"Hi Nick, what components do you have. I would be interested in motors, escs and quad frame. Possibly flight controller, depending on what you have.
Thanks,
Jon"

"Thanks Richard,
No-one bled from this crash,fortunately. Our rx is not a carbon type rx, and it is fully enclosed by carbon when facing away. Apparently 150 ft is where it loses signal. Investing in a proper rx... Rebuilding and continuing testing..."

"Javier,
  Im somewhat new to all this, but it sounds like you need to activate ground effect compensation. It turns most of the load to the gps instead of baro while landing. The baro gets confused by the prop wash apparently.

"Paul,
Thats an sbus rx, right? plug into the sbus port. Ive been using a spektrum satellite rx on my PH2.1 with no problems. Range may be an issue though.

"Franc,
     Slave channel 7 to a switch and set it to motor cut-off in the configuration screen. Must have 7+ channel tx as mission planner wont let you use channel 6 for this function. Motors disarm immediatly when switch is pulled, copter disarms…"

"Thanks Dave, I will plug in the gps and see if it updates the clock. If it updates from the laptop with the usb, mine isnt working. Thanks again,
Jon"

"No Dave, I am not currently using GPS. Just for my general knowledge, how would GPS lock affect the time/date? Im not a computer whiz, and am learning as I go.
           Thanks,
                  Jon"

"Thanks for the reply, we are working some long days right now. As soon as I can i will get some info together and email it to you. We are trying to keep it private right now. I will be in contact soon.
             Thanks again,
                   …"

"Hi Forrest, is this something you are still working on. I am involved in a large x8 with staggered front to rear rotor height, and am interested in working with someone to help configure this to fly with ph2.1. We are ready to fly now, but may need…"

"What does that mean for us that already have one? I cannot get another pixhawk 2.1 with an edison?"

"Thanks for the input fellas. We are still in development of the craft, I will post some pics and video when appropriate with our timeline. However we did finally get props on her and spooled the motors today. Empty she wants to lift with almost no…"

"Thanks Brian, I will be powering the autopilot with 2 separate battery packs, and now that I know about the servo rail, a separate pack for that. I cant go into the details of the x8 we are building yet, but soon I may be able to. I will just say…"

"Thanks for the reply OG, but we figured it out last night. Rereading setup, and some other blogs, the servo rail isnt powered... the jeti esc's need to see 5 volts to run. Everything is running like it should now, and boy what a noise these big…"

"More info...
 -running two 16000mah 6s packs in series for test flying on each esc/motor combo. so 12s
 -40" T-Motor props
 -spektrum dx6 gen2 radio for now, dx8 gen2 in the works
 -using a satelite rx for now, will end up with telemetry system, and…"
