    Zenmuse GH4 Owners thread

    The most common issue I hear of is the Zenmuse HD>AV converter only converts to PAL, therefore the downlink monitor must be set to PAL. Perhaps with you it's the other way around. I assume you are resetting your monitor to NTSC? My typical setting 90% of the time is C4K at 24.00p which gives me...

    Glad to hear that. Did it improve horizon drift?

    Hahahaha - well at least you can always walk away from it. Not so much in a real aircraft.

    New Release: Connex HD Video Downlink 3000FT $1599.

    I'm also dubious of hanging the transmitter on the back of the gimbal arm given the weight and inertia that far from center.. and how picky these gimbals are.

    Does not seem like it would be a quick conversion.

    New Release: Connex HD Video Downlink 3000FT $1599.

    I spoke to DSLR Pros and they told me the mount isn't out yet. They also said it powers from the gimbal but the person I spoke to didn't know how.

    New Release: Connex HD Video Downlink 3000FT $1599.

    I've emailed them that question as well. If you're not somehow plugging in to the gimbal's power and need to add a battery on to the back of the Connex, that will add another 100g to the 130g already there, assuming a battery that lasts an hour (they say it draws 5W). The Zenmuse is so picky...

    True, and ignoring basic maintenance and warning signs of an impending failure I guess. Still, I don't fly single engine at night or over water :) Nice write up btw.

    I think I'd want something a little more concrete than that if I'm going to put a lot of money in the air.

    The supposed new FAA sUAS reg... WHEN???

    When I spoke to the UAS office last week it sounded like they couldn't wait for the final rule. They are slammed with petitions...

    New Release: Connex HD Video Downlink 3000FT $1599.

    I don't think there was a question it wouldn't work through the slip rings.. though there was a suggestion they were trying to sort that out. There is a pinout of sorts on the DJI plugs but I'm not smart enough to know whether it's a standard digital video signal or some wonky proprietary DJI...
