    High Altitude shooting

    I live in Colorado and am about to pull the trigger on an S900 for my Panasonic GH4. However, I live in Colorado and would, of course, like to get into the high country and shoot in the 12,000 - 14,000 ft MSL range and want to make sure that I still have enough thrust to get the heli a few...

    S900 complete shopping list?

    Thanks again, all. I think that I've come up with my list. I already have the GH4 and happened to pick the same Olympus lens that's recommended for the Zenmuse (great lens, great camera, loving both!). So, I'm going to keep it as simply as can be and get the S900+A2+Zenmuse Z15-GH4 combo and...

    S900 complete shopping list?

    Thanks a ton - you bring up some great points about the Gimbal - no reason to trap myself to one camera if I don't have to. I generally get a good 8-10 years out of a camera and just bought the GH4 (keeping my Nikon D7100) but I do have a lot of friends that do pro video and use the 5D and it...

    S900 complete shopping list?

    OK - just found some more info from a site offering a ready to fly package. Looks like an IOSd Mark II and an AMP Pro (or similar) FPV kit should be on the list. I see the Futaba 2.4Ghz radios recommended often - is there a reason for the high preference in Futaba vs my existing JR?

    S900 complete shopping list?

    Hi all - I've been flying RC planes and heli's for quite some time and into photography and video for a long time but this is my first time putting them together. I have a Phantom 2 Vision + which is a fun set up and was convenient how ready to fly it was out of the box but didn't require me...

    Zenmuse GH4 Owners thread

    Actually, the more I'm reading about the GH4 the more I'm thinking I might get it for dedicated video/aerial and use the Nikon for dedicated stills. Videos that I've seen have been fantastic, it's not near as much as a Canon 5D and, unlike my Nikon, they obviously make a gimble just for it!

    Hello from Ryan in Boulder!

    Hey everyone, Glad that I found this forum! I've been flying RC planes and Helis for a long time (and, no, that info is not included in my online dating profile) but just getting into combining the two. I just picked up a Phantom 2 Vision + 2 days ago and I'm already hooked. Living in...

    Zenmuse GH4 Owners thread

    Howdy folks, New to the hobby (well, I've been into RC planes and helis for a long time and into photography but I'm just starting to combine the two) and new this forum. I did do a search and didn't find anything but I'm wondering if this gimbal (or any other DJI compatible gimbal) fits a...

    DJI has released an UPGRADED Phantom 2 and Phantom 2 Vision+

    And, of course, I just bought a Vision + 2 days ago! The camera pitch control wheel would be awfully handy, hard to do smooth transitions on the iPhone (and it takes your hands off the controller)!
