You know how they say "fight fire with fire?" I wonder what would happen if you fought jello with jello. Maybe with the right consistency of jello you could make a bowl and throw your camera on it. Now that's high tech!

Did you hear someone landed on the moon?

It is different when your life is in the seat. Every time we go up I look at those tiny control rods attaching the swash to the blades and cant help but to think what would happen if they broke. Or a camera flying out at 100 knots hitting the tail rotor. You see birds and you fly the other...

If my heli flew like a butterfly, I'd never get paid! :)

Can I have your skyjib if anything happens? :) Have fun. I've never had more fun than flying the r44.

These are some really valid points. But can we, ourselves, think of a system that satisfies all parties? I can't. The issues at hand: 1.Real aircraft are scared of collision with UAV's. 2.People are worried about being spied on 3.UAV's being used by terrorists. 4.Public safety. Currently...

I did worse than that on my first fold-n-fly. I had the excess gps wiring wrapped in electrical tape and it came undone and sprung right into a prop. Sliced the wires right in half! but it was a good thing as it forced me to re solder them at a much shorter length.

You mean the FAA won't approve us by simply having a stamp on our helis saying I passed the Kloner High Speed test? :)

If they say 2015, it will be 2016 at best before anything remotely solid comes out of Washington. In the meantime, this will most likely give the millions of phantom owners a chance to negatively or positively affect their legal structure. I am still not happy about the idea that a...

http://www.eoshd.com/content/12070/panasonic-gh4-professional-setting-faq If I understand question 1 correctly it is saying the hdmi outputs 1080 when recording internally. But it also says you can output 4k 422 8/10 bit if it's going to an external recorder. Does that imply you don't need the...

I'm not entirely sure the gh4 requires the bottom unit to acquire the 4:2:2 10 bit signal. Pretty sure the sdi puts out the same signal as the hdmi. But not confirmed. Personally I like the higher frame rate options in the gh4, smaller size makes for an excellent b cam. I think the compression...

Very well done. Looks like tons of fun putting that together.

I know you know your stuff but worth bringing up a few years back someone had a bad pot in their dx8. Unlikely the case.

You should print some tramp stamps for the disco. :)

there are only a few things that would make that happen. AFAIK it wont even arm if your esc's were not calibrated. Normally it just beeps letting you know there is an error. You either have some funky settings in your radio. Your lipos are extremely faulty. The fact it arms and spins up but...

I have a large metal warehouse and have flown countless hours with no issues. HOWEVER, I do not use GPS. When I flew my DJI stuff it did scare the hell out of me since I dont trust them. But nothing ever happened. But with my Hoverfly gear there was never any issues. Also worth noting that...

So I'm sure a lot of us got the ore order notification email this morning. It is indeed $1699 for body and $2000 for the base module. But how do you pre order? I didn't see the option on bh.

Oh she's holding a helicopter. I didn't see it. My eyes were stuck elsewhere. :)

As every multirotor configuration that I know of has an even amount of props, just buy what you need plus a few extras and swap them if they are backward. Is this really that big of a deal?
