Align APS system impressive

[FuturaSE]

I know there are many topics about this but for me its pretty new and im really impressed about the technology which currently is available

especially the 'return home' button starts 9:05

If i could spend the money i surely would buy this system no doubt

I have seen two of these sytems go haywire,one the heli was saved,the other one on the return to home flipped the model on its side straight into the ground,i personally wouldnt share a field with one now.

Both had been flown several times prior and operated as expected.

Align APS system impressive

I've read of plenty of experienced guys having serious problems...

I have to say I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole for now lol. I'd go with the SK720 + GPS for 3D or the Naza H + GPS for sport/scale

I have the Naza-H + GPS for a scale build and I have to say its impressive. Could do with some more features like semi auto land/take off (due in an update), return home (not planned alas) etc.

Hey.

I've set two up so far and they work great once set, but the instructions aren't very clear on certain things and we're seeing the same user errors as with FBL creep in.

The return to home is fun but scary to the first time you try it and your model flies itself home :-)
My only gripe is that the bailout isn't a bailout as such in that you cannot flick the APS switch until 30 seconds after performing 3D, but in reality is this system for that type of function and not perhaps more for aerial photography?

In any case it's an exciting system and hints at more to come in this sector going by quad technology.
