Hello everyone, I decided to create a shirt, flying our drones stylish.
The shirt will be on pre-sale for 10 days right through crowdfunded teespring site. if the goal of 50 units are complete you will be shipped 7 to 14 days after closing.
I will use the earnings to repair my drone crashed
You can reserve your shirt in the link:
After a year of having purchased the camera FH 10 with 10x zoom, the first experiences were poor due to the lack of a system of stabilization.
then decided dusting the camera again and stabilize with AMP 2.5. using the PAN and TIL my RVJET, to install it sideways. in my skywalker 1900. the camera has stabilization in the ROLL axis, the flight height is 300 meters and the loiter radius is 200 meters.

hello everyone, after two weeks of settings and adjustments, the achievement RVJET fly with APM 2.5 in auto mode
Flying weight: 2750 grams
autopilot: APM 2.5
Motor: 3020 1110kv scorpion
prop: 10x6
Battery: 1 x 5000 + 1 x 3000
firmware : arduplane 2.73
Because the latter one of condor drone tests went very well in the navigation, I decided to mount the camera aboard the condor photography for mapping and the results appear promising.
This is the wing condor 78 "equipped with autopilot APM 2.5 and firmware 2.72 with take off weight of 10.3 lbs.
2.72 firmware improvements are very good at navigation, I have tested the x5 and the condor with excellent results, thanks to the development team for this development.

Parachute for x8
This is the description of a parachute system for x8 skywalker wing. I decided to upload this video because there were many questions about how the system worked. I hope this video answers many of your questions for x8 users.
for all who have APM 2.5 with X5 wing. PIDS these are the ones I use, after several flights of tuning achieves a decent navigation.
in this video you can see the X5 in auto mode, with acceptable results.

Hi all, following the project of making specific instructions for each type of aircraft equipped with APM 2.5. Today I present the tests in auto mode executing a mission, this wing x5 has much potential as drones, for video and photogrammetry. the development of these applications www.makedrones.com blog we will develop in the next 30 days
Hello everyone,
Today I want to share a new initiative that I have, is the creation of a blog where I colacare the instructions step by step how to build drones. instructions will be specific for each type of aircraft, that have ensured that many frustrations with generic information that sometimes requires previous conocimeinto to build a drone. My goal is that if I place specific instructions for each type of drone (eg x5, raptor, skywalker, etc..) this ensures that the learner's curve is reduced, and errors are reduced.
This initiative came about many questions I get from the post that I publish diydrones forum.
Blogs will be in English and Spanish, I apologize if there are mistakes in English, I am using a translator. Will do my best efforts to create this is my blog
Any suggestion is welcome.
Today I share with you my experience after four years of trial and error with APM, and managed to optimize my skywalker as UAV for photogrammetry, is a team of professional results for less than 4k USD, APM is a great platform for autopilot dornes developed for different applications at the beginning is a bit confusing and frustrating but then you start to see the benefits of this open source autopilot. georeferencing tools like pictures (control + F) is very useful for a good result.
my drone is equipped with:
skywalker 1900
motor : scorpion 1100
camera: samsumg nx200 lens 20mm
LRS : dragon link
radio : futaba 12fg
camera video : gopro3
modem: maxstream xt9
APM 2.5
Here are other examples
This is a mechanism in place to launch the X8, when its weight is 5.3 kg. his recovery is done by parachute. http://diydrones.com/profiles/blog/list?user=15tihx7n8mzza
the mechanism is very reliable for heavy winged lanzameinto. unfortunately my x8 fell into a bad spin maneuver and crashed, and I could not keep doing pruenbas with APM.
I present my X8 test with APM on board ... and modification for parachute landing ... the APM worked wonders with this wing, only I will have to make small adjustments to the PID's ..
I want to know if someone launched the camera tracking code? I'd like to try it in this wing X8 .... if anyone can help would greatly appreciate
regards
Jim
