    Gimbal: Black box or white box

    I've noticed that some gimbals come in prominently white boxes, while others are in mostly black boxes. Does this packaging indicate any differences in the gimbals?

    I hate to kick a dead drone but my video is killing me!

    Let me start be telling all the things I have done, I believe I have a 1st batch solo but I'm not sure. I've had it for almost a year, but I had to wait for the gimbal for what seemed like forever. Ok here it goes... I have vibration and sometimes some minor jello issues. I have set my GP4 black...

    ProDad Mercalli V4

    For those of you wondering, I put a few drone bits in the review. It does a great job with reasonably smooth footage. I'm not one to run stabilization on everything as some do, but when you need it, you need it. Review: proDAD Mercalli V4 Stabilizr Plug-in - Streaming Media Producer curious...
