    How do you power your Zenmuse?

    Huh? Servo and X1/X2? Aren't X1 and X2 something on the NAZA? You're not plugging the receiver into the naza for tilt control, just a spare channel (you mentioned channel 5) straight into the tilt slot on the Zenmuse GCU. Then assign a switch to channel 5 (or a knob would be better), adjust...

    Two 5,000 6S or one 10,000?

    I'm also a fan of dual lipos. A little more redundancy at the expense of a little bit more weight.

    How do you power your Zenmuse?

    It should be as easy as running a spare receiver channel straight to the GCU tilt port. No need to even run the assistant program for that.

    Should be now. I've got mine.

    How do you power your Zenmuse?

    No idea then. I thought it was all done via the USB port. What does the manual say?

    How do you power your Zenmuse?

    There's always one of those twisty things or a rubber band. Even a paper clip would do. Think Macgyver!

    How do you power your Zenmuse?

    It should be there. Check the packaging again.

    Huggins X1

    Aren't they jolly expensive? I know ResourceUAS use them here in the UK for SAR type stuff. Maybe drop them an email.

    Dual Futaba receiver. Better Range?

    Lord knows! Just place your receiver antenna straight down so you get a good 360 degrees reception and you're away. It doesn't matter which way the receiver is facing, just the antennas. if they are sticking straight out of the back then this is your problem.

    Totally agree! Lots of overhead is a great thing. :nevreness:

    How do you power your Zenmuse?

    You can leave the zen plugged in for hours and it will hardly drain your lipos. Stop worrying and have fun! :nevreness:

    How do you power your Zenmuse?

    Yes, it is.

    Dual Futaba receiver. Better Range?

    What do you mean by dual receivers? Satellites? Or literally two separate receivers (which can't be done!)?

    Don't talk to me about the Panasonic lens! No markings and infinity ain't infinity!

    The ALL New DJI S900 Hexacopter!

    I bought it with the Zen GH4 (although the Zen hasn't arrived yet). I want to use my current lipos which are all GensAce 5000mah ones. One lipo should keep me up for at least a minute! I'll start a new thread with weights and stuff. Give me some time though as I really take my time with a build.

    The ALL New DJI S900 Hexacopter!

    Thanks chaps. I know they'll like either the GH4 or BMPCC better than my 'wonderful' GH2 interlaced footage. Filming is my favourite thing to do so I am inclined with the BMPCC as no one really uses 4K yet and I like the BMPCC footage I've seen, a lot!

    The ALL New DJI S900 Hexacopter!

    Yes, it is cheap! I'm just weighing my options as will broadcasters like it? Some just like to post the footage without doing anything to it, which I hate! Some are very good at grading it and making it look splendid.

    Sure, I think I might start a new post. Oh, and thanks to Martin at Build Your Own Drone. Very passionate fella.

    If you want that option just call them. Websites are not always accurate. What do you mean by higher shooting speed? GH4 records at 25fps just like everything else. For work you're not going to be recording at 50fps anyway unless you are doing some kind of action.
