    Your best shot is at 1:53. I do not know which mount stabilisation system you have but both MK and Picloc display the same tendency for the Roll axis to lean with the direction of travel - thus putting the horizon even further out of kilter. What dude? I watched end to end and I didn't see any...

    S800 alternative props

    I bought some Gemfan 15x5 wooden props on the strength of Denny's recommendation and took them off again because there appeared to be no change in the degree of vibration and wobble of the skids (due to the loose play in the Secraft retracts). This not to say I will not try the Gemfans again...

    Tuned s800 with GH3

    Haven't seen that video but I do remember the aerial footage from a previous KW post - Sony CX730 was the camera, CS8 airframe and maybe Radians stabilising the mount. I remember commenting on a dirty lens or filter blemish dancing around making it look suspiciously post-stabilised. Needless to...

    Tuned s800 with GH3

    No, not a good idea. We need you and Kopterworx' resources to keep testing everything for us and showing what stuff works. Besides, if you start deleting videos I'll miss those awful spectacles ! :)

    Tuned s800 with GH3

    This is what I am doing (ready-to-fly): DJI-S800/WKM/Z15/Retracts + GensACE 6S 10,000, Secraft gimbal suspension and folding mast bracket (like yours), GH2/14mm w/ lens hood, FPV cam, Stinger 500 downlink Tx, sun reflector and skid foams - but no anti-vibe systems = 7261g. I would say that...

    Tuned s800 with GH3

    Well talk about bells and whistles plus belt & braces Krleas! All the go-faster goodies you can think of crammed in there plus the KW anti-vibe kit AND the Secraft Starship Invaders boom braces as well. Phew ! Can't sit around and be outdone by old Krleas so ... (Sorry to post this vid again...

    PC or Mac?

    Aye Yup Dave ! Come on now. Don't bottle it up. Why don't you tell us how you really feel? :) BTW ... you forgot to mention Picloc !!:dejection:

    PC or Mac?

    Nuthin like a good ole Mac vs PC session. I stand fairly and squarely on the right side of the fence with a computer that does it all and does it all nicely and doesn't send me into fits of frustration every single time I turn it on or look like some 1970's orphan. Huh? Sorry ... ? ... Oh...

    S800 / WKM / Z15 : ideal WKM gains? Is FW5.20 reliable?

    I will wait for these new u/c damper fasteners and evaluate them. I only bought the complete S800/WKM/Z15 package because the Droidworx XM etc kits were not available to buy right at the time I needed it for the Kenya trip. The WKM has many good points, with its easy to install modular design...

    S800 / WKM / Z15 : ideal WKM gains? Is FW5.20 reliable?

    Interesting video from DJI. Like the first comment "Great, more stuff we need to buy to get the S800 to work!". Not really sure why everyone is bitching about it. Treat it as an upgrade following development. Happens with everything. I'll get it as soon as it is available. I have tried...

    S800 / WKM / Z15 : ideal WKM gains? Is FW5.20 reliable?

    There must be a whole load of bog standard S800/WKM/Z15 setups out there and I suspect that very few folks use the default gain values as they all seem a bit high and possibly too reactive for AP. How about those with this standard setup posting their gain settings so that we can get an idea of...

    S800 Anti-Vibration kit : reely scientific evaluation

    No, no, no, no .... Hell, The Flash doesn't bother with that stuff. Let it hang !! Had to borrow those smalls from my friend and his wife.

    S800 Anti-Vibration kit : reely scientific evaluation

    I have not tried the Secraft arm stiffeners, I have only seen the webshop pics. Discounting the love it/hate it Starship Invaders meets Terminator look for a moment, it seems an awfully heavy 'solution' for an already heavy airframe. If easy breakdown and transport is a high priority they would...

    S800 Anti-Vibration kit : reely scientific evaluation

    This was to have been a late entry for the "Why use a Multi-Rotor" competition - except that closed about six months ago - but, as it contains vital and useful information, I have decided to post it anyway. As any S800 operator knows, the DJI S800 with the Wookong M Flight Control...

    Apparently not. Go and buy it and tell us if it works.:)

    DJI WooKong-M New LED With iOS Assistant Software

    This would be so convenient. I absolutely loath having to get out a laptop to change a parameter. It was so wonderfully simple and compact when everything was adjusted within the transmitter. Ahh .... But, as firmware versions are currently tied to a specific software, or at least 'optimised'...

    Zenmuse Mods

    I am giving the Secraft Z15 isolated mounting system a try out ... http://www.secraft.net/shop/step1.php?number=1367 http://www.secraft.net/shop/step1.php?number=1365 But to be honest I don't think it is going to be any good. The Zen is certainly more isolated from the frame than with the...

    Doesn't it make a huge difference when you have a Zen? You can actually start concentrating on being creative without endlessly buggering about with the gimbal. As for video treatment, less is usually more - but then I think you have already figured that out ! There has been a problem for some...
