Yea mines sitting below the arms at the moment. I did balance them back at home but I have traveled by plane a few times and it wasn't very "secure" in the case. I'll check their balance tonight, I like your idea of adding a few spacers to drop it down more. I'll probably do the same. Hopefully...

Is anyone else here using something like the batwing? My mate made me one out of some carbon fibre plate he had but I'm getting some serious jello and shake. It's sitting about 3cm's behind the moters, below the arms and I'm using the black dampners. I'm going to try adding some foam between...

Sweet, thanks for your input UM and Ladykate. Mine are preety snug at the moment; hopefully they stay that way lol. Fangs are you noticing a flight time improvement with the E300's? Trying to figure out if it's an upgrade that's worth the 300 dollar pricetag.

Curious to how tight you should be tightening the prop nuts. First time I'v removed the props of my F550 to balance them and the majority were pretty hard to un-tighten so when I put them back on I made them just as tight. Btw congrats to Fangs for getting his F550 back up in the air, if you...

Whoa didn't even notice the C rating! Thanks for pointing that out UM. Let me know how you go trying to carry a 10000MaH on your flamewheel ;)

Sorry if this has been posted before, had a quick look and couldn't find anything. Stumbled upon a 6100MaH 3S Batt weighing only 255g's! It's from a register reseller as stated on DJI's site. Would be keen to run two of these in parallel. Anyone tried these before? Considering buying two...

What the heck, haha I'd also love to see what your complete setup is. 18 minutes out of a complete F550 setup would be amazing.

Re: IOSD Mini not behaving Haha, wait doesn't everyone let there battery's rundown to 1.6V? ;) It's like 1am here but ill test everything in the morning. From memory I do believe it was showing the correct voltage before startup and would change once I engaged my motors. I didn't realise it...

My IOSD Mini is not showing the correct voltage. It'll look correct for a few minutes but it quickly goes from 11.9 -11.1 V randomly even tho it's above 1.6 Volts. My first warning goes off at 11.4 and second at 11.1, loss set at 0.50. It's confusing the heck out of me and I'v looked...

Sweet photos! Get any footage? I was going to get some around Cairns but was having a few flight time issues.

Haha, I'm preety sure everyone forgot while giving me that advice ;) Also, I made up a table with my flight times over the last few days. Hopefully it help a few people out, and I'll probably make a public one that everyone can contribute to later tonight...

Haha, I thought I must of totally missed something because everyone kept saying I didn't need the Can-Bus :roll:

I'm pulling everything apart today so I'll confirm that but I'v taken the top off twice and connected all the modules but I don't think there are enough ports without the can-bus. I'm probably wrong, we'll see haha. I'm testing a heap of configurations today so I'll do up a table with all the...

Thanks for your help everyone. I'd love to not have to use the Canhub but to use the H3-2D, IOSD Mini and Datalink you do actually need it to connected everything as far as I know. Also the Bluetooth module is connected to the groundlink, the module on the my F550 is the Datalink. I'v actually...

UPDATE: Just took it for a low fly around my house (not hovering) and with the 6400 I got 10 minutes with 17% remaining (low voltage needs to go up a lot as I was literally metres from me when landing but obviously I wont be when I'm flying it elsewhere). Also tried it on my Storm 5000mah and...
