Hi Guys, I've been away for a while, busy with other things, but still very much into the multi rotor scene... I have been tasked to build a heavy lifter for a friend, and we are contemplating using a Skyjib airframe. The problem is that he has never seen one before and would really like to...

If you are down south in the UK and can tune in to BBC Radio Berkshire, have a listen at 11am on Monday. If you are really interested, you can get it online as well! I have a 45 minute (I think its that long) interview with Tony live. Only thing I'm worried about is the heli becoming a...

Hi Peeps, Please could someone let me know the motor - motor size of the CS 8. There's nothing posted on their website. Thanks! Gunter.

All, I have been tasked with a wee job, I'm not going to reveal details at this moment, but it's pretty exciting. If it all works out, it will cause a bit of a stir in the MR world! All I need to ask you learned chaps at the moment is whether or not you think this configuration will work. It's...

Hi All, I have a client interested in building the dogs danglies of a heli for hi end filming. (Flying a 3.6kg camera to start with, but capable of a bit more weight) I can recommend the Cinestar 8 with the Cinestar gimbal, or possibly the Droidworx EMC or Skyjib with a photohigher gimbal...

I have been looking around for insurance for the hexa and found these people http://www.uavs.co.uk/ £2m public liability and also £5000 cover for loss/theft/damage of the heli including photographic equipment cost me £477. You can pay the full amount or monthly. They are very helpful and...

I have been using a bog standard 25mw transmitter with standard antennas for my live video feed, but found the signal faded when the heli was more than 30m away from me. Yesterday I got 2 new cloverleaf antennas from firstpersonview (for transmitter and receiver) and promptly did a distance...

Has anyone tried the latest firmware? Just wondering if they have sorted the overheating problem?? Regards, Gunter via the Samsung

Has anyone tried this before? I have just got myself the 4GB card and it seems to work okay. I have managed to get it to download pics taken, straight to my smartphone, although it takes 30 seconds to do it. I was just wondering if anyone had tested the range yet? Will it work 30-50m away...

New on the market, I know it's probably way over priced, but Draganflyer do some good kit with everything integrated, so if money is no object...

We have been having a little discussion in "show us what you shot" as to what altitude is the best, best time of day to take pics, best angle etc. So I wanted to see if anyone was interested in helping with my next job. I will describe my brief here, show you the details and then you have to...

Just got this pic on my facebook!

After seeing the thread by Redridinghood about the new transmitter, I found this on the "Gizmo for you" website: http://www.gizmoforyou.net/site/en/blogs/2-channel-servo-override-hardware.html#readmore What I am thinking is that you can set up a second transmitter for the camera man, but...

If you are looking for a case for your transmitter, batteries, camera etc then get over to Maplin. They have a special on their high impact cases, which are waterproof and as strong as nails. £39 which is a steal! This is now my second one!! Regards, Gunter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A few times I have had problems triggering the camera with my gentled, and every time it happens the camera/heli is pointing straight into the bright sun. Is this just coincidence or could direct sun interfere with the infra red? Thanks. Regards, Gunter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have a potential job coming up where I need to run at least 15 batteries dry in a day. I only have 6 and don't want to invest in another 9 batteries costing probably £750. I was thinking of purchasing a leisure battery which I could use to run the battery charger. I can charge 3 at a time...

I have been adding loads of extra weight to the hexa and I have been thinking that the 11" props might not be that efficient any more. What I did tonight was to test flight times with 11x5" Graupners and 12x6" APC's. My setup is a hexa with one 4S 6000MAH Turnigy lipo. AU weight is 4.8KG...

I need to set up a video feed from my camera to the base station. I already have the transmitter on the heli, I just need to sort how to get from the camera to the transmitter. Can anyone recommend a website who deals with this? Thanks. Regards, Gunter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thursday Martin and I spent the whole day in the car driving to 2 building sites giving demos with the heli...weather was kind at I managed to get a half decent pano.. Friday spent all day with Hugh (the pano king!) taking aerial and ground photos of a 500 acre site for the Olympic games. We...
