    Panning/turning Mavic for slow smooth video capture - mid way stutter/pause

    Ah that makes sense, still learning photography settings. This is no doubt why people use filters so they can slow the shutter speed down. I think I'll try a filter next time. Thanks for the tip!

    Panning/turning Mavic for slow smooth video capture - mid way stutter/pause

    Having a similar issue when doing a point of interest where the video is shuddering. I'm using a Nvidia K1 using the onboard screen recorder (normally used for game recording) See example flying over the dome

    Has anyone got video shaking like this?

    For the first time today I tried going into sport mode on the Mavic Pro and noticed severe shaking of the video. I'm using a Nvidia shield K1 for the control tablet. Also using the new low noise props. Normally in non sport mode the video is much smoother. Update, just found out this...

    Splitting the USB-C phone to controller connection.

    I tried doing the same thing. Ended up getting a Nvidia K-1 with HDMI output which works great

    Try it again moving the mavic so that there is nothing too close to the front sensors. Same thing happened to me.

    Poll: IOS or Android?

    I also have the Nvidia shield K1 and have been wanting to record my screen during long flights. Have been using the DU screen recorder app, but that app crashes when I make a video more than 10 mins long. So I'm looking for an alternative. You mentioned the built in App/service "Nvidia...

    Outdoor Mavic signal repeater for flying long range indoors on your big screen display

    Thank you for all the great replies on this. I ended up making a little drone pad on the balcony Purchased an Nvidia K1 which has HDMI output which I feed to my wall mounted computer monitor. Of course my wife is on the balcony spotting so we don't violate any FAA regulations out here...

    Very disappointed with my new Nvidia Shield

    Hello Dr. Droo I also have a Nvidia K1 that I just got and had some problems with the DU recorder crashing before it finished a few min run. I saw your post and uninstalled everything possible except for DJI GO4 and DU Recorder and then it worked for me. Thank you for that post! Later...

    Very disappointed with my new Nvidia Shield

    I also have a Nvidia Shield K1 with DU Recorder which kept after a few mins record would frustratingly abort the recording. Appreciate your post as I also disabled after reading uninstalled all unnecessary apps and then disabled all the Google apps. That solved the problem. THANK YOU!
