Yes, UK tabloid journalism at its finest eh! I noticed that too. And the terrorist references... simply giving nutcases good ideas. But that aside, 23 near misses in 6 months in just one country is a real and large threat.

That's chilling

The story above brings up another safety concern: Always unplug your battery if you're going to move your copter... Fail-safe can kick in and cause it to try to return to launch. Had this one happen too. (While testing with no props on to see if I could make it happen.)

I've had mine spin up a few times unexpectedly without props on as well. I have one quite large Hex that would probably have killed me if it had props on. Here's another story I saw posted on another forum today: ---Quote (Originally by msgnfg)--- I spent six hours in the ER and received 25...

Although it is technically possible to bind more than one receiver your T8 can only broadcast a maximum of 8 channels. The Taranis radio system is what I use. 16 channels, some sliders on the bottom side to operate gimbals and only $200!

I just saw this post on another forum and thought it is a timely message as many of us prepare our machines for a new season. Every year we see way too many of these posts: This thread is located at: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1820773&goto=newpost Here is the message that...

I've always bought the FixHawk from RcTimer. They are identical to the 3DR version as near as I can tell. Never had any issues and the package is pretty complete..

This is the Aerial Photography and Video section so always feel free to "geek out" :)

I honestly don't know. What makes the Taranis a candidate is the fact that it has a bay on the back that you can install a second transmitter. The reason for this is so that you can use say a JR or Orange brand transmitter system, instead of the stock FrSky if you already have models with that...

I was a Futaba guy and resisted learning the Taranis that I had sitting around due to all the rumors of being difficult to use. But once I put my mind to it and took it one baby step at a time, and left my "Futaba thinking" behind I found the Taranis system to be quite intuitive and easy to use...

Very cool!

Surprised they're not going after 3DR... They are as "guilty" of using all the same features that Yuneec has "stolen".... Because they'd get their bum handed to them and they know it... I would love to see 3DR called as a professional witness.

They just posted this in the FAQ section of the RCCDroid website. It looks like we are indeed supported for live view over USB on their app. This is wonderful news. I will go ahead and buy a copy at some point today and report back: UPDATE: I installed the RCCDroid app and tested it out...

Interested in hearing about your app Helge if you are able to say anything at this time.

Helge, I used the "DSLR Controller" on android for my Canon 5D it has full live view over USB but not sure if it will work on the Sony. I will try when I get home from the studio later tonight.. That said I am wondering if this might be a no-go due to the camera not having composite video out...

I will update my post above regarding getting Composite Video (AV) out of the MultiPort for video down-link. A very exhaustive search of the web last night turned up nothing. I did find one reference that said composite video is not supported on the A6300 so I am fairly confident that is...

Hi Helge, For "Tethering" It looks like you can use the included micro USB cable (too short though lol) (or any USB cable with micro on one end and standard on the other) to connect to your computer. But you must download the remote control software to both your camera and your computer from...

The game is afoot. Such bad taste though my god. You already have a dominant position DJI

THE SONY "MULTIPORT" On another related topic we have the Sony "Multiport" which is the port right above the HDMI port on the A6300. Sony introduced the Multiport Protocol a little while back and it is standardized across the line of cameras that uses it. (so cables for say the a6000 will...

Thanks for coming over Helge it is great to see you here. Please stick around this is a great forum with level-headed people unlike some others ;) I agree with you 100% about Sony vs GH4 Helge. I find the video from the Gh4 is pretty ugly. A postage stamp sized sensor, with in-camera...
