    Zenmuse GH4 Owners thread

    Does the GH4 gimbal allow still photos to be taken when using both the GH4 and GH3?

    Ronin m. What do you guys think for aerial?

    I know the first Ronin didn't. I believe all of the Zenmuse line does though.

    Looks like a pretty nice rig, I'll be watching it closely...

    Ronin m. What do you guys think for aerial?

    Yup, Ronin roll drift is awful when it's airborne. Coupled with the heavy weight... yeah, ours is grounded. Does the M have GPS? I haven't seen.

    New Release: Connex HD Video Downlink 3000FT $1599.

    At less than 1/4 the price (ETA: And less than half the weight!!) of the Teradek we're currently using?? Heck yeah I want to try one of these! Looks like low-latency HD transmission prices are finally falling :) The Lightbridge is 2.4ghz and pretty laggy from what I've seen, and I refuse to be...

    Foxtech Pivot V2 retracts... anyone?

    Pumpkinguy, I agree on the tripod, but I'm flying two X8's. I could make it work though, it would just bug my OCD :D SleepyC, thanks a lot. I just ordered the gear from Helipal, I'm looking forward to trying them out!

    Foxtech Pivot V2 retracts... anyone?

    Great. It kind of looks like they'll be a drop-in fit but I won't know until I have them in hand. I'm definitely leaning this way...

    Foxtech Pivot V2 retracts... anyone?

    Thanks guys, awesome info. SleepyC, how's the reliability on these? Any issues at all? As I said in the OP, the Foxtech gear seems pretty awful. Without a spring assist they'll barely even pick up the gear legs, and during test flying yesterday I had one just give up and refuse to raise. Do they...

    Foxtech Pivot V2 retracts... anyone?

    I'd really appreciate some pics if you get around to taking some! I would need to mount them to 25mm booms. Where did you order them?

    Foxtech Pivot V2 retracts... anyone?

    I ran across these on RCTimer: http://rctimer.com/product-917.html On sale for $320. They're made for S800/S1100, but I think I can retrofit them to the Cinestar, but I'd have to get more parts. Does anyone have experience with these?

    Simplest setup for STILL photography?

    *DELETED* There was a thread literally 5-6 posts down and I somehow missed it before posting. DERP. Sorry.

    P2V+ transmitter issue...

    Got it figured out. Somehow it was in Phantom mode instead of Naza-M even though the only time I ever messed with that was right after I got, and it was working fine prior to this. I'm not surprised since I had a 450 stop responding to failsafe a while back, checked the Assistant and it was...

    P2V+ transmitter issue...

    I just had a weird issue pop up. I hadn't flown my Phantom in a while, and a couple of weeks ago I took it to the field to make sure everything was working right. For some reason, now, the S1 switch isn't working; the aircraft is stuck in GPS mode. The weird thing is that flipping the switch...

    A2 2.4 + Skyjib = Wobble

    On my latest test the gains were from 128% to 159%... I've gone beyond that with the same results, but I don't remember the exact numbers (they were pretty high and low though... at high settings it's a little scary how hard it rocks). The motors are KDE 5215XF 435kv with 18" T-Props, and...

    A2 2.4 + Skyjib = Wobble

    Oops, title should read 2.4, not 1.4. I was thinking about software, not firmware, sorry.
