    Rc Pro attitude mode fly with caution

    I’ve flown in dense urban areas plenty, and man let me tell you - GPS/Compass can (and frequently do) become wacky near tall buildings, tons of signal interference, and certainly both. I’ve owned several DJI drones over the course of 5 years or so, and the only times I’ve lost control to the...

    Tested waypoints on my Mavic 3 today …

    I was thrilled when I stumbled upon waypoints being pushed to the M3. So I was super curious to see how consistently it flies the same mission. I just created a relatively basic mission, maybe 7 or 8 waypoints, and deployed it 4 times today throughout the day. I am quite impressed with the...

    SSD fills fast, any MicroSD card fast enough for ProRes?

    As others have stated, make sure you are plugged into a fast enough port. USB 3.1 or USB-C/Thunderbolt. Even on the same computer, not all USB ports are created equal. Either refer to the technical specifications of your computer, or try using every port to speed test the data transfer.

    Mavic 3 Cine w/ RC Pro - Panorama mode woes (sluggish, timeouts)

    Okay quick update - I just got the M3C up to run some pano tests, and this time it could was consistently unable to finish any 180 degree panoramas, beginning to lag anywhere between the first photo, a photo in the middle, and one time the last photo. And when I say lag, I mean basically stop at...

    Would love to know what you find if you have time to do some testing.

    Mavic 3 Cine w/ RC Pro - Panorama mode woes (sluggish, timeouts)

    So I was able to get my M3C out yesterday and tested writing to SSD vs. writing to the SD card slot. The problem seems to happen MOST of the time when writing to SSD, and I did not encounter the problem at all when writing to the SD card slot. I probably shot 25 panoramas total, a mix of...

    Mavic 3 Cine w/ RC Pro - Panorama mode woes (sluggish, timeouts)

    I am what @vicvideopic refers to as a “panorama hero.” (HUGE fan of Vic, btw) :p So you can imagine my excitement when the January firmware update arrived for the M3. What I’ve experienced has been suboptimal however, and I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced this and/or found any worthy...

    Is there a (better) way to see what my control sticks are doing by using flight log data?

    I sincerely appreciate everyone's input. I do use Airdata, but I'm relatively new to using it and didn't know about the HD flight player. That suggestion (thanks Wade) was helpful, as are the web-based log viewers. This (+practice) should all help nudge me in the right direction.

    Manual orbit precision with RC Pro controller …

    Wow this looks like it might be what I’m looking for. I’ll have more time to dig into it later tonight, but thank you a million times over for sending this. I’ll keep the thread posted. Edit: I just watched the video from the point at which you linked it, and wow - that’s EXACTLY the problem...

    Is there a (better) way to see what my control sticks are doing by using flight log data?

    Viewing a flight log in the DJI Fly app, I know I can toggle the view of the controller sticks to see what they were doing while flying around. I'm trying hard to improve my precision with flying certain complex patterns, and I am wondering if there is a way to take the data from the DJI Fly app...

    Manual orbit precision with RC Pro controller …

    I own a Mavic Air 2 with the original controller it came with, as well as Mavic 3 with the RC Pro controller. I’ve been flying drones for a few years now, and feel like I’ve gradually improved at maneuvering in moderately complex ways, but the RC Pro control sticks seem to lack resistance if...

    When is Mavic 3 firmware arriving?

    Hahaha true. I’m a huge fanorama of panorama, so I’m very much looking forward to it. I know what the MA2 can do in camera can be done manually, but the convenience of the in camera stitching for proofing jpg panoramas is super super nice. I digress, and will just shoot some time lapses to...

    When is Mavic 3 firmware arriving?

    I suspect I already know the answer to this question, I.e. “when it’s done.” But I am curious if anyone has any idea when the “January” Mavic 3 firmware update might be published, enabling some of the currently unusable features.

    Is there a way to wirelessly transfer photos from the Mavic 3 Cine or the RC Pro controller to iOS?

    Mavic Air 2 cases

    Can you post some pictures of the case you received? Do you still like it? That's pretty tempting, especially since there is a US/shipping option.
