I think you guys need a countdown thread !!

I thought that's what THIS thread was for? Only 100 more until I get mine!!!

Don't forget the stated intention was to ramp up production as time goes on, so every week should see more assembled than the last for a little while...

Your all mad! Lunatics I say! Sell your P2V toy and get a real Drone with real GoPro video the P2 with zenmuse!

So you mean the same drone but with a different camera... :roll:

Where on earth are you having to drive 45 min, to your nearest depot? Thought Oxford was your nearest.

61 to get to me. :|

Just leave the screws slightly loose, set balance, mark position with a pencil, remove camera check position and tighten screws, re-install camera...done

True. I was really trying to get at the fact that a balance act might be required each time you fly, filter dependant. I guess you could index 2 lines, 1 for with and 1 for without filter. That is, however, a tad more work in the field then I think I want to do. I pretty sure I will just balance for the filter adapter, then use a counterweight for when flying with filter. That way, if I want to add or remove its a simple process. I'm sure the weight penalty would be insignificant.

Kidlington, yes. 47 mins there but only 38 back.

So gimbal got, gimbal installed, gimbal filmed. Real life has to intervene now for a couple of hours, but the fog is lifting so might get a test flight in and then do a combined kitchen table and sample footage one later.

I have to say though, the black motors and my circ polariser set each other off nicely...

Nice !
What was the customs charge ?

Nice one Mr PU........interested to know how easy you found the balancing for the DJI filter kit ?

That's tonight's entertainment booked lol

I'm gonna break down and order mine today.
I know, I know .... I'm operating in character, and I've considered I might be waiting now until December to get one.
But, as market forces always prevail, I do know it'll be raining these gimbals in little more than 10 weeks from now.

Let me ask those who have them: My lens filter ring weighs in at ~12m, and my circular polarizing filter weighs in a 15.3 gm.
So if I decide to fly at night, and remove only the 15.3 gm polarizer, do you think there would be a need for a re-balance?

 

[gfredrone]

Thats a clean look PU. I'll have the same setup w/ filter except my RP is black. Wondering if I should have went white now. Hmmmm...

FYI, a tip on seeing the full picture is to right click the picture and open in new tab.

Can we get a 360 of pictures?

Looks good! Do you have enough clearance for the Flytrex in the rear? I also noticed that you don't have the tensioning screws installed. Will you be using them?
