    Help Please: Mavic 2 Pro Lost Yesterday

    I went through the same issue some years ago when I was wanting to buy a wireless weather station.

    Help Please: Mavic 2 Pro Lost Yesterday

    Was just about to post the same. Also, the ascent to 500 ft is illegal. There is a walking track and viewing platform at the base of the falls, and this being a popular tourist attraction on the Gold Coast in the peak holiday season there is a fair chance you were flying over people as well.

    PolarPro Filters Which Set?

    I have been interested in photography on and off for over 40 years, but am new to drones. I recently agonised over the filter question and ended up purchasing a custom set from PolarPro for my M2P. I bought ND 4, 16, and 64 for video, along with a CP for photos. I skipped a stop with the NDs, I...
