Re: H501SS Help

I'm not sure what exactly fixed the issue but it is no longer asking me to calibrate every flight and no longer floating away or dropping altitude.

Re: H501SS Help

Took it for a quick flight this morning. It was rock steady, no floating away in gps mode. The only difference is i took off my Samsung smart watch. Could the bluetooth/WIFI in the watch cause the erratic behavior? Thank you all for the assistance.

Re: H501SS Help

Thank you for the response. I fly the drone in New Jersey USA. It's funny that you say that it automatically calibrates the compass because for the first 4 flights it never once asked me to calibrate but now it does almost every flight. I reinstalled the props and the battery case closes just fine.

Re: H501SS Help

Thank you for the response. According to the video you supplied noting the differences between the h501s and the h501ss it appears to be an "SS" version having the H501A board but the transmitter does not see it correctly. Not sure why there is a discrepancy.

H501SS Help

I'm very new to the hobby and this H501s quad is my first ever. I'm trying to identify which version I have. It does indeed have the H501a board visible inside the battery tray but when I check for the firmware versions in the transmitter it identifies it as an H501s not H501ss. This is what it show...
