About Me:

Intersted to learn and develop my skills in DIY Drones ..I have been a Media and Campaign Director for 15 years and my current interest is 360 degree HD panoramic Images and Video


Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest

Hi, We want to purchase a Quad that is suitable for the following but we have a problem and need a serious and informative answer.. We have a complexed project in Auckland New Zealand and require the ability to take 360 degree high quality panoramic images and video.. The objective is simple and similar to the example provided here.. http://www.360luchtfoto.nl/Loonwerkveld/loon.html The problem is as we discovered last week that the Go Pro Black Plus uses 2.6 Wi Fi for video streaming back to an android and also the actual camera controllers are also Wi Fi 2.6gig which choke out the quad controls.. We need as a priority to be able to see live what we are taking the images of as they need to overlap accurately for good matching and processing.. So we foolishly and naively uniformed purchased a BLADE 350 QX and it “nearly fell out of the sky on the first flight” on the very first outing with the Go Pro Black PLUS on WiFi and the Blade 350qx flight controller competing for bandwidth. We were very sad to return this Blade 350 as with Stable as it is amazing but not suitable for our application.. See below some of the Blade chatter regarding to not disclosing the Wi Fi conflict when stating it is go Pro Compatible.. How stupid are Horizion to release this like this… http://answers.horizonhobby.com/answers/6449/product/BLH7880/blade-350-qx-bnf-with-safe-technology-questions-answers/questions.htm So what can you offer that will allow for Stable / Smart / Agility and GPS Altimeter control with rock solid images and video live streaming back, needs to have independent camera controls and something like safe to home return plus follow me and way point setting and stability with a 2 axis gimbal… Mike Packer
