F450 flight at Cardiff Bay Flying the 450 around Cardiff Bay on a sunny Good Friday! Watch out for the speedboat dunking a seagull at 0:12 http://youtu.be/ooxrfDd9UlE

Beautiful filming (and flying!)as usual Ben! Was the call to the MoD required because you were filming professionally, or is Stonehenge in restricted airspace?

Love it :)....Music is a perfect fit too!

Goodbye F450 :(........Hello F550 :) I've been looking into upgrading the motors on my F450 lately, because its getting so fat!! 1975g with the new landing gear turned out to be more the she could cope with....too much flex in the arms. I have taken the gear back off for now, and she'd flying...

Do you pay him extra for doing "walk on" work ;) Nice vids....... It must be great getting paid for doing what you love to do!

Hi Ben, Embedding just will not work for me! I cheated on the last vid, by copying the line from someone else's post and editing it manually.

Neutral Density filter on Hero 3 Having read Chad's experience with ND filters I thought I would have a go! I bought a polar Pro ND filter for my Hero 3. Because of the strap holding the GoPro to the gimbal, the filter was very loose, and the frame was visible in the shot. I had to shave 2-3mm...

Speedy flight on a windy day I was out flying around a small village near me, I was hoping to get some nice video of the church etc. Unfortunately the wind picked up to around 20mph, gusting to around 30mph. It was useless for AP, so I took the gimbal and GoPro off, strapped a 808 #16 on the...

+1 on the music! Obviously not in the same league, but I did a similar flight around a local Manor house / arboretum, and finding the right music makes all the difference. I only do this for fun, but the General Manager of Dyffryn House contacted me, and asked if I would mind doing the...

Thanks again Ben!...Your right, that climb is a killer, but the view make it well worth while! I do try pressing the video button, the pop up window appears, and I paste the YT link. When I press "OK" the window closes, but no video :(

F450 fligt up Pen yFan mountain Took the F450 for a hike to the top of Pen y Fan. The wind was so strong at the peak I could barely stand! I took off from the leeward side of the mountain, and didn't intend to fly over the peak, but as I ascended the quad seemed to be handling it ok, so I...

As I don't have $20k sitting around doing nothing, and my HNC in construction leaves me under qualified, I'll go down the trial and error route! I checked the balance again horizontally, and it looked fine, but when I checked vertically, it was horrible!! I have spent the last 3 hours, filing...

First flight with Graupner E props My first experience with Graupner props was a bit hit and miss. At low to medium rev's they fly really great. They are very smooth taking off, and rock steady in a hover. If I'm flying forward at 50% to 75% throttle, they are still rock steady, and my video is...

Actually I kinda forced my own hand on this one. I upgraded the firmware on my NAZA M to 4.02, and my gains got set to 90% across the board. I've upped them to 120% for all except yaw which is 150%. I'm using a lowly DX6i so no gain tweaking on the fly for me! I normally fly in ATTI, but this...

Thanks for your observations. what yaw gain would you recommend? does flying in gps mode add to this effect?

FPV range test I did an FPV range check at Lavernock Point. I have no telemetry, and went a bit further than I thought! This was the site of the world's first radio transmission over open water...from Wiki: On 13 May 1897, Marconi sent the world's first ever wireless communication...

Nice one Ben... with the winter we just had, there maybe a market for that!! :) Thanks for reposting my vid....just won't work for me!

F450 FPV flight ove Duffryn Gardens Today was the first nice day we have had for about a month so I had to take advantage of it. This is Duffryn House. A manor house and botanic gardens not far from where I live in the Vale of Glamorgan, South Wales. http://youtu.be/Bisr22bVRMU
