    How crashworthy is Zenmuse?

    As I work in a time critical industry I can appreciate something working pretty much out of the box especially when compared to something that requires a lot of setting up. If thats the case with the Zen v AV200 then I will shut my cake hole and go climb under a rock ;) I still think its a lot...

    How crashworthy is Zenmuse?

    Id expect it to be practically atomic bomb proof for the amount of money they are charging for it, £2500!!!!!!. Its an extra £600-£700 more than buying the S800 fully loaded including a WKM-M with GPS. Yes, I know its a 'Pro' camera mount, but so is the Photo Higher Av200 Pro and with Skyline...

    Hi from South Yorkshire, UK

    Thanks for the advice Steve, its given me something to think about. I was tempted to just go for as big as I could afford, however, given my previous experience I felt this would have ended in disaster. Btw, I used to be stationed in Kinloss back in the day lol

    Hi from South Yorkshire, UK

    Hey Guys and Gals, I just wanted to say Hi, Im a complete Newbie to Multicopters/Drones, although I have some experience with Remotely Operated Vehicles. I was wondering where exactly to start. I don't own any equipment as yet, but I do have a firm idea as to where I want to go with it...
