Found out that a camera lens hood is needed to remove propeller shadow! You will see a flicker in my latest video which is a very good example which can be fixed with a R200 lens hood

Don't think a lens hood will get rid of that. Propeller will still be in the field of view. As I understand, in harsh daylight, you need an ND filter. This will decrease the video shutter speed, which will blur out and make those blades disappear...

Lens hood will help with lens flare BTW.

I think this would be a better kit: https://www.ormsdirect.co.za/polar-pro-dji-phantom-3-filter-kit

@PSN - P4 is going great, love sports mode!

I am waiting for Orms to let me know when the extra battery is arriving.

Got a video created - Not the best editing and no music added. Bit of beach between Gordons Bay and Pringle Bay (Cant remember the name), Bit of beach at Kleinmond and Melkbos beach the evening. Just need to go to office to upload it.

I posted the other one, purely for the description of what I was trying to explain... Definitely not as a recommendation, as I have absolutely no experience with ND filters for drones.

Must upload some stuff.

Don't stand next to a cellphone tower lol, have 3 behind office and can't even calibrate without going around corner.

Here is just some random stuff, haven't gotten chance to go out and do some nice shots.

Hi Buddy, i think you may need to calibrate your gimbal because it leaning to the right.
Awesome footage

Poor GoPro.

Poor GoPro.

The whole modular design and steadicam vibe is quite cool from GoPro. I think it will still do well... but, I would probably go for the Mavic.
