You have to adjust the positioning of the camera when you change the lens in order to maintain balance. When you use the 18-55 lens, the whole camera sits back further in the gimbal and there is plenty of space to use the HDMI cable mentioned. With the 16mm lens, the HDMI plug gets in the way of...

Will this work with a futaba t8fg?

Exactly what I said.

This is pretty hilarious. I'm sure that the $1.5k gimbal that this phone is sitting in has nothing to do with the quality of the footage, it's all about Nokia's OIS. :highly_amused...

Nice one. Thanks for sharing that!

Some interns are paid, but most are not. I usually take a software development intern every summer. This will be the first year that I haven't in a little while. The one that worked for me last year is interning for IBM this year and making very good money doing so. He is really a bright kid...

How do you export the settings? I didn't realize that was possible. I was just talking with my buddy that flies APM the other day and he does the same thing for 3s vs 4s flights.

I'd bet it was him. He has some type of post stabilization that has a unique look about it, and this matches that pretty well.

Agreed. I had the same problem last weekend when I was setting this thing up. I had the range on the knob way to hight and I was able to take off with the gains twice what they should have been. I tuned it in now though with a range of only 30... -10 or +20 from my starting center point. I'm...

It has been that way for some time now. 2015 is when they are supposed to pass regulations. http://www.businessinsider.com/faa-ban-on-commercial-drones-2013-3

Please avoid double posts. I see that you just posted the exact thing in the OpenPilot forum. Judging from the topic of your post, I don't think that forum means what you might think. In case you are not aware, commercial flight is not allowed in the US. You can not simply post a help wanted...

I'm not sure if you are aware, but commercial flight is not allowed in the US. You can't simply hire a person for a part time job as a pilot.

I'm trying to work an APM build into my schedule soon. My buddy that I fly with all the time has one on a home H-quad. It's fantastic. Way points, loiter, nice and stable... it rocks!

Thanks for the input, Chris. I ended up getting 5.16, but I haven't tested it yet. Hopefully these winds will die down around sunset. I don't need any of the newer features, I never use them. All I need is solid performance of the FC itself. I can fly my own circles around things. ;-) So what...

Hey all, I haven't had my Hexa AP rig out much since last Fall. I spent the winter flying FPV or working on my AP set up. I'm still on old firmware (5.12) and wanted to upgrade to something a little newer, but stable. Any recommendations? I see a lot of people using 5.16 or 5.18. I don't need...

It's a nation wide club that builds these. Pretty serious stuff. Some of those things run up to $40k.

I was at Robot Fest today and ran into an old friend. These guys going to incredible lengths to build these. Now I want to build an FPV R2 unit.
