    Phantom 4 Working w/ Slo-Mo In Post

    Thanks for the tip, still doesn't work though, I tried interpreting the footage, it just made it slower and longer. What worked for me is if you speed the duration of the clip to 400% and are using a 24 FPS timeline the footage matches the audio and frame rate of the other native footage. I'm...

    Phantom 4 Working w/ Slo-Mo In Post

    I totally understand all of this, it's just I've never seen footage that was "hard coded" slo-mo. Basically, I was wondering if there is a setting for future reference or workaround for the fact it was already slowed down in post. In other words, I shot 4-5 minutes of footage, but the clip was...

    Phantom 4 Working w/ Slo-Mo In Post

    Hi there, I typically fly the Inspire 2 Pro, but I decided to whip out the P4 for a hike. I have been recently shooting everything in higher FPS so that in post I have the option of going slo-mo when needed. Having not used my P4 all that much I realized that when I shot in 120 FPS (Slo-mo) it...

    Strange motor issue

    Short of taking it apart I looked that thing over countless times I literally cannot see any signs of damage what so ever, I can with certainty confirm I placed the wrong screw inside of it. I never started it, because as soon as I realized it wasn't flush with the groove I took it out and put...

    Pitching forward with takeoff

    I've began experiencing an odd inconvenience, I can't confirm when it started occurring, but it was prior to installing my gimbal. Every time I take off from the ground or platform, my craft always pitches forward during take off whether it has a camera attached or not, it always rights itself...

    9450 props

    Thanks to IflyninWY I too purchased a pair of 9450 and they are great! I feel I get much better control over my copter and have increased my flight time exponentially, also seems to carry the weight of a gimbal and camera much better than the stock props. I did not change any of my settings.

    Strange motor issue

    Completed the motor swap last night! Beyond nervous, I wanted to cry when the wires were snipped from the old motor. It was sooooo incredibly simple! Simply cut the old wires, cut half of the new wires from the new motor, did a western union attachment of the wires, put heat shrink band over...

    Strange motor issue

    There is nothing actually preventing it from turning. It turns physically with as much ease as the rest of them

    Strange motor issue

    Is this an accurate representation of the install? This is on a phantom 2 not sure how much it differs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsemQFP2s_o

    What gimbal and gopro camera will work for the FC40?

    The Tarot 2d is great price, great function, light weight, works with the Gopro 4, I had great flight times with it about 10-11 mins. Easy to install if you know what your doing. The ONLY issue is the set up, its awful to set up, but I found a great video that solved all my problems. You'll need...

    Strange motor issue

    It's not that it feels physically hard to turn it turns with the same ease as the rest of them, but when powered it stutters and looks as if something is caught. I'm now fairly certain its the screw I misplaced, I ordered a new motor, my brother is an electrician and should be competent in...

    Strange motor issue

    I know I began screwing the wrong size screw in to the set below the prop guard, but I soon realized that and took them out. No it does not spin freely, it spins, but is a choppy movement. New motor :shock: ...is that install a complicated one?

    Tarot 2d gimbal Help

    Hi all, I've had my tarot 2d gimbal installed recently and am experiencing issues setting it up. I've been on youtube and other forums religiously, but to no avail. I'm experiencing the common problem of it spinning around uncontrollably upon power up. I've connected to the software and played...
