The camera also moved slightly, allowing it to rub against the ribbon cable, which I also fixed. Now my problem is that I am receiving a...

    P3P Gimbal Repair Dilemma

    I recently damaged my gimbal in a crash. I have been trying to decide what I should do going forward. The yaw arm is slightly bent and the ribbon cable rubs against the camera when it pitches. Hooking the gimbal up to the Phantom I get a gimbal pitch error. I am guessing this is likely due to it...

    Mountain Railroading in West Virginia

    For this shoot I drove to each location and captured the footage. The furthest away I was from the Phantom was while flying at the top of the mount where i'd estimate that I was 800 ft (244 m) away. For the other scenes I was quite close. Although I do use FPV to frame my shots, I like to be...

    Mountain Railroading in West Virginia

    I had a great weekend of flying in the mountains of West Virginia. This is my first complete video I have edited with FCPX. While I have been flying for well over a year and a half, I have mainly focused on aerial still photography. With the addition of a P2 and H3 3D, I have started to film a...
