Administrators Brad Posted February 19 Administrators Share Posted February 19 This poor neglected part of the forum 😉 Got myself a drone a few weeks ago and having a lot of fun with it. Wanted one for photos and just learning but here are some samples! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Moderator Foot Posted February 19 Super Moderator Share Posted February 19 Nice pics Brad, I'd freak the fuck out I's loose the drone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Brad Posted February 19 Author Administrators Share Posted February 19 I'll be honest I still freak out a little any time I take it over water but the more I fly it the more confidence I have. My other fear is it being attacked by a bird but it hasn't happened.....yet 😉 BRad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandyLand Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 I have never looked into it but I bet building your own would have quite a sub culture...I do know however carbon fiber sheet is readily available for CNC projects is quite beautiful, very strong and light.

ricindahunting Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 What drone did you buy Brad? I ended up buying a dji phantom 4 obsidian after asking here and doing more so doing some homework. It is an absolute weapon but I'm yet to master the footage fine tuning. I think you need to be savvy with camera settings? I made the mistake of trying some settings that Bendigo aerial suggested from you tube but now it's far from ideal for me personally. This is a little clip from the girlfriends place out the back a little way into government land I'm assuming  1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Brad Posted March 10 Author Administrators Share Posted March 10 I ended up getting a DJI Mini SE. Most of the features of the DJI Mini but cheaper. Didn't want to outlay a tonne of money and decide I didn't like it. Photo mode is currently in Auto but I've just bought a filter set to try ND and CPL filters. I want to see if I can get even better pictures although I have no complaints. Filters really come in their own for video footage but I've not done a lot of that yet. Its really about capturing movement etc. Brad  Here's a sample video. No filters, default settings and no editing. Still just testing  2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Jeff, 1st pic is Nelly Bay! I would never do that forts walk on a hot day. It eventually hit 31 degrees yesterday when I did it but by then I'd well and truly finished it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
