With mine I've gotten to where most of the time I just wait for the plane to get a GPS lock and then point the antenna at it after I fly out a few hundred feet.

I do the same but I put my fingers on the bottom and thumb on top. I throttle up and throw the plane and hold a little up elevator in FBW mode and have never had a problem doing it this way.

I always launch my ZII in FBW mode. I just throw it and make sure it clears any trees where I'm flying from. I then hold a little up elevator while sitting down and putting my goggles on and it...

Yeah, GoPros are pretty durable. Here is a crash I had when the plane fluttered in a dive. The GoPro and everything else was thrown from the plane.

I checked and mine are at 35.

Okay, thanks. Do you have any idea if there is a way to get the tracker to track from a video I recorded? Just to see if I could recreate it? Here is a screenshot from a video showing how the...

So is there anything that can be done to eliminate the problem?

My Z2 did that at first. I had to turn the gains way down to stop it. I'll have to see what mine are at but they are much lower than stock.

I tried it but couldn't get it to work. :confused:

My BEVRC recorder records the data at the top of the screen. I wonder if I could play that back through the RVGS and get the tracker to track? If so, I could play back the point where the tracker...

I did try that before and it still did it.

Well, the GPS reading on the tracker went to zeros and the tracker tuned away from the plane again yesterday. It only happens when the signal gets bad. I was several miles away and a little too...

I changed my pan servo to a hitec servo I had laying around. I flew a couple of flights today and everything acted normally. I even went out 10 miles and the video cut in and out some because I was...

I changed my pan servo to one that will not freewheel when I loose telemetry. Hopefully I can test it out tomorrow and see if it fixed my problem.

I'm using 5000mah batteries but that is because I have a lot of them I'm not using at the moment. I'm sure a lot smaller would be plenty for a few flights.

That is my next step. I think that might fix the problem with it facing a different direction but the GPS being zeroed out kinda worries me a little. That is the first time I saw it do that though.

I just got done trying a separate bec on my servos. I didn't have any power cutting in and out problems but I did have one time when I lost signal when I got a couple of miles out and was flying...

I just measured mine and it is roughly:

5.373" X 3.175" X 1.134" ;)

I balanced the tilt mechanism to minimize the weight hanging off of it. I can actually put the antenna in any position when the servo is unpowered and it will sit there. I am planning on trying an...

I am having the problem with the tracker turning away from the plane when the signal goes out. I don't really think it is because of the servos drawing too much power because is has done it when I...

I'm sure your right. I wasn't thinking and set it with the switch in the failsafe position . I forgot I had to lower the throttle some before I set it.

I finally got a chance to fly with the new FW today. The first launch didn't go so well because I was messing with things and didn't notice I was in FBW mode when I threw the zephyr. That normally...

Got it unlocked and I like the new AHI. I often climb at a high angle where I can't see the ground so it will help me determine approximately what angle I am actually at. Thanks Alex!

Got it updated. Been at work all day in the hot sun so my brain is a little slower than usual. PM sent Alex and awaiting the code.

Well duh. :) Thanks, I'm a little slow sometimes.
