Behind the scenes at the TV Guide Comic-Con hangout: Phantom 2 w/Zenmuse H3-3D gimbal, GoPro HERO 3+ Black (at 2.7K / 17:9 / 24p), DJI Lightbridge and Atomos Ninja Blade (monitor and local recorder).

Hanging out on the TV Guide Magazine Yacht at San Diego Comic-Con 2014 with the Game of Thrones cast! I love that the default reaction to a Phantom 2 is to wave at it and to do a little dance. Shot with Phantom 2 w/Zenmuse H3-3D gimbal, GoPro HERO 3+ Black (at 2.7K / 17:9 / ...

Here’s how I have my DJI Lightbridge configured for Phantom 2 and local recording. I’m using DJI’s 5.8G radio control and replacement receiver for Phantom, so I’m not running vehicle control over Lightbridge (which is what I’m doing on the S800 EVO setup). This keeps the radio light and simple, which is OK because the ...

Woz decided that he was suddenly curious about the DJI Phantom, so we chased him and Janet around while they were on their Segways. Shot with DJI Phantom 2 quadcopter, Zenmuse H3-3D gimbal, GoPro HERO 3+ Black camera with Ragecams 5.4mm lens. Thanks to Jeff Cable for instigating! (Source: https://player.vimeo.com/)

A few buddies and I spent the early morning today flying at an abandoned structure near San Francisco. All of them had zippy mini-quads and were rocketing all around—and, inside—the structure. I wish I had a sport flyer, too, but I haven’t had the time to do a build. While they shot between support pillars ...

Best meeting ever. I drove about 100 miles to the east to some beautiful, gigantic, sunflower fields with photographers Barry Blanchard and Jeff Cable to do some flying with DJI Phantom 2 quadcopters and Barry’s Spreading Wings S1000. So beautiful. Photos shot with DJI Phantom 2 Vision+.

I finally had time to install DJI Lightbridge on my Phantom 2 tonight. Lightbridge is a wireless HD video transmission system that also includes radio control and telemetry support using a single ground end and air end. I followed this video tutorial by DJI (hilarious, because I’m actually the one who is narrating it; the recording was ...

Aerial drone photography near the arctic circle. I returned a few days ago from 10 incredible days of flying a DJI Phantom 2 quadcopter in Iceland. Iceland’s natural beauty is nearly unparalleled, and I felt fortunate to be able to wander around the country with a camera that could be moved both horizontally and vertically ...

Aerial Fjadrargljufur Canyon (Fjaðrárgljúfur), near Kirkjubæjarklaustur in Iceland. DJI Phantom 2 quadcopter w/Zenmuse H3-3D gimbal and GoPro HERO 3+ Black camera. Conditions were very challenging. Wind was swirling around in the canyon, and there was light rain. The walls of the canyon are 100m high, and access to the canyon floor requires walking through the freezing-cold ...
