If its weight of the case you're worried about, there is a half way house solution. GoPro sell a skeleton case which gives the protection and is well ventilated but not waterproof. http://gopro.com/camera-accessories/hd-skeleton-housing/

Ross is also correct but ... Alt Gr + Print Screen will print only the active window Print Screen will print the whole screen's worth andy

It looks like the MR is on the Police side and the CAA did hang the Merseyside force out to dry before they got their's very wet.

Make the window you want to dump active, then hold Alt Gr key and PrintScreen keys down together. This will copy the window to the clipboard. Open 'Paint' program and click Ctrl & V together to paste the dump into it. You can then save the file. andy

Dave ... Are you willing to split and sell only the Navi and GPS boards ? ta, andy

We seem to continually come across new, real life, uses for multirotors and this is a good example http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-tayside-central-15737359 What took my eye was what was written on the back of the fluorescent jacket the pilot was wearing. You cannot see the last line of...

The video link is very Chinese but there is a YouTube alternative and some info here http://rc.runryder.com/helicopter/t671027p1/ and its already on quadcopter.co.uk's site but no price http://www.quadcopters.co.uk/?PageID=DJI Wookong Flight Controllers&subCat=32 I'll be watching this for...

That is some really interesting analysis you've done. Does the improvement stay there once a camera is in the gimbal ? If it does, it would good to see if the same changes hold true for an AV130 as well.

With Droider getting reflective about where he is now I started thinking about where it all started for us and for others. Our's started 18 months ago with a promise to video a mountain bike race from a helicopter within 12 months, learning from scratch. After getting to within a gnat's whisker...

Sounds like an interesting project. Without giving too much away is there any chance of seeing how well your proof of concept actually performs ?

I have tried this but no longer do so after one LiPo swelled .... smoked and then burst into flames ... big violent flames. Just luck that I took it outside while smoking otherwise it would have been fun explaining it to the insurance company after the fire brigade left.

hi Iceman. Welcome to MRF. What camera are you looking at fitting to your setup? I am also looking at picloc but release dates are still secretive/sketchy from what i can make out. What kind of stuff are you looking at filming? hopefully you will find this forum as helpful as I have. Z

This was posted by Gary Mortimer on suasnews.com Using active radar control of height seems an obvious way to improve altitude holding. Since this is based on automotive stuff it should be a reasonable price. It also means there would be no limit on the altitude you launch from. Its interesting...

Yes it was the fireworks from china. oh and a word of advice. go with your gut feeling on which way to point fireworks as chinese to english translation wasn't that brilliant on mine. Someones front and back got mixed up!

I'm just thinking of the fun i could have with a heavy lift!

As its that time of year I thought i'd try some experiments. Z

I also found these new super bright LEDS from China! Z axis

I can second Daves and Iris's views on this thread. Its not a matter of if you crash but defiantly when! And when 'it' happens the last thing you will want to be onboard is a 5d mk2. You may also want to explore the various threads on this forum relating to the best AP camera setup. My...
