    The height is one thing I don't agree with! Way too high. No way you could maintain line of sight at that altitude.

    Do they require parachute systems in Australia?

    Creativity vs Safety

    Now the important point you mentioned there is 'people' or in the UK, the public. You can't fly directly over (within 50m during flight) the public or anyone not under your control. The actors in the above video are part of the crew and therefore under your control, providing you gave them a...

    Erm, apart from flying way too high at the end there's nothing wrong with that shoot. Legal in the UK. You could get an exemption to fly that high from the CAA if you find the right location. And remember, they are in another country with different rules. What is it specifically you have a...

    Client edited our vid and here it is

    PS - The final music wasn't so bad. Typical selection really. The edit was the same which is more important.

    Client edited our vid and here it is

    Alas you have no control over your footage once you've given it to the client. Just hand it over and walk away. Sometimes they'll do a great job of it, sometimes not! Just celebrate the successes and forget (or learn from) the failures. :02.47-tranquillity:

    You can use a higher shutter speed but it increases the rolling shutter effect. I used to use 1/200th but the rolling shutter when panning was terrible.

    Speed? Do you mean shutter speed? Well if you're filming at 25fps then shutter speed is 1/50. Or do you mean ISO? 200 is as low as the GH4 goes.

    What is actually the best Flight Controller for HL multirotors...?

    I've been flying the WKM for a couple of years. Latest firmware (5.26?) works great. No issues.

    What's your voltage drop?

    I fly GensAce and the voltage drop in a hover is 0.5V.

    What on earth have you done to that gimbal!? It is clear the camera is really low. Have you adjusted the Zenmuse yourself? If not you'll need to raise it yourself but loosening a couple of screws. The camera should be perfectly balanced before you try turning anything on. Cool?

    With the olympus you have to slide the focus ring forward (so it hides the numbers) to engage auto focus, and have it setup in the menu to autofocus. I personally don't use autofocus but this method works on the bench. For infinity with have the marker touching the infinity symbol rather than in...

    Please help me connect FatShark and Gimball to drone

    Unfortunately you have asked a huge question. It's gonna be many hours of you Googling each component to see how to connect it and what each wire does. Don't worry, we all had to go through this stage (and still do...). :02.47-tranquillity:

    You don't need to half-press the shutter. With AFS/AF it does it automatically.

    A2 Problems Catalogue

    Agreed. I'm all for vibration dampening of the sensitive components (IMU). I still use PU gel for everything as I have done for years. I want the IMU detecting the large movements of the aircraft rather than the vibes going through the frame.

    A2 and Motors Beeping on S900

    I imagine it's a low voltage warning because you are trying to use a 4S lipo! Try the recommended 6S one and see what happens.

    Update to the latest Zenmuse firmware. Should cure it.
