How much did this setup cost you?

[cjirik]

Which motors and which control unit / sofware do you use? Do you have any experience with the Lumix G3?

[Macsgrafs]

Very smooth flying considering there was a strong wind, what stabilisation are you using?

[jeffscholl]

@Macsgrafs Mercalli V2 with CS5

[Macsgrafs]

@jeffscholl Thank you, will that also control a octo?

[Macsgrafs]

@jeffscholl ooops I didnt read what you replied properly, you do post stabilisation then. I didnt know if you had gyros or the like on the gimbal.

[jeffscholl]

@Macsgrafs I just have tilt on the gimbal, but the FC doesn't evel it. (Control it on my own)

[Macsgrafs]

@jeffscholl Nicely done, so what control board are you using for the octo? I have been looking at the hoverfly pro, but a few have said there are problems with the firmware?

[Macsgrafs]

@jeffscholl I see, hoverfly pro has auto level for camera gimbals but no good if you want to control the cam yourself.

[jeffscholl]

@Macsgrafs Not familiar with the hoverfly board. On mine I set the nic compensation and run it manually with my Tx slider.

You've got a nice setup. Best microkopter aerial I've seen! GH2 is the perfect camera for MK. Better image than dated EOS 5D. Good stuff!

@JDPLTD Why is the GH2 better than the 5D for MK filming? As far as I knew it had more noticeable problems with rolling shutter issues and I cant really see any other reason it would be better. Please let me know why you think it is superior.
