Thanks for all the tips and experiences so far. The reason i am asking is because I had a Mini 4 Pro fall out of the sky (yes literally) during a sudden rainstorm into the lake (I was only about 15ft from the shore). Luckily a friend dived in and grabbed it for me so I could use my care refresh.
Anyone want to list there drone crashes and why they happend. I am looking for help as a beginner pilot on not crashing / avoiding things like popup rain storms. (Also, How to avoid bird attacks?)
Yes, I did have a good view of the drone. Right before it reached land I hit the emergency brake to get my bearings and I stopped it for 2 seconds before I continued. A few seconds later it stoped (not because of me) and my father watched it spiral out of the sky into the water. Let me see if I...
So I was flying my Mini 4 Pro one day over a lake, getting some footage, and It was pretty cloudy, but nothing to indicate a storm. Suddenly rain came, and so I immediately started flying the drone back (I was maybe 1200 - 800ft out when it started). I was only 15ft from land when I got a motor...
Crashes in my full drone career
1. Backed a Mini 3 into a 50ft Tree, (survived with just grass stains)
2. Decided to test out the submersible features by taking my Mini 4 Pro for a swim in my local harbor (ended with a $250 flyaway claim)
3. Crashed the replacement Mini 4 Pro into a tree...
Thanks so much for the time you spent on this, this is the one I will use. Also would you mind giving a bit more insight on question 4 (do you believe it is right to ban DJI drones).
I am doing a project for school about why we shouldn’t immediately ban DJI drones and wanted to interview people affected as a part of the project. It would be great if some people could answer these interview questions, it would help me tons! Thanks so much!
1: How do you feel the ban would...
Thanks for the suggestions, I already ended up buying the set. Mainly because it was $50 off on amazon, bringing it to 70 dollars (only 15 more than the Dji pack) and it included 13 more types of ND filters.
I take a lot of photos and I want them mainly for motion blur. I also edit my photos using apple photos app, do you think I would only need a 3 or 4 pack for that?
I was wondering what people think about Neweer ND filters for the mini 4 pro, does anyone have good or bad experience with this brand? Are they high quality, and how do they compare to freewell? I am asking because the Neweer mega pack (which includes all that the freewell mega kit does) went...
