There are MANY laptops out there claiming to be gamers or creators. And appear to have the CPU & GPUs that you want. How do you tell them apart? 1. Look at the power rating of the power dongle. My Lenovo Legion 7 (middle of the Lenovo gamers. L5 L7 L9) has a 330watt power dongle. Plenty of...

I have my top strobe where it is shown in your photo. Everything works fine. I have a bottom strobe just behind the gimbal, so I can see the drone at night. When I point the gimbal straight down to see my landings, the camera gets the bright flashes across it from the bottom strobe. D'OH! So...

For commercial work, you will need the FAA Part 107 remote pilot certification. You should have part 107 to get drone liability insurance. Mine is not renewing policies withOUT 107 cert #. There is a large amount of FAA regs & info you must know to pass the part 107 cert test. I took the Pilot...

AutoPano Pro was considered the reference standard since ~2005 to stitch panos. $100 back then & worth every penny. Just point it to a directory & it will find all panos available to stitch together. Many perspective & rendering options. Good GPU support for large & faster renderings. The...

Your Air 3S should display a warning notification DURING Flight if anything it measures is overheating. I was flying slowly next to a cliff face in Moab on a warm day. I got a warning that the Obstacle-Avoidance sensor(s) are overheating & it was disabling O.A. One warning said something "was...

A creek in the Sierra we found years ago. A spring visit about 2 weeks after the pass opens will reward you with the LOUD waterfall. :cool: My 1st Air 3S video & edited in DVR. I have a lot to learn yet! Someday I hope to fly the drone in smooth, cinematic motions. Catfish ...

Beautiful video of some great scenery! Thanks for sharing! Catfish ...

I LOVE extracting the KML files of my 3D flight records on AirData UAV to display on Google Earth Pro. Very COOL! I'm confused as to why you expect flight logs to be on your phone, UNLESS you actually fly it from the DJI Fly app on your phone? I Fly via an RC2 and then connect my RC2 to my PC...

Yes, I have been watching his videos for a couple of years. Very informative, but his pacing is a bit quick for me, so I have to watch parts of his videos several times to catch all details. Sharpening tool on the color tab? Hmmm ... are you referring to the "Blur" tool?

I use DV Resolve to edit DJI's D-Log M video files. I have an Air 3S and an Action 5 Pro. D-Log M is a flattened Rec.709, but the flattening algo is not published by DJI. Grrr... Go to DJI's support pages and download the specific LUTS for your drone cameras. Install the LUTs. Most of the YT...
