First run with Mavic Pro

[Cody]

I've been making running videos with my drones for fun and to share on social media. I started with a 3DR Solo which ended up flying itself into a lake, then a Phantom 3 + Autopilot, now my Mavic arrived yesterday and I got to briefly try it out. Initial impression: absolutely love it, so stoked! There was giddy laughing out on the trail as I pulled it out of my small hydration pack rather than my Phantom's bulky foam backpack.

While I wait for Autopilot support and since I don't have an iPad Mini mounting solution yet (Autopilot iOS only and I have an Android phone), I just tried out ActiveTrack for my first flight. It doesn't have the same effect as my Autopilot waypoint flights, but still it works well and is very cool.. it will be a nice feature to have when I want to make a quick video.

Here's a playlist of all my videos
