    ? About Assigning Buttons

    I prefer the left button to move the gimbal full up or down or center and the right for cruise. Camera is easy enough to use on the right side of the display. It’s not something I would do mid video anyhow.

    Remote ID - in the EU?

    Ask around, 99% (maybe more) of the world has no idea what remote ID is and the chances of it being a real issue for anyone is slim. If you operate reasonably, without directly aggravating people, most will not care at all that you’re even around. With a mini, you barely even hear it right above...

    Mavic 3 Filter Use

    You want to bracket this shot so you expose for the highlights and shadows in one final shot. With the Mavic 3 variable aperture, you can almost get away with never using ND filters but they can be handy when you want to be more artistic.

    Buying Avata 2 vs using my Air 3 in FPV Questions

    Not to mention protecting the environment around the drone. Avata will hardly make a mark, hit something with the Air 3 and it will likely cause some damage. Not something you want if the purpose is commercial work. It happens but you want to avoid it.

    Air 2 First flight after a long break (it's my newborn daughter's fault! JK) - Zegrze Południowe, Poland.

    Everyone is free to express creativity in their own way but my preference is to avoid obvious transitions unless it’s somehow part of the scene. Day to night, inside to outside, things like that where you want to see both at the same time for a short period. Otherwise, jump cut.

    Buying Avata 2 vs using my Air 3 in FPV Questions

    The main difference in the two is that the Air 3 is a camera drone and the Avata is an FPV drone. Two different categories of drones. With the exposed props and dependence on GPS, the Air 3 will be fine out in the open but the closer you get to objects and especially indoors the worse it’s going...

    Air 3 Tornado Approaching Hendersonville, TN

    Great photos and glad you guys made it though ok. We didn’t see much from the storm here in west TN but followed along as news came this way about you guys. Always hate to hear towns in the area being destroyed by storms and they seem to be getting more powerful/common over time.

    DJI, Apple and Android

    I read it as 3rd party apps. Meaning, the API they offer to tap into the DJI logic will only be supported on Android. I dont think it means they are stopping the iOS Fly App which is 1st party.

    Freewell ND Filter Test with Hyperlapse

    You guys should try it. If you shoot moving vehicles at night with an ND filter, you can get a slow enough shutter to control the light trails for the passing cars. ND filters are usable at night and should be experimented with. Here is just one example from dronexfactor. I know this is a...

    ADS-B on M3

    Not all planes are required to broadcast ADS-B, especially small private planes. The best option is to do the best you can with awareness of the area. Side note, the Mini 3 Pro does not have ADS-B either but they are flown all the time without issue.

    Airmap Gone

    I have not needed to submit much lately but AutoPylot is what I am using now.

    Mav3 and Mini 3 can now fly FPV

    By Integra versions you mean to say Goggles 2 and Integra. The larger V2 is a no go. You need the motion controller 2 as well.

    the AIR 3 here we go again

    It will be nice but having used the RC and RC Pro, I can't see myself going back to a remote that needs me to use my phone or a tablet.

    Why do I want to get a 107 cert?

    The biggest advantage for someone that is not doing regular commercial work is to whip out the license when someone of authority asks why you’re doing something. Well, I have a license that says I know what I’m doing. You get a bit more credit that way compared to a TRUST certificate.

    R.I.D. Spoofing and is it legal?

    Basically. Rules come from issues many times. If someone is spoofing a real physical thing but there is nothing real in reality is there a rule for that so punishment can be applied. If not, is it illegal to appear to be something. I’m not in defense of the idea, I think it’s dumb and hope it’s...
