    Mavic Air prop bites

    I am serious. I've done it both ways and I liked the catch and tilt method much more than opening my hand and letting the drone land on it ot try to catch it as its descending. It hovers rock solid so I just put my hand under it and catch it before the sensors make it go up, it's not instant...

    Mavic Air prop bites

    Yeah why not? I almost consistently land by catching it from below, with all sensors on, and turning it sideways. and it stops. It seems to be the fastest, easiest and safest way to do it. The older firearms never complained but now the app says something about a rollover or crash but i just...

    Pictures seem noisy to me, can I have a second opinion?

    Thanks for your input guys. So I guess it is normal and the images that look great are just that way from post. At least now I know it's not defective. I'll stop shooting JPG all together and try to get better at clearing up and sharpening RAW. Also thanks for the software tips. Cheers.

    I think that only makes a difference in the JPG but not RAW.

    Pictures seem noisy to me, can I have a second opinion?

    I do process it, but it seems I have to do a lot of noise reduction, it seems VERY noisy and I feel like it shouldn't be. Did you actually look at the pictures? Canceling the noise reduces detail. This is ISO 100, it shouldn't look like that I don't think. I never owned something that shoots...

    Pictures seem noisy to me, can I have a second opinion?

    I would appreciate it if someone would take a moment and look at these 2 sets of pictures. I have my camera set to save Jpeg and RAW and I took 2 pictures as an example. The ISO is 100 in both these. I find they look hazy and noisy. Is this normal for a Mavic Air's sensor? I have seen some...

    [Solved] Lack of sharpness in distance with Air compared with Pro?

    Not sure if I should start a different thread but my RAW images are full of noise during day and I only use 100 ISO. I feel like everyone complaining has better pics than I do. Should I post pics here and see if someone can notice anything or should I just make a new submission for myself?

    Mavic Air Battery question

    I fly every couple of days. Once I am done flying I just charge my batteries and store them till next time. Seems to work well. If you are storing it for long periods you are not flying enough:)
