Original receiver locations
While talking to some new friends on the RC Groups forums, I was told of a possible issue with the location of the receivers on the bottom plate of the hex frame. In the picture to the right you can see that the main receiver (the grey box labeled AR8000) is mounted to the right of the NAZA M controller (the white box with the red label in the center of the plate), and its satellite is mounted to the left of the controller. Turns out that the construction of the plate that they are mounted to may block radio signals to the receivers. My new friends advised me that both receivers needed to be relocated to allow the antennas to extend past the airframe so they have the best chance of getting a strong signal from the transmitter. Time to get to work.
