    Is the FAA changing its own policy again?

    Editor, you nailed it. Enough said. Ignore these clowns and move on. We will colonize mars before any government agency can get in front of this so called "concern".

    ND Filters

    Hey guys. Personally I think it depends on the situation. If I'm shooting with limited natural light, lets say a wooded drive way or any object just after sun set, i will go at it without my ND filter but during sun rise or mid day i am a big fan of the ND filter. Reason being, sometimes the sun...

    Motor Hours-Long Lasting?

    Good to know. Yes I am very interested. What time do you expect to launch? Do you think a better FPV screen could help with image quality? I also bought a Neutral Density lens which gives a more edited look prior to the actual editing process. Pulls out the hue & saturation, makes trees look...

    If the Hauppauge 610 doesn't produce at the level we expect does that mean all analogue to digital converters will produce the same outcome or are there more capable products? Sorry I haven't had much time to dig deeper into this. Thoughts?

    No luck at BestBuy. Ordering from Amazon. Question: When streaming from FPV to PC w/ a analog to digital video converter should i expect to see the picture as it is on the FPV screen or do I get the quality at which my GoPro is recording in the air (2.7k Protune)?

    I am familiar w/ Skype but if I decided to turn this into a small business then the other options will need to be explored as well. I have a few guys behind me who are pushing me to launch this as a professional service while giving me some funding to buy additional equipment/copters. Its...
