I'm glad so see I'm not the only one with questions with this. ;-) Thanks all. Very helpful.

Thanks both. I turned the job down actually. It's a bit of a drive and I would hate to get there and have the Go app tell me I can't fly, regardless of the facts. Pretty odd one as I'd be much more concerned with traffic out of Oceanside which is less than 2 miles away. Of course the real danger...

I've got a request to fly at 1715 Oceanside Blvd, Oceanside, CA. I've looked at AirMap and they don't site any restriction from Oceanside airport, which is less than 2 miles away. They do show a restriction from Carlsbad airport (Palomar) but I'm not even sure why that exists since it's further...

Clearly your shoot has past but just general guideline for anyone reading this thread... The worst thing you can do is underexpose your footage. It is always better to just let the highlights blow out a bit than to have noise and artifacts all over the shadows.

Going over the connector pins with a small ink eraser has pretty much put that problem to bed for me. Just be carful in the X5 pins and work from the center out or you'll bend them.
