Okay, so after replacing the video half a dozen times today this one seems to be the best: Alas I exported so many I can't remember what settings I used. Had enough of looking at the bloody thing to be honest! I'm already sick of my showreel. Gonna go out flying tomorrow and see what new...

Excellent advice! You can use anything to balance it, even money. I know Carapau uses some coins I believe. I use a link off an old watch strap as it happened to be lying around and was the correct weight.

Maybe list if you're using a gimbal or not. For a Phantom it ain't bad. If you're using a gimbal, is the camera balanced perfectly?

I'm pretty sure my computer would just say 'no way' and walk off. I think I'll stick to what I know for now. I thought £552 sounded alright. You can pay that off in half a days work with this aerial stuff. Which reminds me, must go and look for work!

Yeah, I get it now. I find multiples of twice the frame rate work also, hence why I landed on 200. I'm uploading a 720p version to Vimeo now to see what difference that makes. I tried to correct the brightness in the 'countryside nook' scene but have made it worse I think. More work to do! I...

I think you'll be fine! There's bad reports about everything if you look hard enough. When you get it, spend a few weeks going over every aspect and Googling like crazy until you understand what does what. The shear volume of DJI sales means there's bound to be more bad reports compared to other...

So many replies! Gosh! Not sure where to start. I film at 25fps and export at 25fps. On my PC everything is awesome. Just uploading to Vimeo and YouTube causes this problem. Reduced the Vimeo one to 720p and appears much better. This is the first time I have used Adobe Premier Pro so just need...

Latest showreel: Cheers! (Does it appear jerky to anyone? Any tips on using Adobe Premier Pro with AVCHD video files and Vimeo would be great!)

I only have Spektrum stuff so yes, I like it. Haven't tried any other brands so a bit one sided in my experience.

It was this one: http://www.firstpersonview.co.uk/screens/7-inch-fpv-screen You'll also need the battery (can't find it on that site anymore). I also use the Pirate Eye sunglasses as my pilot cam as you can maintain LOS with the aircraft whilst being able to see the video feed in the corner...

As far as I know you can't start and stop recording the GoPro whilst in the air. But since it's automatic it doesn't really matter. It does have Bluetooth but it's not really practical due to it's short range. And yes, you can record and have a live down-link at the same time.

Groovy. I haven't really looked into 1.2 and 2.4 mixtures so have no idea if I'm honest, just random readings on the forum :02.47-tranquillity:. I think the lightbridge will be really awesome if it works well. HD downlink is a very tempting thing for live broadcast!

Yes, it is. You'd need a 6 channel at the very least. I would go for 7 or 8 channels as you can make use of all the functions then. I had my DX6i for 5 years but have now given it away to a friend. It had just enough channels for most things. Ideally you want some three position switches. More...

Howdy. My S800 with two 5000mah GensAce get a comfortable 9 minutes plus a few left over, I could go to 12 minutes but I give my lipos an easy time (come down with 30% usually).

Hey. It shouldn't make a difference (in my mind) if not all motors are connected, a bit quieter maybe. It is the motors that make the noise and not the ESC or NAZA. That I'm sure of!

Or any system. With single rotor helis you might have it so that the blades go to zero pitch and throttle stops, for a plane you might have it drop throttle to zero and slowly bank so it spirals to the ground. In our case (multirotors) we have it set to initialize a return to home. It's saved me...

It's the receiver antennas that are the most important in my opinion. When you say 'planar' do you mean those straight antennas that come free with everything (we call them 'rubber duckies')? They are the worst! Put a clover on your VTx and patch on your receiver. Awesome range with that combo...

Hey, noticed no one had answered you. It's not anything to do with unbinding. If the aircraft goes out of range then the receiver outputs a default signal set (of your choosing). In my case it selects the DJI failsafe mode which flies itself back to the home point.

I tend not to fly above 15mph. Your F550 can probably handle more but it's not fun and sucks the lipos dry. We're all itching to fly by this time of year!

Okay....that was pretty cool! It's like a 3D capable table!
