I like that. A good and proper use of the remote helicam platform. Good flying for a tricky subject and good camera work. Love the fog!

Those of you coming from the SR world will be familiar with governors to control the rotor-head speed and therefore the concept of electronically controlled blade rotation speed is not so foreign. Still referring to SR operation, throttle stick movement between idle and governor activation is as...

Just be aware that the threaded part is M3, not the M2.5 of the S800 centre post.

Fair enough. But like you say, if one wants performance flight, do it with a single rotor. I don't look at MR's as anything else but a camera platform. I guess that is why I wrote that.

I always do. It should be a habit whenever you make any changes to airframe, FC or component layout.

Well, there have been at least five positive comments, all basically giving 5.24 the green light. How many do you need before you venture out? The only non-positive that I have seen talks about a tendency to drift to the side. Remember, Lanzar was going to go back to 5.16 to check whether it...

Some of this footage has already been shown in the Baguettee Western clip. This clip includes a bit more of the Mer de Sable theme park footage after an abbreviated 'Train Attack' section. What is particularly interesting is how stable the video is with the strength of the wind. Look at the...

Hell, what an awesome piece of kit that is!!! :tennis: Now everyone can have a GoogleCar.

Hello James, We have been in contact by email over this issue. In fact it was myself that originally informed you of this Auto-Focus/HDMI anomaly. If one wishes to leave the Nex set to Auto-Focus there do appear to be workarounds and having Object Tracking activated is one of them. To me it...

Yes. It was quite a blustery day so the S800 was bouncing around quite a bit above tree top level but otherwise everything seemed pretty normal.

Of course it behaves differently when switching between Manual and Atti and will either drift in some direction or lose altitude. That is the whole purpose of Atti. It stabilises! Anyway, why would anyone ever want to switch to manual? I really don't understand why the manual Mode is even there...

Yeah, well, it takes about four days to balance. It is not easy because every single axis (including sideways) has to be altered. Also, the small vertical bracket is about 1mm too thick IMO and does not permit the GH3 to be mounted forward enough for Tilt balance. You just have to keep at it. It...

8x Vislero 4S/5000mah flat LiPo packs. Very little use, full charge history available. Fitted with Gold Plated HXT 6mm bullets w/ Protector Flying time ranges from 1hr:19mn to 3hr:04mn (full details available) Purchased September 2011 for a MikroKopter Octo but then I got a DW AD-8 and the...

I replied (rather belatedly, sorry) to your latest PM. Please verify your GPS sensor location values. On the photo you sent (with the IMU.v2 on the damper tray) your GPS 'x' value is completely wrong. The screenshot shows a value of -20 and, looking at the photo of the setup where the GPS mast...

Help is at hand. I have uploaded a zipped folder containing WM Assistant 1.3 & 1.4. v1.4 is for the new FW5.24 and v1.3 is for the previous FW5.22 I don't know how Windoze handles it but to downgrade the iOS app on a Mac: 1. Delete the v1.4 app from the iPhone or iPad 2. Delete the same from...

Don't like to say "... told you so", but ... Told you so! I raised this exact concern HERE when the WKM Assistant was first announced in March. How would DJI handle the compatibility between different firmware versions and the WKM Assistant iOS app? We now see that with the very first update...

Well done Kopterworx! Waiting for the update - because I don't like left drags, but I would like to have RTH functional. Don't care about the LED show. Don't have a clue what they mean now.

Yeah, go on. And don't forget to video it so that we can all watch it disappear off to within a 15km radius of Tiananmen Square when you test the RTH :)

Train Attack! A Baguettee Western! So you just can imagine how much fun filming this was. And at the end it can even be strung together as a mini-Western! The sequences in this clip were filmed at La Mer de Sable, a Theme Park north of Paris, France. La Mer de Sable translates literally as...

Still beating the S800 into submission. If only Droidworx had been a bit quicker to market with the XM's and Lite's it might have all been different. But, I have the troublesome ***** and so I have to beat it! With a hand firmly placed upon a big piece of wood, it appears as though all the...
