Jeff Treadway replied to Jeff Treadway's discussion What does long beep and flashing red blue green mean ? in IRIS
"It's been so long I don't really remember, what the light sequence and long beep meant, but I got on the phone with 3DR tech support and they walked me through a complete reset and all the calibrations and everything was fine."

"Todd,

Thanks for the informitive reply.
Not currently using ny filters-ordered and on the way
I alos emailed 3DR for their thoughts.
I will look into calibrating the gimbal
Props seem to be fine and I did ESC and Accelrometer calibrations.
It may t…"

Jeff Treadway replied to Jeff Treadway's discussion Jello and Altitude in IRIS
"I also noticed the altitude read out on the radio to be a few meters short of accurate. I bought an altimiter that works well to verify my settings. 20 meters in geo fence = 67 ft on altimiter. Radio readout says 17-18 meters. Since I have the…"

 Hi Everyone,While flying this evening I sent a different camera up instead of GoPro. The SJ4000 is very similar in size and weight and fits snugly in the GoPro cradle on the gimbal. However-really bad jello, waves of it. I noticed a constant slight…

Jeff Treadway replied to Forrest Arndt's discussion Iris + Issues in IRIS
"They had me do the factory reset, esc, accelerometer, compass, and radio claibration.
But when I asked about the flight log showing it at the hobby shop, first response was that I didn't clear mission after being there. I have never loaded a mission…"

Jeff Treadway replied to Forrest Arndt's discussion Iris + Issues in IRIS
"Sounds very similar to the trouble I was having April 10 flying. It would land itself hard and bounce back up and fly a little then hit the ground again. I couldn't control it. The transmitter did start beeping at me to put new batteries in it.…"

Jeff Treadway replied to Jeff Treadway's discussion What does long beep and flashing red blue green mean ? in IRIS
"It does the normal sound and yellow flashing light for a second or so and then the falshing red-green-blue with one long beep. The lights flash so fast it's hard to tell sequence. I did get it to connect to computer with usb. But the flight data…"

Jeff Treadway replied to Jeff Treadway's discussion Interesting Log Files in IRIS
"Gets even more interesting. I zoomed out on the map and the red cross looks like it might be the hobby shop where I bought the iris+. Weird, really weird."

Jeff Treadway replied to Jeff Treadway's discussion Bouncing Iris in IRIS
"I will see if I can figure out how to show you logs. Last night was the first time I tried downloading them and didn't see any for April 10. The most recent I saw was April 9-a day that I didn't fly-but did change altitude limits.
Thanks,
Jeff"

"Hi Nick,

It was the batteries in the controller that were going down.
I had a failsafe for Iris to RTL at 10.7. Never got that low.
I have only used MIssion Planner to access settings on Iris. Have never loaded a mission into it. Generally fly in…"

 Today at the park Iris took off happy, flew to my limit and came back like it should. I start flying again and Iris becomes unresponsive and heads for the ground, lands hard and takes off again, I was on loiter mode. I switched to standard mode to…

I went to the park today and tried the follow me. Set it to hover straight above me. Just stayed off to side and jumped around a lot. As I moved around it would move some but not very close to me, just bouncing around.Landed -disconnected and…
