    Help in Sturgeon Bay?

    LOL. I'm always happy when I see someone else be boneheaded, so I don't feel alone. At least I can still take an image or two. Here's a pano, Sturgeon Bay sunrise

    Help in Sturgeon Bay?

    Ok, now I’m even more embarrassed, used to needing the multi lead clip for my phantom 4’s. Never charged in aircraft. Thanks!

    Help in Sturgeon Bay?

    Hey, fellow pilots in WI, I am wondering if there are any MP3 pilots near Sturgeon Bay? This is embarrassing. I am in the area for a few weeks with my drone, and I left a key piece of charging equipment home; the hub! Yup. I knew it was best to fly with bats at storage voltage, and I forgot to...

    I need constructive feedback. But, let's make it fun! - please roast my video. Be cruel.

    I agree with this comment. beautiful moody opening, but no transition to the next, more normal daylight scene.

    Are you allowed to fly in nature preserves?

    I wanted to do some pro bono work for a wildlife refuge in my neighborhood. I enjoy going there and wanted to thank them. When I went to speak to the Director, she said that she would rather that I did not because there were birds that used the refuge as a migration stop, and did not want to...

    auto discharge or hover to storage voltage?

    I have only flown my m3 a few times, until I had wrist surgery Dec 15. I thought I would fly be able to fly with son this last weekend, but weather was bad, so I am stuck with 3 fully charged batteries. Would you let auto discharge kick in to a storage voltage, or hover for a while with each...

    D-Log and iOS Screen

    Thank you, Dave Maine, for the clear explanation! Makes sense. I am mostly stills, and it bothered me how the tones shift when changing to d-log. I will work on this after I've healed from wrist surgery.

    I need more help with D-Log. Can you describe what kind of curve you are looking for in the histogram?

    Mavic 3 accessing built in memory

    Thank you for your help! I was plugging into the controller rather than the aircraft, so all is good. I did find the format command in the app under the tab for camera. I just didn't scroll down far enough. When you scroll down, you see under white balance 'storage location', and the format...

    Mavic 3 accessing built in memory

    Just received my M3, and have a nubie question for DJI Fly. I was in too big of a hurry to change the where the images shot were stored, so up I went, and did some trial raw and video clips. Brought it back down, and am unable to access them to download. Switched to the card as storage, did...

    Mavic 3 Wide Angle Lens

    Thank you for the link, skywalker. I would expect it to be an auxiliary lens, meaning it works with the current lens to alter the focal length. I usually avoid these, but in this case, it would be an inexpensive way to get ultra wide. I hope the image quality is acceptable, if not, back it...

    Kind of goes without saying but Ya don't crash it. LOL

    Thanks, but probably not as good as a lot of these guys. Just careful, I guess. My p4 pro has been my go to, have 2 of them but never needed a backup.

    Yeah, sorry. Spreading Wings 1000. A heavy lift octocopter, got it to use a sony a7r camera. Great images, but it was intimidating to fly. Still have the pieces.
