an hour and a quarter and there is 12km of sealed road included.!!. I am doing a video diary of the job we are on flying the disco once a week for a birds eye view and just started to...
