Hello; I’m going to video neighborhood amenities such as flying over tennis courts, pools, and recreation areas. Can someone tell me how to target something like a tennis court, and have the gimbal stay on the court as the drone approaches it and flies over? Will a waypoint accomplish this? I’m...

Thanks so much!

Does anyone know of a GPS tracking device I can put on my Mavic pro? It seems as though if you crash land, the screen goes dark when using The DJI app.

Has anyone renewed their license yet? Any good resources for study? I hear the renewal test is easier and shorter in that there are no question about weather and reading the outdated “ticker tap” weather code.

Thanks I’ll try that

I went up yesterday and a warning message came up on the DJI Go app. I was in the desert and the button that I was to press to acknowledge the recreation area didn’t do a thing. So rather than fly with an obstructed view, I used the Litchi app. Any input as to how to enable me to get the...

What’s really concerning is the use of facial recognition. The airlines are starting to use it for check ins and soon will proliferate social media. What little we have left of privacy will soon be gone. Ironically we have done this to ourselves; and most are ignorant and jaded of the consequences.

Does the reflective surface of the water affect the video connection?

Here is a calculator to determine your Fov Camera Field of View Calculator (FOV)

I merged 3 RAW files, and converted to Jpg in order to post. Again, you have to shoot the way you wish to. Most photographers believe that bracketing 7 exposure values is uncalled for. To each your own. I don’t respond to threads to argue or debate but rather to share information based on my...

Yes and you can't tell the difference among the 3, which was one of my points in that HDR is often not necessary for outdoor shots. Again, I don't care how great the HDR processor is, when you take 3 shots from a drone there is going to be movement from shot to shot, and this movement is not in...

Why? Because the clarity is much better from a drone with regards the movement between the three shots is enough to make the detail fuzzy because ALL post processors are not 100% full proof when stacking images and each image will vary a tad. Secondly you probably notices no significant...

The first was bracketed in the camera, the second was bracketed in post-processing and the third was the single shot. I'm in sunny AZ where your cell phone shuts off after flying your drone for 5 minutes during the summer. I have to bring frozen gel packs and hold them against the phone to keep...

Bingo you got it! I took the photo with an exposure value of 0 and created 2 copies one at +2 EV and the other at -2 EV then merged them. Good eye!

Yes please
