    Good Video editing apps on android?

    I'm very interested in this thread. 2 problems I don't see addressed. 1) .mp4 codec almost all these video editors do not recognize the DJI .mp4 without doing a file conversion first. This is time consuming annoyance. Are you not seeing this problem? How do you address it? 2) SPACE. I want to...

    Mavic water recovery system

    I'd prefer a quick buoy detachment with a low profile and almost no performance degradation. I don't want to pay $80, wait a month and wind up with your former salty dead drone if I can avoid it!

    Michigan pilots here

    Hazel Park, Mi I thought we were the midwest? :) I've owned cheaper drones, but this thing is amazing. I'll be covering the Gambler 500 coming to Michigan April 29th. It's a $500 beater car off-road race from Troy, Mi to Up North. I'm gonna intercept them a couple times. Parts of the track...
