Hello,I bought an Iris+ with the gimbal, Black Pearl FPV and a GoPro in 2015 and used it to take a video of my farm.--After the initial activity in 2015 (my first experience with a drone), I was busy with other things, so the drone sat on a shelf (in it's case).In 2017 I brought out the IRIS+ again, and discovered online that 3DR was out of business-- and I could no longer get parts--so I thought I was just totally out of luck with this drone and put it back in the box.2022: I got out the…
Read more…well today just wasn't my day.I wanted to video some today of a lake near here that is soon to be refilled after the dam was replaced for the 2nd time. I preflighted my IRIS+ and even flew it around the yard some, it operated flawlessly. so i got ready and went to the lake. I put in my battery, waited for the IRIS+ to give the green light.i took off, flew around the perimeter of the lake some, and then headed offshore ( no water yet, just the streams ) i get about half way over the lake and…
Read more…I have an Iris + using a Spektrum satellite and DX9 radio. I can only get the Iris to arm and motors run when the Iris is connected to my computer via USB (plus with LIPO plugged in of course).If I go through this procedure without the USB cable attached, The Iris will initialize, LED will blink green, safely button pushed, stick right down on radio, LED changes to yellow and alarm goes off. It will also turn from blinking green to yellow without attempting to arm if I just leave if for a short…
Read more…Took Iris out for some flights yesterday and still flies great. But the USB port on my GoPro 4 Silver seems to have failed for charging and data transfer... but strangely still worked for Iris+ FPV. So the battery is dying and who knows how long the FPV will function even if I get an external battery charger.Question: are there any other cams that are compatible with the Iris/Tarot setup? I am reluctant to get another GoPro 3 or 4 since they seem to have fragile USB ports... and I don't…

Hi Glenn,
I'm really sorry to hear that. Do you have telemetry logs? Can you open up a ticket so we can help review what happened? Please send your logs to help@3drobotics.com We'll do all we can to help!
Just a note to people commenting on the IRIS group "wall." The wall is not a great place to put something if you expect a reply, as there is no threading. Instead, use the option to "Add a Discussion." This will create a note thread that can be easily responded to. Here's a direct link: http://diydrones.com/group/iris/forum
To be honest, I've been looking at the Discussions for months, and didn't even see this Comment Wall, as it fall below my normal screen full of data. If the admins had a way to disable the comment wall, I think more discussion topics would be created, and this would be a stronger community.

hi are there any plans for an IRIS+?
any future upgrade plans?
Question on Mission Planner and Iris Fail Safe.
In Mission Planner, I see that there are a few fail safe settings, but I'm interested in the setting for Ground station Loss, FS_GCS_ENABLE, would this also include transmitter loss? I know that the value of 2 continues the mission, but I'm not certain if that also includes transmitter signal loss.
With an older drone that I use with Qground control, the default setting is to continue the mission, because this drone used wifi, (I assume because wifi range was so small), I'm fairly certain that the flight paths I take would still have signal, but there are several trees involved and I don't want to chance having to climb them to retrieve Iris.
Any help would be appreciated.
Iris RC control display, no work
I've tried changing the battery and did not work
someone has happened something?

12 mins with a 4S 3000mah battery
Have anyone experienced this on IRIS?
Circle radius 0 (panorama) rate at 72, IRIS stops circling every 3-4 turns and does a 1/4 circle opposite direction as if it's trying to correct something.
I don't get this at slower rates like 18 or 36.
See video (sorry for the flip)

I tried the procedure described here to bind one of the remote receivers from an AR10000 Rx with my Dx8 and Dx9, however I failed to find the "Click on Bind in QGroundControl". Spent a few hours digging through the scattered documentation, and reloaded the Pixhawk firmware. Gave up and reconnected the FrSky Rx.
Then spent several hours trying to fix the horizontal leveling to the Tarot Gimbla. That was an interesting exercise.
The FrSky may has some technical advantages, but the transmitter feels like what it is;a value-engineered product Completely Handassembled In North America (CHINA). It just doesn't feel or balance like the Spectrum. I fly with a neck strap and pinch the sticks. A thumb flyer may feel differently.
