With my use of the Mavic 3 Pro, I appreciate the RC Pro's bigger/brighter screen and the stronger signal; I am assuming one will need the RC Pro 2 to get the same relative advantages. Besides, I had hoped to buy the new drone without any controller at all :)

Chris - this is simply amazing and inspiring. I love it very much indeed! Some of those shots, I am guessing, were shot in the Kimberley? Astonishingly good. Ed (in Sydney)

The new thread is here: 3 - My first year as a drone pilot: favourite images

Hey everyone - thanks so much for the positive Feedback Note that I have now posted a new thread with a selection of these images added directly. Sorry for the duplication!

And batch 2, as I can only upload a certain number at a time

Hello all, *** Please note: this replaces a thread I posted a few weeks back. I made the mistake of including a link to my Flickr site with drone images on. I hadn't remembered that this was against the rules, so the link was quite rightly removed. So this thread replaces that old one, with...

Oh well. I guess I will just have to wait longer to be able to purchase. Or just stuck with my current gear and wait for the 5 :cool:

Thanks - I guess the fact they are bringing out an RC Pro 2 doesn't absolutely guarantee that the RC Pro isn't compatible (it just means they are bringing out a new model, which makes it likely they will make it incompatible to drive sales). However, all the points made above point closely to...

I realise nobody who will reply here actually knows for sure (!), but based on past experience of DJI model upgrades, can anyone hazard a shrewd guess on whether it's likely that the new Mavic 4 Pro will work with my existing RC Pro controller? I realise they probably want to sell the bundle...

I recently had a problem with my RC Pro (which I used with a Mavic 3 Pro). Lately I've had the controller prompt me a few times to recalibrate the sticks and dials. I didn't think anything of it and just went through the process (I should definitely have asked myself why was this was...

Hello all, I've just completed my first year as a drone pilot - with my Mavic 3 Pro. I'm a newbie with flying but very experienced as a photographer, so it's been fun to find a new perspective. Hope everyone enjoys them. All feedback gratefully received, good or bad! Ed

Lovely to get some glimpses of the disused railway line - including the old viaduct and the section that used to run down to Loch Tay. Reminds me of my younger days, when I spent some time around there, cycling and climbing Ben Lawers!

Thanks Arnold. I have thought about that too but there's a problem with that approach: the train has some bright elements on it (headlights, open fire hole door - because it's a steam engine, etc.). These elements would look blurred with a long exposure, leaving a trail, alongside the sharp...

That may be the only way, but it would require very powerful continuous lighting. If I can use flashes, that would be my preference. Its being a PITA I can live with; but is it even possible?

Just the one shot
