DJI Z15G Zenmuse Panasonic GH2 version ultra high speed direct drive APSC camera gimbal for S800 Australia

Product Description

GH2 Version - Film Directors have only just begun to realise the potential storyboards they can draw for this new camera gimbal - Jib operators are in a state of panic when their half million dollar booms can be beat by the Z15 - Imagine a gimbal so fast that the human eye cannot detect any camera movement - how could this engineering feat even be done? - simple -> just combine the fastest direct drive stepper motors available on the market with dedicated high speed IMU electronics. The down side is that the motors are so fast and the torque to achieve this speed is so high - that the camera and lens combination must be exactly matched to the gimbal - this means the DJI Z15 Zenmuse gimbal is both APSC and Camera and Lens specific. This is the PANASONIC GH2 14mm fixed focal length lens VERSION - The Sony Nex5/7 version is here. Some film directors want to fly much heavier cameras such as DSLR or Red epic - sure - unfortunately DSLR mass inertia is too high - more-over these cams mass push the overall UAV weight off the clock and the aerodynamics of the multicopter to the Reynolds number can be lost - giving the advantage back to a traditional large RC helicopter which inturn has its own aerodynamic and safety limitations similar to a manned helicopter - watch this video below and decide if the GH2 footage is the real limitation or is the light weight and low risk of the smaller camera an asset to the film Director - give him/her options they NEVER previously had.... only with Z15

Tips

Information on assembling a kit can be gained by looking at the photos on the product page itself. If you stuck on an advanced kit then first read the Quad Noobs guide
MultiCopters should hover at 50% throttle and fly for 10-15 mins.
Balance all props - vibration causes junk sensors data and gello in video - remove the SOURCE of the vibration by balancing
Use a quality prop balancer(Du-Bro 499 Tru-Spin Prop Balancer) statically; then run them individually to check they are centred true and the tipshave the same path; any vibration will reduce the effectiveness of the Wii gyro or anyother gyro.
Attach any IMU or sensors such as Sirius™, NAZA or WookM with vibration isolation gel - Board with sensors solder to directly are just cheapo clones - commercial quality IMU use isolation vibration materials
Keep your PROPS OFF - not installed - until you are fully conversant/understand in full the functions of your Tx in full including TRAV (end Points), the arm and disarm procedures - realise that for a noob skiping or out-of-order set-up steps or moving sticks, or even static - PROPS may start at anytime without warning. Never install props prior to calibration of the ESC and testing the gyro orientation, and arm/disarm testing of the board - YOU are responsible - make sure your actions and your Copter is safe - remove the prop -remove the risk.
Always maiden on default PIDs' - If the copter is not almost perfect on default PID's then DO NOT go straight to altering the PID's! Most of the problems you will face as a noob will be caused by making wild assumptions or following myths from forums - fly on default PIDs first - balance your props - make sure your ESC are calibrated and synchronized.
Dont be fooled by forum claims of kirby flashed ESCs - this software will melt your ESCs and give short flights - there is a lot of bad info on forums

Safety in Australian Skies

Keep more than 30m from persons,choose an empty sports field for your first flights
Do not fly near pets, houses or cars
Never fly within 3nm of an airfield or above 400ft
Never install your props until after the Multicopter is fully tested and 100% correct without props. Engines can start suddenly and without warning IF YOU FAIL to understand how they work or skip any steps.
Set your Tx/Rx binding to low throttle 1/4 position so that if the link is lost the copter will descend slowly.
Always keep your Copter in line of sight for one pilot ops - FPV is only legal in AU with a buddy on a buddybox - 2 person FPV is 100% legal using the buddybox system below 400'. See CASA Part 101 Regs
RC Flying is a privilege - please enjoy it. Don't show off and don't get over confident
Home movies are fine, but in Australia professional paid photography or videos from an RC aircraft requires CASA Part 101 compliance, including exams and approved ops manuals and pilot competency tests by CASA official which will cost several thousand up front.
