    Sun is setting

    Cool spot. From a filmmaking perspective, you could improve this by offering more "reveal." The helix shot your drone performed is designed as a "reveal" style of film shot. Therefore, the real payoff is in the big landscape view which you didn't really capture. You got some of it near the end...

    Fly indoor

    Would love to know the answer as well. Settings for flying indoors. I would think you want to disable sensors and fly carefully. But how do you turn off GPS?

    Mavic2 Pro vs. Zoom camera resolution: Update

    I am very interested in this--I don't fully understand. When you are referring to the "High-Res Module" do you mean the HDR (High Dynamic Range)? If not, then where do I find the "High-Res Module?"

    Lost M2Z, new pilot, unsure what went wrong

    Thanks--I can't answer your question about "throttle up." There was essentially no visible response on the Smart Controller, so I did not know what was happening. I was pressing RTH button, but there was no movement of the drone location on the map. It simply stayed in one place on the map.

    Yes, this is the flight.

    Lost M2Z, new pilot, unsure what went wrong

    I think this is the file--I found it on an SD Card which I was using on the Smart Controller

    Lost M2Z, new pilot, unsure what went wrong

    Thanks. So the link from posts #2 and #3 does not appear to work with the DJI Smart Controller which is the device I was using at the time of loss. However, I think I have found the .txt file in a folder called DJIFlightRecord....txt so I am hoping I can upload that file.

    Lost M2Z, new pilot, unsure what went wrong

    I did, but the location was inaccessible without a boat and some other equipment. What is "OA?"

    Lost M2Z, new pilot, unsure what went wrong

    The sun had definitely crested the horizon, it was on the late side of dusk. There was light enough to see the landscape but it was twilight.

    All batteries new and everything in great condition

    Lost M2Z, new pilot, unsure what went wrong

    Flew about 20 flights. Read everything, still trying to digest it all, but I'm trying to be diligent. I flew out over a salt marsh in late evening. Received notification on Smart Controller that signal had been lost. Maps showed drone in one place. Hoped RTH would kick in, but no such luck...

    Can Quickshots flight patterns preserve vid in real time?

    I really like the Quickshots auto-flight patterns. The internal video editor automates sped up motion on all the finished products. Is there any way for the drone to auto-fly the same patterns, but provide the video as though it were shot normally? Or a way to remove the Fast-forward portion...

    Looking for Workflow Instruction or Tutorials

    Does anyone have links to info or tutorials on File Workflow? I am new and having the hardest time figuring out the digital file workflow used by M2. SD Card on M2, Cache, Photos marked "Original" (Is this the original full-res or the original "Cache"), nearly 75 folders on the SD Card from the...
