Try OpenShot. I've used the major paid and free editors for many years, and for "safe and easy", this totally free, open source newcomer is IMO the best!

See my post of Nov 15, 2020. The no fly zone is really by the FAA, related to air and sea operations removing a grounded car carrier ship. tom29928.

I use cyberlink powerdirector 365 on my pc. it's expensive and way more sophisticated than i need, but its the best I've found for my needs. i just discovered powerdirector has an android app, and it is actually much better for me. I edited and spliced eight videos into one with transitions (on...

Greetings from Hilton Head!

I'm going to Maui in March, and I plan to get a mini 2 to take along. I have a MA2, but I want something smaller (and cheaper, if lost at sea). I will be on a whale watch boat (70 ft catamaran) some days, and I plan to practice hand catching for that activity. I've seen some maui whale drone...

Very helpful. Thanks. I watched the whole 30 minutes.

I did care refresh in September for my MA2. I did have some trouble getting the claim started on my pc, and finally found this number DJI phone 818-235-0789. As soon as I talked to them, it was excellent. I paid $69, got the return shipping label instantly, and got a new MA2 as soon as they...

I had "lots" of experience with my MA1 before I got my MA2. I crashed the MA2 because I have a backyard like yours (trees, water, etc) and I did not study the MA2 manual beyond the basics. So my advice is to study the MA2 crash reports (including mine) on this forum, and train yourself to...

The sign that I photographed and posted had a notice on its back that identified it as an official sign with penalties for tampering with it, and with a hologram type of seal on the notice.

I visited St Simons Island, GA yesterday and noticed the attached signs on the town dock. One picture shows the capsized ship "Golden Ray" in the channel off the dock. This car transport ship (holds 7000 cars) capsized last year and is now being sawn in pieces and removed.

I used Care Refresh for my MA2 on Sept 17. I had problems filing my own claim on the dji website, and found no help, contact info, etc. I did find an independent repair shop on the dji site (for out of warranty repairs, I think), and I called them. They gave me a direct number for dji...

Being old and forgetful, I'm building an 8.5 x 11 paper crib sheet for flying my MA2 with CS (see attached). I fold it in quarters and keep it with the SC. I do the pre-flight then turn the sheet over to "basic flight" prior to takeoff. I'll probably list some short-cut camera settings on the...

my issue date was aug 27, and the plastic card arrived in the mail oct 6. I think my number was posted around oct 1.

I discovered this today - tap the battery level icon at the top of the sc screen, and it displays time until RTH, until Forced Landing, and until Battery Depleted. The pop-up display stays on the screen and updates. Tap it to hide it. I love it!

Good idea! I'll do that test separately. Thanks.
