thanks for your help!

I have found DC/AC converters to be cumbersome, and one more thing in the cab. I have used them when powering a laptop, but for the drone battery charging hub, they're overkill. The Anker plug is stubby and plugs into the dashboard cigarette lighter. It's way more convenient.

I ran the WP mission twice, once each at 20mph and 26mph. One battery was enough for each. I think the 26mph looked better. I paused and restarted the mission and video in the middle'ish of each straight section as the customer wanted smaller files that they will put together in post. I set WP...

Found it... I had pressed that button previously but it didn't react.

I did a practice yesterday on a small parking lot, and it worked well. I set WP mid-span on the long sides, and then each corner angled toward the center. I am thinking that I should fly the route to set the WP, save, and exit, and then RTH to replace the battery. I think the Air 3s can run the...

Wondering about battery life

Actually smooth rounded corners. I am thinking WP with pauses to stop/start recording. Probably do the pauses on the four straigh legs and let it fly itself around the corners.

Also, its a square plot and I think they are looking for more of a round orbit.

That's what I was thinking. I haven't set a SP for a large open area before, any advice? Also, I think they want it in smaller clips that can be stitched together probably BC it would otherwise be a huge file (4K 30 fps).

I recently got this, and it is awesome. Works with the RC and battery charging hub. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BSVB93DK?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

I have a job that requires video orbit of a large parcel of land. The customer wants a smooth orbit. I would like to use POI, but I don't think there is anything in the center to tie to. Any suggestions?

Anker makes good stuff. Amazon.com

I am using the Lekufee case that I bought for the Air3, and it works fine with or without a minor mod. The front motors don't sit down as deep, but the lid foam has plenty of space to accommodate them. I carved out a little notch that allowed the drone to settle in a bit deeper, but it wasn't...

Thanks to all for the feedback. I also called DJI and they pretty much confirmed that those are "baked in" to the firmware now. For me, I always keep an eye on the battery levels and now know that I need to double down on that.
