CAA have not been consistent in there use of definitions: SUA and SUSA, and this leads to confusion when reading: 6.1.2 The standard CAA permission for SUA in the 7 kg or less category allows flight within congested areas to within 50 metres of persons, structures etc. (or within 30 metres if...

Where have you got this information Dave, I'm sure all the distances are the same unless there has been a recent change

Hey Dave, I am planning a build for a 3 axis gimbal at the moment, what I have determined is that I will not use retracts as the add a fair bit of weight but use the style that has the landing gear fixed but integral to the gimbal,, basically a cinestar style gimbal, I'm looking with interest at...

Its just that over 7kg involves more interaction with ATC units in class A,B,C & D airspace.

Did you balance your props yourself or try a different type, the fight time could have been due to low voltage protection setting on the Naza. I'm guessing you bought it RTF but fine tuning these things takes a good while.

No Steve, Lipos are not classed as fuel for purposes of definition, since they weigh the same charged as they do discharged. Steve

Thanks Bart

Always says out of stock when I look, are they actually in production yet?

Where on earth do I get one of these GPS boards?

Jan, do you know there shortly be a Brushless Gimbal Driver available for the radian, I have a feeling they will make very good BGC's, although the firmware upgrade from 1 axis to 3axis is £300, I am wondering if buying 2 drivers would be more cost effective option for a 2x gimbal, one for roll...

Had my hopes up there, thought we might have some relaxation in the minima for 'congested area' which, lets face, it covers just about any and all urban areas. its such a broad, catch all definition, so open to interpretation, and one all too easy to fall foul of.

The YT stab is not very good, you could get far better results with some descent stab software, I use CS6 Pr warp stabilizer a good deal when I use a servo gimbal. when its just for web use the results are not far off untouched brushless gimbal stuff. If its windy when filming even with a 2x...

Thats just life in a developed society, facts of life.

Dont be too harsh biscuit may not be located in the USA, wait till legislation and certification is in place in the US and its cost you thousands of dollars, time and effort. then you might think different about RTF Phantoms cutting your throat.

UK at the moment its strange where the Professional operators are very heavily regulated with certification and annual renewals, assessment etc but there is zero regulation on the hobby side....well thats not strictly true as the regs do exist in form of BMFA and CAA documents and they are...

The 1212 was the FC from the bad old days of XA, Fraught with problems but I gather some have had great success with it, I gave up on my 1212s when XA USA leaked that it was a dodgy batch. they seem to have really got their act together now though with the Super X. would be great to see some...

I'm Part way through an X650 resurrection myself, going with a Naza V2. I might be wrong but I didn't think the 1212 series was supported anymore. thought about a Super X?

I was quite taken by the idea for a no fuss, no mess clip on stills gimbal with a 2s lipo fitted. but the price put me off a little. still it would be good to see how it performs (ie video output) compared to regular servos running off a naza for example.

Dont know about the Zen but I use the polarpro naked ND on an Aeroxcraft brushless with no issues at all. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/POLARPRO-SNAP-ON-NAKED-NATURAL-DENSITY-ND-GLASS-FILTER-FOR-HERO3-GOPRO-GO-PRO-/251308230280?pt=AU_Cameras_Photographic_Accessories&hash=item3a83234688
