Ferry transport from Säynätsalo to Lehtisaari on June 4, 2025

Hello! Thanks for your reply! I used manual settings, so incorrect exposure is definitely the cause. Yes, I need to learn how to use the Fly app features better. Regards Jari

I went to film (with a DJI Air 3 drone) the slopes of the Riihivuori ski resort (located in Central Finland) on a sunny morning on March 21, 2025. I used 32/64 ND filters (Freewell Split ND). Since I had my sunglasses on, I didn't notice on the screen that the image was quite dark :(. Should I...

Thanks for all your comments! I think this thread can be closed and it can be said that a misjudgment of the flight conditions and the pilot's panic were the cause of my strange experience with the drone's behavior. 🤔

Hello, I was filming on February 23rd and the DJI Air 3 suddenly started to drift with the wind and not obey the controls. No joystick movements produced any results when I tried to take a panoramic photo at about 11 minutes. I was about to lose the entire device, but luckily it obeyed the RTH...

Difficult transport: Due to a broken bridge in Säynätsalo in Jyväskylä, heavy traffic must travel by ferry from Säynätsalo to Lehtisaari. In the video filmed on February 6, a tractor load of gravel is transported on a ferry through the ice:

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks! I didn't use any external programs, the image was downloaded directly from the drone.
