    Sunstone Garden: Mixing Drone, DSLR and GoPro footage.

    Good stuff! It is tough working with different cameras, and getting it all to blend in.

    Flying without an OSD

    You can get one of these, but I would recommend having an osd. They are really not difficult to install. There are plenty of great helpful minds that can provide advice too :)...

    No video footage from new FPV setup!

    Yes it could. Get another one, and make sure that you have the correct voltage, and also that an antenna is connected before powering it up.

    DJI Phantom 4 Pros and Cons

    I loved everything about mine, and only sold it since I was getting a p4p. I did not like that it was white, but now you can get a version that is black. The only real con I think of is the low light performance.

    Goodluckbuy Gimbal and Naza Lite

    It's on the RC2 port. Therefore a typical connection (using the RC2 port as example) will look like this: One of the receiver's GND pin is connected to RC2-GND, which is the pin next to the label (see image below, the black GND cable is the top most) The receiver's channel 3 signal pin is...

    To buy a Mavic Pro or wait?

    I would not consider getting a P4 unless there is a budget constraint. I would go with the P4P if image quality matters most, and if image quality does not matter then go with the Mavic.

    To buy a Mavic Pro or wait?

    You could be waiting a long time. I would get it, enjoy it, and update it if the needs arises.

    DJI Is Locking Down Its Drones Against a Growing Army of DIY Hackers

    Drone hackers have forced DJI into an arms race. The tension between drone pilots who want complete control over their aircraft that they bought and DJI, the world's biggest consumer grade drone maker, has come to a head. An arms race between hackers and the company is earnestly underway. Read...

    TRADS, LLC

    I still have not applied for an LLC. I am thinking sole proprietorship since it is much cheaper. I don't really do any flying that would be much of a liability risk. I will warn you that this may destroy your love of the hobby. I currently only fly for profit, and cannot even remember the last...

    Need to build hexacopter

    I would not recommend installing that large of a motor on the 550 frame. I think the props would be too large, Have you looked at the Tarot 680, the tarot x6, or the Dji s900? I think you would be better off with one of those frames. What is your budget?

    Is my drone too heavy?

    Up your battery voltage. 2S is not enough voltage to spin the motors quick enough to produce the lift you need. move up to 3S.

    Phantom 4 Pro as first quadcopter

    I have actually had very good support from DJI, and the repair process is pretty quick. I have read about the nightmares, but my experiences were very good. Where are you located? I use State Farm for insuring my Inspire 2s, and it is only 60 per year for 5k coverage on each. (120.00 total) So...

    ESC question

    The escs need to be able to handle the max amp draw of the motors. Check the amp draw for the motors with the prop size, and cell count of the battery that you are thinking of going with. https://www.ecalc.ch/xcoptercalc.php is a good site for comparing setups.
