Night photography can be a challenge even using a regular DSLR...the general rule is low ISO to reduce noise, and keep the camera still. Take your time framing your shots, and take multiple shots. Set up your camera to shoot intervals say every 5-10 seconds, when you feel you have a decent shot...

I normally turn off RTH if I'm flying under obstacles...when trying to gauge clearance under a bridge it is best to have to drone and flight path directly in front of you... however as you approach the bridge look at your screen, if you can see the edge of the structure on the opposite side...

I totally agree with you, but we still need to protect the rare and endangered spotted leopard toad or some such creature that is yet to be discovered.

The sport mode switch, that will stop the mission

I believe this process also helps when using other flight modes and it starts behaving erratically.

Has anyone tried Ultimate Flight with the Mavic Pro. The Mavic is listed as compatible to version 3, but I haven't seen much discussion as of yet. Sent from my SM-G900V using MavicPilots mobile app

Interestingly I was having the same issue. DJIGO, DJIGO4, AND Lithci would not connect. What did work for me was to turn on remote first, then the Mavic, then plug in my phone to the remote. When prompted to chose the app of choice, I'd choose only once instead of setting a default app. This...

I'm the same way. I used to fly RC helis with dreams of one day having a DSLR set up, and learned early on the transmitter is the first thing you turn on. I never got my skills up enough to strap a huge cam on a helicopter though. All the hours I spend learning to fly heli's has greatly helped...

I'm studying for the part 107 cert, and have been reading the code, and the study guide. My concern is what I might be missing that may be on the test. Any pointers? Sent from my SM-G900V using MavicPilots mobile app

I flew today using the old version and updated firmware without any issues. C1, C2, and the 5 way button all worked fine. Oh, on Android btw. Sent from my SM-G900V using MavicPilots mobile app

Thanks Anthony, I did consider doing that, however I've had no issues thus far with version 3.x.x. I think I'm lucky in that regard. Hopefully it will be resolved in an update soon. Sent from my SM-G900V using MavicPilots mobile app

Another option while waiting for your Mavic is to find a decent simulator to help you get a grasp of orientation. Although not perfect it can help a bit...it did for me anyway. Good luck. Sent from my SM-G900V using MavicPilots mobile app

So simple it's genius, I am "upgrading" my packaging as we speak. Sent from my SM-G900V using MavicPilots mobile app
