    YEAIR - Combustion Engined QuadroCopter

    Interesting. I always thought a combustion engine but with collective pitch props would be a great combo. Also great for keeping weight down as in the UK fuel doesn't count as weight!

    which urban filming rules in france?

    No experience yet. BBC are sending me there end of August so I'll be able to tell you more in the next month once the planning has been done and permissions granted.

    which urban filming rules in france?

    I believe filming anywhere near people or urban areas is super difficult in France. You'll need a parachute at the very least. Out in the countryside you'll be fine though. Absolutely need permission for each area you fly in. The penalties are harsh and the country is a little sensitive to...

    z15 bmpc gimbal problem (start up)

    I just checked mine and it's plugged into the iOSD port. Sorry, I think i was thinking of the GPS one in my last reply! Seems weird how your pan axis isn't doing anything. Does it respond to control inputs?

    Hi Bart! All going great here. Flying almost everyday and lots of exciting projects. Hope you find a new house soon! :)

    z15 bmpc gimbal problem (start up)

    As Bart mentioned, check your can bus (grey plug, black wire) connections. Also check in the zenmuse assistant software that your mode buttons are functioning correctly. This is a relatively common problem with new builds so don't worry, just keep reading through the manuals and you'll get it.

    Led bicycle lights....

    Great, ordered myself a Knog! Didn't think an LED light could be so cool... And it happens to fit the diameter of an S900/1000 landing gear and arms. Result!

    Zenmuse GH4 Owners thread

    One way is to recalibrate your compass in as metal free environment as possible. If you have an A2, try advanced IMU calibration. I just updated the Zenmuse firmware to the latest version and did the zenmuse calibration thing and it has helped a tiny bit.

    Wookong Configuration Error CFG-ERR(8)

    Ah, so that was all it was, the assistant! So copter was fine but program not responding. I find some USB ports work, others don't. No idea why. And you have to have the Wookong plugged in and powered up when you install the DJI driver. Happy flying mate! :)

    Wookong Configuration Error CFG-ERR(8)

    No response in the assistant? That's the clue, should've mentioned that before. ;) Have you changed the receiver connections before the problem happened? Could they simply be plugged in upside down?

    Wookong Configuration Error CFG-ERR(8)

    Usually with Spektrum you have to bind twice. First to just say hello to the receiver, then, once you've calibrated the tx in the assistant, rebind with your failsafe set. It really is just a programming error somewhere. Just go through things a few times and it will click. You using your...

    Zenmuse GH4 Owners thread

    Right, so, I forgot I had another S900 and Zenmuse (even though it's sitting right next to me!) and tried the GH4 on that. Works perfectly in NTSC and PAL! The only difference with it is I haven't updated the Zenmuse firmware.

    Zenmuse GH4 Owners thread

    Hmmm, that's weird then. I don't care about the output, but want to record at 24fps. The Zen doesn't output a signal in any thing other than PAL (green light doesn't flash etc). If I start in PAL and leave everything powered on, switching to NTSC works and Zen outputs, although green light on...

    Zenmuse GH4 Owners thread

    So, NTSC! I need to record in NTSC with the Zen and GH4. If I set the GH4 to NTSC I get no video out. If I power up the zen and GH4 in PAL then switch camera to NTSC I get video out. This will kind of work but adds 30s to my setup time. Anyone know of a better way to stay in NTSC all the...

    Mine works fine too. The update didn't help my minor horizon issue.
