Xaircraft X650 FPV Crash

Update:
Don't buy an Xaircraft, the GPS and compass systems simply don't work and never will
I thought I had sorted the shooting left in sunlight as a coincidence caused by vibrations, obviously not
I had replaced and worn or flimsy parts, tested in the garden and it seemed Ok
Tok it out to FPV it and as soon as it got into the sunlight from the shade of the mountain it went off to the left again and I couldn't get it back under control so had to shut the throttle before it went off too far

I have DJI WKM, spot on out the box, GPS position hold at 150ft plus, rock steady, attitude mode, fantastic, best thing i ever spent money on, so im happy with my Quad :) Also the DJI Naza performs brilliantly, the XAircraft stuff has had its problems, and XAircrafts GPS and compass problems are just a pain the back side, when they first came out, they simply did not work properly, And XAircraft admitted they had problems.

To me, it seems like everyone is saying bad stuff about every quadcopter that is out there. Truth is, none are perfect. You also need a good radio and receiver for them and I hear lots of people with complaints of losing signal and such.

I have an xaircraft and in my opinion, works great.

I feel your pain. I had an issue with the 2-sided adhesive foam used to hold the AHRS-S. It wasn't secure and so I was having similar issued (until if fell clean off & I crashed & burned!) Still haven't had any luck getting the GPS & related functions to work properly... Frustrating indeed!!!

Here is a couple of suggestions:

1.Balance your props

2.Replace the props

3.Swap the motors around to see if the problem moves.

4.Disasemble the and re-assemble the unit and use Loctite glue.

Just my thoughts and you probably done this. Good luck!

A parachute mechanism (as long as it wasn't caused by a DX6 with batteries rattling around)
