I pushed the boat out and went for the Freewell 16 filter set. Close to £150, but I can't see I'll ever be in a position where I have the wrong filter at hand. All the reviews I've read on Freewell are very positive too. They are very easy to change too. Now all I need to find is a waterfall...

Chortle.

Hi all. In case any of you are still contemplating dipping your toes into the world of the MP4. I bought mine a month or so ago on very.co.uk. If you sign up for their buy-now-pay-later, you get 20% off your first purchase. I got the MP4 Fly More kit for 787.19 (inc. 3.95 postage), instead...

Hang on. North Pole, big white beard. That wasn't someone's present that "fell off the back of a sleigh" was it?

Let's hope the CAA in the UK is equally uninterested! I guess, until such a case arises though, we'll never really know. I'm assuming our average UK plod won't be carrying a calibrated set of scales with him/her/them anyway. So, maybe (unlikely I know) common sense may prevail, on their part.

Just out of interest, how strict is the 250g limit? If a stobe light was stuck on a mini 4 pro, that took it to a couple of grams over the 250g, would that be a life-in-prison type offence? Surely, even one of those skins you can get could take it just over 250g. If it is that strict, it's a...

Sounds very a-peeling.

Okay, this was actually taken on my phone - so if it shouldn't be here, feel free to shoot me. I do own an Air 1 though. I'm posting it because it is one of those once-in-a-lifetime shots with regard to lucky timing. I'd been in London for the day and was on a coach, on my way home. I...

However, unlike a Mini Pro 3 or 4, you can't legally drive a car over people - not crowds and not even individuals! Therefore, by that logic, a drone is far more dangerous than a car.

First attempt at a video. Filmed fully auto. Edited with iMovie, added some silly romantic filter! Hopefully with the ND filters and a bit of trial and error I can produce something a bit better soon.

Hi from Somerset in the UK, somewhere between Taunton and Glastonbury. Another one a bit green round the gills at present. Bought an Air a few weeks back as a birthday present to myself :) Only used for a few minutes so far. ND filters should be arriving any day. Now just need to find some time...

Hi and welcome from another newbie. Not far away either. Just up the road nr Taunton.

Thanks Lisa. I was certainly confused (even with my very limited knowledge) by the previous comment. The Mavic Air that I have, definitely has a fixed aperture (2.8 I think); I think the Pro may have some adjustment. I've also read and viewed many youtube videos, where the "experts" say that...

Why do you actually need this app if using Android? Wouldn't it be simple to just have a piece of paper with the required filters written down? Assuming what I see on youtube by experts is right, then one should always aim for ISO 100, fps 25 in the UK (maybe 30 in the US). Then it's just a...

@Pingman68 - sorry to sound dim, but what does stating it is an undocumented drone mean and how does that help? I'm off to Mexico in November and am also a little concerned, as I don't want it confiscated. I've also heard they may try and change some sort of VAT on the drone when you take it in.
