Perhaps, the best way to show ‘work’, lab work or work in progress; in most cases, the purpose is to highlight the struggle to find a solution, the test effort and the learning that takes place when fixing stuff. Or another way to share various phases of the problem-solving process – hypothesize: test, learn and apply.

DJI Phantom 4 Fix

Gimbal Issues

Gimbal Issues Resolved

Gimbal Motor Replaced, DJI Fix in for now

Lab Work – DJI Fix

Back To The Field FIXED. After 25+ days 

I received some good news today, and even better news is that I got my DJI Phantom 4 ProV2 back from the repair shop. After waiting for roughly 30 days, it’s finally time to fly! The shipping and return process was a hassle, but I leave that for another post. Today, I finally received the PH4 in the mail, so it’s time to fly. I now have the package in my possession and am working on unboxing the drone as the excitement builds. Let’s see if the drone gimbal is ready for flight.

Gimbal Issue Resolution

Does the drone fix meet your expectations? This is the follow up article on the DJI Gimbal Issues. Sounds like the gimbal assembly was replaced, not sure about the camera or if the assembly is self contained, one unit; meaning the camera, gimbal and housing are all considered one replaceable unit. How long would it take to get the drone fixed? ~30 days. ReviewDJI P4ProV2 specs, make sure its your drone and in working condition.

At the airfield we pushed the drone hard, making sure the motors were good to go, a number of gimbal checks, gimbal, motors and lens filter changes. We can wrap up with a positive day at the airfield, nothing of significance to report. Just photos and videos to clean up, and clean out.

Update to come, will include video of the airfield, highlight different maneuvers and views. Or just check the above post…

Now that we have your attention, let’s delve into the DJI Phantom 4, gimbal issues, flight testing at the airfield, video and photography capabilities, and more. The same for our other drones, learn-to-fly drones, racing drones as well as maintenance and tips and hacks to ensure these drones stay airborne.

Workshop Activities, On The Bench

Lab Work – Lego Projects

Repost – On The Bench with the Lego Tablet Base

Re-posting or the “Other Lego ‘Side’ Projects”, similar to the Gimbal repost (had to repurpose some content, goal was to better utilize material posted in various places around the web). So, I’ll start with the Legos®… Gotta love Lego® Other Lego ‘Side’ Projects.

  • Situation – Think fast tablet housing needed. We need a handsfree, desktop friendly table housing.
  • Challenge – Build a tablet housing (landscape orientation only) to house an iPad. Regardless of what the model or make of the iPad, we had an iPad, make something that will work in 5 minutes.
  • Accessible materials – Legos®, toothpicks, pipe cleaners, various
  • Go!

In short, we were  a quick solution with accessible materials that would allow for various solutions, an iterative build process, and be tabletop/desktop friendly. Another Lego ‘Side’ Projects we worked on was creating a new iPad/iPad case that was purchased separately did not come with a handy, integrated stand. This will a future piece of content. We may consider reviewing a few cases that have integrated stands, such as the Brenthaven.

Moving On

Moving forward, the case we purchased did not have any kind of stand included or attached.  It is a fact that buyers often regret not buying a tablet case with a stand. Before we move to close this article, here are some additional lego specific lab work and videos shared online. Learn about Lego train depot, Lego Tablet base and mini pc board housing.

In conclusion, we had several bins of Legos lying around the workshop and with a little creativity, we were able to create a fully functioning tablet stand/base. This was our first edition, and while there were second and third iterations that were abandoned due to instability and the number of Lego bricks used, the fourth iteration is currently in progress. We plant to reduce the number of bricks used and adjust the screen angle to accommodate various viewers and users. Additionally, the Lego Housing we are featuring needs to allow for both portrait and landscape viewing, as well as integration with charging cords.

DJI Blunders, Days Wasted Away

Lab Work – DJI Issues

Diagnosis: bleak… The DJI camera gimbal is inoperable, with the 45° gimbal tilt consistently shifting to the right of center a known issue straight from the factory…

DJI Gimbal: Alignment issues are  present from the start. The gimbal is off-centered, indicating potential trouble with the camera and motor. This is a repost from Twitter prior to X, where I wanted to share a message that detailed a 24+ day duration from workshop-to-DJI process and back.

Repack For Repair - DJI PH4

Repack Repair

Next, please keep in mind that ‘repair days’ are counted by the number of days the device is in repair.  ‘days in repair’. Additionally, it is important to note down time includes DJI facility time – pre, post shipment and travel time. Whether it is in the US (possibly CA) or abroad (** the total # of repair days do not include ‘in transit’ days… times are not presented online in the DJI UI – status tracker **). Just be aware, times aren’t always accurate. If you prepare for this inaccuracy, or system latency, you’ll be better off with some of the repair ambiguity. This information may come as a disappointment, but it is good to be aware of it now. From a customer’s perspective, this experience was a nightmare.

