Woohoo waiting for more Dennis Wheatly exploits

Mine came out the box like this



No swapping of cables needed.

Thanks for that, I was getting cable panic .I have had similar problems on other equipment ,I have read and followed the instructions  :embarrassed only to find the lay out has been modified and the instructions not updated.
Looks like my cable was assembled  by One Hunglow.

 Nice to see it working with the pixhawk/phone(or tablet?) combination Spot of tuning then ready for some awesome autonomous missions 

Loving the way you conduct the test flights in the dark, can';t wait for the upcoming links you';ll post to local new stories of a strange star shaped glowing object.......  ::)

Cheers guys 

I';ve still got some work to do tuning wise, but other than that all seems to be working.

There';s two reasons for test flights in the dark, 1st it looks really cool  ::) and 2nd the wind drops right down at night so it makes flying it un-tuned much easier, orientation is difficult, but I just look for the blue Rx light on the front

Should post the video on the official Rush site as they used the red pentagram as a logo for ages
