Something a bit different... I'm sure there will be much discussion about safety...

Overall negative light but you'd expect that

There are a number of NOTAMS and flight restrictions around greater Brisbane QLD over the G20 these are from SFC up. If you are in the Greater Brisbane area please consider these if you intended on flying even in your local park. My suggestions is dont bother you don't need the hassle and don't...

I was on my last flight of the day when I performed the auto land function via ipad and DJI 2.4G datalink. The MR landed ok but failed to power off the motors. I switched into Atti mode to take over control and performed the ESC function to power it off. Instead it flipped over and continued to...

Looks like we are not immune to over regulation either... but we are also not short of a few idiots who ruin it for the rest of us... http://www.governmentnews.com.au/2014/07/inquiry-unmanned-aircraft-calls-new-laws/ Just came across this as well...

imagine strapping one of these to a Multi Rotor or any UAV. This will change the way we look at filming and capturing the world from the air. http://www.360fly.com/

So if this concept ever takes off pun intended we will have reached a point of craziness! http://mashable.com/2014/02/08/renault-kwid-drone/

This is the first time in Australia that a multirotor was used by police in the field to survey a house during a siege. I see they used DJI Naza flight controller and a scarab airframe. They also reported civilians are only allowed to use these in their own back yard otherwise they will be...

I have it on good authority that Colin Guinn has left DJI....or got the boot so to speak

OK I take zero credit for this footage as much as I would like to be able to have been there to film it. It saddens me the devastation these fires have caused and my thoughts and prayers are with the communities and those fighting these fires.

Came across this great tool which could be of assistance in knowing if you are flying around restricted or controlled airspace. It is a Google Earth overlay of all the various airspace restriction and their relevant heights etc. http://www.lloydbailey.net/airspace.html

So here is Downunder Australia where we are already legislated to the inth degree... a group of Animal Liberation activists have got their hands on an expensive hexacopter and are using it to "spy" on unsuspecting farmers trying to prove their questionable farming methods. This is just giving...

So I went for a quick early morning sun rise flight down at my local field where I have been flying for the past couple of months. I was about 5min into my test flight (I have added some additional weight and was adjusting my gains) when a local council worker said you are not allowed to fly RC...

Has anyone had experience or thoughts with flying near or around Microwave, TV and radio transmission towers. My assumption would be that they would cause allot of interference with the electronics and cause potential loss of control or fry them. What would be the recommended min distance away...

Does anyone know if it is possible to run both the Zenmuse H3-2D and the iOSD at the same time through the Naza V2? Does not appear to be enough available ports or does the iOSD act as a hub? Happy Flying

Hi all I am wondering if anyone has had the inability to tick the intelligent Orientation Control within the Naza Assistant? I have assigned channel 6 to a 3 position switch and when i move the switch I can see the slider move against X2, when I go to the screen with IOC it does not allow me to...

Hi All I am in the processes of building my first Multi rotor and I am wondering if anyone has or know reasons not to use terminal blocks on the frame to connect the ESC controllers into. My thoughts are rather than having to un-solder and re solder when replacements ESC are required I could...

I see a need for some regulation but yet this is another way for the government and companies to make more money from hobbyists and take it out of the reach for only those who have large disposable incomes...
