    Call a "cat" a "cat" - Altitude vs height vs AGL vs MSL ...

    Read the drone code. Remain within 400ft of the earths surface. Forget buildings or other man made structures.(UK Rules).

    Altitude

    The “altitude” shown on the screen is actually “height” above the launch point.

    Altitude

    What do u mean your altimeter was 1000ft+. What altimeter? As long as you remained within 400ft of the ground you were not breaking the law.

    Done. Good luck

    Which map to use to view restricted airspace? UK only.

    Use the Drone Assist app. That will give you the answer you are looking for.

    Flying near airport

    Maybe that was a good place to start instead of asking everyone on here to do your work for you?

    Flying near airport

    Beware. This link is 4 years old. Much has changed since then. You need to refer here I believe: https://www.caa.co.uk/Consumers/Unmanned-aircraft/Our-role/Airspace-restrictions-for-unmanned-aircraft-and-drones/

    Flying near airport

    Download NATS Drone Assist or Guardian Altitude Angel. You get a better description. I think you would be unwise to fly there.

    Pilots With A Fear Of Heights

    Over the years I have come across many professional pilots who suffer from vertigo when on the ground.

    Noob here. Is there anything that ND filters can do that editing software cannot do if drones like the Mini 2 can already take raw photos?

    As I said earlier - ND filters DO make a difference to the final image appearance. In two ways. 1. Enabling a long shutter shutter speed on bright light to create the effects of movement (like water and clouds). 2 Enabling a wide aperture on bright days in particular (weddings?) to enable...

    ND filters can improve images by allowing improved creative effects. All they do is control the amount of light entering the lens thus allowing shutter speeds to be reduced (enabling movement effects) or opening the lens aperture as wide as possible (for depth of field effects). Both of these...

    I use my ND filters to enable a greater cinematic effect on video. They enable me to slow the shutter speed to twice the frame rate. So for a frame rate of 30fps I use 1/60th second shutter speed (with an appropriate ND filter). Google frame rate v shutter speed.
