Two things Thanks for replying and it will help other too hopefully :-) Safe and happy flying. On a side note my business recently had a theft of iMac computers in Essex (£7k worth). We had CCTV with good images of car and thieves, drugs dropped at scene but Police said they will not send an...

Never had any problems with my Mavic Pro 1. Recently I placed the Mavic on a 4 foot diameter metal garden table to take off from. I figured its profile and shape would bode well with terrain recognition on the landing. Did all the checks. As I took off to 5 feet, it flew starboard at an angle...

Hi all I have recently finished a 1hr 30m film chronicling the 3 successes at Wembley (FA Vase) in the 1970s for my local team Billericay Town FC - there are lots to assets find under the #VASE40 hashtag if you are interested. Anyhow - I used my Mavic Pro drone for an effective opening...

Cheers. I have noted the flickering problem with footage, and see the -2 sharpness posts - will try those settings. Seems like candy floss blurred shadows at minus sharpness, and flickering sharp images. Mmmm.

Hi! Thank you for allowing me to sign up. I am a creative, and have bought a Mavic Pro (my first UAV) for pleasure, but will monetise my footage, using it for work purposes. I already create video and am a photographer / illustrator / designer. I have read up as much as I can and it seems I...
