@SalomonMoc8 жыл бұрын
I was looking at your diagram on how to connect the air module and the VTX. In your setup is it necessary to connect the GND on the right side of the module to the GRD of the VTX? It seems to me the only time you want to use the GND connection would be if you need to power a 12v VTX. Since I am not using the 12v vtx on the right side of the air module, Can I leave the GND disconneted(right side of the air module) and connect only the ground and the 5v directly to the camera? -Thanks

Just stay aware of your minimum bend radii for the antenna feeder. Using an insertion loss tester on the feeder will show up quite alarming attenuation of the signal by exceeding the set limits. Just something to stay aware of,when we going for maximum range it is important to keep the losses to a minimum.

What's the magnetic declination for your area? Could that be the reason for the deviation? (magnetic north and GPS north are different directions on most places on earth). And I'm sure you know this, but far others having problem with a compass (this applies to mag calibration on any craft as well): make sure there are no magnetic objects nearby, which pretty much means keep clear of anything made out of iron. A shelf I have with the vertical pieces made out of iron pipes turns the compass on my phone up to 10° when I come closer than 2m.

Hi, I'm wondering can you shed a little light on something for me. I recently bought an Arkbird ATT and while it does work accurately EVENTUALLY it does take me a bit of time each time I fly to get it working correctly. MY question is..... I noticed there is a small bit of play in Pan servo when you adjust it by hand before you actually here the servo gears moving. Is this normal or is the greezed up ring on the ATT that the play is in damaged on my ATT. I've tried finding an answer to this question from Hobbyking where I purchased it and from Arkbird themselves but cannot get a straight answer. Seeing that you have physical experience using this tracker I'm really hoping you can answer my question. Thanks in advance, Martin.

The data transfered from the aircraft is embedded in the videosignal lines, at pal you have more tv-lines, if choosing NTSC there will be lesser tv-lines and more FPS, but the data in the tv-lines compared to PAL is interupted. There should be a fix for that so that you could move the code in the lines so it works.

I can ensure I use a PAL fpv cam but my 2nd cam may be a runcam or gopro HD recording camera with live output. Will using a video switcher cause problems with the tracker? Even using 2 or 3 PAL cameras will the interruption in video signal upset things? I use eagletree vector. I know that the telemetry stream from the vector must be disabled for the tracker to work. What about audio though? The airborne unit has no audio input, it embeds gps data into the audio then sends it to vtx.

The ArkBird relies on the frames at the top of the video and the audio channels sending the tracking data so I'd connect the VTX output from the Vector to the arkbird unit on the plane.

Thanks for the reply, will you be reviewing the ones you're expecting? Should I still hold out? I'm always surprised how much these units cost compared to the price of their components.

Not IMHO. An RSSI based tracker or an antenna array are easier and cheaper..