Just to clarify, ‘Hey, we don’t count the time it takes for the device to travel to and from the customer and DJI, we apologize for any confusion.  It is safe to assume that most of us, myself included, do not have a spare Phantom 4 ProV2 just sitting around. Perhaps the issue is related to a defective gimbal or defective gimbal motor(S). In this case, a brand new drone down for repair, back in the shop for a gimbal repair. Let’s bring this nightmare to a close and conclude the DJI Gimbal matter, as I would prefer not to encounter any issues straight from the factory. That said, let’s cut to the chase, here is a quick peek at the DJI Fix article some 30 days later.

Other Robot and Drone Repairs

Although this drone is under warranty or we may be ‘under-the-hood’ trying to fix this problem ourselves. That said, learn more about drone and robot repair? Read our series on the Maytronic Dolphin Down, in need of repair, under repair and Dolphin On. Excited to have the Dolphin robot back to work in the water doing work. Down time is money flying out the window, metaphorically speaking. More importantly, reducing your Return-On-Investment (ROI) – investment money to purchase a robot to do said work. Return higher than manual labor to keep the pool clean. I’d say this has huge potential for those pool owners looking for a little more in-the-pool time versus pool care and maintenance time. How about Apple repairs,  M1 Chip repair, or MBP Batter Swap

Next, the EMAX Tinyhawk 2, FPV kit is a great choice for hobbyists or first-time pilot. The kit includes a drone, First-Person Video (FPV) goggles, blades, batteries, chargers, remote and a quick start guide. Charge up your batteries and take flight! I currently have four of these kits in rotation. This was the first EMAX kit on the ‘buy list’, and I highly recommend it. The TinyHawk series of drones is perfect for indoor flight, novice pilots and learning to fly through FPV (first- person view). Two thumbs up.

Finally, you can find the latest EMAX TinyHawk drone kit, specs, and build config here.  See Flight Controller updates and crash video and repair find more. These kits are considered RTF or ready-to-fly out of package, with little to no configuration required to fly. Additionally, the current iteration is priced at ($289), but pricing may fluctuate.

Drone Shots, PH4ProV2 Drone Shots, New Drone, new gear, ‘ENGAGE’ (Cap. Jean-Luc Picard)…

The reference is to engage or go, as stated by the captain of the ship in this case, the pilot in command. It’s okay if you’ve skipped Star Trek, or don’t understand the reference. No time lost per se.

I was flying a DJI Phantom 4ProV2, and wanted to share a few shots of the airfield. The club airfield (Venice Flyers) is located in Venice, Florida. I’ve added the PH4Pro Downloads and firmware links for archival purposes and in case of an emergency. Once again, that’s the Venice Flyers Airfield in Venice, Florida. Check out the club if you’re interested in the hobby of flying RC or quadcopter (drones).

For the purpose of the pictures, the goal was to put the drone through it’s paces, learning our flight area, boundaries and line of sight high’s and low’s… Here we had a chance to capture a few snaps of the airfield parking, airfield, flying space and more. Ideally, I want to share drone specs, photo and video quality and limitations. The PH4 Pro has a high quality video camera, can produce wonderful inflight and still shots, come-to shots, fast paced fly-to and follow shots. In my opinion, it’s one of the easiest to fly, learn and best video capture frames/speed sub $4K. The drone model and upgrades are a few years old now, with great video and photo quality. Enjoy PH4ProV2 Drone Shots.

RG Way Painting Contractor

Handyman and Construction Service

Borg2Borg A Bootstrap Framework

Contractor

Lab Work – Painting Contractor Web Work

Bootstrap CMS Website, for CT base RG Way Painting Contractor.

Customer Request and Focus on Family

First, let’s start with client preferences and requests for the website – ideally, an optimized, easy-to-use, user-friendly, photogenic, mobile-first design. The goal is to provide customers with an online experience that mirrors the quality of service they receive in person. Personal care and customer immersion are two key takeaways and factors to include in the design.

It’s worth noting the business was a father and son operation, that covered the Southern Shore of Connecticut, Hartford, New York and Pennsylvania. It was a small two-man operation focused on providing residential and commercial expertise and care. The main focus was on customer service experience, with the aim of making potential new customers and returning customers feel valued.

The client wanted his customers to see the care and experience the craftsmanship and level of service for themselves. The goal was to help customers envision themselves in their new or renovated spaces upon completion. This approach helped maintain loyal customers and emphasized long-term customer relationships, friendships, and partnerships. Additionally, sharing customer feedback and recommendations based on recent work completed added a personal touch to the business.

Residential and Commercial Clients

Secondly, the point here was to highlight professional level/portfolio level work both indoors and outdoors including residential and commercial spaces. RG Way Painting Contractor offers painting services, general contractor services as well as handyman services. All services are of extremely good workmanship and are local to the Southern Connecticut market. The most important aspect of this work example was a quick portfolio site for clients to experience the  RG Way experience. This includes sharing more about the planning-to-construction process, including clean up and payment. The goal is to provide ‘white-glove’ concierge level services, finding the right solution for your great investments

Communication and updates were also included in the scope for RG Way Painting Contractor. Customer feedback, recommendations and advocacy are a must, has this client had over 25 years experience and loyal customers willing to share their appreciation of completed work. It is always great to see such great services, professionalism and care for customer needs.

