    Walkera launches hybrid drive in April

    Yeah i had one as well and if you are into DIY they can work really but in general i agree, its just to much that can and will go wrong. I have ordered a drive and will put it on a frame design of my own, with a pixhawk.

    Walkera launches hybrid drive in April

    Nothing new, just as i wrote an earlier post regarding suitable prop size which clearly says larger props than a P3 can drive. Btw the part you quoted is btw a direct quote i made from a mail i got from J Miranda. And ofc it can be hooked up to any drone. The question is if the drone can: 1...

    That is the one they have on sale now. The one that launches in April is 1200 gram and 1500w. Check the flier in the first post.

    Walkera launches hybrid drive in April

    Here is the down side. Its alkohol and nitro that propels it. So its not cheap to fly with it and since it delivers about 1500w the engine is approx 3000w. This is one huge glow engine so it wont be silent at all. A Saito 120 consumes about 3kg fuel per hour at full throttle and these hybrid...

    Walkera launches hybrid drive in April

    More info. $1499 is just for the hybrid drive. It can be hooked up to any drone. It plugs into the drone in parallel with the battery. It has a Y connector for the positive and negative so you plug our unit into the drone and the battery. You might need to solder on the correct connectors...

    Walkera launches hybrid drive in April

    This will stir up things tbh. Just got this from Walkera rep and she stated that this would go into production i April. Range Extender | GeneratorSmart that has designed the drive promises 2 hours flight time and the ability to turn charging on and off in mid air. So basically you turn off the...

    Are autonomous waypoint missions the better choice for long distance flights?

    Its a one time purchase for all flightmodes (WP is just one of them) and they said it also includes all future flightmodes. The app is really simple to use in basic mode. But in advanced mode there is literally nothing you can't do. They also sent out a survey asking about what the next...

    Hydrogen quadcopter

    I saw this earlier this week and i wouldn't hold my breath, as a consumer. I hope i am wrong but i wouldn't be the least surprised if the price tag is >30000 euros. There are other companies that has revealed this before, with flight times up to 4 hours (allegedly) and a french company just the...

    FYI......Autopilot for DJI 2.0 (24)

    I dont understand. I tested all competitors and according to me this app do exactly this, you press the plus and draw your path and it gets converted to waypoints Can you elaborate, seems i missed out on functionality in litchi/fpvcamera/airnest since i think autopilot do the exact same thing...

    Great changes. Super impressed that you guys add things that almost in a day or two after receiving feedback. Keep it up, i have never seen anything like it. I really like that you added in settings the option to turn on/off elements in the flight map. The issues is that its clonky to go back...

    When to remplace the motors

    Change the bearings though, Every 60th hour is imo a good intervall.

    Yes you can but it still keeps all markers clustered and its still kind of difficult to find the right one. I would keep the "plus" where it is, its logical, and move the other ones and spread them out slightly and place the at a 90 degrees angle. And if you are schooled in navigation on the...

    FYI......Autopilot for DJI 2.0 (24)

    Just came in from the second flight and here is one more thing. I would like to see the ability to adjust the speed of the panning when i swap subject to focus on. Like if you tap the trigger point and you have chosen focus subject i could adjust the time it would take to change subject. Atm...

    FYI......Autopilot for DJI 2.0 (24)

    Just took it out for a spin and here are some first impressions. When you have a segment going from north to south or vice versa all the markers end up south/north of the end waypoint. Its kind of difficult to find the right marker and if we add in a trigger marker at the end waypoing we got 4...

    Thx for your answer. Personally i find the path inspector to be a mess. Its not intuitive imo. I would like to see more stuff on screen or give us the option to toggle different objects. It might already be in there and i just missed it, its a bit overwhelming tbh. Yes, over the marker number...
