RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

Koop, I think you speak for a lot of us! I wish I could say the only time I crash is due to the DF falling out of the sky, but I'm still learning to fly the darn thing. And I've been reluctant to...

RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

Oh, well that explains that, then...One RF hit and you're on the ground. As you said, not very robust, so it sounds like something's busted!

One possibility, mentioned (I think) by Sky High in...

RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

That seems like a different failure mode than the "power glitch" which has been discussed previously. Those have lasted significantly less than a second (like, maybe a motor update cycle or two?),...

RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

Thanks, Targit...I got RealPlayer to stop trying to play .mpg files and Windows Media Player worked, after waiting for the download. Did you drop the throttle as soon as you saw it glitch? Or did...

RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

Oh man, Koop, so sorry to hear about your accident and see those pics!

Since the boards are basically intact, the damage looks reparable, but still...nasty stuff. Have the folks at DFI ever...

RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

DVD-quality MPEG is a pretty high bitrate, generally at least 4 Mbs, and could be higher. Too high for the Internet, at least for most folks, if streaming. Your long "connecting" probably means it...

RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

Targit, I can't get your video to work on either my older Win98 box or my fully-updated WinXP box. The content type is "dsplayer, video/mpeg." Both boxes try to play it with RealPlayer, which then...

RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

Yep...Another version of that is when the FAA examiner puts a cup of coffee on the glare shield during a checkride. :D That never happened to me, thank goodness...

RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

LOL, true 'nuff...although once you start pulling any Gs, where the object believes the "ground" is can change wildly. In an airplane during a well-executed barrel roll, an "object with mass" will...

RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

Nope, didn't say that. I did say that the calibration process won't work if the front sensors aren't pointed at the sky (and the rear at the ground). The reason is simple: During calibration, the...

RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

Intrim, why would DFI bother to publish a TI calibration procedure if it weren't necessary? Why would they stress to hold the DF "away from your body heat"? And why would they want you to set...

RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

Hmmm...When you're calibrating the TI, the reason you hold it "eyes up" and away from your body is because then the microcontroller knows two sensors (the ones pointing up) are seeing "sky" and the...

RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

CB radios are AM and around 27 MHz...And you're right that DFs are FM, and at a higher frequency (around 72 MHz, at least in the US). The difference in modulation type doesn't change the the...

RE: What The.... Noooooooo!

I may have experienced this once...I was in my front driveway, the DF was no more than a few feet away and about six feet off the ground. I heard and saw a power glitch, but it lasted for less than...
