    How to train your camera operator

    Exactly how we started Pete, about the same time to! & yes I agree 100%..my fiancee is to quiet for me, I like to know where to go & only she can direct me! We now have 2 way walkie talkies & I use VOX (voice operated transmission), so I can keep both hands on the transmitter. Ross

    How to train your camera operator

    Practice, pratice & more practice. Good idea for a sim, but I think with phoenix you can select an internal view..try with a coax heli (blade) & just use trimms to turn it, I'm sure that would be very close to what we are after. Ross

    Airport X rays and the trouble they cause ....

    Lucky it was when coming home, just imagine going away to do a shoot overseas..you get there & promptly crash due to xrays!!!! Nasty stuff guys, glad you got it all sussed. I'm sure there is a way to get MR's through customs without it having to be xrayed. I used to travel to the states with...

    Just do the set XY level & then autotune, that works best for some reason. Ross
