Hey Bart, Just looking for a bit more detail here. How come you don't like top/bottom motor speed differential strategy? Thanks, Ben

Flew in a bit of wind with the XM6 and the carbon props - flew pretty well. Once I got the gain set right, the bumps were very minimal. I'm wondering if the light weight of these props allows them to react faster.

Happy with how it turned out?

If I'm going from light to dark, I would try to split the difference without overexposing. Hacking the GH2 will get you better detail and a little more room in post to color-correct. If the exposure difference is extreme, then you may have to use auto iris, or use a camera with more dynamic range.

We always film in manual mode. But you should do what works best for you.

New builds - fun stuff! Now I've got the itch...

That is sharp. Lots of nice details there.

Excuse my ignorance, but how do you land one of those without damaging the camera? Thanks! -Ben

Here's a few clips of them in action:

That's good to hear that Hoverfly took it in stride.

Voted for ya!

Patrick, so sorry to hear about this. You may want to contact Red and post on Reduser.net so people will keep an eye out for the serial number. Red may be able to assist you. I hope they catch guy quick.

That's horrible. So bummed to read this! Glad there aren't any major physical injuries. Hang in there, Dave. We're thinking of ya.

I'm not sure. You'd have to contact DW about that one.

Boris, It looks like you got it working pretty darn well! I don't have any experience with the DJI gear, but I do know that if you're looking for an alternative platform to fly it from, Droidworx has an adapter plate for the Zenmuse, and they've released their new retracts too.

You guys definitely do some of the coolest builds. Glad to have you here.

Definitely!

This plane is kind of a glider with a ducted fan over the wings. Definitely not the best to learn on, but I'm having a blast with it. I'm charging three batteries right now. I got into multi-rotors carefully. I kinda took the opposite approach here. Some time on a sim would've been a...
