    Mikrokopter Detailed MK FC 2.5 Setup Needed

    I've been buzzing around for over a year now with almost factory FC/GPS settings and thought it was how it was......Well, that was until I started flying an Inspire 1 around and it simply eats the MK FC for stability and position holding. I'm sure with the right settings that it can be fixed but...

    CASA (Australian) UAV controller / operator certificate

    Already we are finding there are licensed operators undercutting to win jobs for way below what the work should be paying. I guess they are under pressure to get some cash flow but it isn't doing anything positive for the industry and for the long term. Responsible operators who have a business...

    CASA (Australian) UAV controller / operator certificate

    Dazzab, there is a lot of what you describe going on everywhere at the moment. I spent 3 years getting our systems up and running to a standard I was happy with and by the time we had our UOC there were another 4 licensed operators in the same area. Now what's happening is some of the other...

    Will CAMremote fit the GH4 when mounted to Zenmuse Z-15?

    We have been using a CAMRemote on our GH4 for a while and it works fine. All it'll do is focus and shoot or record but that's all I need it to do. As for using in on the Zenmuse someone else will have to chime in with that info. Regards, Lance

    Lumix GH4

    I've connected up 5.0v external power to the converter board now and it seems to be a lot more reliable than when it was powered from the camera. I have not used it enough to say if has fixed the problem where the board would not convert every time when the camera was set to 50p but it seems to...

    Lumix GH4

    Kloner, I am running these converters and don't have them externally powered, the converter is supplied from the GH4 HDMI. It does drag the camera battery down a little quicker than without it but it is a whole lot more simple.

    Multicopter motor maintenance?

    I can understand advising users not to mess with things they do not properly understand nor are properly equipped to properly service but 99% of the bearings used in these motors are not sealed.......They are Shielded and there is a big difference. Sealed bearings have a contact lip seal which...

    Aeronavics / Droidworx SJ8 V2 build - problem with gear rail

    Aeronavics released a set of new dampers made by Allsteady which stop the side to side and wobbling gimbal movement. I've been running them for a couple of weeks and are a huge improvement over the original ones which were flawed by design. There are 2 different hardness.....Hard and very hard...

    Video Downlink

    I've been trying various 5.8G video Tx/Rx systems trying to get a reliable video link to a monitor and I just can't seem to get it right. I just got a 32ch Tx which we have been testing and found 2 channels that we can get a reasonable picture but there is still some interference. We got the...
