Yes, black magic designs has the pocket cinema camera that was a very popular camera for drones because it would shoot in raw. They came out with the micro cinema camera for drones that would be capable of being controlled with an additional radio controller via pwm or sbus. The biggest thing...

Freefly alta looks like it would do it but its a pricey drone. You are at the upper limit of a DJI S1000. Foxtechfpv makes some heavy lift drones that would do it, Kracken and the D130. You should look for ways to strip weight from the scanner while remaining functional.

I'm not trying to put it down I was just pointing out that it doesn't have any collision avoidance and they showed one shot of it going through the trees. One thing all company's are guilty of is portraying their product in a positive light by having it do things that are not realistic in the...

I watched a couple of you tube videos on it. There is actually a lot of buzz out there about this drone. It looks like it doesn't have collision avoidance though and they were flying it in ways that were begging for a crash on one of the videos I saw.

Well I hope it lives up to the demo video.

I had no idea it was pre recorded the week earlier. I read where Lady GaGa was not actually on the roof, that shot was done earlier and edited into the performance but now it turns out the drones were not there either. hmm.....

Still waiting on mine as well.

Holy crap! why am I just hearing about this now? What a cool site! BTW AFV was looking for funny drone videos and I submitted a short clip of me attempting to film my dog catching a ball with my phantom 1 and he collides with the phantom. It wasn't an award winner by any means but it would have...

Well I have been watching as many Mavic videos as I can and its really good. With the Karma you can detach the camera and use it separate from the drone but IMO that's the only advantage. If that's what your needs are then definitely buy the Karma but from everything I have seen the Mavic is...

I was definitely impressed. Pretty cool technology. I wonder how they do it? Is each individual drone given its own set of personal GPS waypoints to follow? do they reference off of another? I can see where a computer program would work out the choreographic's but how do the drones execute it?

One thing I have found is that LE is very interested and excited about the technology but they prefer to have their own personnel control it rather than a civilian volunteer. The local sheriffs dept here in my county has a volunteer search and rescue team and I'm sure that would be an...

Just got done with a Skype interview with a drone video company. The guy emailed me some additional information and he called me Patrick in the email. Just wondering if by chance it was you he was referring too?

I have been to the Drone Vibes FB page many times and "liked it" as well. It never shows up on my news feed. The only way I can see what is happening is to perform a search and go to their FB page directly. Normally when you hit the like button the liked page or ad will appear often on your news...

And that folks is how its done... I thought you might be LE. Sounds like this is going to be a great benefit to your city and beyond, plus your creating the model for others to follow. I was on another forum a long time ago and there was a LEO there that did essentially the same thing you are...

Good luck. Sounds like you shouldn't have a problem. Just curious, who do you work for?

Not sure how it would work going downhill. Probably just fine. The mavik has a follow mode where it can follow a hiker uphill and compensate for rising terrain. It's likely downhill isn't a problem.

Yes, there is a simple connector that you buy that plugs into the USB on the go pro and sends video out. The fpv doesn't go through the go pro like you mentioned. You will take the "video out" from the go pro and wire it into the "video in" on your fpv transmitter. you could also build your own...

Very nice! I just picked up a phantom3 4k off of craigslist because I had a job for a marketing company and my 680 was just too big for it. I have been away from the latest DJI stuff for a while now and am impressed with what they offer. Since winning the mavik I have been viewing you tube...

You probably damaged the battery that went in backwards but hopefully not the others. Check everything with a volt meter and charge the others individually and make sure they take a full charge. Even if the one that smoked shows good I would be suspicious of it.

"At this stage, debris from the drone – assuming that is what caused the damage – has not been located." Hmm...still not concrete evidence but something definitely hit it.
