My 1st couple of pictures looking straight down with my new RPG

Hi all,

Just thought I'd share a couple of pictures that I took today with my new RPG looking straight down, sooooo impressed with the results this is where I work, my office!

 

Thanks squid,

So pleased with how they come out, thought I'd share

 

Thanks dirk,

Could never take pics like that before with my old gimbal, glad you like
I'm the pink pig bottom picture on the right, see me........... lol
The barn bottom pic on the left is the oldest timber framed barn in the world, older than me, yeah right...

 

Yeah that's next then I need to somehow get it on YouTube, never done that before, can't be that hard

 

Here ya go, my 1st YouTube video, press the picture and here we goooooooooooooooooooooo!


Bummer, not working

 

Hi Cyclone,

Thanks for your reply
The arial view was taken at my max height of 400ft, I'm a good boy not going any higher than that, CAA rules, as you know....
When your taking photos your not looking at height/distant but getting that nice pic, all of a sudden you get the error message on screen telling you that "max height has been reached", brilliant bit of kit we have.

 

Hi squid,

Enjoy your flight time today, see if you can get some pics to share with us

Glad you like mine, very happy with them myself & the ability to shoot the camera straight down is a big bonus. I'm a maintenance engineer for the site so I look after the buildings, all the electrics & general odds & sods that need doing. I'm a electrical engineer by trade so this job is right up my street if you know what I mean

Hope your wife enjoyed the pics too, my next thing is to do a short vid of the site which I'll do within the next couple of weeks then somehow get it on YouTube, that all be a laugh

Have fun today

 

Hi squid,

Yep I can see you waving, bless ya... Well there you go back up in the air again & all working as it should, bet your a happy chappy now?

Soooo, what firmware are you now using? Did you manage to roll it back or are you still on v3.14?

On power down my camera stays level, don't point down like yours but I think other people's cams are doing the same as yours, have you got the new tx with the fly wheel?

We will have to start a new thread on "our photos"........

 

I've taken mine out to 900ft, now I know that's not far in some people's eyes but I was quite pleased with that, all on stock parts, no mods I would love to get the new transmitter & FX700 but like what I said in another another thread my lady wife has put her foot down & said noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo She's got something planned well I think she has she normally lets me have what I want.... I'm a good boy I am but not this time
Yep it's my b/day next month, the big one, click on my aviator & you will see.

Sorry forgot to mention, great photo, we will have to start a photo thread & have competitions with all P2V users, what do ya think?

 

Yeah just a small dot in the distance.. I was flying it just using my FPV screen & bought it back that way. I was in a big open field with no trees/buildings so I wasnt that worried. I just followed the hedge row back, no problems

It's nice to know we have home point/fail safe so if we do get into a Poooooey situation we can bring it back that way

I've tried to get some info out of my wife regarding why I can't buy anything else but she just says "you'll have to wait & see" what the hells that all about... I need to knoooooow.... Think that's what us guys are like, well I am anyway
