    Sony CX760

    Excellent movie camera but not a serious contender when it comes to stills. The quoted 24 mega pixel resolution is interpolated so not a true measure. There is a composite output that will feed a video signal irrespective of whether it is recording or not. andy

    Mikrokopter MK or DJI....

    One thing MK has going for it is the amount of telemetry it can handle. If you use a Graupner Tx/Rx you get all the major items, battery voltage, capacity used, satellite count, altitude, distance, Rx signal quality , temperature and more, right there on the Tx LCD screen. Voice readout if you...

    Sony Nex5 Remote Control

    Just another heads up for the StratoSnapper. Its a versatile little thing and not dedicated to one camera brand or just IR signals. It will operate with a range that includes Sony, Canon, Nikon, Pentax and more. It has uses well beyond an AP remote control. andy

    British MR fliers UNITE

    I'd say that an operations manual does not need to be aircraft specific. Its all down to the way it is written. I see nothing wrong with sections that cover multiple variants for as long as it is written down. The operations manual would then not be for, say, a Droidworx hexacopter with a WKM FC...

    British MR fliers UNITE

    The CAA accept the BNUC-S as proof of pilot competence and their ability to fly to their own operations manual. It is not a validation of the aircraft. There are no airworthiness requirements for sub 20kg UAVs. EuroUSC will fail a candidate for bad piloting but not for a bad aircraft if it...

    British MR fliers UNITE

    My reading of it al is that the CAA are open to a 'type' classification but that EuroUSC have decided that 'their' qualification is system specific. So it is the BNUC-S certificate and EuroUSC who have to change not the CAA. My conversation with higher ups at EuroUSC did seem to bring out that...

    I'm sure alot of people are thinking this but I'm going to put it out there. There will be a reaction comparable to world war 3 if I am to become a $700 paying beta tester! I'm confident we won't as this product has the benefits of industry professionals behind it but I still think it needs to...

    Forget the gimbal!

    It's certainly ambitious. I especially am interested in the bit at 1.20!
