Update: I am using DaVinci Resolve in the past 6 months and it is definitely the best editing and color grading software I have used so far. The free version is perfect. BUT you need a serious hardware to get it going smoothly :( I bought a new PC for this purpose.

I would like to post here my first sunset video shot with MA2 over very famous Bulgarian stone hoodoos formation, called Stob Pyramids. Part of the video was shot in ISO 200, otherwise ISO 100, 4K, 60 fps, 1/120 speed. Color grading in DaVinci Resolve 16. I hope you will enjoy it.

I observe that increasing the ISO (>400) drastically degrades 4K footage quality, which is mostly visible when there are trees in the footage. Of course you will ask why the heck I needed to shoot trees in daylight in ISO settings above 400 and rightly so. It was a particular situation - my 4...

Nope. I don't use the sport mode. :)

I did a manual flight, doing an orbit. And because I focused mostly on video recording and was flying without direct visual contact, I ended up hitting the rock :)

I am editing the videos with Filmora9, the free edition. It really does amazing job and is not very hardware demanding. The workflow is very intuitive, too.

I am wondering whether having propeller guard could have minimized the damage and actually saved the drone from loosing balance?

Some weeks ago I posted a thread here about my damaged propellers and whether it is urgent to change them. At the time I was not able to explain what has caused the damage, but when I started to edit the video from the same day, I saw that actually I have crashed sideways into a rock, while I...

I use Filmora and I am quite happy with it. It runs smoothly even on laptops with limited resources and the final result is very nice. The editing is not complicated, import and export of files is without too much hassle as is for example with Adobe Premiere. One big minus - the Pro version...

Regarding the price of props they are 30$ for 4 pcs. in Bulgaria,

I am no sure how they got so damaged. I was filming some ancient burial niches dug in the rocks (I will post the video soon), while standing above them and tried to get a low angle shots, so possible i have struck some high branches from the trees below, but nothing can be seen on the video if...

Already changed them. After such strong arguments from most of the pilots who answered me. THX!

Thank you all for the comments. I am not willing to risk my drone of course, or doing harm to people or property. I can live with the cost of new props at least if I don't have to change them every two weeks :) I was just wondering in case I am on a long trip in the wild and run out of spare...

Hi, I am wondering how long I can fly safely with propellers, which tips are a bit damaged. I didn't observe any issues during flight, the drone is responding normally, batteries are not depleted faster than normal, footage is smooth. I don't have any objective signs of issues, but still I am...

Impressive riding, filming and editing. The soundtrack matches perfectly.
