We've got an aerial shoot in the works in Costa Rica and Belize. A camera will be an Alexa Mini and B camera will be an A7sII, so we won't be...
Hi Luis, Other than the crazy mini hurricane that hit our hotel and left the staff scrambling to clean up before our shoot, things went really...
Bryan, Ozkan, Patrick, Having a lot riding on these same 4014 motors (I'm in Mexico for a gig as I write this), I'd really like to learn more...
Basically, after powering back up to see if the problem had magically (and terrifyingly) fixed itself, I secured the copter to the ground and...
Thanks for the advice! Do you mean customs declaration form 6059B? And how can I get it stamped in the USA?
I've got a gig coming up fast in Mexico (flight's in 1 day). I was just going to provide some invoices and documentation for my X8 DSLR rig and...

Merhaba Ozkan, I'd pretty much decided on the 490kv U7s for my next build. In my extensive search for a retailer that has 490kv U7s in stock, I...
This is why I always find it funny when people tell me, "Have you considered putting a solar panel that?" (still not as funny as, "Hey, you know...
Ha ha, I was thinking of painting the frame white, adding rhinestones, and covering the whole thing in steaks. Drones go avant garde. If only we...
Hi guys, Great discussion. I want to go with 18 inch props for the extra lifting capacity (I'll be running 6s lipos, x8 config). Any thoughts on...
