Is it normal for the Movi to spin an Alta with no battery weight once powered on? If not whats the cause?
Yes that is 'normal'. Use the mode switch for the MoVI and put it in the kill mode. Unless you depower the MoVI motors the pan motor has no resistance so spins the flight deck. You can simulate the same thing. Put the MoVI with Landing gear on the ground and instead of attaching the Alta, attach the standard handles. Don't get your body parts to close as it will give you a good whack....
if your using a mimic to run the movi - will the operator have to have a laptop to enter the configurator to do this ?
