    Treasure Island, Florida - worth bring my drone?

    Treasure Island can be pretty busy but there are areas around Sloppy Joes where there is a lot of sand dunes between the resorts and the water. I am not an authority, but I have been told that it is fine to take off on the beaches, but don't fly where it's crowded or over people. Treasure Island...

    Video editing software for PC

    If you take video on your iPhone, you will not be able to add this media to any of the Windows based video editing programs. I tried with Adobe Premiere Elements which I purchased. The only way you can add this media is by running the files though a decoder like HandBrake. If you use an OSMO...

    Video of RV Park in Florida using my M2P, Litchi, OSMO Mobile 3 w/iPhone 8 in normal and showcase modes, and DJI Go 4 POI

    It's a mix. Some live there year round, but some spend the Winters there, like we do, and some spend anywhere from a few days to a few weeks then move on. Some of these rigs run upwards of a million dollars or more.

    Video of RV Park in Florida using my M2P, Litchi, OSMO Mobile 3 w/iPhone 8 in normal and showcase modes, and DJI Go 4 POI

    Nice horizontal stabilization with Osmo Mobile but still getting some up and dOwn motion from walking. Walking with my OSMO action seems better, but isn't used in this video. To improve editing response, I shoot 1080P and edit with Adobe Premier Elements 2019 and render at 1080P to YouTube...

    Winter clips from Finland

    Very nice story told with video. Just not a big fan of all the zooming transitions. Nice job otherwise.

    Sweden in December

    Nice Vid but just a little long as Slup pointed out, but that comes in time. Impressive coming from the Mavic Mini

    Which Mavic Pro 2 or Air

    I agree the M2P is much better. I ordinally bought the Air and loved it, but got too many lost connections, which tend to raise the blood pressure. I went from Air to M2P and iPhone 8 to iPad 9.7 with sunshades, to the 5.5 Crystal Sky and finally the7.85 Crystal Sky. Yes, the 7.85 Crystal Sky...

    Mavic 2 Pro - Add an Osmo Action or GoPro Hero 7 Black

    Sorry for the confusion. At some point I felt aerial video via the drone was exciting, but a story gets even better when mixed with some ground video, hence the DJI Action Camera. Here is an example of using the M2P and the DJI Action camera in the same video. BTW. After struggling trying to...

    Marco Island, Florida

    I will. Send me an email at [email protected] in case I lose track of this post. Once I get down there, and hopefully fly, I'll let you know.

    I Need Editing Software Purchasing Advice

    I use Adobe Premier Elements and sometimes I use Photoshop CC. The main problem I have is response time. I have a Lenovo laptog with I& processor and 16 GB of RAM. I have to stop all apps running and the response time is still slow. Often when I move the scrubber during edit, I have to wait...

    Mavic Mini vs. Mavic Air

    I don't know enough to judge the mini yet. But as far as weight goes, the 249 grams will allow a US citizen (or anyone) to fly your drone in Canada and Mexico. I just returned from a week in Cancun and had to leave my M2P home because it weighs too much and unless you're a Mexican citizen, you...

    Looking to buy a Mavic 2 Pro but have some questions

    A word of caution. I shoot 4k videos with my M2P and render to 1080P. Then I upload to YouTube. When I try to play, often YouTube will run it at 360P. I always have to select the gear, and select 1080P, Big difference. My son has a Phantom 4 and has had it over a year and I don't think he's...
