    GPS lock.... from high-rise... after take off?

    So I know you said you want to do flights from the balcony. As others have said this adds some risks. Just an idea - I've done one job where I flew from a high balcony, but we launched from the ground. Assistant was standing near the drone when I started it and then flew up to the balcony...

    New Inspire 3

    Really looking forward to using one of these. Having RTK and solid flight planning will be a big deal for me. Also the market for 8k screensavers is solid - this will really make that easier. I was so hopeful for a built in nd. Oh well - maybe the I4.

    Naked Mavic 3 mini pro with prop guards

    The DJI cages are quite heavy. I wonder if making those from cf tubes could loose a few grams?

    DJI RC & FLY App 1.9.4 update is it released

    Heads up. My RC Pro updated. Now when flying waypoints if you are in “camera” view you cannot save a flight. The save button only works if you switch the view to the map mode.

    Japanese lower weight batteries

    Hi, Has anyone seen a lighter weight version of the Mini 3 battery as there were for the Mini 2? Doing some searching but haven’t found any yet. Thanks.

    Weight reduction of Mini 2 down to 212g = 4 minutes more air time.

    Where do you start to take off the top and bottom covers? I’m not the best at this kind of thing and would rather not break anything. Thanks.

    Tripod Mode petition

    Signed it. The current Cine mode is such a step backwards from the control of Tripod for the filming I commonly do.

    M3 - snow covered landscape video unfortunately with a lot of color shift

    That’s likely the issue - pretty much no camera can get the white balance of snow in the shade correct - it will always come out towards blue. Snow is also really challenging for any exposure system. Then the WB shifts as your lighting changes giving the footage those color casts. Beautiful...

    M3 - snow covered landscape video unfortunately with a lot of color shift

    Did you manually set the white balance and exposure? They look quite different from sun to shade - might be a factor?

    Use phone with RC Pro ?

    I like the RC Pro but there are some fpv options I can set up with a phone that I can’t do with the built in screen. I’ll just get a second basic controller. Thanks.

    Use phone with RC Pro ?

    If I have an RC Pro remote could I hook up a phone to it and use the Fly app on the phone instead? Or does using a phone require the basic controller? Thanks,

    Green Dot of Death

    In After Effects with “content aware fill” it really isn’t that hard to fix. I regularly remove moving objects from video footage. https://helpx.adobe.com/after-effects/how-to/content-aware-fill-video.html

    Weird Light in Video

    Your example would be easy to mask out in After Effects using the ‘content aware fill‘ effect If desired. Not ideal obviously, but might be handy if you needed to save a clip.

    Need a sample Mavic 3 Cine TXT log

    Oh my gosh. Of course - forgot about Airdata. Installed it on the RC Pro and all the logs were there. Thanks!

    Need a sample Mavic 3 Cine TXT log

    Thanks. Now that I knew what I was looking for on the RC Pro with the Mavic 3 Cine I could find it with the search function. Plugging the RC Pro into a PC I can search for the flight records. One of (there are a bunch) the files is called DJIFlightRecord_2021-12-02_[19-11-29].txt When I try to...
