Thanks derlisz ! Never heard of this neither (i've always been pinching ). I'll try it out on my flight tomorrow Edit : I also tried to reduce the yaw, I guess I just need more practice.

Hey guys, Thanks for the constructive comments, Floyd : I graded most of the footage with the tools in première (there's a full heading section) and tried to keep the same (adjusted ) settings for each sequence. When I couldn't get where I wanted (or if it's too noisy) I used after effects...

Thanks for your answers guys ! Jeff, regarding France this website is made by the state to give you an idea of the athorised areas : Géoportail It's kind of a pain since there's no tolerance in flying over any building. And it's 150m height max (click on the map, it will tell you the ceiling in...

Hey everyone ! I'm a long time lurker and have posted on a few threads (including one prepping this trip about filming in the cold, unfortunately I didn't manage to shoot there). Anyways, I just finished my first drone edit and thought you guys might like it : >it's here< any comment to...

Sound interesting, would love to see that PDF.

Thank's msinger ! Those links are pretty interesting indeed. So I guess I should expect all those comments to apply to the mavic ? My main concern is to know if the Mavic in flight will drain enough power to keep the battery warm, that's the only thing I haven't confirmed yet (but it seems to...

Is that the new law that is going to be applied next year ? I thought the 500ft was the max in the cleared areas (based of the 2015 law), I might need to do more homework before take off. I'm coming to France soon but haven't flewn there yet, the Géoportail link is pretty interesting and...

Hey guys, Thanks you all for your answer, this forum is really great. DePilot : for now I've been researching on internet and don't have a gem of a spot. Elysean park gives you a WONDERFUL view of LA and the LA Mountains (up north) are a great place to be alone, legal and with plenty of space...

Hey, I'm a french guy in CA and I've been digging the french laws since I'm going home soon. In France you have a 500M ceiling and it's prohibited in any urban area. You have a map of the whole country with the ceilings etc made by a state organism. As long as you stick to the rules it's ok...

Uncased lithium ? Wouldn't that be a hasard in case of crash ?

Thanks guys ! Using a few cheap drones is good way to be comfy with mode 2 as well imo Good luck for you, Louisiana is on my list of the places I want to visit, especially as a french guy haha

Is that a new limit ? I saw video of people going way higher with it. (But never tried to, or want, or will..)

Hay un pedazo de plastico que tiene el guimbal detrás de la cámara , lo quitaste antes de cada vuelo ?

Thanks msinger ! So you haven't used another kind of drone to train in small spaces and maneuvering ? I'm not far from elisean park, it's an awesome place to train

Hi everyone, I'm Pilou a french guy living in LA, I'm a proud owner of a Mavic since a few weeks and have been lurking this forum even before. You guys already answered A LOT of questions so thanks everyone ! I decided to learn flying drone in 2 different ways : - the usual recommended way...
