    A2 CofC and 2 Pro vs Mini 2 New Rules

    Tried the Mini 2 for the first time outside today, just as a trial I took it out to 210m, I was still able to see it and more importantly reacquire it after looking away and that wasn't in the best light either. So 120m must be an arbitrary number. Lets hope it doesn't make it into the regs.

    A2 CofC and 2 Pro vs Mini 2 New Rules

    I just had another look through the latest CAP722 on the CAA's website and cannot find any reference to 120m except for height from the surface of the earth, they may of course have inside info as I know they are in contact with the CAA but based on the current publications, I would say its a...

    Resolve Choppy 4k Playback vs PP and Powerdirector

    Interesting, seems to me that Cyborg certainly has the specs for 4k editing. My laptop is borderline due to the RAM and VRAM. I still don't really get why for playback and simple editing Resolve struggles where others seem not to have a problem though. Hey ho, I guess I'll have to either...

    Resolve Choppy 4k Playback vs PP and Powerdirector

    With that spec you should be able to make it get up and dance! The thing I don't get is that Powerdirector will even play nice with h265 footage from the 2 Pro. If you don't mind me asking which editing software do you recommend?

    Resolve Choppy 4k Playback vs PP and Powerdirector

    Hi, I have been using Resolve for some time with 1080p editing. In order to improve output quality I decided to swap to 4k (h264) from my 2 Pro. I have a reasonable laptop with 16GB RAM, an NVidia GTX870M with 6GB vRAM, Win 10, SSD drive and Core i7 CPU. When I tried editing 4k in Resolve the...

    Flying past a ship’s bridge, got me reported

    I guess the latter part of this was aimed in my general direction, however I do have to agree, potentially unsafe and somewhat intrusive.

    Police Common Sense and Society in General

    Agreed, still good to see the police acting sensibly. Yes I can see that its normal, however it shouldn't be. Why people feel the need to cause trouble was always beyond me. To my mind anyone doing this does not have enough to keep them busy or worry about, still I suspect that may be about to...

    Davinci Resolve and 2.7k footage Mavic 2 Pro

    Thanks for the reply, I just rendered this short clip at 2704x1520 but I'm not sure that YouTube plays it at full resolution. Forgive the terrible flying, I was trying to get used to the waypoint settings! Strangely the PC will render 4k really well but the process of editing it is painful, it...

    Advice on getting started with video editing.

    Granted if you are going to use it to its full capabilities it is very complex, as is Premier Pro (and others, I used to use Cyberlink Powerdirector and I don't think Resolve is any harder for basic editing). Cutting and editing a few clips together is not difficult on it though and working in...
