They look like polystyrene to me.

Its a shame really. I'm glad I noticed this in the testing phase and not on a job!

Hey mate, I tried that also. All I could find was a video out setting. Cheers for the advice though.

Same here. I'm a low gain man myself.

It just looks like a basic setup error to me. Which motor setup have you got programmed in the RTFHawk, quad X? Been through the manual? http://copter.ardupilot.com/wiki/common-pixhawk-wiring-and-quick-start/ http://witespyquad.gostorego.com/rtfhawk-2-4.html

Yes! You've checked the props are on the right motors but are the motors turning the correct way also?

Yeah, just been reading a few blogs about it. One reads "sadly the sensor is no longer multi-aspect as on the previous GH2, so the 3:2 and 16:9 format images are achieved by cropping down from a 4:3 aspect ratio picture, thereby reducing the overall resolution." So somehow this is affected by...

Well, I tested it to make sure and....HDMI plugged in means lower resolution stills. Pooh bear! And yes, I need HDMI as it's on a Zenmuse.

Thanks chaps. Tried changing rapid fire mode. No change. Steve: Damn it! My GH2 takes full res photos with HDMI plugged in. The GH3 doesn't? Bugger! Glad someone gave me a GH3 and I didn't buy it then! Stills are still a large part of what I do as there is quite a demand for them and they pay...

Hi all, I've been testing a GH3 on my Zen today. All working great except stills. When I take a still with the camera button I get a full resolution 19mb pic in raw. When I take an exposure with the shutter release cable I get a 14mb still. What am I doing wrong?

Hmmm, that does seem odd. Usually 7 is about the minimum number of sats I get in a normal location. Is the WKM and compass/GPS new? Got it mounted on the pole away from other stuff? (I'm grasping at straws to be honest) :nevreness:

Once it has acquired GPS lock the first time it remembers them for the subsequent times, unless you move position quite a bit. Are you seeing just the purple flashing light? Then all good. One beep is normal. Moving the throttle without arming the motors is essentially not doing anything as...

That's just the wording on their website. In reality 7 days is plenty. They have turned mine around in a few hours on a couple of occasions.

And don't forget you'll still need an Enhanced Non-Standard Flight clearance when operating within certain places in London (as printed at the bottom of your permissions). They are super quick to get and it's just an online form.

That's correct.

I've struggled to keep mine under 7 kg. It's 6.9kg at the moment but I really want to use a GH3/4 instead of my GH2, but that adds another 100g! Bah! I refuse to go down to a single lipo set-up and have run out of weight saving ideas. Not having retracts saves quite a bit for me (DJI ones add...

I'm a huge fan of butane soldering irons. No wires and portable so you can take it with you to the field.

Basically, over 7 kg flights in congested areas will need to make a safety case to the CAA regarding the flight rather than the current application-type process. There's loads more but layman's terms and CAA don't fit too well into the same sentence.... I like that they clarify in 3.2 that...

Once again, flitelab has got it perfect as usual.

Yep, normal behaviour.
