    Looking to converse with someone that has a Mavic Pro or Mavic Pro Platinum with a gimbal that fully calibrates.

    Yes! Several times. The video always looks great. Snapshots clear as can be.

    All right. My MPP doesn't do anything like when it hits 68%. My video isn't quite as clear as @RadioFlyerMan's video. But, I do have my daughter practicing her cello in the background. You can jump to 1:30 where it gets to 68% and watch the moves it tries to make... It looks like it is really...

    Looking to converse with someone that has a Mavic Pro or Mavic Pro Platinum with a gimbal that fully calibrates.

    I've watched tons of videos on Youtube on this subject and the video provided here, by far, looks to be the most helpful. There are lots of people who talk about their gimbal calibration failing. Or talk about shaky video. But nothing that I was able to find that provided such a clear concise...

    PERFECT! Thank you so much. Now I can't wait to get home tonight an make a comparison to what mine is doing. Message to the mods: I think it would be super cool if there were videos in a library of these kinds of things. A reference bank for people looking for solutions!

    I've had my Pro Platinum now for a few years. It flys just great. Picture are sharp. Video is great looking in all formats. So I'm not too worried at all. I went about a year without flying. So when I had the chance, I charged up all my batteries and controller and took it for a flight. Just...

    Stripped screws[emoji51][emoji51]

    Like BossBob says, if it is the threads, then see if you can just pull the screw out. I've gone so far as to super glue a screwdriver bit on to the head of a screw to help pull it out. If the threads are intact but the screw is rounded out on top, then there are a few things to try. First, I...

    Shaky video issue

    No, I started the video before starting the props. So that vibration exists while the drone is just sitting. I can put my finger under the gimbal and feel the gimbal motors running. As if they are constantly trying smooth things out.

    Shaky video issue

    For background on this, I had run my drone in to a tree which ended up ruining the flat gimbal cable. I debated whether to try and replace the cable or see if I could find a gimbal assembly. Well the full assembly is readily available and I figured I would just try that first. The part came and...

    Drove almost 3 hours round trip for this short piece of steam locomotive footage. And it was well worth it.

    Big Boy 4014 is much bigger than that. Also, 4014 was converted to burning fuel oil so it really runs a pretty clean stack. He was coming through our town this past summer so I caught this video on my GoPro.

    I was arrested for flying a drone *updated with video*

    OP, If I may ask, what app did you use on your Watch to record the audio?

    Fluidity FT Aviator

    So it looks like this is really an advanced joystick used to control drones with the same movements an astronaut might use to control an external robotic arm on the ISS. But biggest caveat to me is that it can't fly a Mavic without having a connection to our standard Mavic controller. So in...

    The place to change that is in the Go app and not in Assistant...
