    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    Whoops! Seems like it is the Pan axis that has been accidentally corrupted this time. I used to have that problem with the magnetometer. When activated it would sweep around and face South - regardless of the heading when the system was powered up. It is now different. When the mag. is enabled...

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    A new wrinkle with v56.75 Manual Pan is that it does not entirely disable stabilisation. Yesterday (with the big heli) the Pan stabilisation was working pretty well during hover with fishtailing and stopping & starting, but going for a run with Pan on manual the Pan axis still tried to...

    Particularly useful for those blessed with four arms and two heads, who can now realise their full potential and fly and gawp at data at the same time.

    cameras with live preview out function

    I entirely empathise. I too do not like the separate framing camera option. Not least because it is such a crappy solution in such a technological age. Jes1111's easy link shows a pretty exhaustive list of LiveView equipped cameras but, I see that both the Sony NEX and Panasonic GH2 are listed...

    Panasonic GH2 general and hack info base

    I used the HDMI converter with the NEX-5n not so long ago for a photo job and discovered that the gentLED i/r shutter release would not work if the camera was set to auto-focus. It would release the shutter once and any subsequent attempts produced a mild focus-hunt but did not release the...

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    ** George for Vice-President ** v56.75 is working like a charm. Hunt'n'Twitch have left the building! This is the On-Axis installation on the Copterworks heli mount and is only bench tested at this stage. The AV200 will be updated soon and I will send in my report, Sir. My next request to my...

    What is the link for v56.75? 'The usual place' seems to have moved.

    I'll be looking out for your report. It would not surprise me to learn that I have bought the one-in-five-hundred-thousand lemon converter !

    Panasonic GH2 general and hack info base

    It seems I am not alone with my GH2 HDMI issues. I noticed a mention of it somewhere on the 'personal-view' pages and again here on a NAB 2012 report: "... Panasonic are in major trouble if they don’t release a camera in the next year that has better performance than the GH2 (ideally that...

    Panasonic GH2 general and hack info base

    Dammit! This is the second GH2 and this HDMI issue is identical to the first GH2. I'll have to buy another converter in case that is the problem. The converter I have looks absolutely identical to yours. None of this really explains why the 5D and the NEX HDMI outputs function without issue...

    Panasonic GH2 general and hack info base

    This is now the second GH2. I still cannot monitor video during record via the converter. It works okay for playback of previously recorded video but not for regular live preview or whilst recording. Yet it works in both cases with an HDMI equipped LCD monitor. When you tested yourGH2 with the...

    Panasonic GH2 general and hack info base

    Well I have just spent a few hours trawling through personal-view in an attempt to get a handle on 'The GH2 Hacks' and far from clearing the mists of ignorance it has created even more confusion. As I understand it the ball was set rolling by Vitaliy Kiselev who wrote the PC program 'pTool' that...

    Panasonic GH2 general and hack info base

    Those last three videos were taken with the Sony CX 730? The third one does not have the same crispness of the first two. The thing that concerns me about the FPV fraternity is that a few of them will start to get so intrusive in their efforts to be more and more daring that sooner or later...

    Panasonic GH2 general and hack info base

    What results Boris? Have you finally found a reliable and consistent working solution? I have finally got hold of a GH2 and now need to quickly determine whether to keep this one or not. After seeing the Sony CX 730/760 vids in your other thread I might be back on the fence. Yeah, that about...

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    You responded before I could edit my previous answer. Just to be clear, and to avoid confusion or unnecessarily casting aspersions upon PL, all of issues related to a 3X on the Copterworks Heli Camera Mount. When PL was functioning it actually did a pretty good job of stabilising the mount. The...

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    The latest beta firmware is 56.72. I tried it and there was no change. All three axes twitched occasionally, but predominantly Tilt and Roll, and Roll kept gently moving around. HOWEVER, following a suggestion from George, at one point the camera mount was powered up WITHOUT the Tx. This...

    Mikrokopter MK Firmware 0.88 online now

    Don't fret Ross. They all walk around in public wearing pants! You know what, without getting into the whole American Anglish thang, and the fact that they cannot spell properly :dejection:, I have often wondered what word they use to describe cutting a channel in a plank of wood. We would say...

    Galaxy 3X - Heavy Lift Octo

    You know what? I just realised. You have the DJI in there. No MK stacks or Power Board and the ESC's are by the motors. No wonder it looks so uncluttered!
