    I hate being a doofus. But what are the obvious reasons?

    Rough cut of a night shoot with my Dji Mavic 2 Pro

    Very good video. I’m trying to learn more about shooting video. So, your shoot brought a few questions to mind. Hopefully you can share some information. 1 - What app do you use to create the video? 2 - Where do you get your audio? The music fits the video very well. 3 - Did you slow down...

    After 5 days of intensive tracking, my Mavic Mini finally finds itself 15 cm from a Varanus Salvator

    Great video clip. It shows a lot of creative shots. where do you get your audio track. I,m getting tired of hearing the same old tracks from Movavi, but I don’t do enough video work to justify $8 (US) per month for an audio subscription. Thanks again for your inspiration.

    I’ researched this before. There are several good ideas presented on You Tube.

    A Better Way to Charge/Discharge your DJI Batteries

    Does DJI have an opinion about storage voltages and discharge / charge strategies? I’ve never given much thought to actual storage voltages and I guess that I’ve just been lucky up until now. I’m part of the “ignorance is bliss until something goes wrong” crowd. This is why I love this forum...

    RTH Fail - experienced pilot, never thought it would happen to me :(

    That is my worst drone nightmare. It makes me think of all the parents who have to let go of their child as he or she grows up and wants to go places out of our sight. I haven’t encountered a scare like that ... yet. I hope I can keep my wits about me to save myself from my panic. i’ve read...

    Quick sunset flighty at Cherry Creek Reservoir, CO

    Very nice. How do you add audio to your drone footage? I’m new to this. And, an audio track really enhances the video.

    Abandoned sanatorium - Spooky drone video!

    This is an extraordinary video that you have created. I’m just now starting to look at ways to make my videos more artistic. Right now they bore even me. Can you tell me which editing app you are using. Also, do you use the same app for adding the audio track? Thank you for this video...

    Attacked by a bird?

    All the movement is crazy. Maybe next time a quick “look around” may reveal the culprit. But, the footage is great. It’s very clear and the color really “pops”. Do you use Any filters? And, what app do you use for post flight editing and adding music?

    Amid privacy backlash...

    Thanks for this post. It evokes thoughts and emotions that help my morning coffee wake me up, get my blood flowing and prepare me for another day in paradise. We live in a new world where there is news that is unverifiable, and therefore possibly fake, skewed or reported without taking the...

    Battery Care

    Thanks for posting this thread. It made me curious. As an ongoing battery maintenance plan, do you suggest a strategy that follows a discharge/store/charge/fly sequence or a discharge/recharge/store/fly sequence?

    New FAA regulations on Trump's desk

    Sorry about being vague. I was talking about the need to send letters to my senators. I was too focused on the fact that the bill had passed President Trump’s desk. I definitely agree with you about registering. I support the law.

    360 pano of Connecticut Sunset w/moon

    This is an awesome and beautiful photograph. Being an absolute beginner with all of this, I’d love to learn how you did that. I used to live in New Haven and Madison, CT ans spenttime working for the telephone company all over the state. Where is the subject of this great sight?
