    Getting CAA Permission For Aerial Work - PFAW

    I went with ICARUS run by Aerial Motion Pictures, £1,500 total cost. As I live on a remote Scottish island they managed to set up my operational evaluation / flight test immediately after the theory so it was completed in less than three days! My PfAW arrived exactly four weeks after completing...

    GoPro 4 Hero Black with DJI H3-2D and H3-3D gimbals

    Hi, Did you ever find a solution for this? Just installed the H3-3D and Hero4 black on my 900 hex and I'm getting the same issue.

I've ordered a TBS 2.4GHz 11dbi yagi for the ground end which should hopefully help. It has a 47º beam width which is almost the same...

    Show what you filmed - Post Your Video Here

    I'm new to this forum so hi al! I've been flying rc for years and started filming from fixed wing aircraft and gliders a few years back. Most of my aerial footage is now shot with a Phantom 2, H3-3D and Hero 3 Black, and a S900 with Z15 is on its way soon. I plan to sit the RPQ-S exam and flight...
