    Hey John, It's mostly from the S900/GH4, there's the odd S800/GH2 clip in there from last year. Mostly one-man, the BMW is two-man. I mostly do two-man ops now. The ALTA is still in the testing phase, needs quite a bit of tuning first. Flies quite differently than a DJI FC, smoother and more...

    Rogue State Media - UK

    Hey mate. It's called Lyveden New Bield. It's well maintained by the National Trust. It was a folly that was never completed. They are slowly completing it (money is an issue of course). Thanks for all the positive comments guys! :) I'm not a great video editor so this took quite a bit of hair...

    Whoops, Obama and the Phantom

    A drone buzzes President Obama and nothing bad happens. Sounds like a good story to me! :)

    Error 27- Help me Please !

    Hi mate, Has it been flying okay up until now? You often get that error message when inside with lots of metal stuff around.

    IOSD troubles

    The black pearl doesn't display dual feeds I'm afraid. As Bart said, one monitor for each video transmission feed (i.e one with the camera feed and then a separate one for the OSD info).

    Can't get into GPS mode

    These chaps have one: http://www.buildyourowndrone.co.uk/dji-naza-m-v2-gps-module.html I don't like the look of that eBay one. Not heard of anyone using it to be honest.

    Can't get into GPS mode

    Non-DJI mixed with a DJI. Sounds like a bad idea.

    Black Pearl Monitor Batteries

    I'd switch to an external 12V power source, like a 3S lipo. They last all day so only one battery to charge.

    Welcome to the forum mate! :)

    Phantom Crash

    Hey mate, Sorry to hear about your crash. No, DJI won't cover it. So, after 15 minutes the battery must have been really low, usually all I get out of a Phantom is 12 minutes before the battery enters the danger zone. Was there any battery warnings before it freefalled? It sounds like a...

    Best Entry Level 4k as of Nov-2015

    Ah, that's cool. P3 it is then.

    Best Entry Level 4k as of Nov-2015

    I like 4K for it's latitude in post. Just being able to crop a bit and not worry about resolution is great. To look at it's terrible! I hate the look of these 4K TVs. Sharp and unreal. :eek: In other news...the DJI P3 would be my best out of those choices. Why not another Inspire? Budget?

    Inspire battery capacity rapidly drops in flight

    Hi mate, Quite a common occurrence at the moment. It's not a bad lipo, just a software issue. Are all the lipos software updated? Had the lipos been left charged for more than 10 days? And most importantly, were the lipos fully charged before the flight? For some reason Inspire lipos don't...

    Rogue drone crashes into Ferris wheel....oh brother

    We have the same issue here in the UK. Well, except the CAA are very supportive of the industry and give us great freedom to operate. Why can't the FAA do the same! I find these kinds of stories aren't that bad for the industry. It makes those of us who operate professionally look even better!

    Rogue drone crashes into Ferris wheel....oh brother

    Well, DJI do have 85% of the consumer drones market so those figures make sense. Glad you don't agree with the Boeing comment. That's how I feel about your DJI comment! Saying that, it does sound a bit like the US gun debate. I do believe guns are the problem. So maybe DJI, or should I say...

    Rogue drone crashes into Ferris wheel....oh brother

    ...and the 3DR Solo that crashed at the tennis match... Would of been a great post if you hadn't blamed DJI. It's like blaming Boeing for 9/11.

    noticeable vibration with e1200 + s900 (before takeoff)

    Agreed. Vibration during startup is normal the first time after transport. Once the throttle goes beyond idle speed the props will straighten out.
