Hey, great start. waiting to see another great flight. Naza is an amazing controller. I just completed my quad and flew it today itself. Awesome flight.

gunnu

thanx...hmmm naza is great flight controller..
which one you are using lite or v2??

meet2ami

I'm using the naza m lite but upgraded the firmware to V2.

gunnu

great... using same awesome platform..
dead stable in atti. mode but mine one drifts in GPS mode :'(
are you facing this issue??

meet2ami

No didn't find any drift in GPS mode. Dead stable!! Did you do the compass calibration and then the IMU calibration properly?

gunnu

yup did many times but facing same...

meet2ami

Hmmm.....was the GPS locking properly? I mean are you getting the 2 green led blinks before flight? Sometimes there are issues with GPS locking, in that case the position hold is not proper!

gunnu

hmmm i take off after i get two green blink... hope in this built i get rid of this drifting issue..

meet2ami

Yes drifts may be due to various reasons like faulty GPS module, problems in motors or ESCs, disbalanced frames and many others. My suggestions, try to follow the installation steps perfectly and in proper sequence. Specially the calibration parts. Hope for the best. Good luck! :thumbsup:

gunnu

Great build gunnu...but i would advice you to not put the fpv camera on a gimbal if your not planing to save the downlink and not flying LOS...because it will help you judge the actual way your quad is reacting to the wind and the changes the FC is causing through you fpv screen or goggles..
Keep it for a mobiuis or some kind of HD cam
For once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with eyes skywards for there you have been and there you will long to return
