Plans of third axis stabilization are in the works to try and get rid of the yaw "swaying" when the wind picks up a little!"

"The ones I'm currently using that work the best are rated at 100g.
Previously I had eight rated at 80g each and I got reasonable results but still some jello."

"The martinez board from hobbyking comes with very bad PIDs and is notoriously sensitive to small changes and tuning. I spent months using the GUI altering the settings holding the gimbal by hand even before I got rid of self enduced oscillations…"
"Hahaha yeah would be quite alarming if you didn't know about it.
It was my dad driving the tractor, I live on a farm so plenty of free space to fly!"

"It took 3 flights to get all the shots seen in the video, a total of about 24 minutes flight time.
I run 9x4.7 inch props, the cheap slow fly ones, and a combination of battery's:
