Video

Legend, Thank You, Danke, Obrigado!

hey man. Hast du ein Video ueber die Einstellung der Ardupilot for dieses Model mot nur zwei Flaechen?

Whats happened to wing talk...any answers or what

It worth of adding optical zoom into the set. Would be perfect. I'm sorry asking about tracking features.

sure would appreciate the script file... please reinstate the links .. this was great. I have been looking for this shit for years.

Danke Marc! Super Video! Viel gelernt

Hello, thank you a lot for your video, i'm trying to setup A8 mini on pixhawk 2.4.8 using eachine tx805 (vtx) do you think i can zoom and control gimbal with this configuration ? maybe can you please help me via telegram or discord or whasapp i can pay for this kind of lesson ^^ ?

Mit welchem Motor und welchem Propeller war das Modell ausgestattet?

Any updates regarding siyi a8 mini gimbal and the progress ? Same question regarding your trials to look for inav auto landing which had been 1 year earlier if I do remember right ?

Danke für das interessante Video! Eine Frage: Hat dein OSD auch manchmal das Problem, dass die Horizontlinie im Flug wegdriftet? Ich habe das in vielen anderen Flugvideos gesehen. Gibt es eine dir bekannte Möglichkeit, diesen Drift wegzubekommen? Danke, mit Gruß, Tim

Thank you for this video! Is it possible to simply connect my radiometer boxed directly to the pc running this software to make a ground station? In other words the telemetry is already there via the transmitter - can I use that data stream as input to this platform?

ich glaube das Video braucht ein Update. Oder ich bin zu Doof ich bekomme das mit der aktuellen EdgeTX FW auf der RMTX16S MKII nicht hin. Ich habe es mit der Yaapu Version 1.0 Versucht. Dan ist der Bildschirm einfach Schwarz. Bei der Yaapu Version 2.0 gibt es den Ordner Yaapu und Maps unter Scripts nicht. Unter 2.0 habe ich alle anzeigen aber NO Map Data. Die 100x100 dateien. habe ich unter Wiget in den Ordner Maps gezogen auch unter Image gab es ein Ordner und habe die dateien auch dahin verschoben. Als das nicht funktionierte habe ich nochmal alles runtergeworfen und 1.0 installiert und 2.0 drübergezogen. Der Ordner unter Scripts war dann vorhanden aber immer noch NO MAP Data. Zoomstufe und GPS empfang habe ich berücksichtigt sowie die auswahl der Map.

Hello, that looks like a great project. I have a question I see that your both propellers are ccw. As for 2 motor configurations shouldn't it be one cv and another ccw doesn't it make it less efficient?

Great video, very helpful, I'm still working out a few bugs implementing the A8 into my multi rotor, I mostly fly fpv freestyle quadcopters for recreation, and have a DJI Mavic 1 and Mavic 2 Enterprise Thermal for my side business and search n rescue team I volunteer with. I recently got a good deal on a DJI F550 hextacopter, that I want to make into a lighting rig for search n rescue ops. It's my first multirotor with more than 4 props, so it's been a learning experience, the A8 was a perfect price and fit, because it's purpose will be lighting more than photography, but with everything on the F550 being in the DJI ecosystem it was a little bit of a challenge getting the A8 to work, and I'm still ironing out a few things. What I did is use the DIY cable for the ethernet connecter that's next to the HDMI out, and just used the AV out pin to an analog 800mW fpv transmitter (there's actually a DJI OSD module between the A8 and video tx, for my telemetry), and powered the video tx from a 5v pad on the drone. I'm using an older Radiolink AT9 radio with a R9DS rx for my control link, but only had 3 aux channels that were already being used for gear/arming and two for gain control. But then I discovered that the older Radiolink radios connect to multiple receivers at the same time quite easily, and the actual radio still had 4 aux/servo channels available, when I was flying the F550. So I just got another R9DS rx, connected it to the A8 via the included S-Bus Y cable, and mapped pitch axis, zoom, single photo, and start/stop recording to the free channels/servos on the radio, and I was in business. I'm having issues with the photo and recording, not always working, but I'm getting close to figuring it out. They must have fixed the pitch control you were talking about, because I have it on a slider, and depending on how I set my end points and sub-trim on the radio, I can set how fast and far the camera travels in each direction, and I set the midpoint on a switch to be able to center it quickly. Anyway sorry for the long comment, just thought I'd throw it out there in case anyone else was struggling with non SIYI, Mavlink or Adrupilot hardware, thanks again for the video, it gave me some good insight on a couple decisions I need to make, take care, happy flying!!

Yes😎 😉

Cool, ich hatte schon immer danach gesucht, ob das was wäre für meinen Vogel, denn Drohnen fliegen wird hier mehr und mehr zum Problem. Gibt es schon ein Update seitens SIYI ? Wäre mal schön, was Neues zu hören und natürlich auch vom Feld zu sehen.

Vielen Dank!

Thank you for helping us flyers.

Marc...do we need to adjust our fpv camera to match the HUD offset? I mean pointing downward or upward or centre

I love the Helix. I'm just putting the new Speedybee FC in now.

Perfect, exactly what I needed! Both options worked!

Thanks for an interesting well put together video. Another twist to this is to use a radio transmitter on a tray with neck strap. The neck strap greatly helps with throws as my radio transmitter is always securely against my left hand through the whole motion. I always throw my planes with my right arm and my left hand on the throttle stick for smooth engagement of the throttle after launch. It feels awkward without my radio tray.

find any way to show absolute altitude on the trackline?

I’m very interested in tail sitter vtol but can’t find much about it. Is it not a thing quite yet?

Did you use a 3S or 4S on this flight?

inav never reads amp right on any of my drones. i can calibrate BF no issues everytime. iNAV just doesnt work.

did you connect this to a FC?

Danke für die Erklärung !

Hi ! the download links wont work anymore. Also after installing it wont start via icon in W11. I can force start it via Terminal with this dumb --really-really-start-as-root switch Also it has graphics issues. It all gets mangled. I installed the icon pack

Hallo Marc, ich habe ebenfalls einen Hee Wing Ranger T1 mit INAV 7 installiert. Mein Problem! Mit INAV 6.1 starteten die beiden Motoren schön gleichmässig. Mit INAV 7 starten die Motoren zeitlich versetzt und ungleichmässig obwohl an der Hardware nichts geändert wurde. Kann man das irgendwo einstellen in INAV 7? Gruss Didi

Hi Mark - the release update yesterday cannot be downloaded properly (windows zip) flightlog2kml win64 zip will not download (the unix one does) Can you reach the author of that download and ask him/her to at least put the old release there so we can download it? Or could you send me an older release (zip file)? Thanks Ron

Marc, I finally fixed the flickering OSD on these boards. I take the power directly from the battery and bypass the power rail on the board. It works fantastic now!

Hallo Marc, ich habe einen solchen Flight Controller. Ich habe INAV 7 installiert und meine Radiomaster auf den neusten Stand gebracht. Nun kann ich den Controller nicht mehr mit dem Computer verbinden. Ich habe folgende Meldung: Failed to open MSP connection. Was kann ich machen damit ich Ihn wieder verbinden kann? Gruss Didi

Danke für das Video. Kurz Fage: kann ich meinen FC mit INAV Flaschen und wenn es mir nicht gefällt wieder mit Betaflight. Also kann ich die ganze Zeit hin und her wechseln? Dank dir 👍

Hallo Marc Ich mir ein Speedbee 405Wing gegönnt, deine Erklärungen sind echt gut (was ich auch befolgt habe), aber leider stimmt die nicht mehr so mit dem I-Nav 7.0 überein, was mich zum stolpern gebracht hat, sprich ich kann die Switches in der Option Mode nicht einstellen aber die Verbindung mit dem Empfänger (TBS Nano RX) besteht, was könnte das sein hättest du noch eine Idee? MFG Rolf

All the parameters and settings arre correct I have 6 satelites, still i cannot arm my HeeWing T1 Ranger. I tried your settings, still I cannot arm my motors. I use INAV 7.0.1.

Hmm but I see not possible to use VTOL with Quad setup + pusher

Hllo ,can I connect the F405-wmn to lipo 3s 10000mah + ESC 50 A? Thank you.

Missing the wing talk recently, hopefully you guys can keep it going. PS Where's all the San Diego flyers at?

More wing talk?

Are they full flaps or flaperons?

Hallo Marc, fhat a battary do you use or prefere for this plane?

servus, gibt es denn eine möglichkeit einen VTOL im Schwebemodus den Autotune zu nutzen?

Wow even not going to chop your hand. 🫣 How do you configure? Motor start up with delay after throw? Or you’re just too good to avoid from props eating your hand alive??

Hello. Interesting. Where i well can read about this project and see code ?

I have been struggling to get the A8 mini to work. Apart from the flight controller, flashed with Arduplane, do I need any other hardware? Thanks for your answer.

CAN IT BE USED AS WEBCAM?

Ive only flown fpv quads and want to get into fpv planes, would this plane be good for a beginner? Im assuming i can use my same googles and transmitter with it?
