You know Hallmark, Many people have made useful contributions to this thread but you on the other hand .................

I am quite tired of your Front seat Father "you kids better be quite back there" diatribe.

Contribute something positive please!

Well Thurmond you are definitely not one of the useful contributors are you? Does anyone know where the go f*%#k yourself icon is?

FYI: I will comment as I see fit, when I see fit and to whatever extent I see fit. If you don't like it why don't you read past them as I do with yours...?

Here's a Kleenex and a tampon, perhaps you will feel better once both have been used!

Bad form Gentlemen

Trolling
"Trolling is trying to get a rise out of someone. Forcing them to respond to you, either through wise-crackery, posting incorrect information, asking blatantly stupid questions, or other foolishness. However, trolling statements are never true or are ever meant to be construed as such. Nearly all trolled statements are meant to be funny to some people, so it does have some social/entertainment value.

"Trolling" isn't simply "harmful statements". Intentionally insulting/libelous statements are "flaming".

Just as bad as trolling is "Feeding the Trolls". This is when people say stuff that they know will prompt someone to respond with a trolled reply and/or replying to comments that are blatantly from a troll. This is especially true when a troll first makes his comment/reply, and (usually many) people respond, either trying to correct the troll, or express anger at the statement. At that point, the trolling was successful and has been fed. When encouraged by success and feeding, trolls often return."

The problem is that Hallmark here is talking from the perspective of someone who isn't building his own backpack, his is being sent built and ready to go from rcmodelreviews so his comments are not really valid for those of us who are building our own kit.

Some people have the ability to put themsleves in another mans shoes and see it from his perspective, Hallmark obviously does not, I've been trolled over by him myself.

The really annoying thing is that this is a two regulator circuit, no not a circuit that needs two regulators it is just two regluators on one board, it's not rocket science, it's not even jet science.

Another one who thinks his opinion is greater in worth than it actually is!

Look at the reason I am being sent the backpack and you actually undermine your own argument. I'd pay good money to hold this chat face-to-face

For all the Bruce basher's who are now directing your man-tanties at me read up:

I am building my own FPV platform and regardless of where or in what condition some of my equipment is coming, none of that negates the fact that many here - YOU INCLUDED rotorz - have been disrespectful towards Bruce in this forum. Now you seek to draw me into your sights, well I won't cop your crap and I have no time for keyboard warriors who probably don't know much of life away from mummy's back room or basement and your local corner shop's candy bar counter.

My objections here have been about the personal attacks on a man who is granting you the ability to COPY his work when he has time to complete the R&D then publish it. As I previously said you would bleat like wounded sheep if he published it untested and your platforms ended up in a heap 2kms from launch! However, you all seem to think that his days should revolve around getting you schematics and details that he has said will come (albeit outside of the times he had originally stated), if and when he can.

I understand he is busy with his personal life, which takes priority over the bloody backpack for a bunch of self indulgent supposed geniuses who seem too lazy (with a few exceptions like Ronald McD), to get up and try out a few things themselves! If you're such worthy little technicians, build the damned thing yourself and quit crying in here.

My issue with you and others who comment in public as you do is that you fail, neglect or refuse to consider that life goes on away from the computer and people have more than one aspect to their days than satisfying your desire for something that if you were so bloody talented, would already be built and flying around. How's that for putting one's self in another's shoes?

So if I have "trolled" you (whatever that means in your vernacular), then you deserved the attention you received and let me say that not asking Bruce by private message when he would have time to do his thing, which is what polite and civilised people would have done, but making your points here is completely asinine. You lot seem to think you can be disrespectful online and get away with it. You should feel really good that you're behind a keyboard and not in front of me because you'd be needing some help getting back home if you spoke to me like this in person!

So, if you have more to say man up, PM me and let's get together. Otherwise STFU and get on with waiting for the technical detail to be posted without carrying on like a damned child! If you lot spent half the time working out your problems instead of crying about them here you wouldn't have any problems to complain about!

I have contributed positively to this thread. I posted my amateur effort at some Eagle boards for a backpack. Not as sophisticated as Bruce's but still an effort to achieve results.
Playground bully is a life long trait apparently. Your abusive language and threats of "manly" violence are totally out of place and uncalled for. If I was a moderator you would have been warned and or gone after a few of such postings. Until you started posting several pages into this dialog everyone was playing nicely together. Quit kicking sand.

I am done!

Anyway ignoring all that tripe, does anybody else think it might be a bit unnecessary to use a charge pump to power the camera?

My feeling is it would be a lot simpler to just use a bigger 9v regulator if it is just a heat problem.

I don't really know much about charge pumps but I do know it would be a lot more complicated than a bigger regulator and maybe create more noise, maybe he is doing that way to save weight?

I'm using a 78 size 9v reg it doesn't seem to get unduly hot but I haven't run it for much more than 10 mins at any one time.

I don't much care what you think of my posts or my methodology. You know nothing of my lifelong anything and saying such things undermines your already feeble position. I never made any reference to violence, but you're obviously predisposed to fearing retribution for your big mouth.

It seems you can dish out the nastiness but cannot take it very well. I spent ten years in service of my country and they didn't teach me to cuddle your sort to better your ways, we just kept slapping until those needing it got the message!

I am not and never have been a bully, but I won't stand by while the likes of you and the other wannabe know-all heroes crap talk someone who is giving you the benefit of their expertise for free while you all have the audacity to carry on about the time it takes to refine the product. In my opinion that is bullying and I stood to stop it.

You started the personal attacks and it seems I am more prepared to commit on a level that obviously has you running for cover - as well you should be... That said I have only ever replied to your and others slurs - so your holier than thou attitude isn't getting any airtime with me.

If the Mods were to sanction me I can assure you your posts would be considered equally contemptible and you'd share any fate I did. So if you've said your last word good, don't Bruce bash and I'll stay nice and polite from here on out.

Mirrors reveal so much if we but look into them with a discerning eye! Truth is Truth even if no one believes it and a lie is a lie even if everyone believes it.
I will pray for you Hallmark!
Have a wonderful day.

I expect Bruce is using a switch mode regulator circuit to save wasting power as heat.
There is no reason why you shouldn't use a larger regulator and if required put a small heat sink on it, it's just that you are burning off the voltage difference as heat, thus shortening the time you can use the FPV setup between charges.
