    RC Pro Controller - Bricked?

    Well, that was stupid! Everything is now resolved, apparently when I thought that I was charging my controller, the cable or charger that I was using wasn't actually charging the controller and instead must have discharged it. Switching to a new combination and now it is charged to 3 lights and...

    RC Pro Controller - Bricked?

    Yesterday I updated the firmware on my RC Pro controller to whatever the latest version is, and all appeared ok after the update. I was able to go into settings and check everything out, etc. Afterwards I plugged the controller into the charger to give it a full charge and left it overnight...

    TRIPLTEK 8 Pro Tablet with DOBO brand RCN1 Adapter Plate - Very Low Usage

    I upgraded to the DJI RC Pro a few months back, and so no longer need my dormant TRIPLTEK 8 PRO tablet that I used with my AIR 2S and RCN1 controller. This tablet has only been used for flying my drone, so the usage is pretty low. The unit is in excellent shape, I installed the screen protector...

    So bummed - no drones allowed on Alaska cruise

    There is NO way on earth that any cruise line would allow a guest to on-board with a tank of compressed gas in their luggage!

    A2S DNG files are vignetted!

    I have used Affinity Photo (yes, I finally spent some money!) and it does do a good job with correcting the vignette from my Air 2S. Affinity is actually quite impressive for its cost, and pretty much has all the imaging tools that you could likely want. Plus Affinity offers other products in...

    A2s and air data

    If you enable subtitles in the camera setup menu, it will product .SRT files in the same directory of your SD card as the .MP4 videos. However, you have to be recording a video to get that. I believe that this is the only situation where flight data is recorded to the SD card. That doesn't sound...

    Air 2S 5.4K video playback problems

    It also depends on which version of VLC you install on Windows, as the one available in the "windows store" is a crippled version. I use the version of VLC downloaded from the VLC website all the time, and it has no problem playing anything that I throw at it

    Night Footage is BAD!!!

    I am not sure how the fixed aperture on the A2S is a negative, as it is F2.8 which is as wide open as the M2P goes, i.e. f2.8 -f11. A night shot will usually prefer to use the widest aperture over cranking up the ISO as compensation, so there is no real advantage of the M2P over the A2S in this...

    File Format Mystery Air 2s

    Aside from the DNG and JPG files, you may also find files with an SRT extension. These will be generated when you enable generating video subtitle files in the camera menu. These files contain caption data that can be read by programs such as VLC that will show various statistics about the...

    Shortest Flight in History

    I have an A2S, and during one session I landed the drone, changed the battery and went to do another flight and received a warning to check the props for any obstructions or issues. What the heck, I thought! So I examined my drone and spotted a 2 - 3 inch piece of dried grass that had become...

    Anyone in New Jersey lose a drone about a month ago?

    This reminds me, I was going to put a sticker on my A2S with my cell # on it and a promise for a reward if found ...

    Air 2s Picture quality?

    When all the ducks are in order, exposure wise, the raw files are pretty awesome and flexible. As well, even the JPEGs look pretty darn good as the drone does a bang up job with coming up with an image the OP should be pleased with

    Air 2s Picture quality?

    I hope that I didn't come across as too preachy! As I am learning myself, it should improve over time as you get used to how the drone responds

    Air 2s Picture quality?

    No, there is no image quality adjustments in the A2S. Are you evaluating the JPG files produced by the camera? If so, you should process the DNG raw files to process your images after the fact. However, to me, your pictures seem a bit overexposed with a lot of blown out highlight areas. This can...
