The trigger I am using for my Nex-5R is for both video and photo, and uses separate channels for each. However, I combined them into 1 three-way switch, and when I move up on the switch, it fires the shutter for a photo. If I move down on the switch, it toggles the video on off. The down side...

I'm with DDuncan on this. I'm new this, been working on it for 3 months, and have loved every minute of it. I have had my share of accidents and I learn my way and build on lessons learned, and read about what others do on the forum. It does consume you and all your free time gets sucked into...

Peter posted the same references I was going to. Just to add... With S.bus you cannot use any channel you wish. As Peter said, you will need to assign the transmitter to use specific channel numbers since you can no longer wire the receiver output to the Naza input you wish. For example...

Sybasurfa, I've been looking into this myself, but it has had to move way down on my priority list to work on. I'm in the process of doing some repairs, and higher on my list of to-do is a travel case for the full setup. But if you find a solution, please post here. Likewise, if you come up...

From my experience, having used both the V1 and V2 boards, you will no know the difference using the Z15 assistant software. The software will indicate Aux3 working just fine, but only photo will work on the V1 board. Once I replaced the board with the V2 board, the video record on my Nex-5R...

I use the 6208 s.bus connection to my F450+Naza+Gimbal, as well as my S800+WKM (with Z15 on separate 6208). I haven't had issues with either setup.

I'm new to MRs, but wouldn't it make sense to create various conditions with the transmitter and ties it to a switch, or even the Man/Att/GPS switch? At least that's what I've done, though still learning how to best fine tune my setup. What I did for my 8FG (don't know if works on Dx8) is I...

Hi Serval, I got the arms last night (old style, for now), and had a long phone call today with the distributor on how and what he does. This weekend I will begin the process, and I will try to take photos along the way and post the process here for others that may have interest. As for the...

BTW, I think we need to be careful about our teams. GH3 refers to the Panasonic Lumix GH3 model, not the GoPro Hero3. The photos posted by DJI and EBM show the full size Zenmuse on the S800 with the new GH3 camera mount, but they also show the Zenmuse "junior" for the Hero3 camera mounted on...

DJI posted on Youtube a video a few weeks ago with this Zenmuse "junior" for GoPro attached to an F550. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjC37FtQMmE And here is DJI photos of the event as well: http://www.dji-innovations.com/exciting-new-releases-at-nab-2013/

Yes, I came across that also. FYI, if anybody is wanting to know, the two cases the Aerial Technology uses are the 1650 (for the S800 and Tx) and 0350 (for the landing gear and Zenmuse) This setup seems great when all you are doing is hauling the equipment around in the back of your vehicle...

Maybe it's just because I'm a packer, and like things small and compact, but to me it seems like the inconvenience of some minor assembly for the same of a smaller case would be better. Please tell me if I am oversimplifying things, but I am working on designing a case around the 1560, 1600 or...

I haven't carried either of my multirotors with me on travel... yet (will be in a couple of months). However, I have traveled (domestically) with 2 LiPo batteries, and TSA didn't have any problem with that part. I know I've seen several others on this forum post about their traveling...

I wonder if this is even a legit DJI product. Their website doesn't seem to mention it.

I should have added that I did try reseating the GPS connector best I could without unscrewing the top plate. I also did run the Naza calibration which appeared successful (I.e. gave me the steady yellow then the steady green then no lights temporarily thus indicating a successful calibration?)...

This has not been a good week for my helis. While my S800 is down for repair, I decided to take my F450+Naza out flying after a couple of weeks on the shelf. The problem now is that I am getting the three-red-blink constantly, even after 15 minutes of sitting outside with wide open skies. I...

Thanks Chris for the help. I did get ahold of my DJI distributor and he confirmed needing to cover up the solder joints, and recommended liquid tape. So that will be my project for the week once the replacement arms arrive. Thanks again. Tim

I agree there is a lag if the person is using the GoPro's Wi-Fi connection to an iPhone or some other device using the Wi-Fi? The lag on the GoPro Hero3 is pretty bad, ranging from 2-5 seconds delay. However, if the question is about using the GoPro video out to a video downlink of sorts, then...

Oddly enough, I am not finding on the forum any discussions about S800 motor or ESC or arm replacement. After a crash this past week, I am needing to replace an arm on my S800. The ESC and motor are still good. Taking the arm apart I realized the S800 setup I a little different that other...

This past week I sadly crashed my S800 with WKM, and at the heart of the problem was that the WKM was in Manual mode and I couldn't get it out of it, and I panicked. (It ended up being that the transmitter had another dependency build-in to the signal I was using, and overrode my Futaba SE...
