Nice find Jake, looks like a gopro eater ;) Ross

Steve, Have a word with the guys at Lossy, ask for a lift to Cosford & you'll be sorted! I'm sure the station commander wouldn't mind to much, tell him its for a military MR meeting ;) On a serious note...you are a ways out my friend, bit like me down here in deepest darkest Debon ;) Ross

Nice one Bart....now who do I complain to about the crap WX here in the UK :( Ross

I got it now I think Bart, I'm sure I could just shim it as it stands to get it right...I really must check the CofG as well while I'm at it ;) Ross

I would love to enter Bart but reading the rules puts me as a 2 person operator out of the running..my photo would be from my octo, but I dont operate the camera :( I might be able to use the fiancee's canon point & shoot on auto mode I suppose, but that means a loss of quality for me :( Ross

Hey Gunter, thats pretty smooth mate, nicely done. Iris, thanks for the explanation...so a 3CCD camera shouldnt suffer with rolling shutter. What gets me is that my gopro doesnt show half the vibrations that my panasonic does ;) Ross

I'm with you now Bart, I think that should work nicely for me. Going to give that a try the minute we get soem half decent weather ;) Thanks for your tip by the way, that seems a quick & easy route...wicked ;) Ross

Somewhere between Swindon & Birmingham would be about middle I would have thought Dave. Yes you're right, it's the cost that prevents me to. the way I see it is that the CAA are causing me a loss of earnings with there 1 approving body, so something has to be done & fast! If others are like me &...

I shot video on Thursday as well :(

starting to feel left out aren't we Gunter ;) Bloody WX :( Ross

Almost forgot, when the weather improves I wouldnt mind shooting my local wind farm.

Sorry, its been sold! Ross

Thanks Alex & Ken. I'm quite sure the FC board is level, so I'll level the frame correctly & re-calibrate again to see if I can stop the drift, which as you said Ken seems to be one way only :( Regards Ross

Hi everyone, I was just sat here thinking about my last octo flight & was wondering if my slight drift could be caused by the ACC calibration being off???? I hope someone can answer this one for me ;) When you do the acc calibration do you:- A)Have your MR aircraft completely level? B)Have...

Just found this thread Bart & now I'm worried..you mentioned crashes with 0.86!!!!!! Ross

Great points plingboot, especially:- "Bringing certification into the community rather than it being with an unrelated third party should allow it to remain relevant and up-to-date by evolving as MR's develop." Ross
