Nice stable platform but the image appears soft ? Are you using the GoPro HD in its protective housing ? Make sure the lense and housing lense are clean. Do a test from your hand and compare images. If there is no apparent improvement then there appears to be a problem with your GoPro. Mine is...

Do not despair........ there is always the 'shirt button held on the shutter release with a rubber band' approach. Set it on 'Burst' (continuous) mode, make sure you have a big SD card if you intend to fly for a length of time ? Sid

Mount a servo on the camera so that the arm can depress the shutter and use an Aux. channel on Rx and assign to the Flap or whatever is available on the Tx and adjust travel as necessary. I have used some shirt buttons placed on the shutter release with double sided tape to give some extra...

If you have a spare channel you could always use a mini servo............ I use one and it works flawlessly. Sid

One has to commend the considerable restraint excercised by the Pilot........ a 1000 Euro just gone on the wind. Reminds me of the unfortunate individual from Scotland who lost a 50K Draganflyer on its maiden, apparently he mistook the need to lock on to Satellites before flight ? Wonder if it...

Dave, Well done ! .................. I can understand what you're doing with the effects and it does work in parts but the Scottish Tourist Board wont like it ? That area is fantastic and it is enticing me to get back on the bike. Editing HD is a bit of a labour so hats off...

Bart, Thanks for that,.............. sounds very encouraging ! Sid

Dave, Can't help MikroJ,................ but what about a 'Wanted and For Sale' category on the Forum. It seems that many are upgrading at such a rapid rate there must be lots of gear sitting idle ? Maybe, you can run this by Bart at your next 'Meeting' ? Sid.

Looking to upgrade to 'decent' motors for my X4 and looking at potential motors for a proposed X8 build when the new 'wonderboard' is released ? I can't stretch to 8 AXI's without selling some vital organ, so was thinking of the Avroto's who claim these are suitable for professional AV...

Jeff, Stunning subject beautifully captured............... was it the GH2 ? Sid

Now ! .............. here is a plug for my next Camera, Panasonic GH 2, there are many lenses available. From memory it can be bought in a 16 or 20mm bundle. The GH 1 has been hacked to shoot 3K video and from reports the GH 2 is been worked on ......... ! It is small and light so it...

The Gaui 330X in its stock form will lift a GoPro camera without problem. However, if you add a 450 size frame to the stock power config. one can increase the stability considerably, particularly in light wind. http://vimeo.com/23570784 Here is an example with a Sunex lense conversation.(not...

Ross, Impressive looking motor and well speced for the money. I take it you are going Octo. ? Which FCB are you going with ? Sid

That link is not working for me ? It is now ???

Edouard, Welcome, great to have somebody from 'OpenPilot' contribute. I have been looking forward to the release of this FCB, right from 'Dankers' first post about this project on another Forum. Hope this board is the gamechanger it promises to be..........? Sid

Yes, ...... not a good idea if doing immersive FPV (not LoS) and image capture through a one person operation. On occasions, I have used MyVu Shades, goggles which allow Los and a glance at the screens for framing. I have seen some examples of AV with the GoPro HD using immersive FPV and...

Great find ........... Thanks for posting ! Will be interesting to see the outcome of this endeavour ? Sid

Bart, Very Nice ! Did you frame it with your FPV ? Sid

It has the Premiere Pro Lense correction................. The other software is from a German guy and I got the impression that it is still in the evolution stage and is primarily for video

I knew the GH1 had been hacked and is now capable of a phenomenal 3K Video output but I was under the impression that Panasonic had taken steps to ensure the same fate did not befall the GH2. Something to do with the need to preserve the integrity of their Video cameras such as the AF100 ...
