    You say you want a Revolution? New Stills

    Shot these today. I got a ton of good video and stills, these are just a few of the stills. I flew all my batteries, 6 flights in all so I have a lot of media to go though. I found a revolutionary war battlefield 15 minutes from my house that I had no idea was there...and I'm a huge history...

    I thought about using a 3 way switch. Glad to hear it works from for you I might have to try it. Obviously you adjusted the 3 angles to your liking in the 3 positions?

    Congrats Droider! I also want to say congrats to Bart on this great site. I know things started slow and there was a reason you started it. However, it has grown into a great site in it's own right, with great contributors and I think it's a breath of fresh air. Thanks! BTW I'm back in 100%...

    Yeah I'm pretty good doing it, the only real time I get myself in trouble is when I start messing with the camera tilt. Then it's hard to judge how far down the camera is facing and what you're shooting. Other than that I can usually get good pics just by flying LOS.

    Yeah I know but there was no wind and it picked up a lot a few hours later. Also fairmount park and that area gets packed later in the day so I tried to get in early, I hear you though. Lighting, It's just another thing we got to take into consideration I guess. No FPV, I was just flying line of...

    These were shot today. The lighting was terrible, Way too bright. I was shooting east in the AM so I'm shooting right into the Sun and the city is pretty washed out. Anyway, thought I'd share a few. There are some better ones but I'm gonna leave them off the internet for now. Philadelphia Art...

    Sony NEX-5

    I really like the Nex-5 and I've seen some incredible pics taken by them. I wish I had one but I'm very happy with my Canon S90. They now have the S95, pretty sure the only difference is the S95 shoots HD video. They're basically Canon's high end point and shoots. I use the CHDK hack on it and...

    Learning FPV

    I know Multi's are harder to track across the sky then say a RC plane but if you have a sim practice on the planes. They will help you get your orientation down a lot easier. After a while at a distance you won't even have to know which way is front or back, you can tell by which direction it...

    Which FPV set up ?

    I use a 900mhz 500mw TX/RX from Range video with a patch antenna. I use a monitor instead of goggles. There is a video on another thead that shows some FPV flying we did a golf course. We were not going far distances but there was not a flicker in the signal. There are def. more serious systems...

    Next Gen Gone?

    Let me say again that I have no horse in this race. I think it's crap if he's ripping people off, I just did not have that experience. It wasn't always easy dealing with him because he wasn't all that reliable but things always got done eventually. These are taken after I unpacked everything and...

    Next Gen Gone?

    I'm sorry to hear all that Kevin but honestly I have had the exact opposite experience than you. My hexa is a thing of beauty. I've said it before and I ll say it again, it looks like a machine made it. The wires are all perfect length, inside the arms, not on outside. They're only visible...

    Next Gen Gone?

    I can't really speak to that personally as my experiences w/ him weren't that bad but that sucks it happened 2 you, sorry to hear it. I completely understand your frustration and would be livid if it were me. He was definitely not the most professional person and he did try to leave us in a...

    East Coast Fly-In?

    I really have no clue where. Is it legal to go to a park like that and launch 10-15 drones in the air? Is there anyone offiliated with a club that may host something like that? Then everyone would have to be AMA. I really don't know it's a big eastern seaboard.

    Near Earth Imaging Stills

    That all sounds great. I'd love to have a fly in as Bart has suggested. I'm available most weekends as well so let me know. I saw your tricopter on youtube that thing is sweet. Your pics look great too. I've been in such a struggle to tune the MKTR mount for video that I've been slacking big...

    Baltimore checking in

    Very cool Kilby! I was a big fan of Lightroom 3 but I only had the 30 day trial. I just got to bite the bullet and buy it. It can def. add a whole new dimension.

    Near Earth Imaging Stills

    Thanks man! I have only once been over the bridge to shoot. Most of my stuff has been from the Jersey side but I do plan on flying there a lot more this year. There is so much History, monuments, statues, awesome buildings, etc. in PhillyI love it. With that comes a lot of nerves because I'm...
