    FAA gives DJI Phantom Green light for commercial flight

    Sounds good until you read the entire thing. Basically he has an exemption that if he meets all of the requirements he can fly over uninhabited land. They specifically do not allow him to fly over congested or densely populated areas (standard FAR altitude rules) which means forget about...

    Freefly Movi M5 Brushless Gimbal, Official Users' Thread

    Quinton the numbers are the mapping to the radio channels. The + and - simply allow you to reverse control direction quickly using the MoVI GUI rather than doing it on the radio. MoVI owners that are coming from the film world don't typically have any experience with RC radios so Freefly kept...

    Greatly Improved Tarot T-2D 2-Axis Gimbal User's Manual Attached

    John Thanks. Nice job. Question for you. I run single operator and want to control tilt. It appears that the tilt 'channel' is hard coded. In other words if I want to put it on channel 6 (this is using a Futaba) that is not configurable in the software. Hope I am missing something but big...

    360 aerial panorama over Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport

    One of the techniques used is that a final shot is taken of the sky while on the ground to fill in what the camera can't see as it points vertically. At least with the GoPro 360's I've seen. So probably inserted the copter as well.

    FAA is blocking commercial use of quads?

    Kloner there is a current case with a pending $10,000 fine in front of the NTSB Administrative Law Judge for Raphael Pirker. A company in California also faced a $10,000 fine for operating at Alcatraz. Not an MR, it was an SR, so there are folks that have gone past the cease and desist...

    XAircraft SuperX

    Cedar it's in the manual on page 18 The gain value from the RS is saved after landing. Thus if you disconnect the Gain input, SuperX will continue to use the last RC Gain to control the copter.

    Sony NEX7 and/or A77.... Anyone using them?

    Bart I was using the NEX7 on my Cinestar. Results for stills or videos was fine but limited to 30fps. Had both the small zoom that comes with the kit and the 16mm pancake. The 16mm was a little soft in the corners. Overall worked fine and with the StratoSnapper IR control using a three way...

    XAircraft Uneven Power output

    Leaving the props on is a safety issue. What I have started doing is unplugging the 'battery' feed to the IO and plugging in a 4-AA cell pack so all I have is power to the IO. Seems to work ok but introduces the issue of repeated plugging and unplugging to the IO. Not a good solution. Yes...
