    The American Battle Monuments Commission very kindly gave permission to film in the Normandy American Cemetery outside public visiting hours. It is situated above Omaha Beach, which is visible near the end of the clip, where the Americans suffered particularly high casualties on the morning of...

    DJI Released New Firmware 5.24 for WKM

    Funny ... not !! So this is the point DJI has reached. Their customer base doesn't trust them at all to do the job properly. I too am content to stay with what I know and live with 5.22's warts until this 5.24 upstart has been proven - because it at least gets the job done at the moment. Over...

    DJI Released New Firmware 5.24 for WKM

    Come on then. Who is going to be the first to test the water? Who is going bravely go where no man has and update to this new release? Thousands of mistrusting S800/WKM are waiting for the green light before ... you know what.

    I am so impressed by these clips I decided to reference them over here on the 'Show what you Filmed' thread.

    This footage was taken a couple of weeks ago at a rather fun event. The aim was to break the existing Guinness World Record for the largest number of moustachioed folks in one place. The crowd joined in with gusto and apparently they did it because Parc Astérix, who was hosting the event...

    Wind Power Plant assembly at 140m

    What a thoroughly absorbing clip that is ... they are ... really nicely set up gear you are using there. I never cease to be amazed at the absolute stillness that a well calibrated BL gimbal can achieve. Well done! And just who are these guys that clamber over, around and inside these...

    S800 Return to Home won't work.

    What's all this about recalibrating the compass at each location? Never heard of that before - except perhaps when you change continents.

    Good job. Totally agree about the 'Producer's Shot' at the end. Very well choreographed. This also excellent stuff. Delightful area. Can't help but notice though that guys in southern and eastern Europe (and beyond) appear to be much less restricted or maybe less inhibited with flying in...

    Secraft SE Retracting Landing Gear

    Whoops! My mistake. Well it so happens that I previously had the Secraft S800 retracts and yes, they did this. When power was applied they would often activate briefly - which of course is highly undesirable if you have an expensive Zenmuse waiting to hit the ground every time you connect the...

    Secraft SE Retracting Landing Gear

    This is precisely what mine were doing at times, when and if they worked at all. There is a four second safety delay built in so that if the retracts have not completed their raising cycle within that time they are then locked into the down position and will require recalibrating to get them to...

    I see you like a relaxed shoot - with armchair standing by.

    The DJI rant thread

    No pain here. Just bemused that they imagine I am going to pay to ship their rubbish back to them. I don't give a stuff about a company's warranty structures when I have the upper hand. Or do they have a Ninja Team in the shadows behind my local boulangerie waiting to fling triangular pointy...

    The DJI rant thread

    I told you this might not be over yet. So this is the DJI policy on replacement of faulty units under guarantee: "... you must pay for the shipping cost. Our rules are warranty goods and defective goods need to be prepaid by the sender." Hmm? Good, eh? I replied: "Whatever 'Rules' you might...

    DJI Big SALE everywhere....??? Give-away party for a reason.....

    Well that little post would be far more engaging with a bit of expansion. As it is, I can't get past the image of bicycle wheels flying around. No that is just plain bad marketing from a bullshït company that has not one solitary grain of understanding of how far they are alienating their...

    DJI Big SALE everywhere....??? Give-away party for a reason.....

    ... or the devil :devilish: BTW Bart 'n' onlocation, go find another thread for all that hifalutin' nonsense. We were quietly enjoying a bit of DJI bashing an' then you come barging in getting all techricul 'n' stuff. :)

    DJI Big SALE everywhere....??? Give-away party for a reason.....

    Well I am with Chris. I reckon they are trying to get rid of all their old, faulty gear before releasing all the EVO stuff. The only halfway decent thing DJI makes (on the multi-rotor SIDE) is the Zenmuse, but IT don't feature that highly in the deals, which mainly push the S800 and the WKM...

    A big HURRAH for Secraft - a throughly honourable company

    Seconds out ... round two ??? AH, now I get it. Location: San Diego Sorry friend, scholars accept that correct use of English extends no further west nor south than Boston, becoming increasingly corrupted the further inland one travels. Given that San Diego is about to fall into both the...

    A big HURRAH for Secraft - a throughly honourable company

    I do wish the Americans would learn to spell. They're over there with their Multi-rotors. BTW, somewhat missing the point with that response.
