    X5S LUTs

    Thanks for the input. The Arri LogC Rec709 suggestion? You say the stock Arri LogC Rec709 is a good starting point.That is not in my list of LUTs in Premiere CC 2018. Did you get it from somewhere else.

    UK Relaxed rules

    At least you have 150m. We cannot film gatherings at all, not even 50 people at a local football game. Understandable. The crowd is watching the game, not your drone when it goes rogue. Unlike participants in a controlled film shoot.

    Takeoff from ships

    Glad the shoot went well. Great subject. It easy say 'hard not to get great shots', but I really like the reveal from the tug to the tanker. Well done.

    UK Pfco practice maneuvers

    Banked turns are not to Look Pretty. Just as in a Piloted aircraft, a balanced turn is more efficient and stops you sliding sideways. You can also do tighter turns at speed. My examiner asked me to demonstrate banked turns. Other manoeuvres included flying a vertical box to show spatial...

    Australia DJI Go v3.00 C1 and C2 mapping

    Apologies, you are right. It appears that the options are dynamic, depending on the function of the controller. I had updated to V3.0 on my SLAVE, just in case there were problems. The Gimbal option does not appear on the SLAVE in the choices for C1/2. However, V3.0 of the app on the MASTER...

    Adjusting Yaw/Tilt panning curves and speed on X5 Gimbal?

    Australia DJI Go v3.00 C1 and C2 mapping

    Sorry to confuse you. I only referred to the slave as that was where I updated to V3 of the DJI app first, and discovered there was no longer an option to select yaw/Tilt for the gimbal. Therefore, I was not going to update the master, as I would lose that function. In response to the other...

    Australia DJI Go v3.00 C1 and C2 mapping

    Agree with your comments on DJI. I also wish the manual camera iris settings didn't revert to f16 every time I change a battery.

    Australia DJI Go v3.00 C1 and C2 mapping

    Thank you for the suggestion Ed. I do know about the finger on the screen, but don't usually have a finger free when I fly - controlling height with the left stick and forward speed with the right stick. OK if I was static, using the beast as an aerial tripod.

    Adjusting Yaw/Tilt panning curves and speed on X5 Gimbal?

    Sorry, I just started a related thread. What do we do now that dji go v3.00 no longer allows toggle on the pan/tilt control dial?

    Australia DJI Go v3.00 C1 and C2 mapping

    having installed do go 3 on my slave controller, I have confirmed that we can no longer assign gimbal tilt/pan toggle to C2 switch for the LH rotating control. As that is so. How is solo operation of the Inspire Pro any different to a Phantom 3? (apart from a better camera) What is the point...

    Back to the theme of this post. I use Protective, a division of QVB insurance.

    Various Lens for X5R

    On the subject of NDs. I always use them as I do video and stills. Otherwise I can't get the f4-7 sweet spot at 25 fps 1/50 second for PAL. The 12, 15 and 25 are all the same size, but the 45 is smaller. Either get a separate PL filter set, or simply use a very thin step-up ring to use the...

    Various Lens for X5R

    I have the 12, 15 (stock) 25 and 45. I have actually found the stock 15 to give the best image, plus it has a lens hood that is useful to keep sun off of the lens if you have to fly towards the sun. The other lenses are dictated by circumstance - 12 when needing wide but are restricted by height...

    Takeoff from ships

    Will ATEX certify RPA's? Just as we were getting used to UAV as a generic term, Australia will be adopting the term RPA (remotely piloted aircraft) from the end of September. Another reason the media and public will keep referring to Drones.
