I normally reply “your not that interesting” Dont kid yourself...

For me the MP is a perfect drone only really lacking one thing, aperture abilities. The 1 inch sensor is a welcome improvement, as is the 360 sensors. Being able to fly for longer, and faster might be fun when tracking my friends water skiing.... I’ll probably invest but only after selling...

I’m the exact opposite, I prefer to obtain the latest tech, use it then if the next best thing is seemingly worth the swap, I’ll sell on eBay and get the latest and greatest... I didn’t see any value in the GoPro 6 so kept my 5 for now. Besides my life isnt anywhere near extreme enough, I tend...

If the improved camera has apperture control with a 20MP camera I’ll be hard pressed not to buy it. Naturally price point will also be a factor. In general I love my MP but really want to be able to control light hitting the sensor. My 2c

I have a Mavic Pro, and await the upgrade. Then I too will sell off mine with Acces. to upgrade to the latest Tech. Thats how I operate. No hurry, my MP is producing great footage and pics in the mean time.

Yes, took me abit of fiddlling with settings, focus etc, and abit of luck. The night I took my pics I actually took about 20 shots where some were crappy, naturally you selectbthe best to showcase

My pictures were not taken in Tripod mode nor were was gimbal lock on, mostly with 8 second exposure time... Takes abit but they look great!

Here is a few I did, I live near a major Freeway intersection in Sydney. I found manual focus abit hard at first but soon got better. Hope you enjoy my results I too love the light streams on a road, or in the sky

I think you answered your own question. Always be aware of wind conditions and battery life... The only other way to get the drone to trave faster is in Sports mode but it depleats battery much faster.... I also fly around Tuggerah Lake, but normally only on very still days, for that exact...

I live in Western Sydney, where it appears so much restriction is all around me. However, I prefer to fly nearby the Central Coast, Tuggerah Lakes or Brisbane Water. so airport restrictions are not as tight. And the footage is generally more interesting than Western Suburbs. I would really...

Since these problems, I cheat abit and just use the RTH function to turn the MP is the correct direction then cancel it and manually fly it in. My 2 cents worth

I'm on Instagram, Twitter & Periscope @contactpete I post Drone shots also enjoy Geocaching.

Hello, I'm quite new to Drone flying, but noticed several people having a great time flying on Periscope. I bought a Mavic Pro, 1 month ago, and had great time flying around while broadcasting Via Periscope - Producer to the internet. Recently Periscope & DJI have both undergone an...
