The initial filming of the driving range's light post was done in C flight mode to get a smooth flight circle around the light in the dark. Looks pretty cool.

I could not use the Mavic 3's camera zoom in night mode when filming the golf balls, so I zoomed in post-production on the golf balls, later in the footage. Night mode does not allow camera zoom/ explorer mode. I think?

The filming was done with 2 LED EDC LIGHTS attached to both sides of the drone with 10lb test Velcro for a total of about 5000 lumens and 11oz of added weight.

Flight Lasted about 20 minutes. Still had 50% battery when returned home. I forgot the distance the drone flew , sorry.

I flew relatively slowly to reduce the heat stress on the battery and motors.

I like the filming of the Driving Range Flood Light the most.

Thanks for watching

Don
