Did you figure out what happened with yours?

Looks like m2 ramped up to max at the end and m5 went to almost nothing. Kloner youre scaring me, I just ordered a superx.

Zen is the best and easiest to set up. Cant use your Nikon on it though. Also its 3 axis so youll need retracts to pan the zen.

T motors makes the best props. Bigger props will give you more lift and longer flight times. Smaller is better for stability.

They make them so people dont have to balance cameras on their own. It is a turnkey no fuss solution. I also don't see the point because of their lack of flexibility.

3 axis on follow mode is definitely the way to go with a 1 operator setup if you can swing it. Unless you're flying a sony cam with boss stabilization.

How do you know when a bearing is bad?

Do you have any flying experience? Buy a couple of S800 EVOs with Zenmuse for GH3. Get big lipos. Retracts. Jeti has the best radios. You have a lot of work to do in a month - especially if you don't have flying experience. Don't forget these things are very easy to fly into the ocean...

Finally got a maiden up today. Not good. Not good at all. I could really use some help from you guys on this one. Running WKM 5.16. Started off in GPS mode - she flew great for about 2-3 minutes. I landed to check the heat on the motors and escs. Everything flew fine and heat was fine...

If you go Y6 you can put on much larger props which = more flight time. You will sacrifice a bit of time going coax, but you will fly better in wind and be able to go much larger on props - you'll also need lower kv motors. Flight time is low kv motors and bigger props.

I guess I should clarify, I was balancing 15 inch t motor props. They definitely have hub issues. I think 2 of the 6 had blades out of balance and 5 had hubs out. I haven't flown the props yet, but the tape sticks really well. I had to remove a couple of pieces and it took a bit of effort...

Just came across this stuff: http://www.amazon.com/Unique-LD-36-Tourna-Lead-Tape/dp/B00124KUBC It's exactly what I've been looking for to balance hubs. I had been using Super Glue, but it was a pain in the a** and left a bunch of white residue. I still like to use Scotch tape to balance the...

Yep. All depends on your payload and flight time expectations though.

Just saw this posted over at gizmodo. Hysterical! I wish they didn't fly over all the city streets though.

Thanks guys! I'll try some leaded.

Finally found some time to work on my new Y6. Soldering the thickest PDB I've ever had. I'm having a hell of a time just getting the ESCs on there. They just don't seem to be taking. I'm using a Weller 100/140 watt gun with rosin core unleaded solder. Not using any flux - just trying to...

Bitrate question: Do you prefer 60p ipb 50 mbps or 60p All intra 72mbps or 24p all intra 72mbps or 24p ipb 50 mbps Weve been shooting 24/72, but I'm not sure if that is best for aerials. Does 60 stabilize better in post?

Sorry, I misunderstood. If you rebalance then footage will be good, but rebalancing on the Zen is not easy and sometimes not possible depending on the lens.

Beautiful stuff Nick! One of the best reels I've ever seen, and I've seen most of them.

Is anybody out there using the latest? I don't really have time right now to wade through 75 pages of forums at that other site. Is it working well? Am I safe downloading it on our primary rig? Thanks, TB
