    a safer way to catch your Mavic

    In anything but a perfect windless day-this would be extremely dangerous with a Mavic Pro. Imagine trying to do this standing on a 45° scree slope on the side of a mountain in the Highlands in 20mph winds? Safest hand catch with the Mavic Pro by far is to put your arm straight up above your...

    Okay, you might just might want to be careful next time. I work there, am on the BBC Approved Drone Operators List and have the CAA Permit to fly commercially. Recheck the legislation on flying Drones in 'Congested Areas' on the CAA website, you've breached several basic Rules and you...

    So many pilots hate the mavic af

    I too, on day 1, assigned C2 to CENTRE AUTOFOCUS so I can quickly get Focus. And set C1 set to CAMERA DOWN so I can quickly check what's beneath me whilst Landing or Descending at a distance away from me where it's hard to see the exact terrain below the craft.

    AFC is AUTO FOCUS CONTINUOUS so if left enabled and you are in AF mode, the camera will continuously confirm AF on the area that you've initially tapped in the frame for AUTOFOCUS.

    Use the PEAK THRESHOLD option in the General Settings Menu set to HIGH so that you have RED FOCUS PEAKING edging around whatever in the frame is in perfect Focus, it's an added backup to getting sharp Focus.

    I know Ricc from Marionville Models has one. I ordered on the 28th Sept, I've tried to be patient and understanding but now it's not funny and I'm just getting more p***ed off every day. I've just got back from an overseas business trip that I wanted to take the Mavic along with. Sent from my...
