Oh How Original Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Joby Gorillapod and heavy duty ball head, have to say, not a cheap set up for a small tripod, but feels so heavy duty and solid, the rubber is great and I'd have no worries about hanging my DSLR from anything with this. Should come in handy for RC stuff. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should come in handy for RC stuff. I've had one of these for a few years now. Cracking piece of kit. Considering its size, it is very solid Edited May 17, 2017 by monkeyboy_uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johninderby Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 One very soggy box left behind the gate all day but as it was paint no harm done and one cheap Hobbyking kit but handed directly over by courier so not soggy. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was useful the short time I used it! Luckily I remembered the SLR.... Pop back for it lol. I've left my tripod and camera behind before, although thankfully remembered before we set off in the car. It's quite easily done if you set it up and just start bashing, change battery, carry on and it quickly goes out of your mind that you're filming.

Aye, it should hopefully come in handy for stuff. Tried it wrapped round the bottom of my transmitter with the DSLR hanging off the side but it's too heavy, got cramp in my thumb. Need a way to mount it directly on the top or bottom, securely. Unfortunately, the tripod isn't going to work for that, but I have other uses for it too lol.

I've had nothing but good experiences with the 1256tg, and the high power draw isn't really an issue for me, but costs are. Of the PowerHD's I have the micro ones have been faultless, the LF20's fantastic, the single LW20 terrible in that the case cracked on it's first outing for no apparent reason. This was circa half the cost of the savox so well worth a punt - will prob replace the 1256tg in the truggy to get a fair comparison and see how it goes. I've got a couple higher end servo's that make the 1256tg look decidedly average, but cost twice the price new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You probably want an el-cheapo Go-Pro clone to go on your controller really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a Galaxy Note 4 coming though which apparently is very good for video, so that might be an option for some transmitter mounted shots.

Run more than 10 now and not had an issue, aside from one spline stripping, which was my own fault, no servo saver, full throttle and clipped a curb.
