Hi Bob.....With the GoPro it's like with a lot of other products....it became a live-style product. Because of that, a lot of people are buying it just because of that...it's very present in the internet and got the "I have to have it" factor. I am not saying it is a useless product which just...

Strange enough, but the Pirateye gives me a sharper and brighter image than the Fatsharks.....I was talking to an optometrist last week (I got new Bi-focal glasses and and felt sea-sick) he explained something interesting to me: The eye is seeing something and passes that information to the...

Hi....my Pirate's are still great. As Maverick pointed out, a slightly tinted lens helps a lot in bright sunlight....Maverick's whole review in Post #13 is spot-on.....BUT: It is also important to consider what you want to do with them. With my TBS Disco I use the Fatshark Dominators (I tried...

Hello Great to have you here....... we are wet behind the ears as well....we just can hide it very well :tennis: Chris

There is actually a few complains about the TBS ESC's around the internet.... But I feel sorry for you anyway.... Chris

As much as I am tending to get away from DJI, at least this App with the BT-module looks sleek.....comes in very handy to tune the bird in the field without a "Schlepp-Top".... Chris

I also had the TBS ESC's, and the soldering of the bullet connectors to the board was just useless. About 6 came off just by slightly wiggling....I replaced them because I was not sure anymore about the quality of the whole ESC's... If you have a chance than move the ESC from the motor which...

Your arguments are spot-on......and from what I was reading the Trekker is in fact a "blown-up" Trex 700 heli......also the cameras getting smaller (Black Magic Pocket Camera just as an example) is a valid point......but the Trekker is still a sexy beast :tennis: If I just could base all my...

I agree, but there is just one little trouble: A lot of us have invested already some serious money in a S800 / Zenmuse combo, based on the promises of DJI (still visible at their web-site) and (maybe a bit over-exited) "fist hand experience" of early users....not even calculated the endless...

Does "TBS Disco Extreme" mean the normal Disco's with arm extensions and the APM 2814 motors...? http://aerialmediapros.com/store/product_info.php/tbs-discovery-f450-amp-extreme-conversion-kit-amp-2814-motors-p-317 Chris

One thing is not clear to me yet: Will the new IMU use the same firmware as the "old" one or will there be different firmwares....? If FW is different, I guess the development of the "old" firmware will come to a stop. Also even if they use the same FW for the moment, the development (I guess)...

That's what I will be looking at in the future: http://code.google.com/p/arducopter/ http://www.hoverflytech.com/controllers.html http://www.zerouav.net/productmore.aspx?id=72&productid=3 ....compare to WooKong http://www.zerouav.net/productmore.aspx?id=90&productid=1 ....compare toNaza...

What do we have here: GPS on the WooKong happend to be crap....now it's GPS V2....then it was the ESC's which "killed" a serious number of S800's....now it's the ESC V2....HDMI board on the Zenmuse was crap....now it's the HDMI board V2.....OSD Mark I was crap....now it's OSD Mark II....now it...

It's really itching in my fingers to get the Trex 800 Trecker....the gimbal and gimbal control is not my type of thing (servo gimbals seem to be a thing of the past), but the gimbal mount is great. Since they developed this Trex already towards the use with a camera, the balance of that bird is...

Are you aware that this is not a real copter....it's just a render.....read the comments on that vimeo page......another "game-changer" I am finished with Freefly...they can take somebody else for a ride ! Chris

The main trouble I see with that design is the 2x ESC's enclosed inside each arm.....no way the heat from the ESC's can go away. I like one of the comments on the diydrones.com site: " And no, $49,000.00 is without the RED. Although the movie industry always had more money than sense. "...

It's called "Black Armored Drone"....what a stupid name http://blackarmoreddrone.com/ Chris

This Alex Moskalenko is a true modern hero.....while Freefly & Co spend hundredthousends of $$ to be celebrated at the NAB, this guy is kicking their butt seriously..... Q: Why is your new product MöVi MR so expensive ? A: Ahmm...you know, there is a lot of R&D involved...

Have a look at this thread: http://www.multirotorforums.com/showthread.php?5992-S800-alternative-props.... it is mainly a discussion about replacing the stock Carbon props of the DJI S800 with different props, but it will give you some info about the different aspects of props. At the end of...
