I think I'm going to just fly at a lower altitude. Thanks for the responses.

I'm flying on a lake called Mitchell Lake, it's connected to a bigger lake called Big Lake. There's two seaplanes on the other lake that occasionally land and take off, sometimes on Mitchell Lake but most commonly on Big Lake. I understand I'm supposed to give way to manned aircraft and normally...

Hi, I know this is after the fact but, I would just like to issue a little warning to you if you're flying in Northern Virginia within a 30 mile radius of Washington, even outside of the no-fly-zone which has a radius of 15 miles starting from the middle of the attached image, there's an...

To add on to this. This is very true and messed with me when I was trying to get a few shots of a fisherman standing in the Elbe river in Decin, Czech Republic, I would pay attention to the map provided and also would check your location with the camera switched to the straight down position.

Like Zocalo said, start with shorter flights over the water to build your confidence, this has really helped me. I used to be deathly afraid of flying over water with my M2P until I did a few shorter flights over the water and now I have absolutely no problems with flying over lakes, rivers, or...

I have the fly more kit, so I just use the carrying bag that comes with that. It carries everything, I have 4 batteries so I carry one on the outside in a little bag where it won't get water on it or anything.

I'm not sure about viewing the videos that were on the SD card, I've always just looked at the cached videos as a preview. Every video that I took before I updated the drone opens, and plays properly on my laptop. All of the videos are MP4 files, including the newer ones which don't open.

Question, what all are you carrying besides the drone? How many batteries, etc?

@Meta4 My DJI app on my phone crashes when I try to access footage from the SD card on it. I shouldn't have problems with hardware, I'm on vacation so I'm using my laptop but it's a powerful gaming laptop. Sorry for the lack of knowledge here, I usually just fly the drones and usually the...

@brett8883 @Meta4 I can't open the videos in VLC either? The playback bar, or whatever just bounces back and fourth.

I got it working on my morning flight, is yours laggy?

I completely forgot about how it reverts settings after updates, thanks.

Alright, I tried that but it didn't work maybe I wasn't holding down for long enough, anyways I'll try again tomorrow morning when I plan on getting some sunrise footage with the castle.

After I updated my M2P I can't open new footage, it says the footage is either corrupted or the file type is incorrect, some of the footage is still cached on my phone but I'd like to have the actual footage from the SD card (I've tried multiple SD cards, any new footage won't let me view it)...
