    2 Zoom Just thought I'd try

    I have one but never get results like that. You have a good eye for the subject matter and the camera did its job.

    Mavic 2 Zoom - Horizon issue

    I am glad you mentioned this. My horizon on the M2 zoom has a curved horizon and when I tried to research this aspect on the forum there was little addressing it. I spite of me wearing a tin foil hat I still believe the earth is flat!

    Sun reflected clouds

    Storm clouds nearly looked angry and like lava as they approached this evening. The tiny moon hung above them for a while until they covered it from sight.

    Ship spotting. Please comment

    That was terrific. I usually don't watch videos lasting five minutes much, but yours was a great exception! Your manual flying ability sure fooled a bunch of us... some thought it was one of the intelligent flight modes.

    Inconsistent Firmware Found Message?

    I received the same message earlier this morning; I had already had the controller and bird connected just a few minutes before and all was fine. So I turned them off ... rebooted and everything was fine and dandy—no more inconsistent firmware message! Go figure.

    Almost a tornado

    It is amazing at how stable the drone is... would have thought it would be flung out the side door considering at how close you were able to fly it.

    Saw your post and thought I would reach out to you to say "hello"! It has been a long time since I left Yuneec and you were still flying them. When I went to DJI I have been so much more pleased and never have had a single problem with my Mavic Pro or Mavic 2 Zoom. I sure could not say the...

    Magnetic interference error message

    I am the same way. I purchased it in Florida and brought it home several months later to another state 1000 miles away; it has never had an IMU calibration nor a second compass calibration since initial setup... so it is rather weird that some have to redo the compass if it is moved over 50 miles.

    Matt Paul pres. Aerial Videography @ The Sunshine Skyway Bridge - Part 1 & 2

    I don’t have enough knowledge to comment on the artistic coloring and rendition of your footage but I sure liked it. Whenever I can find an excuse to drive over that bridge asopposed to the more direct route of I-75, I take it!

    FLORIDA DRONE SUPPLY PILOT NETWORK

    Most of their pilots fly Phantom Pros or the Mavic 2 Pro. The resolution has to be sufficiently good enough to show the fine detail of the cell tower superstructure. The M2Z will not suffice. A few pilots I have seen with Inspire 1 or 2’s.

    FLORIDA DRONE SUPPLY PILOT NETWORK

    I am very familiar with them. As I winter in SW Florida I often visit their store in Fort Myers. Over the past three winters I have seen many students attending class there for the cell tower inspection work. And not just students — pilots who have nearby jobs in other cities who come in after...

    GPC Attachment Lanyard

    With that kind of bicep test the broken metal clasp that AlanB experienced hopefully may have been an aberration! I have enjoyed the overall build quality of GPC cases; a manufacturer can be great but they can be sidelined by a poor supplier of something like the clasp. Perhaps you may wish...

    GPC Attachment Lanyard

    I have one and thanks for the warning. I may only use it as a teather for an accidental drop and not as an instrument for dangling the SC from my neck while using my hands for tasks.

    Unlocking license in GEO zone

    Thanks to all your help and patience CNYdronepilot I am now fixed up. While I missed some of the photography I was hoping to capture with the unlocked license, I will be able to accomplish the procedure correctly in the future. For the explanation...I was using the first letter of the flight...
