I've been trying to get the Tarot T-2D configuration application to run for a couple of weeks in a VM with no luck. I've tried VirtualBox with:
Each time I
Read more…I've got the MinimOSD from 3DR and a Spektrum DX6i with AR610 receiver. I would like RSSI info in my OSD.
I can get DSMX out of my receiver, but can APM read this input, or do I need to get DORA and feed RSSI into APM instead?
Thanks,
Nick
Read more…Are any of you guys (or girls?) using a sonar module from the 3DR store? If so, how did you mount it?
They sell a mounting plate, but it's for the "Hexa-B", not the Y6. It looks like it goes between two arms of the hexa, and so wouldn't work on the Y6
Read more…I had a crash yesterday from about 60m. The Y6 is not looking good. I can fix it up, but I can't figure out why it crashed.
I have dataflash logs and FPV video from the flight. The FPV camera has seen better days - the footage is blurry, but it's enou
Read more…I laid out the power system for my Y6 according to the 3DR docs, which means I have ESCs for motors 2 and 5 sandwiched between the body plates, with the other 4 zip-tied onto the outside of the plates, spanning the gap between them. All my bullet con
Read more…I am close to getting a Y6 with GoPro and T-2D gimbal in the air, and I'm hoping to eventually get some great footage of friends on mountain bikes. To that end, I have some questions for videographers.
I have a 3DR Y6 with a small 3S battery powering my video Tx. I'm adding a Tarot T-2D gimbal.
How can I power the gimbal from the video Tx battery?
Alternatively, how can I power the gimbal from the main battery (3S or 4S)?
Thanks,
Nick

I have an extra red and black 2-wire cable with JST connector coming from the PDB. It's not currently connected to anythi
Read more…Hi,
I've got one motor on my 3DR Y6 that won't spin during a motor test, or when the drone is armed and MOT_SPIN_ARMED is set to "Slow". All other motors respond to the test and the arming just fine.
However, if I give the drone a little throttle with

Read more…Hi all,
I'm waiting for my Turnigy 9x to arrive to control my new 3DR Y6 kit with APM 2.6, and I'm looking for ways to make sure I'm ready once it gets here. However, I haven't been able to test the motors yet.
I have tried the following:
Hi all,
Quick question: if I can connect two identical and balanced batteries to my Y6 in parallel using an XT60 Y-connector, could I connect four identical and balanced batteries in parallel using 3 Y-connectors?
Let's assume I have the lift capacity
