Dang! I just bought a new pair for $350. Any opinion on them?

Wow, CopterCam, that's really cool. Thanks for sharing. I have an LX3 as well and I love it. I will have to try something like this.

Sorry, Sid...could you briefly explain how you can trigger a shutter with a mini servo? I don't quite understand.

Great footage! That is some epically beautiful country you're living in.

"Bring it down. Do the opposite to what yer doing" Ha!

@ Droider Very nice footage! where did you take it?

Vancouver, BC, Canada representing!

It's smaller and lighter than the GH2 (great camera!) but doesn't shoot in 24p if that's important to you. 24p gives your footage a very 'filmic' quality. Other than that and lack of a viewfinder and an external mic input, it's a great little camera that I've heard lots of good reports about.

@ Droider...why the heavy use of effects? would have been nice to see the clean footage.

Newb question....is anything TOO wide? I mean by that anything that would have landing gear / rotors in the frame. How do you make a lens decision based on that? I mean, of course, only lenses that don't have zoom. If anyone has specific answers for the GH2 that would be great. I'm looking at...

Hi Droider, I'm very close to pulling the trigger on my new Mikrokopter but I've been so wishy-washy I'm probably driving the guys at Quadrocopter nuts. I was first set on the OktoXL then the Okto2 then the Hexa, and so on. After reading your posts and some other info on the Y designs I'm...

Has anyone had any experience with the (for lack of a technical term) over/under motor/props like the Droidworx ADX-4 or ADX-3? How would they compare with having the motors all on separate arms? What would be the advantage? Disadvantage?

I managed to find this thread on dpreview so it looks like it's being worked on. Here is a link to the article eoshd.com

That was quick. Nice to see there are people trying to get the most out of the Panasonic cameras.

Thanks, Guys! er...what's ARF? My best guess would be Almost Ready to Fly? Chris

I'm going to be building an Okto2 and I'm very excited and a bit scared. I have no experience with soldering and I don't want to cook anything! If there is anyone in the Lower Mainland here that can solder, let me know. I can't wait to fly! (weather permitting of course, on the rainy west...

yeeps! I think I'll stay away from custom wiring for now...maybe after my build I will have more confidence doing something like that.

Thanks, Sid! I guess I'll stick with the additional FPV cam.

Newb question here. I will be building an Okto2 soon (Yaaaay!) and I'm wondering about connecting my camera to the FPV transmitter. If I can avoid getting a seperate FPV cam I would like to.
