    Yes that is exactly what I did, You only need the IMU and the same cable. It must face the front in correct orientation or it wont work. I flew the border and did the mirror test this way. I mounted it on a temporary battery tray. I tried to buy 20 more units from DJI to make a commercial mount...

    Hi Kloner I don't usually use anything on the front of the lens as the digital workflow software these days can deal with most image adjustments, depending on what it will be used for. You want something that supports non destructive editing so you can keep your original raw files and view as...

    Swisser The reason that we use publishing tools a lot is that other publishers like to use PDF files to communicate.WYSIWYGShot with canon 85/1.2 and a large quad model known as the *****. As you're a Londoner here is an image from the UK which was one of my best sellers for the last 20 years...

    S800 alternative props

    The first time I tried to remove a DJI Carbon prop I found that the screws had been over tightened at the factory rounding out the allen key drive, so they would not come off without some careful work with a small Dremmel wheel to cut a screwdriver slot. Imagine that problem at the flying site.

    Boris, they did that to lock you into buying their props. Which was a crazy idea when they had no stock. They are just far too labour intensive If they had designed a good quality carbon reinforced injection molding then they could have had a bite out of the non DJI cherry's

    If you put the two side by side then there are a few similarities but definitely a completely different motor from anything on the TM web site. 4008's are not 6s. Even the knock-off RCTimer ones are not exactly the same. Made at the same factory and designed by the same bloke I would say. A lot...

    With all of the Flip of Death analysis going on at the moment it does seem to point towards ESC problems as the main cause.

    Hello DYS from Huizhou,China

    The 50Amp look identical to the Suppo Motor ones, I have tried them and they are good for MR's including high pole count motors. I expect they are all made in the same factory, question is which one.

    Chris I think it is wrong to assume that retracts are an essential. Save your money. No full size pro operations use more than 60 deg of pan angle during a live shoot tracking fast moving objects. Race boats and cars for example. The locked-in look from a pro shooter is usually achieved with...

    Interesting that they hung the FS100 gimbal on a heli . Not a very good one though. I thought the way they support the camera overhang was nice. An overhead bellcrank and a couple of pull rods. Nice idea. removes loads from the gimbal bearings.

    The next consideration is that of learning how to work with CMYK not RGB and getting your head around color profiles etc. Strange things can happen if you are not coordiated with the print house (Who is probably in China and doesn't speak your language very well). The Pro shooter is a big step...

    From a publishing aspect one has to look a little further than your average camera club rules of composition. It's about utilization of the page area as most editors will crop out most of what is know as white space. The juxtaposition of titles and other text overlay has to be considered at the...

    It depends on what your aim is, If you want to cut the mustard in the big time then the subject matter is crucial. I think No.1 would be more saleable as a portrait, just rotate it L 90 degrees. No.2 could be cropped to loose most of the left hand side and No 3 is not what I would call a...

    Yes it flies great with 14x4.7 APC's and the Zen, (nice and Quiet) but I have some others to try yet. I'll try and narrow it down for you guys as to which is best. The first thing I noticed was how much easier it is to transport the fully assembled model. The carbon props' are a nightmare, if...

    Thank god we saved the machine file. Ten more sets now in stock for those who missed the boat. If you break even one carbon prop. it will be cheaper to convert and less vibration. I am not mad about that dihedral angle so I think we should look at that next. When I ran the tests 4 years ago I...
