LOTS
lots-of-hassle-and-a-6-minute-flight
I'd not flown my JPX330 for about 18 months, and as I'm waiting on parts for my V5, I thought I'd fly it. I tried last weekend, and broke my carbon prop through general stupidity - back today with my wooden prod. 2 Failed takeoffs, and sweating like a rapist, I finally got airborne on my 3rd attempt... only to have the engine lose all power.. then the prop to hit a buckle that had got loose. Argg..... Anyway, fixed prop, stripped engine down, replaced all fuel and new plugs, and it's now running ok again. I think either bad old fuel or a small chance (never done it before) a muppet didn't put oil in the fuel...

HOTTE
hottest-february-day-since-records-began
Nice sunny Feb day - hottest since records began in UK.
So I thought I'd try the 2 new gimbals I've been setting up. I've spent several weeks configuring them and testing them with bicycle, car,etc - but this is the first flight test.
Both are Basecam/Alexmos 32 bit based gimbals. One is the CAME-TV the other is the SteadyX.
I think the came-tv came out best mainly because I configured the motors with more power than the steadyX. Also since the came-tv is 12v vs steadyX 8v, lower currents for same power makes it easier to configure motors with more torque.
I think I can probably get the steadyX better, but it lost it completely twice - one before take off (requiring me to cycle power), and once after going to full power at alti and then coming off - it sort of ending up pointing at the wing - and again needed power cycling.
the Came-tv definitely seemed to angle more into turns, but it did always recover, and never went mental like the steadyX.
So - I think the came-tv will be my gimbal of choice from now on.

Firstly I have had (US based?) based fliers moan this is illegal. It is not. Perhaps you don't realise that the UK has it's own laws ? news: we are actually a different country - get over it.
Perhaps it is not allowed in your country. However, it is a perfectly legal flight under UK ANO. And as it was in the UK, those are the laws that matter.
Model is 1.2kg (under 7kg).
-more than 130m from built up area (though video looks towards it it is horizontally 200m from built up area)
-more than 30m from person on ground at take off and landing
-flown with line of sight (not FPV) - the video is from gopro with gpx trace added later (obviously - it is HD FFS)
-good weather conditions, no other air traffic
- precautions taken (tested safe mode to cut power and to fly home if tx lost - both also manually trigger able)
-3rd party liability insurance.
MegapirateNG on a Crius V1.1 board with GPS. Cheap DJI F450 clone frame, Hobbyking 20a ESCs and 2216 920kv motors. 8x4.5 props. It's flying here with 2x4s 2200 lipo packs and a go pro. total weight 1300 grams. I continued to fly afterwards with same pack for a further 15 minutes.
