What is the cost on this going to be? Also I'm sure you have tested the stability of this correct on the S800, how is it?

Glad that nobody got injured.

To me it is very unlikely, that all six ESCs fail at the same time.

The question is what he means with total failure. The bird dropped like a stone or drifted of and was not controllable any more flipped etc.

All six ESCs at once i agree would be a strange one. If really all motors stopped at a certain point i could only think of the lipo or an issue with the MC. Or the distribution bursting.

Yup

I whish we could get som info on that battery tray, like when they will ship! Becouse the s800 really needs one

does somebody have experimented some strange attitude with S800 : stay idle until half throttle then all the power come for takeoff , hover at half throttle , but some time it have sudden acceleration or loss of power . i have about 5 fly now and always the same .
i 'm afraid it will crash, when i read unexplained crash threads . i will not order the zenmuse until it will fly as well as my F550.

+1. I am holding of my gimbal purchase also.

Why are DJI/ reps so silent in this thread about the hot esc's, vibrations, white flashes and crashes? Also no sign of them in the new S800 crash thread...

70-80 degC is about the point where you expect the esc to fail.

i hope dji will find what's wrong because i won't invest in a Zenmuse if i can't trust the lifter

same thing, no purchase of Z15 as I will not be confident with my S800

too many strange things that always end the same way

Who's next

2. for the copper wire inside embedded in the arm is around Gauge 16, approximate ly equals 1.13 square mm. that's 11*1.13=12.4 Amps (one square mm allows 11Amps). Max amp i agree 16Amps. so normal - max still a rule of thumb range.
3. also the resistance of the copper fiber embedded in the arm is much much lower than the motor coil (much thinner and longer), voltage ripple effect could be neglected.

What was your post??

really very nice and a would be interested ,but as it is a 360 pan where could we mount the stabilizing card, RX, battery and video TX ?

Has anyone has come up with a brilliant solution for quickly mounting and removing the GPS/Compass mast? Finally getting my S800 out of it's case! I tried an R pin on my previous WKM build but it was just too loose given my lack of precision drilling equipment.

What are you guys who disassemble the S800 back to it's case regularly doing about the mast? Thanks!

Will this 3X Pro v2 camera gimbal hold basically any camera? (5D mk2, 3) Also does anyone know if the S800 is capable of lifting this gimbal with a 5D or 7D with a 50mm Prime?
