My 1st Flight tomorrow!

Clampit · Jun 29, 2015

Hey guys,

1st flight was a total success, loved every minute of it

no problems & she flew brilliantly.

The only thing I did notice was all the pics I took were over exposed but that was the least of my problems. I was more concentrating on flying safely so next time I'll have the photo side sorted, well I hope so.

Also, it attracted so much attention, I had more people asking about it than I ever did with my Phantom?

Well done Clampit. The Inspire is one beautiful bird.

Well done Clampit nice one,
The photo settings are easy to adjust to your requirements.
I used to live in Burnham and know the area well,

So you would recognise where I was flying then? I didn't attach the ND filter on the camera but I did notice even on my iPad the picture was very bright... I'll put my I1 in the garden, props off & have a play with the camera settings.

As a safety mesure could I suggest that you put a fan of some description pointing towards the cam as when I tried this I found out that the cam became quite hot! It just simulates the cam flying through the air and keeps it much cooler. Just a suggestion.

Looks like the yacht harbour off foundry lane,

You can alter the exposure settings and others with the wheel on back of radio.

Thanks for the info, I must admit I did notice the camera gets hot

Yep your dead right

I bet that's what I'd done on my 1st flight, I did play around with the right hand scroll wheel, yep defently different to my P2V

You were dead right with your suggestion, took it out into the garden & played around with the right hand wheel, I must of been heavy fingered with it....... Also noticed the I had the settings in manual mode instead of auto. Pictures have now come out great

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
