Static balance the F550 with the craft ready to fly. Balance arm to arm and get it perfect. The X, Y axis should be in the physical center of the craft. Then hang the craft from a motor and see where a line along the line of the hanger would set the Z axis. Now you can set your X, Y, Z settings in Assistant.

Hello there,
my experiences.. i have 3 WKM in 3 different MultiCopters with 5.14 and they have all the same issue.. the RTH doesn't work! When i switch to FS in one of them the Multirotor come back to the start position at 20 meters in the air but doesn't land, it stay in the air until the Lipo is discharged and i have to land manually in Atti or Gps mode. Another one when i switch to FS, first to all lose his altitute of 1 meter then turn deliberately in a direction then it stop and turn again in another direction at 20 meters of distance, then it stop again and turn again in another direction, lose the altitute then it go again at 20 meters and never stop to go here and there until i come back to Atti or GPS!! Same thing with 5.14a and 5.14. Today i come back to 5.12 before i broke something... DJI need to be sure about what he release becouse we don't have to be as BETA TESTER for them... we pay thousands of Euros and $ to buy our stuff and they release buggy firmware before be sure of what they are releasing.. I'm really disappointed about this kind of behaviors from big society like DJI. If one of our machine crash for a firmware problem above the head of someone or car or what you want we are done!

Just an idea...
Wouldn't it be nice if DJI also offered a stripped down firmware with just the basic features of early firmwares and nothing else? Some of us don't need all this fancy features and just want stable basic firmware. If I could use 5.02 with Zenmuse and iOSD I would! |

Check your setup in assistant software, maybe the RTH it's only in hover mode i think.

Need more flight time
I am currently running 5.0 ma batteries on my 550 hex. Props are 10 inch and stock esc's and motors. I also have landing gear and gopro camera mount from xaerocraft. I am only getting 4 minutes per battery or less per flight. What do I have to change to get more battery life? It would be nice to even add a couple of minutes to this time. Thanks for any help.

Hello dji owners,
I wanted to give my feedback, and get opinions. I just converted my DJI WKM from a quad rotor X to octo rotor X and upgraded to 5.14. I have a problem with the yaw, it oscillates very much. The octo takes too long to correct the yaw drift. Should I recalibrate the compass? Does anymore have the same problem? When I had it as a quad, it was very stable. |
