I'm still searching a small patch of woods that I've been searching for a couple of months now. It's in there somewhere, now that fall is setting in I'm hoping the leaves will fall off the underbrush and I can find it. I sure wish I had a tracking device on it!

Yea, I'm afraid that the stupid factor will definitely get us into trouble. The AMA membership covers us with liability insurance, but they have guidelines on where and how you can fly. I don't think any of these crazy stunts are covered. All it will take is someone getting beaned in the head...

Here's a link, the on board video shows it's a Phantom. Now they are looking for the owner. They are saying no laws broken though. http://thelibertarianrepublic.com/break ... k2m-iSkpHR

As they say, if it ain't broke don't fix it. I work in the pro audio industry and a lot of our equipment gets periodic firmware upgrades. If it doesn't affect what our customer is doing with it, we don't upgrade. I feel the same way about this upgrade. No one has indicated that this latest...

The point they were making in the news article this morning is that drones are getting into areas where aircraft can't, and in weather conditions that aircraft can't fly in. If anything FEMA needs to reel in and utilize this valuable resource instead of shutting it down.

I saw a news snip this morning PRAISING the use of Drones in the relief efforts in Colorado, then I see this article this evening. The title is: FEMA threatens to arrest volunteer drone operators during Colo. flood relief http://dailycaller.com/2013/09/16/fema- ... od-relief/ Unbelieveable...

Try turning the IOC off in your Naza Assistant software, then do the compass calibration. When you are finished hook it back up to the computer and turn the IOC back on. That's the only way I can do it with my Naza Lite controller.

Great idea! Cheaper than most tracking devices too!

I just got the lens in the mail. I'll let you know how it goes.

From my limited knowledge I believe all Phantoms have the Naza-M-V1 controller. The Naza-M-V2 has a light orange label while the V1 has a red label. The Naza-M-Lite also has a red label but do not come with the Phantoms. I've replaced my V1 controller with the Lite when the V1 got fried. The...

Not up to the task??? It only took him 2:44 in the video to do it! :lol:

If all you do is video, a Mac might be worth the investment. We use I-pads all day for Audio tuning but our production video is done in Vegas and Edius on PC's. It has to do with the fact that Mac doesn't support all the control systems we have to program, and we also use PC based Autocad for...

I can imagine that there will be more creative works like this soon. Hopefully legislators won't get too hasty in passing even more restrictions.

If you are serious about video editing, here is a review of the top 6. Most are in the $600 - $800 range, but like anything else, you get what you pay for. Our videographers seem to like Edius and Vegas the best due to ease of use and range of formats supported. By the way, I work for a pro...
