    10" graupners on 4's

    I think thats the best combo I have had on my f450 so far. Havent tried the 9x5's yet maybe those are the compromise.

    Panorama mount ( automatic trigerring )

    Isnt this over kill? What would be different from just slowly yawing the heli and put the camera in multiple frame shooting mode? You are going to stitch the photos in post anyways and even with a 360 gimbal you would need to be able to hold the heading perfectly to use this effectively. I...

    HDMI to Composite for Nex5n

    I mounted the cam right un der the Av130 camera tray. Of course it isnt as nice as having the actual view of the camera but i think it is enough for rough framing. Perhaps if I found that cable you have there I might have tried making it work with the board but all I could find was a 3' hdmi...

    HDMI to Composite for Nex5n

    I have the same setup you have. Av130 nex5n and the hdmi converter but I ultimately decided to just use a Sony 600 FPV cam as the cables, separate voltage, and converter drove me nuts.

    California sucks! Video of cop telling me I cant fly in this large open grassy field

    That's good to hear. Thanks for posting. I needed some uplifting. Jforkner: if you think I was maliciously flying in that park you need to go get your head checked. I had no idea until i was approached by the power authority.

    California sucks! Video of cop telling me I cant fly in this large open grassy field

    the Regional parks district have one park that will allow you to fly non motorized gliders at 1 hill ONLY if you are a member of the local glider club. And thats about as good as it gets. I'm getting pretty close to throwing in the towel again on this whole project. I dont like having to...

    News Report on Drones

    We will never win this war against the government. Until there is a civil war and hundreds of years gone by to start fresh we will always be sheep with no say and only worth the taxes we pay. As this industry grows, not only will it become impossible to get work but it will be impossible to do...

    It's all Chinese so it's probably ok with anyone in the USA. Our world is due for a serious makeover.

    News Report on Drones

    it's almost like we got in too late. Time for everyone to sell their gear that lives in California or any other dense area. We're never going to beat the government. Anything and everything i have found to be enjoyable has now become illegal or a complete PITA. You would think with the taxes...

    California sucks! Video of cop telling me I cant fly in this large open grassy field

    Just another reason to get the hell out of this over taxed state where everything that is remotely fun is illegal! The last words he says are "good luck with your move." As I mentioned the unfairness of a few other tax laws and wanted to get out of California.

    Help with camera on FPV setup.

    Its all working fine now. my wires were all correct, it was just a weird thing that happens when you use the wrong voltage. I bought 1000mah batteries for the fpv. maybe too much but they were pretty small. I wanted to use my CC 10 amp bec but I cant jack the voltage up too much as I am...

    Just for a laugh

    When you recover it please let us know if something in the software was not set up correctly or if this was a fluke. I dont think many of us trust this feature.

    Help with camera on FPV setup.

    From Ira at Iftron.... "Hi Yuri, The Stinger series was originally designed for 2-3 cell operation. This design has done very well with the battery voltage sent more or less directly to the camera. Although the transmitter will function properly on 4 cells, there may be too much noise...

    Help with camera on FPV setup.

    Yeah i have all the wiring diagrams. Still makes no sense that a 3s battery would do what a 12v transformer will do when hooked up to a monitor directly. Something is up with the camera and tx. Is it possible that the go pro has positive video on the outside of the housing? then I could...

    Immersion 5.8 600mw tx

    Tim at readymade told me to only use 3s on these and NEVER 4s. So perhaps the easy answer os to just put a damn 3rd battery on the rig. I was trying to keep it simple. And NO, I do not have things working. there is still a very odd issue with the camera/tx together.

    Help with camera on FPV setup.

    The tx says on it that it can take 5-17volts. And it works fine when the gopro is plugged into it. The output is roughly line voltage -1 volt. And i realize this is too much for the rated 5-15v. But why then does it still not work when i plug a separate 12v power supply to it? It works this...
