    CAA Qualifications (UK)

    I have been looking into this for awhile and detect already customer resistance to paying a proper rate for aerial shooting even though the daily rate would only be equivalent to less than an hours worth of real helicopter flying. I have heard of production having a mate with a Phantom ready to...

    F550 battery size

    I think 4s is the way to go as you can then upgrade motors etc without too much additional cost. Once you start putting a gimbal and fpv you will need a bit more oomph. I run an F550 upgraded outfit and get a safe 8=9 mins on 4s 6100 batteries.

    Best shops in the UK and AU/NZ??

    In the year I have been getting into this hobby I have had first class service from all the above mentioned UK dealers. I would like to add BYOD to the list as they are up there with the best. As for Alex at UAV Shop well he is also the tops for advice, service and support. Should also mention...

    DJI acknowledges Zenmuse-GH3 fault. But when will it be fixed?

    Very impressive. For all their faults DJI's Zenmuse seems to be the best solution out there.

    colin guinn booted from DJI

    I am new to this hobby (10 months) and have many DJI products, Colin Guin 'sold' me the Phantom. The Phantom flew away, my other Naza and WKM machines have had mystery incidents and at no time did my official supplier indicate that DJI would be of any assistance whatsoever. Emails were mostly...

    AlexMos and other brushless gimbal controllers....what is the truth?

    From what I have heard the Movi just works. Film production pros do not have time to mess about, equipment must just do its job and that I think is what the Movi is built to do. Whatever the electronics someone has done the homework and knows the answers. My Alexmos and Martinez gimbals are...

    Panasonic GH3 Users thread

    I have used the Lumix lenses on a Panasonic 101 video camera and found the 14mm soft, the 20mm sharp , the 14-140 sharp but slow.

    Sky Hero versus TBS Discovery Pro

    I can understand Nitrox25 wanting to get moving but the F450 etc are part of the learning curve. I started with big ideas back in January and it cost a lot of money to get the experience now gained. I would suggest build a 450 and a 550 and even a Disco from 450 parts. The time will not be...

    I bought into quadcopters after seeing Colin's Phantom videos. Alas my Phantom flew away - finger trouble? we will never know. Anyway I am now hooked on the hobby so thank you Colin. I always thought that Colin may have had the influence that could move DJI towards a mission of customer care -...

    XAircraft SuperX

    Out of interest (I am new also) how does it work? I have been advised to dial in 40 per cent but if I am not happy is 50 per cent more or less control?

    XAircraft SuperX

    The great thing about Super X is that you can trust it. Many people use the switchable RTH to get them back on some form of recognisable course before taking over and flying again in Atti or GPS.

    XAircraft SuperX Configurator Error

    Don't worry it happened to me. Just slow down and get your software and firmware in order as per the above instructions. All will be well in the end. My Super X upgrade flies beautifully.