OHPASCO

Lab Work – Web Work

Web studies include three examples, OHPASCO, Clapboard Video and Talented Yound. Find each example below, others not listed below Island House Tap and Casa Masa. 

First, starting with OHPASCO. A local small accounting business, based in Shaker Heights, Ohio. The client was looking to establish a marketing presence online targeting family, friends and tertiary contacts. The main goal was simple, expand Midwest and MidAtlantic online presence. Specifically in the Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York. 

Furthermore, while there was an increasing need for dedicated resources, the popularity of shared hosting, cost and cloud based professional accounting services, the focus shifted towards implementing a marketing website to provide information and gather contacts, along with a practical hosting solution.

This work was a foundational study on mobile-first or device-agnostic design. A focus was placed on adding Bootstrap-lite features implemented in a  WordPress CMS environment. ‘Business on a page’ (infinite scroll) or a CMS to serve up marketing content. The goal was to provide monthly updates and a home for social media to drive traffic and encourage visitors to call or schedule an appointment to learn more.

Clapboard Video
Clapboard Video - Wedding Videography

Continuing on with the web studies, we have Clapboard Video, a local small business that specializes in digital wedding video and photography services. They offer full coverage of pre and post-wedding celebrations.

Talented Young
Talented Young

Next, we are excited to highlight Talented Young, a local startup that aims to showcase design portfolios in a Facebook-wall like format. They use cards to display individuals’ skills, talents and contact preferences, creating a virtual portfolio for creatives, architects and more. That’s Talented Young in a nutshell.

Our main focus has been on improving the designer experience, exploring possible communication channels, identifying favorites, and presenting internal offers. The design was created as a study for a large project, an academic proposal, or an online student portfolio offered by a franchisee (school) or private institution.

Also, the owner had great international exposure and was friendly and open to an iterative design and release strategy. Lastly, an early adoption of an agile and/or scrum based development and creative plans and holistic methodology, allowing build teams and design teams to focus on practical and pragmatic use of the system while developing the most important, shippable deliverables.

First, the highly anticipated Continental Indoor Lacrosse League virtual presence exceeded expectations with it’s online league website. The website was created to compete with other CMS (see our other CMS examples) or CMS like products like Sports Engine and Team Unify (now a subsidiary of Sports Engine).

Next, the site provides live action play, game clips, in-game video, and league marketing for ownership/franchisees, media and league updates. The board aimed to deliver real-time content, (location based) information, real-time stats to attract fans to the Continental Indoor Lacrosse League. 

Secondly, The website also served as an archive, offering historical games, content, updates, and more for past events. This marked an important evolutionary step for the governing body and the organization as a leadership group. Introducing new franchise opportunities, teams, communication stability among league resources, management team, leadership, and inter-league play. The website was the primary source for all games, web broadcasts, and the intercontinental governing body for the league. It provided real-time player information for players, referees, and fans in both the US and Canada.

Grab Tickets, Come See The Show – NYC’s Own Douglas And The Goodharts

First, following the release of their latest EP, Douglas And The Goodharts (DGH Soul) were seeking to implement a single-source design approach. DGH 2014 – Douglas And The Goodharts are “Delightfully Funky, Surprisingly Soulful” band. Regularly playing the Rockwood Music Hall – 196 Allen St. NYC. Music, videos, shorts and more can be found online via the web, Facebook, YouTube and more.

A new website enables the group to break free from the constraints of ‘social fencing’, and share dynamic content across all their social media platforms. Similarly, for band video content and print materials. This approach is what we call the ‘hub and spoke’ model, where a central hub, like the hub of a bicycle wheel, connects with various social platforms. Such as Facebook, Youtube, Soundcloud – online music storage and ticket sales. Ultimately, this allows the band to do more with less – less effort to distribute band materials and messages through the marketing and communication channel.

This omni channel offering would showcase in-show media, tour dates. Same for live show mix-media content, new music releases, music archive and more. Find more music local band support and design, visit us here.

Staying Power

A brand with staying power, is one that has a compelling story to tell, a narrative that others share about people convey about your product(s) and/or services.

When building a new business, seeking creative solutions, updates to optimize marketing dollars, create brand staying power and more, it’s important to view solutions, products, or services through a lens that effectively provides a glimpse of what’s to come. Branding and marketing go hand in hand.

We search for attributes and subtle cues that highlight ‘workmanship’, ‘service level agreements’ and the transition from niche to mass consumption. Our goal is to convey how a brand can resonate with a group of people, customers, or clients. We seek out similarities and creative solutions that meet the demands of a comparative and competitive market, finding ways to describe the essence of a future you  or product.  a brand might be to a group people, customers or clients. We look for similarities, again, creative solutions that satisfy the  comparative and competitive system, looking for areas to describe a forthcoming ‘you’ or ‘product’ (insert brand name here). Regardless of the individuality of the brand, the design should reflect both the brand itself and image that your clients and customers associate with it.
