I just received my Smatree hard shell case for Mavic 2, and I just realized that the Mavic doesn't fit the hole if the back propellers are on (my Mavic 1 case had enough space). So now, I'm obligated to remove them, and I don't like that only because it's another step in the setup. Also, it...

I suggest that you backup whatever file you need to backup like videos, photos, flight logs, etc. Then, delete the app completely, and reinstall it. I just got a new iPhone (SE 3rd gen), so maybe the version was not adequate or some other mismatch. After launching the freshly downloaded app, the...

The most photographed hotel in the world, Château Frontenac, Ville de Québec

Chute Montmorency, Ville de Québec

Mont Saint-Hilaire, woohoo! I recognized the silhouette from afar...

I did try Sports Mode a few times, still being extremely careful, in an open space, keeping strict LOS. The response and speed are nice, but I never, EVER, succeeded in having a single correct shot at the speeds that this mode allows, even with very simple maneuvers. Sooner or later, my shots...

Richelieu River and Sainte-Thérèse Island, Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Québec. June 2020.

Nice photo and video, SteveCA. About the video, is it a timelapse of multiple photos or simply a video accelerated? What kind of settings did you use? Any retouching in post?

Wow, you guys have super cool gear, bleeding edge technology! Seriously, I can't see anything on my phone, the screen's resolution is really bad. Any advice?

If you are FAA 107 compliant, you can issue a LAANC (Low Altitude Authorization and Notification Capability) request. Then, check this map to see if you have any altitude restriction. Most of Brooklyn has no restrictions, except over water, and some areas are either 400 or 200 feet limit zones.

THAT sentence cheered me up! Hats off to you, sir.

Wait... The Mavic Pro can tilt up over the horizon? That's what I see in the video and it looks like cheating.

There is obviously a problem with video compression, possibly from your own export settings and/or from YouTube's processing after upload. What software did you use for editing and exportation? What codec and settings did you use? Other than that, it could be the picture settings in the Mavic...

Hello everyone. I have a couple projects in mind that will require quite a lot of footage, and a lot of travel. So I want to get my hands on a car charger for my Mavic Pro. I have many questions on that matter. I currently have 2 batteries and I plan to buy at least one more. What kind of...

The photographer/cinematographer inside me totally understands the appeal of that kind of shot. Going under or "inside" things really enhances the impression of flying and that you really are at the control of a 3D camera. However, all that was said previously is good advice. Calculated risk is...
