    Singapore Drones NYE Celebrations

    This morning I watched the Singapore NYE celebrations on YouTube. Just prior to midnight, 500+ drones were launched and programmed to perform some amazing aerial displays, including the countdown to midnight while displaying a Roman numeral clock with minute and second hands sweeping through to...

    Updating Version 1.00.0530 Mavic 2 Pro

    I updated M2Z and smart controller a couple of days ago using 100 Mbps WiFi in my house. No problems at all. Worked perfectly first time. The M2Z took about 10 mins and the controller about the same. However, I was on hand to stop the SC from going into sleep mode during the SC upgrade.

    Adelaide

    I’ve got some great video along the Victor Harbour coast from Hayborough Beach, out to Wright Island and the Bluff and through to King’s Beach. The coastline is spectacular, especially on a fine day.

    What are your thoughts about the new DJI #SmartController that listed a steep $649.00 dollars? #

    I’ve had my SC for only a short time, but I love the ease of use and the brightness of the screen. The ergonomics are very good. Getting into the air is so much faster and now I don’t have to worry about the iPhone or iPad losing battery power. The SC will run for 2.5 hrs on a full charge. The...

    Smart Controller

    The SC was out of stock in Australia until last week. I ordered mine last Tuesday and it arrived in Oz on Friday. Love it!

    Formatting Micro SD card in the Smart Controller - Help?

    I have just purchased a Smart Controller for my Mavic 2 but cannot work out how to format a micro SD card in the controller. Can anyone help me? I have downloaded and read through the SC manual but was not able to find anything on formatting a SD card. I have also looked through the menus...

    Positano, Amalfi & Ravello: Italy's amazing coast

    Spectacular scenery! The reverse flight from the ruins was brilliant. It shows how drone footage can really enhance your perspective of a place and create amazing memories you would otherwise not have seen from the ground. Well done. Great video.

    Sun Hol's abuse of the 'Drone Code' with a DJI Drone!

    Have you thought of contacting your breakfast programmes to see if they will take it up for you and air your concerns to the whole of the UK? This would be very bad press for Sun Hols and they would likely take down the Ad.

    Looking for feedback on real estate video

    Good effort. RTKD suggested using a DSLR in addition to your drone footage. You might also want to consider getting an Osmo Pocket. This new toy is extremely portable and provides lovely smooth video, even when walking with it. It would help your transitions from outside of the house (drone...

    M2Z Cases

    Just ordered the Lowepro backpack myself. I bought this to hold all the extra bits and pieces that I have for the M2 and also an iPad in the one easily usable backpack. Looking forward to its arrival in the next few days.

    From Authentication to Destruction in less than 6 Hours!!

    I’m with you on the size of the icons on my iPhone. The icons do seem rather small and I’m thinking about getting a mount for my iPad Pro, but I can’t decide which is the best one to get. I see more research in my future!

    From Authentication to Destruction in less than 6 Hours!!

    I am a newbie and made a newbie mistake and to be honest, I don’t know the answer to your question. I had powered down my RC as well as the drone when I changed the battery. I’m not sure if that makes a difference to the settings. It was my assumption that APAS wasn’t activated when I crashed...
