Not much cleaning up to do....nice! as Lanzar says its just that odd yaw movement to deal with.

Fab results from your BL Gimbal, What flt mode? I know my Naza GPS handles wind remarkably well, a winning combo you have there I think.

I haven't ventured into purely FPV with stab'd gimbals so I find the idea a bit scary.

Nice looking rig but never quite understood the need for stabilized gimbals for FPV.

Never heard of it, I guess so. thats what we call 'pole' mode

Bart, I Was talking more about the GPS being incompatable with the electromagnetic environment of an MR Airframe. Steve

I think Hoverfly should be radically rethinking their GPS from the ground up. Fact is its a huge board comparitively speaking and from what I read, does not seem to be compatible with an MR.....without reworking wiring, fasteners, shields etc. I'm just sitting on the fence drumming my fingers at...

Can't argue with that, I have a HF Pro on an X650, X8, Flies like a dream, cant put my finger on what way it feels good, it just feels right. I started out flying SRH and maybe it just feels more like a stable Heli to me, smoother, with the yaw rate in better balance with roll. Its horses for...

I would lay odds on 80% of Ardupilots are lying on shelves packed away in boxes, drawers etc. Thats where mine ended up when I discovered it was a bit more complex in setup than most FC's. My APM2 did eventually see the light of day again and I began to get my head around it, Its still on a...

Not just the Chinese Yuri, Ardupilot have got pretty good performing GPS and it actually has GPS Sensor and magnetometer installed on the main board.

Denny... are you actually Lord Sugar incognito :tennis:

No offense but fortunately it is the requirements of the CAA that we have to meet and not your's Str8 Up. What is ironic is that I see numerous videos posted by a few of the major players in the industry that far surpass this in terms of hazard and the response is by and large supportive. Sh*t...

Just FYI, Ardupilot APM2 / 2.5 will make a good FC FOR operating from boats, you can calibrate it ashore and it does not need to be level on initialization. Its also dirt cheap.....a comfort when flying over water. Eventually managed to set some time aside to set mine up on a small quad, I have...

I admire your'e responsible approach and your success Str8 Up. I maintain that despite the impression the video gives, It MAY well have been a controlled operation gone wrong but handled accordingly.

Fair point Str8, but realistically no pro outfit is going to turn down a high profile assignment for a major television production company. I would imagine they would ensure the job would have been done as per.... and the pilot did well to ditch into the river. as ZAxis explained. Its difficult...

Musky, Is there enough room there to connect AV out cable from 550/600D? 600D is about 5mm WIDER THAN 550D.

I don't doubt its quality or capabilities which I'm sure will be evident. Its obviously a serious film production tool and in that respect I guess it will serve well those with sufficient budget and the hi standard requirements. I know nothing about its technology nor the development of it and...

I cant help but feel that its this crossover into mainstream film industry that screwed us MR users here. I agree $15000 is a drop in the ocean in comparison to steadicam equipment dolly's etc, and I think this is the primary market. unfortunate for us they have to carry that price tag over into...

Suddenly the Zenmuse doesn't seem that bad value! I'll have to leave to the Hollywood boys, and not by choice. I'm sure its a totally awesome piece of kit, but $15000....for a gimbal!!

Indeed...is it real? collective pitch Y6??
