    MA2 | Active Track 3.0 Highlights

    You're welcome. Yeah it takes a level of trust in the technology for sure. It was watching other peoples tracking videos that gave me the confidence, so I'm glad I could pay it forward :)

    Shipping Docks of Melbourne Aus in 4k60p

    Hey Dunc, thanks for the comment. I believe at the time I was using my phone screen (Samsung A50), but nowadays I use an iPad mini 5 for my screen. Glad you enjoyed it, sometiems I have to pinch myself that we have access to such a cool flying camera!

    Help with 24fps and jitter

    To my eyes this is normal amount of jittering for 24fps at that speed and subject matter, whether it's acceptable to you I think is a preference at this point. I agree with the point about the monitor you're viewing it on making a difference. I find the same footage can look significantly...

    Help with 24fps and jitter

    The simple answer is your need to set your shutter speed to twice that of your frame rate, so: 24fps = 1/50th (I don't think there is a 1/48th so this is the next closest) 30fps = 1/60th 60fps = 1/120th Then adjust your exposure by using your ND filters (or ISO but I'm assuming your trying to...

    Shipping Docks of Melbourne Aus in 4k60p

    They're impressive machines huh? I have to keep checking my altitude thinking "...really?": ) There's a 90m restriction on the area and they're probably like 65-70m tall? Even the light posts in the car park are around 40m to accomodate the other vehicles :D

    Shipping Docks of Melbourne Aus in 4k60p

    Hey fellow Mavic Pilots! I'd like to share my latest video of a compilation of shots of a few different days filming over Melbourne's shipping docks and yards. All footage was captured in 4k60p on the mighty little Mavic Air, 2 apart from the Hyperlapses. Hope you enjoy this unique perspective...

    Fly App 1.1.6 update on the yaw smoothness glitch!

    Yep, exactly, and that's why the smoothness setting in working in Tripod mode as well.

    Fly App 1.1.6 update on the yaw smoothness glitch!

    I just did a bit of testing with the new firmware and it looks like the smoothness settings work if the obstacle avoidance is set to "brake" or off, but don't apply when its set to "go around or avoid". Only Normal mode has this option, in Tripod mode it's just set to brake, and Sports mode...

    4K Zoom, more than just digital zoom? [UPDATE]

    Interesting results, thanks for testing! I just did a bit of backyard testing myself and my observations are that 4k Wide and 4k Zoom x1 have comparable image qualities with a few subtle differences. 4K Zoom x1 seems to not be so heavily sharpened as the 4K Wide, resulting in a slightly...
