    Looks to me as if you have a vibration problem. The camera is being held pretty well in both Roll and Tilt, so PL seems to be doing its main job OK. The vibration is also evident in the PL OFF part of the clip. It shows up as wavy wobbles in the image or 'jello'. Perhaps PL is set a little bit...

    It looks like ovdt does not have to deal with too much official interference in Turkey, unlike the 'West' which is infested with officialdom and general busybodies. ovdt: what happened with that last one? It looks like you got a small attack of the jello vibes.

    It should be so simple! I have been through all the GH2 menus and I do not find anything weird there. What is baffling is that the HDMI output works fine when connected to an HDMI equipped TV or monitor but not with the converter during record. All I get during record is a blue screen. The same...

    Actually, I meant keeping an eye out for other aircraft. I am dreading the day when a light plane is brought down by an fpv MR. The fpv MR pilot is unaware of anything else but what he sees in his goggles and, at the same time, the MR itself would be invisible to a light aircraft pilot until...

    I hope you have a buddy looking out for aircraft when you do these mile high stunts.

    I entirely agree with all that Denny. I have sometimes to go back to original camera files to ascertain whether a particular shot was taken with the Canon 5D or the Pentax Optio P&S! The Optio on the smaller MR gives me nearly eighteen minutes in the air. And your last comment is spot on. My...

    Ooops, didn't see there was another page with all the answers.

    There are a number of videos on the rotorpics website that explain installation and configuration procedures. Take the time to download them all to your computer so that you can refer to them at any time. Also download and install the latest firmware update. There is also a video on how to...

    OK. I get it. That is a GoPro artifact.

    I liked it. I got a bit distracted by whatever you were doing at 1:37 with pasted on leaves or something - you did it again at 2:42 - and small shame the props came into view later on. Lovely spot with the house and lake.

    Denny is right. The novelty of having an image shot from the air wears off frighteningly quickly - if it hasn't largely done so already. After that the attention shifts back to the basic artistry of the photography. Light and composition. Half an hour can make the difference between 'OK' and...

    ...and the next one will ask why you didn't go higher! Are we allowed to critique without upsetting anyone? Here is what I think. To be honest, looking from an estate agent's point of view I would have to agree with him. Pic #2 is a good height, as are the last two of the office block. The...

    No. Too many other things to get done that day. The weather is so piss-unreliable that stuff piles up waiting to get checked out when the wind/rain stops for more than 20 minutes.

    Interesting. I had precisely the same problem with the big heli. Everything seemed to be working reasonably well until the camera rolled and tilted off to the right and stayed there. It would not react to any commands and necessitated landing and turning PL off and on again. It did it twice...

    Which hack and is it reliable?

    The following will be plainly clear to many but may just be enlightening for some. It is addressed to the latter - with apologies to the former for stating the bleeding obvious! I get the feeling that there may be something that some perhaps do not understand about setting up stabilisation on a...

    Not sure we are talking about the same thing here. I have E-STOP/AUTO/GTH on one three position switch (AUX1) - all of which function correctly - and Pan Manual/Auto on a second two position switch (AUX2). It is the Pan Manual/Auto function that is misbehaving. When switched to 'Manual' (or...

    What firmware are you running? HD55 displays those symptoms for proportional servos unless SLEW is selected. If you are not already there move to v56.75 OR go back to v.055 or vE055.
