Hi All I want to put together a Hex for carrying my Sony NEX & Gimbal, I'm currently looking at the Tarot 680 Ironman frame but could do with some advise on what motors/ESC's I'll need to use for some steady Aerial Filming. I'm currently flying a DJI 450 flamewheel carrying a GoPro but want...

Can anyone offer advise on this thread? perhaps I posted in the wrong place... http://www.multirotorforums.com/showthread.php?16779-DYS-Gimbal-BGC-2-0-controller Thanks

Has anyone used/tested this gimbal & controller? (DYS gimbal, BGC controller). failing that, if anyone has any good recommendations for a 3-axis gimbal that won't blow the bank, I'd be pleased to hear about it. Thanks

Do buoyant landing skids exist, or has anyone tried to make them? I've been thinking of improvising some from empty drinks bottles or cans for emergency water landings if I'm flying over or near water. It's for a 450 quad so not a lot of weight to support. Does anyone know of a buoyancy...

Can anyone give me a brief description of what the gain actually is & what it does? I hear a lot about getting the gain settings right, but have no idea what that really means, the naza assistant software gives me the impression it is to do with stabilizing. So here's my question, if I add...

So as a point of curiosity, is it possible to lift anything more than a GoPro with the DJI F450 frame? I've always assumed that a GoPro was the limit, however just seen a phantom on YouTube lift a DSLR - albeit pretty unstable & limited flight time. Has anyone done this already? Even if it...

Could be a silly question, but I've seen a few YouTube clips of MR's crash in water, how final is it if that happens? Game over? would you have to replace all electronics & motors? (sounds expensive) or are some parts well sealed & would survive a dunking? I'm particularly interested in DJI's...

Hi all, I'm a complete newcomer to all of this, I haven't flown anything RC for about 15 years, when I had a bullet glider. I'll probably have a hundred and one questions on everything multi rotor! I'm a keen amateur photographer & want to get into some aerial photography & film, and also...
