SleepyC in response to Benjamin Rowlands success/failures with Alex mos..... "I feel so much better i’m not the only one going through insanity with these things. I thought maybe I was just a moron!" I am in the same boat. It is nice to hear it's not all good with peeps using the alexmos...

I use Adobe Premier and Sony Vegas Pro. I tend to lean more towards Vegas for many things as it's fast and you can mix formats on a time line plus they have some pretty good audio tools. There are times, I use both along with AfterEffects. I'm not a cloud person, so I'm using the CS5.5...

For people like me, maybe someone would like to write a short piece on 3DRobotics, APM and Pixhawk. Little about the company (from their website, 3D Robotics is a VC-backed startup with over 170 employees in North America and more than 26,000 customers worldwide. 3DR has business offices in...

Unfortunate usage of the phrase "well documented" on my part. Too fast of an answer on my part . I apologize for that. Busy day here with dinner and watching my MSU Spartans in the Rose Bowl (they won!). I thought by just linking that thread where there were a couple explanations of the...

Well documented issue. Try it again and use internet explorer, not fire fox. If not, here is one of a few threads that discuss the ways to the firmware done. http://www.multirotorforums.com/showthread.php?15633-SuperX-Configurator-Error

I'd second pretty much everything Quinton mentioned a couple posts earlier. Ideal shutter speed is 2x your recording frame rate. If you shooting 25 fps, then 50 is you optimal shutter speed. 50p then 100 on the shutter. For more different looks, you can go up as Quiton says with the...

Does this mean that you upgraded / flashed a radian with the G-Lock software, and purchased 1 BLD module to run 2 axis, and a 2nd BLD module to run the 3rd axis? Is this for brushless motors or is this setup for servo's.

I think you will be very happy with your decision. And you did get a good price on the motors.

"we're going to make the heli into a two man rig with a three axis camera capability.......yes, with an F450! so you'll be able to take it to the park, hand the camera duties over to your kid, your friend, your coaching buddy and they'll be able to direct the camera action while you fly...

I just found the above before checking back on this thread. Now re-reading it for 2nd time. Here's what I think will work and a couple questions 1. Purchase the FrSky TFR8s receiver. From their description..... Bind it to my 8fg. Connect CH1 & CH2 of TFR8-S by a jumper, then CH3 will be...

Frequency is set to multi2. I'm looking for help on how to connect to Futaba receiver. On 8fg, channels 9, 10, 11, 12 say aux 1. I know how to set those channels to a switch or knob to it. I just know how to hook into the receiver for channels 9 -12. On the naza, I have sbus on receiver...

I've read the manual and spent a fair amount of time on the internet. Still don't understand how to get beyond 8 channels with my Super 8fg and R6208SB. Looking for advice on the different ways to get another a total of 11 or 12 channels. Pitch, (future yaw), maybe retracts, and camera...

There is more than just this thread on their website. This is the home of the original gh2/gh3 hack. Some good stuff, but you might have to read a lot of posts.... http://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/7091/gh3-best-video-settings

Steve, is your octo an x8? On your converted 2-axis cinestar gimbal, is your roll motor direct or belt driver?

The 14-42mm panny lens works with IS, It's very light and image quality is average. Its' also small so filters are inexpensive and somewhat disposable. The IS has to be triggered from the camera, there is no hardware switch on lens so IS won't work on the BlackMagic Pocket camera, but does on...

I just heard about the g-lock last week. Did a quick check but didn't get a feel for the costs. Any estimates on what the electronics are going to run and what's needed? I do see lots of decent video on Vimeo and Youtube from the Alexmos based gimbals. It would be nice to hear from some of...

What puzzles me is I got video I was happy with earlier in the summer. But I can't get back to where I was before making some changes. I'm building a 3rd mr now. When done, I'm going to put my HFP FC back on the x8 and give it a try again. On the HFP, I had the gains dialed down so to make it...

Put ferrite rings on both ends of IMU, and gimbal motors at Alexmos side. Put 8 ferrite rings on the my 40amps ESC's. Still get some slight jittering. I have 3 gimbals I've messed with using 2 alexmos controllers. Also have 1 Tarot gorpo gimbal. Tarot pretty much plug and play and works...

I had my f450 at a little under 2150 grams AUW. Use 30amp simonk esc's with Tiger 2216 900kva motors and 10" APC 10x4.5 props. Flies like butter and motors never come down warm. Extended it to 550 with aluminum arms. That is my current 2150 g of weight. Still flies great. 1- 5000mAh 4s...

The youtube person/channel has 12 aerial video's. Just scanning them, there are 2 crashes listed. 2 out of 12 videos is about 16.6 % . Not good. Why would anyone with any common sense fly over crowds when they can't keep their MR in the air 100% of the time? The consequences to the sport...
