I understand that some of the more recent mounts were not threaded at all, or did I misunderstand? If we already have a threaded mount (early production as I understand it), all we have to do is remove the old lens and replace, correct? I know you have to focus it and remove the glue from the...

Do you have any relationship with any company or companies you are representing in your posts?

It honestly sounds like you're (the OP) trying to rationalize why the CG03 and the TH is the best choice. It simply is not, for YOUR application description,but if that's what you want, then go for it. It's your quarters. For your description and implied budget, the Inspire with an X5 RAW is...

FWIW, I'm an amateur hobbyist, but RC flying and photography are my passions... as an AMATEUR. Having said all that, I own multitudes of DSLR's and mirrorless systems. I also happen to own (among other multis) a Typhoon H, a Phantom 4, a Phantom 3 Pro and an Inspire 1 v2. In the interest of...

Someone mentioned somewhere about severe pooling in the battery box. I remember suggesting (seriously) investigating the possibility of drilling a couple of small holes if nothing was below, but I don't remember following up or even seeing the thread pop up again.

I have multiple quads including Multiple 350 qx's, a P3P, a P4 and an Inspire That's why I was considering selling it. I never really needed it anyway and I don't need Karma to do what the H does. I get that. I think I'm going to just hang on and see where the wind blows. I've waited this long...

There's nothing wrong with it. I thought I made that clear. It is just like every other H. That's what I don't want.

First, let me admit something. I have TONS of quads, multis and things that fly. I bought my H on a whim one day at my LHS. I really wanted to like it, and if it worked as it was advertised, I would, but between all the firmware problems and a questionable camera at best, it's time to part...

Maybe I need to re-think this Dancing with the Stars thing. Maybe I should be watching after all. ****!

That could certainly be done with an Inspire with an x5 and a good lens and a secondary operator, but my guess is that was something like a 5D Mk III or a Sony mounted on something bigger. Love my Inspire. They're all utilitarian to me. Some are better at some things than others. Lately, flying...

Anybody know if it works if we ever install the RealSense module?

Exactly.

The other problem we're up against is jackasses doing stupid crap. Just look around the forum threads (especially over on the Phantom boards). We are our own worst enemy. You have to at least admit that the AMA affiliation did help this. Now everybody that has ever owned a pad-controlled...

You're more than likely going to have to fix that at the local ballot box. It is highly unlikely that there will ever be federal or state law limiting how communities enforce these kinds of laws. Educate. Rally local council members for support. Remember that the press has created a public at...

You can say all you want negative about the AMA and badmouth it all you want, but for all its faults, and I've been member for 25+ years; you wouldn't be flying at ALL today if it weren't for their lobbying efforts in congress. I don't know who this "Don't Fly Stupid" group is, and I don't...
