The MFD AP is no longer listed on the MFD web site.  Either withdrawn from sale or going to be updated?  That would be S**t if he's stopping making it.

Could this be the one that supports VTOL i wonder........

BigT

I wonder, that would probably need more than 4 control surfaces I suppose.

Quote from a EU retailer when asked if he had any news.


Im not allowed to tell anything since some changes are going on there. But I will deliver replacement or updated AP boards.
MFD will continue with the OSD, AP and tracking systems but at the moment its on a hold.
I will be the European agent for MFD....

I will have some new boards online soon...

Made my first "mod" to the MFD AP today...





Will be lining the base of the new Skywalker Revolution "ESC bay" with flat lego sheet, so I can move it around as needed.

Whilst I appreciate the MFD is initially on 2 self adhesive pads - are they enough to isolate the the autopilot internal gyros and sensors from vibration ?
You learn something new every day.

Manual says no damping is required

Sorry, didn't know that!

I initially had doubts regarding vibe isolation too, maybe someone who's using this currently can comment on what vibe isolation they're using and it's effectiveness

All mine are mounted without dampers, no problems with vibrations at all.
Education and schoolin is good, but FPV is gooder :)

I certainly did, and I also said I'd never get a tracker... however I seized a few opportunities over the last few weeks and this change in direction has cost me nothing, you know me... always after a bargain lol

I'm still not sure how the AAT gets this information back up to the aircraft, the AAT is receive only?!?

Also, I don't have bluetooth on my AAT.
