If not giving us std settings maybe Tabb or Jeff might write a little something how they think in setting up a new bird. The hundred of hours they spent setting upp copters and gimbals must have given them some knowledge on things to do and things not to do ;-) Please Tabb, a little something?
i like this idea. if i had any good settings for a heavy camera i would post them, but i am still trying to get my sony fs100 to point where i am happy with the video. one thing i noticed that really made a difference, is check every single screw, and tighten them down hard, even the ones on the roll pivot, and the crossmember holding the three tubes on pan axis. this definitely made a difference for me. all the screws were definitely tight before, but i got a lot less jitter afterwards.
George for the FS100 if you find that the tubes are slipping you mat want to consider getting the metal clamps.
Thats right Gary, but the problem with that sheet is that its only small sub 5 kg Mk´s. Not many Cinestar :-( Only one above 5 Kg :-( Please include MK Gyro settings in your spreadsheet. Best regards. /Janne
Janne rather than recreating something that already exists maybe folks could add to the spreadsheet that is already out there?
Sorry Gary but that sheet contains only one (1) cinestar. Most of the Cinestar users are here... Best Regards. /Janne
Janne while you are correct about the CS being under represented but from a guidance standpoint I would look at any 8 motor copter. General settings would get you close if the weight/configuration is similar.
