    Need a Gimbal for FLIR

    Yes, any brushless gimbal that is not "model specific" . The Gremsy H3 or H6, the Movi M5, the Ronin M, or any of the thousands of no name "DSLR" sized brushless gimbals that are available.

    Testers needed

    Looking at the site, the prices are exceptionally high. You could buy a P3 Pro for the price of three shots. Also the shots all look graded, which is not what 90% of people buying stock footage would like. Just my $.02

    Hexacrafter to release x8 frames.

    Well here is one thing I can say for Andrew, he's probably the only company owner that will probably call you up to see how you are doing, how the rig is and how it's working out for ya. Also, the only guy where if there is something that might not be perfect, a few weeks later you get an...

    Hexacrafter to release x8 frames.

    I did not notice much difference with different pitch props on top and bottom except the esc/motor temps. With the Hexacrafter X8, good stiff carbon props seem to be the best. Either Foxtech or T-motor props. This set up seems to provide the most consistent performance. The 3 blades on an X8...

    advice for a build around a blackmagic micro camera

    Yea.. sorry, but all the same top and ten the opposite but all the same bottom. Id those are all correct, did you calibrate the compass? IMU in the right direction? Motors all spinning properly?

    advice for a build around a blackmagic micro camera

    Also, watching your video, something is wrong. The Tarot uses the "all top props the same CW, all bottom props the same CCW" method of doing an X8. I think your props are put on wrong.

    advice for a build around a blackmagic micro camera

    @Brooklyn Fly Guy Hate to say it but that frame sucks. I have it and did a heavy lift quad with it. With a WKM that I have flown on several machines I could not get a good tune. I finally got it to fly "decently" and when I hit the landing gear, the wind hitting the rising gear caused an un...

    Red Raven.

    For the $6999 US price you get the "BODY". you need to purchase batteries, Red Bricks (memory) Batt cables, Monitor (to access controls and settings) and several other BS items... like I said US: $12000 - $14000 Here ya go...

    hoo boy....1.9 million civil penalty! that's a lot of photos!

    1 question... tho.. how can they go back to 2012 when the rules were nearly suggestions back then?

    Red Raven.

    That is an M10 under the Alta. And this price range makes "leasing or making payments" on the camera sensible. Around $300 a month for 4 years. Also, to actuallu be able to use the camera you are looking at around a $12 - 14,000 investment. But STILL, that is not bad... I saw this a few weeks...

    A2 strange behavior?

    Sounds tyo me like it went into RTH. Check switches and switch throw. I had the same issue, and found that my ATTI position had bumped a bit during programming and was actually triggering RTH. And if your GPS has not locked yet, it will just hover and float in the wind. I grabbed the gear and...

    GH3/4 Lenses

    Veydra seems to be the real deal if you are only sticking with M4/3. Good find.

    GH3/4 Lenses

    1) I use Canon C100 and C300's so the canon lenses make sense, but also yes, better quality glass and more of it in the EF mount. The speed booster/adaptor adds 1 stop of speed, so that 3.1F lens is now a 2.1F, so much better at low light and a better DOF. 3) That was "FaSlash" - Fake Slash...

    GH3/4 Lenses

    For ground work get a Speedbooster and use Canon EF mount lenses. I LOVE the Rokinon14mm T3.1 Cine ED AS IF UMC Lens for Canon EF Mount on the GH4 on my Movi. It's wide enough to capture awesome and yet doesn't distort. Sample: Cleveland is beautiful! Just a few seconds of our awesome...

    Current feeling on U7 and equivalent KDE?

    I'm using U7-490 and T-motor 80A, with 18" and then 16" props and I can't keep the shrink wrap on the ESC's. I just got some heat sinks to try and bring the ESC temp down. And I had 4 on an 18 lb quad which should be CAKE for the 490's and it was so hot I burned my hands.... :(
