    DJI Mavic 3 OEМ vs MAS props sound

    If there is any difference in the sound at all (I can’t hear a difference), it’s so slight that it doesn’t matter. If the difference can only be perceived with the assistance of some sort of device and not by the human ear alone, who cares? I bought the MAS props based on their reputation, and...

    Mavic 3 coordinated turns (fixed wing mode)

    I have found that applying roll during forward flight now behaves as expected (i.e. without yaw being automatically applied at the same time), but yaw still automatically applies roll during forward flight. I wonder if this is to make turning easier for less experienced pilots, but, as has been...

    My first video recording with Mavic 3 - Pacines Valley, CA

    I’m pretty happy with the LUTs from the Film Poets. Shooting with a shutter speed of 1/(twice the frame rate) should give you more smooth, cinematic footage (30 fps @ 1/60 shutter speed is a very common setup). https://www.thefilmpoets.com/edu/

    "Aircraft" semantics

    I know. I’m just saying that it could be more clear. A simple “A” and “D” with each value would be helpful.

    "Aircraft" semantics

    Agreed. And while they’re at it, they can better discern the difference between distance and altitude (two numbers, both in feet) of manned aircraft shown by AirSense.

    Mavic Pro propellers

    I’ve seen claims that MAS props are also slightly more efficient than OEMs and therefore provide slightly better battery life. I have no idea if that’s true, but, if so, I would imagine that the difference is probably negligible.

    When should prop icing become a concern?

    Dew point and temperature. If the dew point is below freezing (32 degrees F) and the temperature of the collecting surface (i.e. the props) is at or below freezing, ice will form on the surface.

    Got a call from FAA today...do I really need my Part 107?

    I think your history works against you in this case. If you were flying recreationally, took a photo or video with your drone, posted it your social media, and you later gave someone permission to publish your work for the first time, it’s easy to argue that the flight was originally intended as...
