    Hi there from Quebec City, Canada

    Flight Times Vs Weight Opinions

    Hi there, You are definitely overloaded with your set-up. Just mention a 4500 mAH + a 1300 mAh Lipo on a F450 and your are pretty much busting for weight. DJI recommands 400 gr per motors so the F450 max T/O weight is 1600 g et F550 2400g. A usual battery for this set up is 2200 mAh to 3500...

    Which do you prefer? Flying through Goggles or Monitors?

    This makes a lot of sense and explain why most people are sitting down doing FPV. I have been standing up and moving around a bit being. I also felt funny/dizzy a couple times. My next hobby purchase will be a lawn chair! (Ha! Ha!) Can't wait to try sitting down. I will let you know how it...

    Which do you prefer? Flying through Goggles or Monitors?

    That is a good question and It seems different from one person to another. I have personally started following the good advice from kloner and got a 7 in. monitor. It works great and I am very happy with it. Framing videos is now a charm. My monitor is installed on a fully extended tripod and...

    Need a battery guru

    Gee, I am no Guru but I very much like your calculations, seems logical and I agree with your conclusion. What do you need a guru for? :)

    Naza went weird

    No, it wasn't playing music anymore, it had just stopped which led me to believe that the initialization was completed....Wrong it seems, it still needs a few seconds to conplete te set up process. From now on, I will power the beast exactly where it will take off. Taking no more chances...

    Hi Yves, Nice to see you around. Just to mention that I am still interested to do a product...

    Hi Yves, Nice to see you around. Just to mention that I am still interested to do a product review for you (5.8 Ghz DJI video downlink) but, as you are well aware, its been quite cold and windy and this reduces my flying quite a bit. Still getting my 2-3 flying session per week as weather...

    Naza went weird

    Funny you mentionned, just happened to me yesterday. First prop broken in a good 7 - 8 months. As it turned out, I should have known that something was wrong. I could hear one prop spinning much faster than the others but thought that it would settle down as I advance the throttle. Nope, never...

    Canada - License requirements for commercial aerial photography

    Hi Rory, To answer your question, no, I have not gone through the process as I am only flying and filming for recreational purposes so far. The rules and regulations governing the commercial use of UAV in Canada are quite demanding and does not allow an operator to turn on a dime, sort to...

    USA insurance

    Hi Kloner, I am not up to speed with MR insurance in the States but I can tell you how things work in the full size business. I would be surprised if it is any different for UAV and MR. First off, most of the time, the Law requires you to be covered for second party liability. This way...
