About Me:
Been flying RC for 7 years and have been flying FPV for the last 3. Want to start getting into UAVs rather than just manual rc with FPV.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
Having flown FPV for 3 years I want to get into UAvs as their reliability is at a point where i can see it worth getting into, when i started FPV I wanted and autopilot bu the reliabilty wasnt good enough at that point to justify the potential loss f one of my planes. Im 19 years old and loving designing RC plane, recetly taught myself how to use CAD and yeah :)

"Thanks for letting me know :) I know I just have to learn how to sort the camera trigger,
Ahh that sucks, I did the compass a couple times then shimmed it level and left it there for 10 ish minutes and never had a problem apart from it coming…"

Hey guys, After sorting the X5 (Thanks Chris Anderson) The X5 flew perfectly! could ask for a better platform, flew the waypoint perfectly..turns out a low L1 period and low angle of of bank(45 deg) makes it a perfect flyer.That said in…
"How do you do this? could I save the Pids for the X5 then seset the APM? I have tried setting different missions in auto and everyeime no matter what mission it always comes back and loiters, If your correct that means its stuck thinking a mission…"
"no geo fence :/"
Hey guys I recently bought and assembled the X5 which i have to say is genuinly a nice flyer, i added my own fin right off the bat. Flew quite nice :)the only thing is after i tuned in the roll and pitch which i got to a lovely state I…
"Hey simon yeah 2.6 but thats what i dont understand, I have flown about 6 flights with it performing perfectly then this flight is didnt perform very well at all and i suspect the compass/gps module is to blame since the compass was acting up on the…"
"Hey guys, Im having trouble with my External GPS/Compass module in my SkyWalker X8. I flew a mapping mission the other day and everything worked flawlessly and today and flew another mission at the same location and my compass was acting all iffy.…"
"Would this be able to carry a NEX7 with a 4000mah 3S with the APM 2.5 and FPV gear? I am currently using an X8 which flies lovely in calm winds but it very big and gets knocked about a bit in transport...I have heard good things about the X5 and am…"
"Hey again guys... I went for another flight today with the X8 to test the waypoints... i had mixed results :) The plane kept its height very well but was weaving(am i correcting in thinking i need to increase L1 Period?) also the plane had trouble…"
"Ok I just flew a way point mission and the results were mixed. It kept climbing and descending with the throttle and and off but that was soon fixed when I altered the Nav AS P gain. But when it flew to a waypoint it was pretty poor at staying on…"
"Does anyone have the parameters file for an X8? Going flying later with the NEX7 for mapping and would like to try a mission :) thanks"
"'RLL2SRV_P value is too high' ...So where do I turn it down? I have been looking in the manual tuning guides and on the mission planner but cant find it?? :/ Very confusing. would appreciate any help guys :) thanks"
"Where do I change the PiDs for stabilisation mode? IM completely lost, i hav everything set up right for a first flight on a X8 but cant find stabilisation mode tuning. Also is NavPiDs for tuning the autopilot? Many thank guys"
