    DJI F550 will not stably hover

    I definitely have it in GPS mode, and have done and redone the calibration several times. It goes blue, then green, then white for 3 seconds. So I assume all is calibrated. Right?

    F550 Camera set-up: HELP!

    F550 Camera set-up: HELP!

    Sorry, complete n00b here, what is eCalc? I'm assuming it's some kind of software to calculate weight/flight time? I think I can settle for an NEX5 which is 465g lens and battery included... so that saves 300g. I just need to find a good reliable gimbal that's super light... I only really need...

    F550 Camera set-up: HELP!

    Thank you very much guys!! That's really helpful! OK, I don't have the time really to do a full full upgrade to a whole new platform... so what would be reasonable?

    WKM or Naza with GPS

    Thanks FlyGirl! ...though he did says he lost one of his quads! I hope I won't lose my F550... lol. no intention on that!! But thanks, the video is awesome. I guess that answers my question about taking off a metal deck, it doesn't affect the GPS I guess then... cool!

    Anyone heard of DYS?

    I've run across this gimbal system on the internet here in China, and was wondering if anyone has ever used this or had any experience with it... http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z0k.1000775.1.88.ismpul&id=19749570162

I'm a photographer based out of Shanghai and I have more and more clients asking me for these types of aerial shots for their product/factory/whatever (I'm a total newbie if you haven't figured that out already). So I got myself...
