    Lumix GH4

    I have it setup for 1080p or auto. It works perfectly in 30Hz modes like 1080p60 and 4k, but when I put it in 24Hz mode for Cinema 4K the output stops working.

    Lumix GH4

    I'm using the white box HDMI2AV converter sold on Amazon, it is powered through HDMI from the GH4. I have live video working in all recording modes except 4K Cinema. Did you have to do anything special in 4KC to get video out working?

    A question for the pros from a wannabe pro

    The "manual" mode on the Hoverfly controller is a true manual mode, in other words there is no automatic leveling or any other flying aid. The Hoverfly does have an automatic leveling feature called horizontal mode, and that does work like DJI "atti" mode, but that is a separate mode than the...

    Blackmagic Pocket cinema camera in the air

    I was hoping this would be the camera to replace the GH3 but not having 60p is a deal breaker for us. It makes such a huge difference when shooting any action to have the ability to slow in post. Now even the $400 go-pro has 1440p48, 1080p60 and 720p120. I think 1080p60 at 50Mbps should be a...

    Hoverfly What Makes Good Aerial Video

    I couldn't cut together a good video to save myself, but I do have a grasp on how to obtain the aerial footage. I don't have much to add to this thread other than to say if you are trying to be an aerial operator, then don't worry too much about editing, spend your efforts on improving your...

    How does prop / RPM / pitch relate to Aerial Video ?

    Pick your cell count and props based more in regards to efficiency than vibration. They will all vibrate about the same so you need to account for that. Typically higher cell counts drawing lower amps makes things more efficient and reliable. Also to account for gust tollerance and stability...

    Done with PH - moving to Cinestar/Radian - Any advice?

    I think it would be unwise to invest in servo driven gimbal system right now. Brushless gimbals for big cameras are closer than you may think. This brushless technology has already evolved faster than most people could imagine. The CS/radian combo will no doubt work better than your current...

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    I don't think the sum option is working right now. I just got the smallest RX possible and stuck it with double side tape directly to the picloc, that way I can use very short cables and don't worry about the cables adding drag to the gimbal movement.

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    About the external magnetometer, on February 21st George wrote me an email and basically said the firmware still had a minor bug with the magnetometer and for now to tuck it away until he comes out with new firmware. I assume since the last firmware was released on January 28th that his advice...

    Super light HDMI Converter

    Thanks, I just assumed the black and white ones were the same since other than color they are identical.

    Super light HDMI Converter

    Has anyone successfully used the HDMI converter in the first post of this thread with the GH3? Was there anything special you had to do to get it working?

    DJI Big SALE everywhere....??? Give-away party for a reason.....

    Of course, and what I'm saying is the airflow from the prop wash is very turbulent and also changes directions relative to the arms, and therefor the benefits of fixed aerodynamic shaped arms would likely be minimal at best. To see any real benefit you would likely need to figure out the average...

    DJI Big SALE everywhere....??? Give-away party for a reason.....

    An aerodynamic arm would be cool, and there are already several sources for the tubes in carbon and aluminum, but the increase in efficiency would not likely be worth the increase in complexity and cost when factoring in all of the clamps and associated hardware that would also need to be...

    Silicone Mini HDMI to Mini HDMI Cable

    Got Heli RC has them for $16 plus $3 shipping, I got mine in a couple of days. Yes the Hyperthin goes to regular HDMI so you have to use an additional hdmi->mini converter to use your Freefly converter, or buy the cheap Amazon mini converter that has regular HDMI input.

    GH3, HDMI out working, but not via a converter

    Tombrown1, can you clarify exactly what you mean? Did you power the converter using a Lipo with BEC dropped down to 5v into the USB power port on the board?

    GH3, HDMI out working, but not via a converter

    I ordered this one from Amazon and it does NOT work with the GH3: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0080KN18K/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I have a much larger HDMI converter working so I can isolate this new converter as the problem. Also when powered either by the usb power or by...

    Picloc 3x setting experience etc.

    Actually I think George has great support when you can get in touch with him, but he is just overwhelmed with his day job and the popularity of the picloc. He has Skyped with me and helped me through email many times to figure out my first picloc was not working, then he sent me a new version...
