    One of our best so far... Dewees Island highlight reel

    Hope you guys enjoy watching this one. I think it's one of our better highlight reels so far. Dewees Real Estate asked us to shoot some footage of their unique island that they could use in their promotional videos. This video contains a few of the highlights from our day on Dewees...

    Y6 versus Hexacopter....... Advantages one over the other? Chime in!!

    Dave, thanks for the feedback. Not "obnoxious" at all - you've got the background to confidently state what you know. I appreciate the info. So... what camera are you planning to lift with the SJLX4?

    Y6 versus Hexacopter....... Advantages one over the other? Chime in!!

    Dave, good to see you back in the air! Video looks good. What flight controller are you running on that Y6? How does a Y6 compare to an X8 in your opinion? Thanks for sharing your hard earned knowledge! You're the man! all the best, Ben

    Power distribution on a heavy lift rig

    I can't offer much feedback on power distribution, but I noticed that you said you'll use 11,000mah batteries. If you're planning to use Maxamps batteries you should look at their 10,900mah batteries with a higher C rating.

    Never had this happen before!

    We run our led strips off a 4S. Now you've got me thinking about dropping that voltage.

    Dang. Now my LEDs are making me nervous. Let us know when you figure this one out. Voltage issue maybe? Just throwing out a guess.

    Here's one that we shot when we first got going with Yonder Blue Films... We shot it with our Cinestar 8 with Hoverfly Pro and a homemade dolly. All filmed with a hacked GH2.

    Wakeboarding film we helped shoot...

    Thanks, Josh. We were using MaxAmps batteries on that shoot and have been ever since. The 11,000mah batteries have worked well for us. In the future we'll likely try some of the 10,900mah batteries with the higher C rating as those seem to be more appropriate to our applications.

    Wakeboarding film we helped shoot...

    Standard booms, so the max prop is a 14 which is fine for most of our stuff. I think we were using APC SF on this shoot. We mostly use Xoar beechwood props now (14x5). Glad you guys like the video - we appreciate it. It was a fun shoot - we hope to work with Remedy Films again.

    Wakeboarding film we helped shoot...

    We're proud to be a part of this fun wakeboarding film shown below. We shot a lot of the aerials for it. There are some aerials from a full size heli as well, not ours, but also very cool. This was produced by Remedy Films - great company to work with! Hope you guys enjoy it. At 17:20...

    Hoverfly New firmware for HoverflyPRO+GPS

    I've made some changes in our hardware so it is hard to say how much effect the new firmware has had. The Cinestar is flying good though so I'm happy.
