Yep, that's why it's red - Sport Mode disables Obs avoidance sensors. Tapping it should give you its status. Lots of stuff turns those off tho, as mentioned. Being on the ground, it being too dark, Sport Mode, OA being turned off etc etc

Yes it's understandable but frustrating that DVR free won't do 10 bit. But DaVinci Resolve full version is actually priced very reasonably, and in a world increasingly heading in the direction of subs-only it remains rare that they are not doing that ! So that is still my primary recommendation...

Lols - yeah, cats are very distrustful of drones initially, as we should all be ! :)

Yes you are. Mavic pilots can be interested in what other brands are up to as well !

The forces a UAV is subject to when being hand-held are of a rather different character to those it experiences whilst in flight. It's probably fine, and nothing you need to worry about, as long as that behaviour doesn't persist when flying normally, so my advice is test it normally as soon as...

No problem - it only needs to be said once in every thread about them.... 'lest we forget'.

I don't either, but it is still important to always mention what traitors those guys are to the hobby, and how they tried to remove us and our DJIs from the skies. I don't care what they do now - I will never give them any money or support in anything they do. What we are seeing now is...

I would much prefer it if our DJI machines still let us manually choose not to use GPS, and start, and finish flights in Atti / self-levelling modes. I hate that it the only way to get to this mode is through GPS failure, because I hear increasingly often that this jamming doesn't necessarily...

Yeah just checked out dronescene and there's a few vast NOTAMs around the place at the moment - I am lucky to be just outside one, but you have to wonder how safe I am - it's not like the jamming completely stops at the border is it ?! Surprised they can get away with whole weeks worth of...

I have never had a complete, sudden loss of GPS with my mini (4P). In fact once I gain them I don't think I ever noticed losing any more than 1 or 2... so I wonder what caused that ? We have had several days of unusually high KP Index, up in the 7's but the overall consensus is that we don't...

Yep - that. Succinctly put.

I hope that wasn't aimed at me ! My guess may yet turn out to be wrong, but you couldn't call it illogical from the symptoms on display, and I remain convinced that this assertion is defensible and supported, so doing that wouldn't be worse ! But anyway, I don't need to die on this hill, so...

I didn't mind that someone other than me pointed out that my theory about what happened was a guess - just that the implication seemed to be that it was therefore utterly worthless as a contribution and I should feel somehow ashamed of myself for positing it !

Well said !

They do give us a very good flight simulator, which is almost as good ! But I still remember my Yuneec Hex with its detachable cams and whatnot, very helpful initially.
