Welcome Ray!

How possible is it to geofence fpv racers? I fancy setting up a circuit but want to limit the safety issues especially with new pilots Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hmm I'm thinking interference board more and more Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was shooting on my Phantom 2 with GoPro 3+ and Zenmuse HD-3D today and had problems with the vertical framing suddenly jumping. At times it looks mechanical, but mostly more camera-related. Here's the footage: Anyone had similar issues? Any thoughts on the cause? I had temporarily removed...

http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2014/dec/31/drone-photojournalist-arrested-gatwick-aiport-near This looks like quite a farcical event. Will be interesting to see what the IPCC makes of it.

Cheers Ben. Yep it all went fine as you said. No interference issues that I noticed. Shooting drone to drone was certainly challenging but we did get some nice sequences. Should be on BBC Breakfast Wednesday morning if you want to catch it

I'm looking to shoot some video from one drone to another. I'll have my phantom 2. Other aircraft Unknown at this stage. What are the issues to consider? Interference is my main worry, assuming we are sensible in avoiding collision. Is it safe for two phantoms to operate in close proximity...

I'm only a month or so into mine so hopefully just on renewal! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well we knew it was coming I guess. One immediate question..... My Permission specifies that the 150m congested area limitation doesn't apply (I am sub-7kg). Is this notice overruling that permission or will I be affected only on renewal? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ps Phantom 2 I should say. Phantom 1 would be easy!

I'm looking to upgrade the charger for my stock Phantom batteries. Is there one which a) can charge multiples AND b) offers a storage mode ?? I came back from a shoot with 7 batteries at 100% yesterday after a weather cancellation and it's quite a bit of flying now to run them down!

Does anyone have a definitive view on the merits........ a) Of using the Polar Pro ND filter to eliminate strobing shadows b) Whether or not to counter-balance it with coins? Discussions on this subject generally seem to go around in circles with one person saying it's fine and another that...

Agreed. I don't like the word but nobody knows what the hell you're talking about if you use anything else.

You'll find the assessment is extremely close to Kemble so that's the area to choose. Maybe B&B in Tetbury? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I can now answer my question. Yes, the pot did give me full control across its travels. The key is to calibrate it not just in the Phantom Assistant but first in the RC Assistant (even though it implies that only the sticks can be calibrate). Have posted about here too...

I think you'll most likely be fine. Does naza lite have a Home Lock function? You could use that at least to see if it knows how to come back to your start location

I've got a set of these skids to give more gimbal clearance and landing stability: http://www.heliguy.com/Quadcopter/DJI-Phantom-Spares/DJI-Phantom-2-Extended-Landing-skids/ But how the heck do I mount the compass? One possibility is to double mount the new gear on the old but I'd rather...

Has anyone fitted a new front-mounted pot for controlling the Phantom 2 tilt? I'm thinking of doing it, but I need to know if I'll achieve my aim of a less sensitive tilt at the end of it. I'm not sure how the calibration works, but if I make a 360 degree rotation my full calibration movement...

Thanks soler. Is it normal that discharging the battery to zero left it puffy? I knew total discharge is potentially unrecoverable but was surprised by the chemical breakdown.

Nope - just one of these guys http://www.lightinthebox.com/rc-cellmeter-7-digital-battery-capacity-checker-lipo-life-li-ion-nimh-nicd_p890054.html?currency=GBP&litb_from=paid_adwords_shopping
