    Set of five S800 v1 booms with ESC's

    I was going to remove all the ESC's to install in EVO booms and messed up removing the first one. So decided to just buy a set of ESC's for the EVO's. That is why there are only five booms here. They function perfectly (as perfectly as V1 booms can) and could be useful either as complete spare...

    I really liked that. Nice presentation. What did you edit that with?

    It has taken a while for this to get published. Partnered up with Aerial Visioneering of Atlanta, Georgia to film the aerials for this Norfolk Southern music video last March. When I say 'aerials', it was actually more like jib, crane and tracking moves. Anywhere there is a moving camera -...

    S800 foldable GPS mount

    If anybody else is reading this who wants to fit one of those jolly little hinged GPS mast mounts, just drill out the hole in the existing central standoff and re-tap it for the M3 thread. I mean, jeez ... it is a pretty simple fix!

    T-Motor 15x5 carbon props for S800 - risky.

    You'd think so wouldn't you!

    T-Motor 15x5 carbon props for S800 - risky.

    So I tried a set of these and yes, they do sound different to the stock DJI S800 props. They lack the aggressive buzz. But otherwise I saw nothing different with performance. What I didn't like, because the T-Motor props are slightly longer than the standard DJI props, was the really small...

    DJI Released New Firmware 5.24 for WKM

    I wonder what 'AVM' refers to? So confusing these days. Everything is reduced to initials. I upgraded to 5.22 from 5.18 when I installed the IMUv2 (more initials), mainly to take advantage of the BT LED (and more initials!). I was unaware that my iPhone 4 was not compatible so I had to buy my...

    That's more like it. Some creativity, some good flying and no 'joke' cameras.

    Steady on chaps. What is this? The Mutual Admiration Society? And what am I missing here? GoPro's and RED's in the same sentence discussing the merits of resolution? Frankly, that GoPro footage looks as pig-ugly as any other GoPro footage with its awful barrel distortion and rampant rolling...

    AerialMediaPros.com Roll position off on Zenmuse Z15 gimbal "FIX"

    Good Luck with that. Perhaps Aerial Media Pros ought to try this procedure before posting?

    Sony Nex-5n - downlink

    Velly interlesting comment, coz I have white ones and they all work perfickly ... viz: http://www.multirotorforums.com/showthread.php?3054-Panasonic-GH2-general-and-hack-info-base&p=40509#post40509 ... and they were not particularly difficult to adapt. Go back to 'Skivvie's lesson'

    Made me smile when the music started. It is not often that we hear Grieg as the soundtrack around here. I used 'Morning' for one of the very early tests with the AD-8, a Sony NEX-5n and a regular old MK SLR-2 camera mount controlled by the MK FC. I guess yours is more appropriate as you were...

    I like that. A good and proper use of the remote helicam platform. Good flying for a tricky subject and good camera work. Love the fog!

    DJI New Spool up throttle response- Need Option to turn off

    Those of you coming from the SR world will be familiar with governors to control the rotor-head speed and therefore the concept of electronically controlled blade rotation speed is not so foreign. Still referring to SR operation, throttle stick movement between idle and governor activation is as...

    Folding GPS on s800 EVO

    Just be aware that the threaded part is M3, not the M2.5 of the S800 centre post.

    DJI Released New Firmware 5.24 for WKM

    Fair enough. But like you say, if one wants performance flight, do it with a single rotor. I don't look at MR's as anything else but a camera platform. I guess that is why I wrote that.

    DJI Released New Firmware 5.24 for WKM

    I always do. It should be a habit whenever you make any changes to airframe, FC or component layout.

    DJI Released New Firmware 5.24 for WKM

    Well, there have been at least five positive comments, all basically giving 5.24 the green light. How many do you need before you venture out? The only non-positive that I have seen talks about a tendency to drift to the side. Remember, Lanzar was going to go back to 5.16 to check whether it...

    Some of this footage has already been shown in the Baguettee Western clip. This clip includes a bit more of the Mer de Sable theme park footage after an abbreviated 'Train Attack' section. What is particularly interesting is how stable the video is with the strength of the wind. Look at the...
