Wonder if your Castle controllers would work with them after all. Did you try? nick

We often fly in areas with loose, fine dirt, sand and the like. Best thing I've found is a folding camp table- think I got it at REI. We have it everywhere we go. Not as sturdy as a traditional folding table but it's strong enough to support our big machines and allow for lift offs and landings...

Been a while since I've posted to this thread but we've been crankin'. Here's a brief compilation of what we've been up to. nick

Hopefully they do the right thing now and essentially stipulate what we've already been doing- line of sight, under 400' AGL and insured. That would be reasonable, ensure avoidance with full size ops and cover 95% of all low altitude aerial cine needs. nick

Wonder what the latency is like on those encrypted downlinks. We spent some time with the SeattlePD machine and I was amazed at how primitive it was for the cost. nick

Curious what route you decided on? nick

The whole reason any of this is happening is money. :D The Parker case is interesting but only scratches the surface. It's when someone gets hurt that a true precedent will be set. Just be real careful with any sUAS liability coverage as most of the known carriers have this kind of weasel...

Steve, be careful with TRM. We looked at those guys a while back but had to move on. Any coverage you think you have is invalidated by language in the TRM application concerning legal use. "COVERAGE WILL NOT APPLY TO LOSSES ASSOCIATED WITH UNLAWFUL USES AND OPERATIONS." If someone gets hurt on...

It's still cool though. ;) And that's one of the early Flying-Cam rigs.

bro, that video is from 1993. nick

4K is absolutely here to stay and has been here for a while, really. For serious production its typical to acquire in the highest resolution possible to give options later in post. The mindset is better to have as much information as possible to start because it allows for the best output later...

Sold. Thank you.

These are still available. Thanks for looking. nick

I have a small one for sale here: http://www.multirotorforums.com/showthread.php?10097-compact-HDMI-converter

It's not going to be cheap. But then, this is designed and engineered for the cinema market, not the hobby market. Compared to a $20k jib a gimbal like this is a no brainer. nick

Brand new brushless, direct drive gimbal from Freefly. Looks like it handles the kind of camera packages clients want, like an Epic with cine primes or Scarlet, FS100/700, etc. This thing is a game changer. nick (edit: just saw Ben posted the video in another link a few minutes earlier-...

Ben, we've found the latency with the micolite to be pretty high, even in the best preset using the low latency sports/entertainment version. It doesn't seem suitable for fast action stuff. Did Will have any comments about that? It's too bad because it's awesome otherwise. Connecting an Epic...
