thank you! what are the advantages when using filter?Small diameter. For video you need at least 52 mm. For photo preferably 58 mm.

CPL removes the reflected light from metal and wet surfaces. UV protective glass just from mechanical damage.thank you! what are the advantages when using filter?
FYI you should not move the quad after plugging in the battery - it is calibrating itself while it's singing that song. so you should always put it on a flat, level surface, plug it in, then wait for the beeps to finish. THEN you can move it.Gave the Git2 a proper trashing, i think the gyro is still sick (joking). It does a hell of a good job. My quad doesn't have balanced propellers, no PID tuning and after some crashes it lost a tip of a propeller, the Git2 still makes up for that and only under excessive judder it shakes the image a bit, but no jello. Sorry about the weather (fog). Hope you enjoy it, I have also included the crashes for the fun of it !
sure, but why? gitup includes a much better mount. i think it comes with all versions of their packaging, not just pro. i like it much better than the frame mount you linked to, and it already has a tripod hole in the mount. http://www.gitup.com/en/mounts/38-dashcam-frame-for-gitup.htmlHey guys, can i buy this item for my git2? Thanks if any1 can help me

normally i would say "very carefully" but in this case it was quite the opposite. too bad i didn't have a camera on it - could have been an interesting ride! of course at night, the video would probably be pretty boring.hehe how the hell did you get that quad in there Gibson

otherwise great video. that drop of water on the lens really shows just how hard the gyro is working to keep things stable!
i might try making a video like that - one camera on chest mount so you can see the controller/view, and another on the quad. i wonder how much of the shaking was because of ice forming on the propellers! looks neat in the fog/snow. do you have any lights on your quad? it helps a LOT once it gets more than a few meters away, so you can tell which way is forwards.
i also need to get a big battery like that so i can have longer flight times. with my 1500mah 3s batteries, i get about 5 minutes without the action camera, or 4 minutes with. not that the git2 is heavy, but git2+waterproof case+mount is about 300 grams... and when your entire quad (minus battery) only weighs like 400 grams (i haven't actually weighed it - only guessing), that's a lot!
i bought this kit from banggood preassembled (it's my first real quad - i don't count the H8 Mini I also got since that's basically a toy). i have 5040 props on motors labeled MT2204-2300KV. mine is also CC3D but i haven't connected it to the PC for calibration or any tweaks - it was ready to fly out of the box - just attach props and battery and go. no FPV gear, so i had to buy that separate. now that i've had a little practice flying line of sight, i want to try FPV so I may install the cam/vtx soon. I'll have to change up how they wired the LEDs so i can use one of the power switches for the LEDs, but that's no big deal, just a little solder.I have disabled the CC3D auto calibration at arming/startup. I've calibrated it onto a level flat surface, saved the settings and now i don't have to worry about that. I'm planing to add a few LED's some red / green for better visibility. I also like your golf ball landing gear and indeed the small V shaped ones are crap as mine rattle arround and it seems that regardles of how well i push them back, they find a way of getting loose. @Gibson99 what motors / propellers do you have on your quad, 5 minutes seems very little. I'm running heavy ate more than 700+ grams with the Git2 and waterproof case, but without that in this weather and conditions i would have surly broken it.

I also can suppose that. But I don't know how to check it - does it really have gyro sensor for stabilisation or just software stab.I think when you move the camera around in darkness with gyro on, the camera cant see anything so there in nothing to apply the gyro output to.
At least thats what i think is going on.
@gitup showed us some photos of the actual chip inside that detects movement to stabilize the video. and i can say from using my git2 that it definitely has stabilization. for example i was holding the camera in my hand as my family went past on snow skis and i walked towards them, but the video does not shake at all, even though i was shivering. in another example, when i crashed my quadcopter in the snow, it looked like the snow stuck to the lens (waterproof case) was moving when i picked up the quad because it "felt" the movement and tried to stabilize it. you can test that easily yourself - turn on gyro, start recording, put your finger on the corner of the lens (don't cover the whole lens, just a small part) then shake the camera. it will look like your finger is moving in the recording but you know it is not.I also can suppose that.

Of course it has a stabiliser and it works. But now it's interesting for me it it really gyro stab or just software stabilisation - cause I can stabilise also my Xiaomi video on my PC by using for example ProDrenalin.@gitup showed us some photos of the actual chip inside that detects movement to stabilize the video. and i can say from using my git2 that it definitely has stabilization. for example i was holding the camera in my hand as my family went past on snow skis and i walked towards them, but the video does not shake at all, even though i was shivering. in another example, when i crashed my quadcopter in the snow, it looked like the snow stuck to the lens (waterproof case) was moving when i picked up the quad because it "felt" the movement and tried to stabilize it. you can test that easily yourself - turn on gyro, start recording, put your finger on the corner of the lens (don't cover the whole lens, just a small part) then shake the camera. it will look like your finger is moving in the recording but you know it is not.
one other factor though - if you're recording in 2160p there's not much sensor left to do stabilization, so it won't be as good as 1080p or lower resolutions.
