Went to take her out tonight for the first time.
It was dark, cloudy, windy, and cold. I flew her anyways.
Got that dreaded warning "firmware upgrade" so I kept dicking around and rebooting until the message disappeared. did an imu, a compass dance, got a gps good to go an took off.
Man, this is one powerful bird. Wind was honking, I! held it's ground, (with a pretty nice tilt). Couldn't see worth chit and would lose orientation at distance against the dk grey clouds that touched the horizon. Tooled around a little bit, this bird is fast what fun !!! (I wonder if I could loop her if I disconnected gps)?
Only flew the 47 down to 30%, hands were freezing and so was my flying buddy, so we packed it up and went home. Can't wait til some decent weather to really spin her around a little bit.
Quick question, hooked up the Shield as master, air 1 as slave. set them both up in the app, entered the master's pass, etc. Got the slave radio to control the gimbal, but there was no video feed to the slave.
I didn't have much time before dark so left with only one radio. What am I missing, surely a press of the correct button will give me video on the slave, surely I missed something? |
