I built mine in Oct of 2012. I shoot lots of still photos with the goPro but not much video. I have no gimbal. My camera is rigid mounted. The Hero 2 pics need lots of photoshop help because of distortion, high contrast and color balance. Some of my aerials are here...

Hello Danny, I'm in Saugus MA and built a DJI F550 in OCT of 2012. I fly mostly to shoot stills with a rigid mounted Hero 2. I need to fly a camera better than a GoPro to get the large print quality I want. So I too am looking for something with a Gimbal that will lift my DSLRs, maybe in the...

I see, so you shoot the suspending branches. I never woulda thunk... Check out this method of RC craft removal from a tree: https://plus.google.com/+JimHarrington/posts/9otsbSuK5us

You shot your MR out of a tree with a shotgun?

Thanks for the feedback Jbrumberg. I've never heard of Cummington Massachusetts, until now.

Welcome Corey, I've been flying the F550 since Oct of 2012. My full time job is assembling engines for the UH-60. (GE) Read more about my copter and find the link to my photos made from it here: http://aerial-photography-video.blogspot.com/ If you have any question I'll try to help. My e-mail...

Welcome Jason, I'm in Saugus, just north of Boston and I've been flying my DJI F550 for about 14 months. I've amassed a ton of aerial photos made from it using a GoPro. https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/104688579048759425474/albums/5830140850514589025...

Another Massachusetts flier here. I've been flying a DJI F550 for over a year and I publish a ton or aerial photos to the Web. Mostly to Google+: https://plus.google.com/u/0/104688579048759425474/posts Are you more into video or stills Racer38?

Welcome to the forum. I'd love to see any movies or stills you have on the Web made with your S800. What camera are you flying? Some of my aerial still photography is here: https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/104688579048759425474/albums/5830140850514589025

So are you saying Kloner that the NEX line gets sensor specs even without removing the lens often? Take offs in dusty areas kick up lots of dust. I've been shooting w DSLRS for years and I've cleaned sensors a few times. My old Canon 5D get lots of sensor specs but the sensor on my Canon 7D...

No gimbal needed. What lightweight camera do you recommend Kloner? I need better image quality than my GoPro.

Looking to upgrade the camera I lift with my MR. I understand the Sony NEX cameras will run an app which will fire stills at preset intervals. I don't need a brand new expensive NEX, considering a used one because of the risk involved flying it. Does anyone know what NEX models will...

I understand this is not the best place for this post but the DJI area is very active with lots of user so I thought I might get some good advice from Sony NEX users. I'm looking to fly a Sony NEX. Since I'm considering a used model to keep my cost down, I'm not sure which model I'd need...

Hi, I'm looking to fly a Sony NEX. Since I'm considering a used model to keep my cost down, I'm not sure which model I'd need that has an interval timer capability. I understand the newest models can be loaded with an APP the facilitates an interval timer. Also what are Sony NEX aerial...

I'm looking to improve the quality of stills and secondly, video I make with my MR. Currently use a GoPro Hero 2 on my stock F-550. Stills do not enlarge well. I'm ok with a lightweight rigid mount. I don't need the cost of weight of a maneuverable gimbal at this point. I'm OK with leveling...

Thanks for all the input. I received my new props which I ordered from www.rchover.com http://www.rchover.com/DJI-PROP1038-NEW-4-PCS-2-CW-2-CCW-p/dji-prop1038.htm Total, with shipping cost for 2 sets of 4, $31.49 I got the *new* DJI 1038 props. The blades are much thicker near the hub than...

After breaking a couple of my 9" Graupner E props I need a replacement set and Graupners are out of production. Any recommendations? Also, did DJI fix their failing in flight prop issue? I'm reluctant to by DJI props or use the ones which came with my kit. Thanks in advance for any help. Jim.

Hi Bob, I'm in Saugus and have been flying a DJI F 550 since Oct 2012. Made many GoPro stills with it: https://plus.google.com/photos/104688579048759425474/albums/5830140850514589025 We should meet up sometime and dogfight...kidding. My contact info is on my photos and my G+ profile page is...

Hi and welcome to the forum. I've been flying a DJI F550 since Oct 2012. I do lots of still photography with a rigidly mounted GoPro. I expect to be posting some aerial photos from a trip to Maine later this summer. I've crashed my hexa twice. Tell us more about what you're flying...

Welcome to the forum Brant. I'm not in your area but I'm into aerial photography. To make photos from a GoPro "spectacular" as you say, plan on the need to improve your photos with Photoshop, or some reasonable facsimile. I frequently post my aerial still on Google+...
