    Photo Editing

    Jim, Thanks for putting that through Topaz. I’m out of town and away from my Mac and was going to do the same & see what I could get from the original upload from the OP. Looks good, it was a bit of a tough pic from the get go to work with but you did it well, thanks. One last comment and...

    Photo Editing

    Hey Mavicmini, Nice photo. To help answer your question of polishing up a photo, I know it’s a money thing for a lot of folks and I get it. But if you’re serious about cleaning up pictures, it may be worth checking into Lightroom Classic subscription and then Topaz Photo AI. (I also use...

    Anyone here has reservations over friction-mount strobe light mounts?

    Hey MA2 317, I took your advice and eliminated any potential metal interference issues and made my brackets from plastic. So the point of all this was to eliminate leg mounts (I have them, like them but a hassle vs quality Velcro), any air flow disruption they may cause from the prop, no...

    Anyone here has reservations over friction-mount strobe light mounts?

    Thank you for your observation. I think that’s a good idea. I may find some 90 degree shaped plastic from something around the house and cut it to dimension and replace the metal, it is not aluminum, as a precaution. Smart you are…thanks

    Anyone here has reservations over friction-mount strobe light mounts?

    I use them in the daytime, very helpful. also, Velcro has been fine for me as long as it’s quality and mount spot prepped well. Here’s a little variation to other pilots methods and how I mounted to my Air 2S, made a couple little metal brackets for support and the slope of the drone angles...

    Private pilot with part 107 - certificate question…

    Did not ”expedite”. Even though I have aviation experience, I still did the full course with Pilot Institute. I felt there were a lot of additional tips, information and insight that Greg offered, from his personal experiences, that added to the overall knowledge base for me.

    Private pilot with part 107 - certificate question…

    I’m a private pilot with an instrument rating and recently passed my Part 107 (thanks Pilot Institute)…. I’m waiting for my certificate to be processed with the FAA so does anyone know if I will get a separate certificate for Remote Pilot UAS or will I get a new card with basically everything I...

    Air 2S and controller having a hard time shaking hands.

    I had a similar experience, Air 2S as well, swapped out the USB cable for a new one and it seems to be fine now. Perhaps just re-seating the cable might help?

    Wisconsin greetings

    Air 2s, at least for now…. I’m more interested in photography and making short movies in post via Final Cut Pro. The 2S packs well enough in my adventure bike panniers and it’s a big enough bird to deal with more enthusiastic winds when out west like Wyoming. Decent enough video but licking...
