.... and spend more money to fix a brand new thing that doesn't work. It's never ending :dejection:

Absolutely and precisely word-for-word what happened with mine when they went sour !! So DJ(erks)I, what do you say to THAT now? I'm not the only one. A bad batch of boards maybe? I know, why don't you issue a version 2 and charge us a discounted $300 for it?

HELLO? S800 RETRACTS OWNERS? WHERE ARE YOU? Do me a favour please and check to see if the green LED turns red for a couple of seconds when the legs are going up.

Er, excuse me? ... Quadrocopter ? Quadrocopter IS MK-USA. I forget the name of the software geek ... sorry .. 'engineer' that was originally involved on the European open source project that evolved into MikroKopter when they decided to commercialise their efforts, but he (could it be...

I am really not so sure about that. On a good day the retracts will inexplicably ... work ... once or twice. Therafter they will judder and jerk to nearly half way before snapping down and requiring recalibration. On a normal day they work on the ground and not at all in the air - regardless of...

Who else has received the email from DJI inviting us to enter their latest Film Competition. I replied to the email: "Are you joking? I am professional helicam operator with a stable of different single-rotor and multi-rotor aerial camera platforms and last December I purchased your so-called...

Well I agree. Just like the majority of S800 suckers I do not like it, I do not trust it, and it has one damn problem after another - airframe and WKM. Produces excellent video with the Zenmuse though, but I just don't trust the bloody thing. On the other hand, my Droidworx AD-8 HLE with MK...

Although this has been mentioned in the 'Rant' thread I want to cast the net again in my search for a solution, since the dïckjerks at DJI are prevaricating and wasting time over pennies. The issue is that, although they apparently worked normally when first installed (a few weeks ago) since...

Yes. The same behaviour.

I was so hoping to never have to return to this thread but one thing I will say about DJI is, they are consistent! I wrote explaining that the new retracts are acting up, that they work on the ground but not in the air. They duly responded asking for a video, because perhaps the board is faulty...

The cable comes out of the front of the IMU.

Well he flew it out of sight, ran down the street in a panic and eventually turned off his transmitter which activated the Go Home on the Phantom. Of course all this 'turning off the transmitter' business is now apparently accepted as a valid 'control procedure' when you have been a ****head...

He has bottled out and removed the post. He has probably removed the You Tube video evidence as well. But if you want to see something similar the skies are full of bloody idiots:

So fortunate that DJI thought about tits like you. What was the point of the exercise anyway? To see just how crappy a video you could make with the crappy GoPro. What a wanker. You are a prime example of the stupid, reckless, irresponsible jerks that are frequently mentioned in news reports...

Have you tried the 14-42 compact power zoom lens? I wonder if it is heavy enough to bring the gimbal back in balance. Apart from the lens weight/balance issue, I do not like the fact that the GH3 has to sit with its lens off-centre to the centre of rotation of the Roll axis. The GH2 lens sits...

Is the standard 14mm pancake too light? Does it need the 14-42 power zoom for tilt balance?

Like an idiot I went and sold my spare GH2 before the GH3 arrived. I have had the Secraft GH3 conversion kit sitting around for a while whilst I ummed and ahhed over whether to bother with the GH3 at all. There are only two reasons why I ordered the GH3: the ridiculous HDMI issue on the GH2 and...

I scrolled through Bart's long list of code thinking "Jeez, I cannot think of anything I am less interested in than buggering around with computer language" and then I came to your post. It made me smile. It's a jolly good job some folks like to work out code n' stuff, but it ain't for me...

One of the issues I had with the Secraft v3 retracts was that they did not retract quite enough (on the S800). They needed to go up another inch because the skids were still visible to the GH2/14mm when level and panned to the side. Perhaps you will not have this issue because the camera is...

Unless the GH2 is set to record at 24 fps the act of connecting an HDMI cable will automatically switch the video record setting to a default 1080i50 if it is set to PAL or 1080i60 for NTSC. So the answer to your question regarding getting video output via the Z15 is, Yes.
