It seems to me that there is one big obvious thing here that no one has commented on... you weren't even outside, you were flying this from the porch of an apartment complex, correct? I hate to sound like the old man of the bunch, but please don't do that again. It's very stupid. You are...

I don't believe those work today, Yuri. Doesn't Immersion stuff use the airwave board, and Iftron not? I know when I set up my FPV gear, and then latter added to it, I had to get all Immersion TX to be compatible with my FatShark goggles. Do they not have a list of the frequencies used by each...

Ok, great. That's at least 3 so far, awesome start!

Pretty cool story.

Hey Bart.. you down for a meet up?

Yup, I think we have enough in the area to pull it off now. Between Maryland, DC/NOVA, PA, and New Jersey there are several of us. Let's start a quick headcount as to who would be interested, and we can pick a place based on where everyone is from. There are a few others that I have spoke to...

I've got a couple of ideas brewing up. This is going to be a fun contest. ;-)

I think you've inspired me to take the leap. One last question about the 90 though. How do you like the image stabilization? That seems to be the only thing that might make me want the 95 instead. I'm not to concerned about HD video since I have a few solutions for that already. Do you have much...

That's awesome to hear. I've been looking at the same set up. How do you like it so far? Anything you don't like about it?

Those are some nice look shots there, JT. What type of camera are you using, and how do you trigger it?

I personally think that the DJI & XAircraft props are one in the same. They both have the unique hub shape and both have had lots of problems with breakage during flight. Have a look at the "exploding props" thread over in the XA forum and see what you think.

Thanks! I'm all GoPro so far. I want to move onto a different camera, but I have my set up working so well that it's hard to rip it apart and start over again. I did just recently get a non-fisheye lens for the new GoPro2. Maybe that will keep me around for a little while, at least this season...

I've been meaning to start this same thread for a while now. Glad to see you did it as I'm a lazy a$$ and would have waited another few weeks. This is a couple I shot last weekend at the legendary "Boh Towers" in Baltimore. I did it total renegade style with out permission or anything. The...

This is a test for a shot I'm trying to get. The clouds didn't work with me today, but I wanted to at least see how it would frame out. I'll probably come back when the conditions are better and get it again. The man on the building is Mr. Boh, the logo from Natty Boh beer. He's considered...

That's a big reason why I'm switching to the Futaba... my spektrum can't properly do failsaft on a DJI set up. I have a few things downtown that I'm going to shoot, but they are a little high up and I don't want to try with out a proper failsafe.

I use my Spektrum 2.4 in the city all the time. Never had a problem yet. I actually just got a Futaba 8fg, so I'll be testing that in the city real soon also. -Terry

The first red flag I saw was when they made the statement that they use a hexacopter for redundancy and that you could lose up to 2 motors (out of 6) and still land safely. Kickstarter pulled this project. -Terry

That's a great compliment to that kit. First time build together and flying in a matter of hours. Good job DJI. ;-) Thanks for sharing that! -Terry

This is a great idea, Seadog. It's important to document findings anytime you are troubleshooting a problem. -Terry

They actually make a standard tripod mounting plate for it. http://www.amazon.com/GoPro-Tripod-Mount-HERO-Cameras/dp/tags-on-product/B002RCLYXG
