    M4P Geo Fence

    Did updating your Fly Safe database fix the problem? As you probably know, DJI stopped enforcing No Fly Zones in the US several months ago, and the expected behavior is that you can fly anywhere, although you may need to acknowledge a warning first. I have a lot of experience with this: I have...

    Introducing MavenRoute – A New Web Mission Planner for DJI Drones

    My pleasure. I've run several startups, and was always glad to get input from customers that helped me to understand their perspective, especially if it required me to shift mine. That will be awesome. Looking forward to that. Is there a place I can sign up to be notified of that? Or perhaps be...

    Introducing MavenRoute – A New Web Mission Planner for DJI Drones

    Looks cool, and I'd love to try/use it. Unfortunately it is not compatible with the drones I would like to use with it (ideally Mavic 4 Pro, but even working with my backup Mavic 3 Pro or Inspire 2 would be nice). Also, since you asked for feedback, here's a bit of hopefully constructive...

    frustrated plus

    Rabbit hole aside, will connecting the drone to Assistant 2 really help here? The OP says "my drone logged out I can't log in on the controler screen". Isn't the login state associated with the runtime environment of the controller software, rather than the drone itself? If so, I don't see how...

    Another moire question...

    From YI is possible that the banding visible in your screen capture is a display artifact caused by the way the image file is being rendered by your display software, rather than a problem within the image file. To check, try zooming in and out while viewing the file. If the bands shift around...

    Customs problems resolved?

    Thanks. I was not trying to trick dji.com into shipping me a product in the US. I was comparing how product availability on dji.com differs if I access it from a US IP Address vs one from Canada or the UK, to gain some insight into DJI's current policies.

    Customs problems resolved?

    msinger: I have been buying DJI drones from the store at dji.com for over a decade, accessing it using a US IP address and shipping address; everything from Inspires (1 and 2) to Airs, to Mavics. I used to be able to do this even when the products were not yet in the US. Those products have...

    Customs problems resolved?

    I just accessed the store at dji.com from my home in the US, and all drones are listed as Out of Stock. I then used my VPN to access the dji.com store through other countries like the UK and Canada, and everything is In Stock and estimated to ship in a day. That 's one way to resolve the US...

    Mandated National Security Risk Assessment of DJI drones

    No need to wait until Dec 31 to feel the effect of misguided policies on DJI product sales in the US. Witness Mavic 4 Pro, and even Mini 4 Pro challenges. It's a mess already. Regarding "head in sand" comments above: Maybe true for some people. But failing to post about something here is not...

    Help with image quality- bad moire on roofs etc

    Pattern artifacts like those shown in the original post's screen captured can be caused (or made worse) by the act of rendering the image on a computer screen at a specific size. Zooming the view in or out on screen often changes the nature of the artifacts, making them stronger, weaker, or even...

    Resolution Confusion!

    Thanks for your kind words. I've received a great deal of help from the participants on this forum (and the related Inspirepilots, where I've spent more time). I try to pay it back whenever I can.

    Resolution Confusion!

    There's lots of info related to this question in this DJI post: Drone Photo or Video Files Export Guide But you may be overthinking this, and I say that as a retired computer scientist with a specialty in image processing and thorough understanding of video encoding, down to the bits, so I am...

    Davinci Resolve Frame rate woes

    Yes, that's the basic problem, but there is another "solution", which is to have Resolve interpret the 29.97 fps clip(s) as if they were 25 fps clips. If you do that then each frame of the 29.97 fps source clip will play for 1/25th of a second in the 25fps timeline. This will cause the 29.97 fps...

    DJI Mini 3 Pro | Uncontrolled sinking leads to ditch into ocean despite countermeasures

    Regarding rushing to get the great shot: I recall listening to a podcast interview with a commercial drone pilot who shot for the Discovery Chanel and National Geographic. I can't recall his name. But I do recall him saying (effectively): "we always bring multiple drones into the field, and if...

    Where is the best outlet to print panos?

    I can recommend Bay Photo. I use them to fulfill customer print orders, which are usually corporate office installations, done as Acrylic Prints (1/4" thick with DiBond backing) or MetalPrints. I've gotten pano aspect ratios (2:1, 3:1) and standard aspect ratios (3:2, 1x1, etc) at sizes up to...
