    3 Back Yard River Scene..

    Mavic 3 Flight with DJI RC Controller- Shot in D-Log, simple curves and some saturation in post. Rivers and waterfalls are starting to flood.. I was on the fence if the controller was necessary.. its giving confidence in technical flying in tight areas due to the clarity in the screen..

    Drone on Everest

    Curious how he managed batteries.. Long flights, cold, elevation and the Mavic was a large safety factor on the descent for Andrzej..so turn around time for a battery swap would be long, leaving the skier blind on route finding at times.

    Noise from Gimbal?

    I sent the video file to DJI and they promply agreed that the device needs to go in for diagnostic. I’ll post what they say.. Hopefuly the turn around is quick, they have been taking 4 day’s between e-mails on this.. Not a great situation as it made this sound right out of the box and I have...

    Noise from Gimbal?

    I feel the fan is an accurate assumption based on these comments. Gimbal operates normal, no alerts noted.. Hopefully they switch this unit out being 4 short flights old. It did it right out of the box..

    Noise from Gimbal?

    Noise from the gimbal area! Has anyone experienced that? I did a firmware refresh and it’s still there. Gimbal seems tight! Sounds much different than my previous Mavic Pro. DJI support agrees it does not sound right and I’m slowly dealing with them. It does go away when RPMS increase.. or what...

    Ditched Mavic Pro in ocean

    I was using intelligent mode hovering and shooting stills with 2nd camera.. something must have leaned on the stick and dropped it in the drink. Just simply bad maneuver by me.. shooting from a standup paddleboard. I know the risks associated with it and have done it many times and have never...

    Ditched Mavic Pro in ocean

    Thanks for that! Ya- I was multi tasking on a solo trip.. I am a photographer and was trying to grab too much at one time. Harsh ! Apparantly something shifted in my arrangement and hit the controller. I know better and thought I had a handle on things. That’s a hit to the professional standard...

    Ditched Mavic Pro in ocean

    Thanks! Ya, Strange the correct date did not show right the 1st few trys. Hopefully this is it. I was using intelligent flight mode. Temps were well above freezing. I saw there was a cold battery warning but I warmed it up and flew a brief flight prior to losing the MP2 in the drink. There was...
