pravesh you can also get Fresnel lens at a good stationery shop. Ask them for the sheet magnifier. The common ones are 3x and costed me Rs. 200. I still have to make the box though :D

i think u got carried away with the posts, hehe . thank you for the info.
my box was a simple pressure cooker box in which i managed/DIY to fit my head. lens from VC Sir.
the monitors clarity with the 2-3x lens is better than googles image but i use googles cause its not heavy like these, the idea is to keep sunlight out or u will not get the immersive feeling and also curve the lens while installing in box so that the final image is rectangle.

hey dharmik what's the advantage of flashing the kk2 with 1.6++?
and is it possible to flash the red brick 30a esc with simonk?
thanks

Yes red brick 30a esc can be flashed with simonk, altho they are not very simon k friendly,
Issues have been reported while flashing and after flashing.
A simple google search can give you all the necessary info.

Hi Dharmik;

This frame is very nice! Do you have a personal website so we can see more projects from you?

Cheers!

Its a nice LED work. i suggest to get a green laser pointer pen, hook it on your quad vertically, in center, pointing downward and see the magic. it will give an illusion that a stick is holding the quad.

Fly high if you have good set of batteries.....!

yes, illusion and blindness. people will look into it, hold it upwards towards the sky keeping the laser beam away from eyes, been there done that.

This time we decided to visit my friend Viral's village. It's really wonderful place having river just behind his house. We hired a boat and went to the beautiful location. We spotted croc as well enjoying sunbath, but as soon as we reached that site it ran into the water, we missed oppertunity to grab it in the video but we found many good shots. The jello was reduced to the great level. I found the secret to get rid of it. I will post on my blog.

I would like to thank Viral, Satish(bodyguard), Vishal and all other buddies for this wonderful footage. Have plan to shoot more over here.

Hi all, i have been flying my scratch built(self design frame) quad from past few months. I got some really nice footage from this quad and now decided to give it some improvements especially for the frame. My current frame made of plastic exam board sheet which did it job well but it's not sturdy however i don't see any difference during flight but when i hook camera it gives me some vibes and jello effects in my video. So i requested Satya bro(quadkopters.com) to cut frame for me from my cad files. I received my frame yesterday and i was surprised to see how well it was crafted. The material is G10 black 1.5mm thick glassfibre sheet very stiff and sturdy. I see very neat and clean work. I would like to thank Satya bro to help multirotor lovers in real mean. I am sure many people will soon come with their self designed frames. I am now designing one more frame  but till now i would like to show some snap of my XtremeX frame got from QK.

Is the 'G10 black glassfibre sheet' same as acrylic sheet?

Dharmik

Yep Satya bro gave me some options to choose from like indian glassfibre, chinese G10 black glassfibre and carbon fibre in 1mm, 1.5mm & 2mm thickness.

Acrylic sheets are made using some plastic. but G10 or Glass Fiber sheets are made using sheets made up of Glass Fiber.
