    DJI Inspire 1 Pro against GH4 - 4K videos

    No comparison. The GH4 is heads and shoulders above the X3 or X5. The X5 is a little better than the GH4 but there is still many many more advantages to the GH4. Bitrate is at least double. @Jumpy07 has done some comparison work.

    Lowest voltage per cell to protect batteries?

    On the iOSD hovering before landing 3.7v per cell. Recovers pretty quickly on landing.

    New(ish) Commercial Startup - Any Advice?

    Hiya, Angus's advice is very sound. It all starts with the customer. Who are they and what are they likely to want? The new Sony A7r is hard to beat as a survey camera at 34mp, or the Sony A6000 at 24mp (which we use). Don't limit yourself to a platform / gimbal that can only carry one...

    BNUCs, to renew or not to renew???

    Your PFAW is now essentially type approved so if you have sub7 (for example) you can add or remove platform to your ops manual as you see fit. Up date your ops manual accordingly but no need to send to the CAA until renewal time. You only need to flight test it through an NQE if they require...

    BNUCs, to renew or not to renew???

    There is no requirement to renew an NQE membership. If you want to keep the BNUC for business reasons hen you have to renew through them. I think you'll find the other NQE's are being very pragmatic and helpful. There is ICARUS and WhisperCAM now as well as full NQE's.

    Zenmuse Z15 dual operator control with spektrum kit.

    Hi guys, I currently run a single operator on our S900 and want to change to dual. Is it as simple as adding a second receiver and swapping the cables / mapping the new tx? I have a spare DX9 I can use. All I see online is Futuba and wondered if there were any issues with using Spectrum gear...

    Panasonic GH4 transmits on playback, but not live feed.

    There are many peculiarities with the GH4 live view I'm afraid. Just be methodical and make notes. I tried to use a blackpearl on the handlebars of my Ronin the other day and could only get it to show on the BP in one of the recording modes. Happy fiddling!

    Permission to fly within 10m of the public and to 600ft

    Brilliant stuff Angus, I can really appreciate how much hard work this has been for you and your team. Great stuff. @henrysj this is carried out by the operator not a qualified entity.

    Hurrrah! Sorry Ben lol! I was beginning to think you were superhuman when it came to DJI gimbals ;) Thanks for the intel Tim, this cold issue would make perfect sense with my setup. I am on my second gimbal with the same issues. If i test at home and carry out of he workshop to TO the feed...

    Dji s900... what wind speed is safe to fly?

    I tend not to fly above 15mph constant otherwise battery life and penetration ability drops dramatically.

    DJI Ronin - who has one? thoughts?!

    I have just got Ronin and I'm really very impressed at the build quality and ease of use. Just waiting on a few extra bits before we really use it hard with the GH4. I can't get the vertical tilt very well balanced with the GH4 so will be adding some weight to the hotshoe. It's pretty easy to...

    I've had mine swapped mate and same issues. I'm convinced it's the HDMI board in the gimbals. Apparently A2's seem better. Mine has been out in very low temps when it has been working with no issues.
