So I took the iris+ and put a thermal vision camera on it. I am working on getting it stabilized and getting HD 1080 30fps (with FPV?) using the same gimbal(2 cameras, one gimbal). Human Vision+ Machine vision = Drones that save lives. (video is real

I thought I would start a thread on reducing vibration and jello for those of us that use the Iris+ to shoot video.
Personally, I've found the Iris+ to be very stable since the first day. I rarely get jello, and any vibration I get is easily removed
