SGDRIFters Drift Into Quad

[bozora]

Hi Folks, before brushless gimbal it took me a while to to get the right damper combo for a vibe and jello free vids. With brushless gimbal..getting rid of vibes and jello is just one flight away. Mount the gimbal, mount the action cam and you get the perfect vid. You dont even need post stabilisation! And the price od bgimbal isnt that prohibitive,,,in the sub 200-300 range

Bro Bozora, which gimbal you're talking about? I'd like to know as there are over 800 of them to choose from

It's tough to name names, Speeder and I have tried a total of 3 Gimbals each have either the martinez or the alexmos board for stabilization and they all worked well. PM me if you want to know the specific brands.

For me my gimbal of choice needs to carry both my actioncamera and the accompanying divebox (safety first balls!!!)...not many out there, but there are.

Or you can try calling Nigel from Drum Resources at Clementi near the MRT....

I got mine from his back in March, i think it was around $15 or much lesser for a container or 4 Moongels.

thanks for the info bro guile...

Hi, Feel free to swing by SGDrifters at Toh Guan every Tue, Thur and Fri, We'll be more than glad to tell you more abt existing FPV solutions.

We are kinda busy though this week as we are rehearsing for a multi-rotors flyby (plus multirotor as flag bearer) at Bukit Batok CC for the upcoming CC Pre-NDP celebration nite. So pls call Zhirong at SGDrifters (97773765) before popping over. Cheers!!!

wah, serious .multicopter flyby . pls post video .

Ah Yes....it's a request from the organiser. First they wanted to raised the flag via the multi-rotor along with the pledge or national anthem...then they want the multirotors to move across the event stage (quite a big stage!!!

Pls note that this event is happening at BB community centre on 3rd August (Sat)

All set for Bukit Batok CC Pre NDP celebration 3 Aug 2013.

We have a similar event at Ulu Pandan CC. No flyby....but fun aerial vid nonetheless.

To see the vid just search for Ulu Pandan CC Youth Club in Facebook

Hi, The guai leds position downward is casting unwanted reflections shown up during video recording.

So I tape a bicycle LED blinker for night orientation.

Hi Bro, there's nothing to lose face...fact is I actually had a lot of respect for people who diy their craft and it shows that you are passionate abt the hobby

I got the 1047 Falten Speed Prop from Singapore Hobbies Supplies. It runs the motors cooler vs the slowfly props.

Very nice. Looks like you got the Zenmuse too....did you update it to 3.14 firmware with the hibernation feature? Does it hibernate in mid air at times when you are doing fast manouvering? And does your landing gears show up when you tilt the camera downwards?
