Yes, that's what I've been using for the time being. I had a nice one for my P3 that worked really well, though. Oh well, I can always just use the electrical tape for now. I noticed that the gimbal lock doesn't mess it up, either, which is nice.

Sorry if this has been covered somewhere, but I can't for the life of me find a lens hood for the Phantom 4 Pro camera. I need one desperately, as I do real estate work and can't keep from shooting sometimes with the sun in a bad location. Does anyone know of a lens hood for the P4 Pro? Thanks.

Yep, you guys are right. I just stuck it outside and let it do it's super loud beeping, and just as I was about to give up, it finished. Whew. That would have sucked. Just tried out the new POI mode, and it works like a charm!

I was updating the firmware to 1.4.0 or whatever, and it seemed like it was done, so I turned off the power, but apparently it wasn't done, so now when I turn it on, it just beeps very loudly. The Go app doesn't recognize any firmware installed on the craft. I've tried to reinstall the 1.3.2...

Ah ha. It sure is. Cool. Thanks again for the tip. Looking forward to some nice slow yawing... :)

Looking forward to trying this out - thanks for the tip. Do you secure the partially unscrewed portion of the stick or just try not to unintentionally unscrew it all the way while flying?

I've mostly been using my V+ for real estate work, so I'm tentatively happy about the law...

http://www.newsobserver.com/2014/09/30/ ... .html?rh=1 Looks like this goes into effect tomorrow. No prohibitions on photos or video as long as permission is granted? That's what it sounds like... :shock:

Cool performance - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6C8OJsHf ... obMqvi4ggg Wonder what kind of quads they were using?

Shooting RAW is good for photos, but you definitely see the limitations of the sensor when you start to push it in post. I think the OP was speaking of the video, which unfortunately is stuck at a ridiculously low bit rate, hence the compression visible in all PV+ videos. It would be nice if...

The actual footage in that video is not that great. I mean, it is great, but not outside the realm of the capabilities of the V+. One thing I do almost all the time is shoot ⅓ stop underexposed, as it seems the camera tries to overexpose nearly everything, which yields some washed out, crummy...

What is the funding goal? What amount needs to be pledged?

How do we get in on this when it becomes available?

If you're open to getting FCP X, you're set. There's a free fisheye removal tool from Alex4D - http://alex4d.com/7-alex4d-wide-angle-fix-effect Works great and is as simple as dragging a slider to fix the fisheye. Shooting in narrow field of view almost entirely eliminates the fisheye, but...

Definitely. P2V+ footage that hasn't had the fish-eye removed, either. :roll:
