Unlike pretty much all the other Flight Control options, DJI actually provides a pretty comprehensive Manual (or Quick Guide) with every new software release. DJI may commit a whole swathe of sins but the effort they make with the Manual is to be applauded. However, there are one or two really...

Dunno if anyone told you but you are supposed to calibrate the compass in the middles of a public park - naked. Yes, wiv no clothes. This is to completely eradicate any possibility of introducing magnetic anomalies into the calibration procedure, thereby corrupting the process. I'm guessing you...

I shall consider myself properly reprimanded. Neither. An eye for an eye really. It annoys me when someone cannot be bothered to spell-check. Anyway, apologies for unloading on you a bit there. Once you have been around here for a while you will become accustomed (and eventually irritated)...

First of all, spell my name right. Second, why does someone just "getting started" need to carry a Red Epic? Third, have you actually tried flying with 10kg of total payload? If you have I am willing to bet that your X4 flies like a pig ... or rather, struggles like a pig ... for all of four...

Hey Hnrysj, None. I wonder if you have ever even seen a Red Epic? If that isn't just a plain idiotic question it must be rhetorical, since none of your listed machines is capable of lifting a 6kg camera payload in addition to the LiPo's and camera mount - bringing the total payload to around...

I fail to see either the point or the attraction of the AV200 brushless conversion. The whole point of brushless motors is direct drive of the axis and the consequent speed of reaction, so to have any form of mechanical gearing between the motor and the axis would seem to largely cancel the...

Nope. It is a very rudimentary affair that requires endless patience precisely because there is no 'intelligent' logging of flights only and no way to identify them bar a relatively meaningless log number. One would have thought that with access to satellites it might also be able access the...

A new log starts with each Power On so, unless you keep clearing the log, they multiply rapidly. Consequently, identifying individual flights is not really feasible - except the last one when it crashes.

Me neither when I am flying and filming and under those conditions I did not know of the problem. It was when I used it as a handheld - just carrying the whole EVO - that this Pan issue showed up when rotating the airframe by more than 90° in Manual and FPV modes. The Z15 jerked and graunched...

Does the update also address the Pan issue, whereby it stutters and farts after a 100° turn in FPV and Manual modes?

Appreciate the responses, gents. A bit more reading and general poking about revealed the 'LUT'. The Look Up Table. This works effectively as preset to instantly correct the image, lifting out the colour and applying contrast. Unimpressed. The GH3 image looks great - without all this tiresome...

I have a brand new Blackmagic Pocket that has been sitting in its box for about six months now. Recently I have had time to charge the battery and get its firmware updated etc. and try it out. I can sling a video clip together like everyone else but certainly make no claims to being an editor...

..... and so the sad DJI saga continues .... sorry guys.

Let's hope that those who jump in with crossed fingers that all will be wonderful will also write of their experiences. I would not trust this item at all yet - particularly as it isn't even working right in the video. DJI say it is based on Zenmuse technology. This is already sufficient to...

If you didn't love them before or even never considered it y'all gonna love giraffes after watching this one. The password is < giraffes >.

Unfortunately it all depends upon the vintage of your Z15. The large screw in picture 1 that goes right through the Roll shaft does not have to be touched. Instead, the motor shaft is rotated relative to the Tilt/Roll tray by loosening the two small, semi-concealed grub screws at the rear. But...

Thanks for this report. I too put up with the slight deficiencies of the 1552's over the T-Motors' for the easier transport. I have similar misgivings over the Bi-Pod anti-vibration damper kit. It certainly isolates the Bi-Pod - and gimbal - from frame vibes, but at the expense of structural...

+1 :)

What facilities within the Assistant for error messages are you referring to, Ed? I have found that the A2 is pretty moody when it comes to calibrating the compass and often have to do it several times before it gives the OK. There is nothing in the Assistant that I have noticed other than...

Although it is against the policy of many I build airframes to dismantle, because sooner or later they all have to be dismantled to some degree and it is just a pain when everything is glued and taped down in inaccessible places. So I use a lot of velcro and double sided foam tape or gel. BUT...
