"Auto Tune Clarification:
"3. ensure the ch7 or ch8 switch is in the LOW position"
Can't wait to do a test fight tomorrow, but can't seem to find anywhere, where "Low Position" comes up. Would someone be able to give me an idea what I need to do to…"

"I have the exact same question re: "3. ensure the ch7 or ch8 switch is in the LOW position"
I can't find any documentation on this "minor" point. I am using a Spektrum DX8.
Appreciate and answer, as I am dying to test out the Auto Tune.
Thanks,

"Found 2 bad ESC's causing the problems. R&R'ed the parts and now have ops normal. (BTW, "all-at-once" ESC's Calib. did not work. Had to do them individually. HEXA B)"
"Thx, Vince."
"Hi Vince.
I am curious why people are opting for the complexity of and octa over a heavy lift quad with 4 honker motors? Seems it would be lighter and much less complex. I am sure folks have ran the numbers, but I am just curious.
Also, what 3d…"

"Has anyone had any issues, after loading
the new FW? I just loaded the MP and FW. My HEXA B worked before the download. No I get the normal startup sounds, but the motor wont even twitch, other than the normal battery connect movement?
Ideas?
Thanks"

I have the HEXA B...love it and have about 20 hours of flight time on it.Recently I have been having an Issue: First start of the day and all six motors perform flawlessly. But..the next start seems to always have the #2 motor go into a jerky mode.…
"Just Bought the TPPACKS AG500DD 3-Axis Brushless Direct-Drive Gimbal. I want to be able to pitch/tilt the gimbal with my Specktrum DX8 (It has a twist knob, channel 7).
I cant find any diagrams that tell me which and where to connect to.
Any help…"

"I did see "Batt Low" on the HUD just before the pitch down??"
"Keeping quite about mediocre customer service will ultimately do more harm than good to 3D. You can bet the compettion will go to school on any weakness 3D R may have. I am very very impressed with my Hexa C and I have no doubt that the owners will…"
"Knew someone would ask that. No, I was having problems with my lap top."
OK, I have about 50 hours flying this particular multicopter. I was documenting some levy's for some farmers when I lost control of the Hexa. You can see from the DVR that I lost control when I went from Stab to Loiter then Stab. This switch from…
I had to go video some river systems, yesterday. I was beyond LTE range for my iPad (Used as a hot spot for my Win 7 MP). I was not able to use the MP and was wondering if there is a way to download a Google Map in advance, while I am at home? (My…
"Love the product....CS, not so much. Listening?"
"I have the Hexa C from 3D Robotics. I have yet to perform an autonomous flight mainly because I can't find the docs on where to auto-launch, fly wp's and then RTL. How do I make the transition from flying with my DX8 to autonomous, mission planner…"
