    Sailing Camp Clearwater Florida

    Great Drone Launch spots in Tampa Bay.

    Having so much water to fly over in Tampa Bay sets us up for some incredible pictures and video. I hope we can use this thread to share some of our local favorite spots. Where do you fly? Two of my favorites right now are the Dunedin Causeway and Sand Key just south of Clearwater Beach. Here...

    Great suggestions so far... I'm looking at these ND Polarzing filters after the suggestions here. Mavic Air 2 Filter

    Flying in full sunlight at high noon in Florida with no clouds, over water.

    I end up flying my Air2 often near the water on very sunny days. Even with my iPhone at maximum brightness, I still have a ton of difficulty seeing my screen. I'm curious if anyone can recommend a specific hood they use to shade their phone when attached to the controller. I'm also playing...

    Frustrated with 8k Hyperlapse

    Thanks All for the Great feedback! I really wanted the 8k Hyperlapse to be able to produce content in 4K But based on the above posts making my own 4K hyperlapse from RAW seems to be the better option for a better quality 4k result. Not as push button as I would like but I'm going back out...

    Frustrated with 8k Hyperlapse

    8K Hyperlapse grey squares

    I found that you can playback 8K hyperlapse video on the mac with sPlayer from the App Store. It is a free to use app and it plays the hyperlapse video without the greybars.

    How to record audio on mini mavic?

    Since there is no mic on the mini and prop noise is an issue, I simultaneously take video with another cell phone and do a Multicam sync in Final Cut Pro. It takes a bit off effort but works fine for me.

    Buying a mini? Some thoughts . . .

    Thanks to the pointer to Ebay - I bought an extra battery there (For the price of two on the DJI store). I'm also learning to look at local stores for instock accessories since the DJI store does not ship for 10-15 days after they receive your payment!

    Buying a mini? Some thoughts . . .

    i got a great Christmas present this year, a Mavic minI! it truly is an amazing drone at this price point. If you are in the market to buy this drone I have one piece of advise. GET THE FLYMORE COMBO! For the additional price of two batteries you get two additional batteries and a bunch of...
