    We'll need to press for stronger legislation on plastic bags! I think some form of operator licensing, and bag registration is in order..

    Sony A6300 Camera Discussion

    Thanks Owen! It looks about on par with what I am used to with my AV out of the Canon. As you say good enough for composing the shot. It's a shame there aren't any systems in between these and the Lightbridge et al. Someone could clean up if the made a product in the $500 range that would do...

    Building an octo to carry a 5ds R. Point me in the right direction please

    Oh right that one. They mis-named that using "X8" when in fact it is a flat 8... It keeps confusing me. They should do a real X8 (4 booms with two motors on each).

    Building an octo to carry a 5ds R. Point me in the right direction please

    PS I've been flying a Canon 5Dll which makes for a heavy rig on the 810. So I was considering going to an x8 myself. But decided to switch to the Sony a6300 instead as it's 1/2 the weight and twice the resolution... 4K! ... And a darned sight cheaper as well. This allows me to stay with the hex...

    Aloha Lyle, I didn't know Tarot has an x8 do you have a link? I'm super happy with my Tarot 810 folding hex, so if it's similar quality it should be a good frame ... But shoot me a link and I'll take a look.

    I'll bet you are right on that one. Have you run your rig to test it yet? I'm wondering how the picture quality is? Yes, on the "similarities" between the Aerial P one, and the white box one. That is typical of them. :rolleyes:o_O I think I will buy one of the White Box ones with the...

    For the cheaper ebay/amazon Chinese "white box" ones we should get the ones with the bigger chipset for slightly better resolution on the input side. But they still only do 480i on the AV output side. Ebay link...

    . Thanks for the update Owen. Most appreciated. Is this the one you bought? https://aerialpixels.com/shop/audio-video-cables-accessories/hdmi-av-converters/hdmi-av-converter-version-2-supports-1080p/ In chat with them they say it's only 480i output on the video side. I have been searching...

    Anyone found any 16mm Lens Options other than the Sony pancake? I'll probably go that route, but open to options... There seems to be fairly limited choices.

    Don't Get Hurt!

    Along the same lines: approaching the copter while still armed with the transmitter slung around the neck.. Bend over activating the throttle... Now I manually disarm using the TX, test that it's disarmed by raising the throttle, then put the TX down, making sure it's still on & throttle is...
