Thanks RedRyderMedia! I'm a Mac guy- use Final Cut for my editing. Pinnacle Studio for editing on the go, eh? I'll have to check that out....

Nice work Quad Bros! I've seen you guys on instagram. Keep up the good work! Do you use a gimbal for your footage? I can't tell... if not, it would help a lot to keep your footage smooth and minimize the need for post-process stabilization.

Posted in the video section, but realized it is not technical and nobody really looks there for footage.... so.... I love seeing footage from other people- gives me inspiration for future shots. Thought I'd share some of my stuff. Here is a quick link to videos from my youtube, vimeo, and...

Nobody ever believes this... but this with a bit of velcro and my gopro. http://www.amazon.com/Kikkerland-KT21-A ... B004A7XQNM

Just realized I love seeing sample footage that people post, but I never share. Here is a link to some instagram teasers that I post, as well as my vimeo and youtube. I use my phantom in almost all of my vids. If you like 'em, click to go to my page and follow me to see more...

I need to replace one little 'copper ribbon cable' that tore on my gimbal. Obviously it is impossible to find anywhere, so I need somebody with some spare gimbal parts or a gimbal that is hopelessly out of commission. Some people have been linking me to the wrong type of cable, so I found a...

Thank you SO much for this info! I really hoped somebody could give me some good input, and it is good to know that I'm not losing my mind. Maybe I won't be too scared to try my FPV again.... first I need to find a new gimbal or someone with a think black ribbon cable to replace mine that busted.

Herbie- do you still have your busted gimbal? I need the thin black ribbon cable that connects GoPro backplate to the arm... easier to look at than it is to explain.... anyways, I'm dying to find someone with a busted gimbal that can bear to part with that cable...

Is this something that is common? Should I be worried about flying in 'public' places? I read some stuff about how 'Futaba radios' can prevent signal interruption... is that something that could help me avoid this again?

Yeah, the two times it happened were both right outside my house in a park. One went wild and crashed into my neighbor's house two houses away, the other crashed into my neighbor's next door. I know the simple answer is that I just don't know how to fly, but honestly I would consider myself...

Fellow members and closet-geniuses... I need your help. Quick story to get you up to speed... I got a Phantom 1 a year ago. Loved it, flew it, showed it off.... one dreary day, I was trying to impress a girl with it by flying it outside my house. (true story...) and suddenly I lost control...

Waveown: You fly Phantom with broken gimbal? You sell me brokens? I pay you with coupons or I trade you fishtank. We talk. Does Phantom fly? No fly anymore.

I not understand. Why you bring Phantom down hard to not stop? It not made to withstand greatly hard crash. Gimbal break and Phantom break. Please no land fast.
