You can at least do something about that. This is an excellent tutorial for those who want to risk loosing the hitherto ambiguous warrantee that GoPro offers. This camera now becomes a serious contender

I did not find the sharpness at infinity that much of a problem if you use the sharpen feature in Cineform. It is the distortion that requires some work. I have a couple of 3+ and one is better than the other at infinity for some reason. : You can also use Mercali.

No expense spared on the motors I see. less than 10 bucks each.

I fly in winds of up to 12 m/sec. after that it is possible to fly with smaller props. but if I want good results then I wait for better conditions. The wind here can be very strong at times. I would probably use my TDR if it was essential to get a job done in extreme conditions. What makes the...

I have dozens of models that were designed to do specific jobs, some of those jobs were thought to be impossible. That is what I call R&D. It is what makes Red Bull better than Ferrari and Mercedes. It is a reflection of how that company can make and test 500 design changes every week to the...

The whole point is that you can do everything that you will ever be asked to shoot with a small quad like a Phantom and a GoPro with a 3 axis gimbal. Whether you create the resolution with the glass or with software matters not as far as the client is concerned. If it looks right then it is...

I have just finished the filtering template to not only correct the fish eye but corrected it to photogrammetric standards. I have also almost finished shooting the Girne Harbor at night section for the XXXXXXX. You may be a little surprised at the sharpness, color, stability and the ability to...

Bart you should have spent 50 usd and bought a Turdigy-9 and flashed it with ER9X.using a smarty pants and back screen light. Then used the king... Dragon Link.

The penny finally dropped with DJI, the new Phantom will have a switch.

No reason why it should not work but It would make more sense to have a cable from your monitor taking the signal to a pair of fatsharks etc. I prefer to fly using a monitor but sometimes the client wants to see the video goggles. If you want to have two separate cameras i.e. one fpv. only. then...

Fact is that if you have perfectly balanced motors and props. you need only the very hard rubbers or none at all with a Phantom.

That makes sense, Chromatic Aberration is generally more common in larger lenses for larger sensors especially when wide open. Being smaller makes it easier to get the focussing over a large depth of field and control Chromatic Aberration. I expect that the Sharpness feature in Cineform was put...

Stacky I have not seen that problem yet, I have a second camera that I will try today and see if I can find any grounds for that conclusion. Some people screw-up with everything you give them so I would take that with a pinch of salt. The Cineform Studio software has some interesting features...

The final conclusion is that the Phantom really needs a third pan axis. This 2.7 K footage has no post stab. but shows some unwanted pan movements when not in perfectly calm conditions. The only thing changed was the saturation which was given a slight increase as vimeo tends to flatten the...

Regulation here in Cyprus is a bit different as AP is only allowed after an application is made to the Dept. of Civil Aviation, the Army and the Police. whether it is flown by microlight, full size aircraft or UAV. That said people do still carry out the odd illegal operation, however. As I was...
