    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...

    Mikrokopter Adjusting MK FC to Increase Stability in Wind

    I have been chasing my tail trying to get the FC to hold in gusting wind and decided to change the settings back and ask for help. I guess the thing which has been confusing me the most is the relationship between the onboard sensors and the GPS. Next question...... Alt Hold......When I...

    Lumix GH4

    Those of you who have some experience with the GH4, Is there an output signal from the HDMI port before taking a still pic which can be used to frame the shot. I'm guessing there would be a preview of the shot after it's been taken and a live view in video mode. Can someone confirm?? Thanks...

Back then there weren't too many options and I ended up having to shelve the project and wait for the technology to catch up. What I did get was a set of AXI 4120/20 motors which at the time were the...
