Rosedale? Nice. I'm near Castle Howard. Off-topic, but I still hven't managed to cycle up Chimney Bank - my real reason for being on this thread is moire!

I found its orientation by looking through it, then marked it, and fitted it to the lens, after the Mavic had started up, and the Gimbal had done its little dance. That will give a perfect result, won't it?

OK, so it's the darkening effect I'm NOT get with a straightforward PL. I get it. An ND/PL filter is not something I'd heard of, thank you V much. Good idea. Sc

Hi, From stills photography, I've got into the habit of using a polarizing filter, all the time. Will this have the additional effect of acting as an ND filter, of maybe 16 or 32? Thanks, SC

Thanks for that. I'm in the UK. Yup, zoom & 360deg motion precludes the Mavic for sure - but not always necessary. I have a second controller for the Mavic. Mainly for the client to help direct me, but it could be used for camera control. Does anybody use teh Mavic commercially?

Hi, I'd be really interested to hear what commercial (paid) work other members are using their Mavic Pros for? My next question is, what determines the step up to an Inspire? Where does the performance of the Mavic, as a camera and a flight platform begin to deteriorate? Two questions there...

Interesting. Glad I'm not alone. I think it's a Litch Desktop issue - I flew the a similar mission created on my iPad, and it worked fine. This is what Litchi said... "In some cases yes the satellite data is wrong or can be offset a bit from reality. If the drone points towards the POI in the...

Hi, I use an iPad 4 Mini as my main controller sceen, but I want a second controller so clients can see what's going on. I don't want such an expensive screen - what's reliable by cheap? Thanks, SC

Hi, I want to give a clint a view of what the Mavic is seeing, without him having to lean over my shoulder. Short of giving him some DJI Goggles, is there a cheaper alternative using a second Android or iOS tablet? Thanks, SC

Anyone?

Had a problem this morning. Set the POI, as per screenshot, in green, but actually Litchi used a different building as the POI, in red. Not sure what I’ve done wrong. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks. Mission Mission Settings

Hi Ian, Thanks for the encouragement. I'm pretty new to this, but the plethora of seemingly unexplained 'lost drone' incidents, leads me to be ultra-cautious, and try and exclude anything that might cause problem!

Thanks. So... Remote Controller then Drone, and the app just kicks in whenever you switch it on, and it doesn't matter when. Yes?

Morning (6.30am, here). Thanks for your swift reply - again! I only posted that, as THAT was the order I was doing things, until I revisited the manual! Page 56, Point 2, at the bottom of the page says, "Turn on the remote controller and your mobile device, then turn on the Intelligent Flight...

Hi, Before taking off, in which order should I switch things on? I use an Apple iPad. Thanks, SC
