    Mini 2 Stacking night photos for the Mini 2

    Here are several stacked 2 second exposures at night of the Delaware Water Gap in PA looking east towards NJ, the highway is Interstate 80. It was a bit breezy that night but I managed to gather enough exposures to work with. Stacked with DeepSkyStacker and edited with Luminar 4.

    DJI Fly vs Litchi - is it worth it ?

    I ran some tests this afternoon. I lowered the R. Deceleration and R. Acceleration and got even better results.

    DJI Fly vs Litchi - is it worth it ?

    Hi, Rexster1505, The Deceleration and Acceleration numbers in the image I posted are the numbers you'd want to use. The default numbers built in are higher and that speed is too much for smooth flights. Actually the H. Deceleration could be -3.3 like the others. So you'd have something like...

    DJI Fly vs Litchi - is it worth it ?

    For each mission, check your motion limits in settings. If you haven't tried this, set your Deceleration and Acceleration rates as in this image. These numbers smooth the flight out a great deal. The default numbers are too harsh.

    Waypoint mission never completes initialization

    Are you in sports mode? I don't believe a Waypoint mission runs in that mode. In fact, Litchi recommends switching to sports mode as a quick way to break out of a mission. That's all I can think of at the moment.

    New MP1 Owner long time Spark user - Looking for any advise as I transition

    I started with the Spark and then went with the MA2 but still bought the MP1 (slightly used) a year later. The lens on the MP1 is really good and with the right settings can generate very crisp video. It looks like you're already digging into the manual settings on it and that's where the GO 4...

    Best all around drone?

    I have the Mavic Pro, Mavic Air 2, and the Mini 2. Tough one, but the way things are going in the rules department, I'd have to say I'd keep the Mini 2. It's been the easiest for me to fly without being noticed and I suppose it'll remain the least impacted by rules and more rules a little longer...

    Can't find Mavic Pro battery suppliers, please share your finds

    As mentioned in another post of mine, I recently received a Mavic Pro from this place and it, along with four batteries, are in perfect condition. If anyone is looking for Pro batteries, give this it a shot. They have 12 in stock as of this writing at $44 ea. http://mpb.com

    Mavic pro vs mini 2

    I'm late to the party but having just added a Mavic Pro to the fleet, I'll chime in. I think it's similar to asking which is better, the large hammer or the small. It comes down to if you're driving a spike into the ground or if you're hanging a small picture on the wall. The Mini 2 is my "take...

    MPB.COM sends me a gem!!

    I know, how dare they! LOL I actually was looking forward to the shoulder bag. I'm always taking these on hikes or packing them on a motorcycle. This Nanuk case is pretty serious though, I may have to plan an Alaskan expedition to make use of it. :) This whole package makes me think this outfit...

    MPB.COM sends me a gem!!

    I fly a Mavic Air 2 and a Mini 2 but I miss how Litchi would upload missions to my Spark which I sold. Yes, virtual sticks on the MA2 will work with it but I don't feel it's quite as good. Maybe it's just the beta version? Anyway, I wanted an older DJI drone and took a chance on a Mavic Pro Fly...
