Ok thanks.

Ok let's get back on the subject.

OI should be getting my Vue this week.

Drone horder what lens size did you get.

13mm fast. I looked at the comparisons and liked the idea of a compromise. did not what the field of view too narrow for search and rescue or finding hotspots at a fire.

Oh believe me I've looked at the Alta. The Titan X8 has much longer flights and lifting capacity on paper. I'd like to see a bit more proof in their numbers first however.

So True. Long Flight times in a truly functional platform are some times like Big Foot... talked about but rarely seen! While I believe these guys that they got good times in a hover with no wind etc... I would really like to see it in action with acceptable responsiveness and maneuverability.

nice. That is what I ordered also but a 13mm is narrower than a 9mm.

and wider than the 19mm.
compromise... afraid the 19mm would be too narrow.
Based my decision on the examples of on the FLIR website and geometry.

almost had a heart attack over the $$$ but I am glad I did it!

Wow.. fell asleep on a drone.. and left the laptop on.
sorry man, thought you bought the 640. my bad

 

[Outta Control]

No worries brother. I would have liked the 640 but for the price and performance the 336 is a better bargain. Though later on down the road I might get a TAU2 for the X4 and keep the 336 for the AntiGravity.

We'll see how this project progresses.

Yay! My FLIR is finally built and should get here on Wednesday.

I have to get my workstation ready to build the housing for the FPV camera and FLIR combo.

Cheers

I had to disassemble it to do some photo/video work but will have it back together for a flight tomorrow night so Ill snap some pictures.
Where is a good place online to buy this infamous 10pin gopro mini usb cable? I could not find one (the gopro 3 I have has only a 5pin) and ended up making my own.

I saw this on FB today. After looking at it I can certainly feel that it would be difficult and a PITA for a 2/3 axis gimbal to be used by the iI1.

Got my VUE today and played around with it. I was told the VUE only has 4 color palette but I this shows different. Can you confirm this DroneHorder.
