    H265 Capable Computer

    Portability (so I can edit while having a cigar on the balcony) is the #1 reason I'm kinda eyeballing a a macbook option. I can already do the LumaFusion route with the iPad now, but for me, Davinci Resolve is what I'm more familiar with, and what I use elsewhere. Regardless, that M1 chip is...

    H265 Capable Computer

    ive made the m1 ipad crunch 100mbit hevc 4k30 from my gopro, 470mbit hevc 4k30 10 bit from my r5, and even 8k raw from the r5. the hardware can absolutely handle it. the software sucks nuts though. lumafusion is by far the best thing going on ipad os, but its not even close to the likes of...

    1.4.8 Android

    That is indeed a very good question and one that needs to be answered. Why DJI chooses not to be forthcoming with the answers is as much an unknown as the answer itself. In security, assumption of trust is NEVER the default, nor should it be. That's how bad things often start. That said...

    1.4.8 Android

    Thank god, there's still some civil discourse out there =) My implication isn't intended to be that Tim is on the wrong device as in iOS/ipadOS, macOS, etc. (or Android, or the variant that Huawei had to fork because of the USDOJ idiocy in recent times, etc.) DJI is the one in the wrong...

    Who said anything about other drones? Again, constructive input is welcome here. Don't be shy, try it out.

    All you have are personal attacks? Not surprising. Do come back when you have something of value to add.

    1.4.8 Android

    Worlds apart or not, you seem to think that the security provided by Apple's refusal to allow sideloading works. So your suggestion is to REDUCE the security that you already think is lower on Android, by bypassing what checks and balances DO exist in the app store validation? And I agree...

    1.4.8 Android

    There's plenty wrong with it, but as I already mentioned in my previous reply, feel free to believe and do what you prefer. If this were, say, a firmware update from Canon, that's one thing (just as an example) since it doesn't have a direct path to other services and your personal data...

    1.4.8 Android

    You're welcome to trust that there's nothing bad in the app, or that their security internally is super top grade and a 3rd party hasn't injected their own fun into the code. I work in security, and this is simply the most blatant example of bad procedure I've seen from any otherwise reputable...

    wait, theyre pushing app updates for drones via direct website download too? they started that bs (that i saw personally anyway) with the ronins some time ago, but i havent even dusted off the m2p in a while to experience it for those apps. under absolutely no circunstances will i sideload an...

    Alphabet's Wing brings its drone safety app to the US

    If you like the direction the gov has gone more than that of Google, well.... wow.

    Combining drone footage with other cameras

    What Jack said! I'm not sure what more one could ask for that you didn't already accomplish in that edit. I too noticed that great focus rack from the photographer to the lighthouse, very well executed. If anything, I'll be rewatching to try and learn from your work. I've only combined...

    How to mount your drone on your mountain bikes - solved

    Heh, used to use a classic Camelbak TriZip bag, with drone in its own case inside that. God that was the opposite of fun to ride with though. Aside from screwing with balance, my mind gets stuck on 'dont crash and crush a ton of $$$$'. That's pretty much why I don't get out there with my high...

    How to mount your drone on your mountain bikes - solved

    Watched the other vid on your channel showing some of the footage. I'll preface this by saying that I definitely haven't come up with anything better (and doubt I ever will) but at that kind of riding speed and on that terrain I could see that working pretty decently. That said, two issues for...

    How was this follow video achieved?

    definitely not a single take/run. i noticed one cliffy spot in the video that made two appearances in the timeline (and 2nd pass was with the sun lower in the sky.)
