A number of you have asked us about if our Headplay goggles have the blue screen problem. The good news is that if you have purchased a headplay headset from us since August 2015, then you already have the new firmware that was introduced to solve this issue. A demonstration on how the firmware works is shown in the video below. If you want to record stabilized video with your gopro camera onboard your FPV plane, using a 3 axis brushless gimbal will get the job done. However in order to keep it safe during landings and takeoff you dont want to hang it underneath your aircraft so you will need to invert the gimbal to mount it on the top of your plane. For details on how to do that head over to our guide over on dronetrest.
Just wanted to share a quick video I took testing out the Iris quadcopter and the FY-G3 gimbal. If anyone is interested they can find out more details of how I went about attaching it here, otherwise a short summary below :-)
I just made a quick mount for the longer arducopter legs, and a mount for the FY-G3 gimbal that uses the existing gopro 3 mount that comes with the Iris, so that it can be attached/removed without needed to do any modifications. If you are confused about which system to get (Ardupilot Mega 2.5 or 2.6) you should read the post over at dronetrest - APM2.5 or APM2.6.
In summary, APM2.5 is best for Fixed Wing UAV's and APM2.6 is best for Multirotors! |
