Hello all, I'm reading the forum for about two months now (as long as I have the Phantom v1.1.1). With all of the info the Phantom has grown out to be a fully equiped machine. It's upgraded with the PMU-V2, Arris CM2000 v5, HERO3 Black, Mini iOSD, BTU, Flytrex, FPV, LiPO alarm etc. And it is flying very well although weighing approx 1300 grams. (flying times around 7 minutes)
I am also using a Futaba T8J TX/RX combo which proved to be a good investment. Using the VR-knob to tilt the gimbal.
However, I would like to 'take a picture' with the H-button of the T8J. Now the HERO3 is taking pictures every 10 seconds (limiting my framerates) but I would like to take the shot myself. Using the 8th channel of the Futuba and a switch connected to the receiver could make it work. But how to set up the Futaba, which switch to buy and how to control the Hero3 ???
I cannot imagine I'm the first one to have this idea... has it been done before ? Thanks for any thoughts on this !
