I'll put one up officially this week if time allows.

Ken It sounds like you have got your head around the wookong heavy lift setting. care to share your findings. D.

Bart you may have to take that risk, crash may have been right, it is awfully quiet around here. what happened to all that fun we were going to have.

I would try to add some mass to the camera base plate in the first instance. You can get quite good results with the camera mounted solidly to the frame and that should get rid of those artifacts. You will of course not be able to correct the models pitch and roll accept though post...

Emo Don't worry too much about this as it will all become very easy once you gain a little experience. These things don't vary too much from one make to another. In a short while you will have it all sorted. Can I make one suggestion, get yourself a Simulator from aerosimrc.com. A couple of...

DSLR cameras such as Canon produce a high resolution image. say around 21 mega pixels, there is no electronic means to transfer that amount of data at even 25 fps so what they do is skip some of the lines alternatively to bring it down to around 2 mp. In a slow moving sequence that is not seen...

Jellow effect is caused by the scanning system known as line skipping. by increasing the frame rate you effectively have less skipped lines. For shooting utube and Vimeo etc. I would go for Wide standard definition at 120 fps. I don't normally spend so much time on the internet but my hard...

In the UK the Civil Aviation Authority aka the Campaign Against Aviation deemed that if you were commissioned to shot a job it was commercial but if you shot the same site speculatively and later sold the picture it was not. That was the basis in which many amateurs operated without the need to...

Paktazh You need to convert your battery to a Deans connector.

Well done, join the club of happy owners.

OK you can use this formula to get an accurate estimation. 54 X bat. Cap. / total amps draw. example:- lets say each motor needs to lift 500 grams, so you have an AUW of 2000grams. On the MK site you can see some lift curves for a few of their motors. Lets assume your motor will draw 4.5...

No she fly's a 320 scairbus. But she would be open to suggestions!

I have found that the ESC is a reliable way to let you know that you are about to go down. Hi Model has three settings. I see a little instability for a few seconds and then is will start to descend. So I set my timer 1 min short of that time. I have calibrated all of the batteries as they are...

Whats the AUW with 5D

Jeff What endurance are you getting with the cinestar?

I have another version in the pipe, but lets wait and see what the others do!!!! Still plenty of time guys, so what are you all waiting for.

Yeah I like the 120 fps. With software like After Effects you can do some great stuff. Anti jellow effect and warp stabiliser for example. until now I wouldn't have considered one.

Don't panic you have brake enabled on the ESC.

I did find that the camera gimbal was a little slow to react to any sudden change of attitude. I have it dialed in to give a perfect leveling which I set-up with a spirit level. I changed to 7.4 volt magnetic encoder servos (running at 7.4v.) and saw a big improvement in response time. Obviously...
