    3 Summit - A Drone Experience

    Just don't trust "auto", select the highest quality your monitor supports. Sometimes auto will just give you 480 or 720, but when I select 4K on your video its perfect, clear, crisp.

    3 Summit - A Drone Experience

    Beautiful. Definitely need to watch on youtube full screen and make sure you select 4K (if you have a 4k monitor) and not let youtube select auto. If you don't have 4K, needs to be watched on 4K TV with youtube app.

    How do you deal with angry people who hate drones while you're flying?

    I wear a lanyard with my credentials. Be surprised how many people see you in a lanyard and move on. On my lanyard have three clear vinal card holders: 1. 107 card front / Drone Registration back 2. Trust card front / Part 107 recurrent certificate back (since original has expired) 3. Second...

    DJI Drone Noise Comparison: Air 3S vs Flip vs Neo

    Kind of what you'd expect with the differences, but pretty stark when listening to them one after the other.

    Store Air 3S with props on or off?

    Absolutely second this recommendation. this type of prop guard is solid and doesn't compress the props unlike some other wrap around or DYI option. You can can actually grab the motor mount with these prop guards on and turn the motor left and right and verify the props are secure and...

    Am I Crazy

    I had my Air2S and Air 3, and expected to use both, but honestly after flying the Air 3 I found it better to fly and couldn't go back to the 2s. Going form nearly 25 minutes to 45 minutes of flight time was a great, lets not forget about those side sensors which may save your drone on your next...

    DJI Air3's Lowest-Resolution Video Format?

    Since a good 128GB card would only cost about $14 on Amazon I would have to imagine with the free shipping it would be a wash on the cost. While I usually share anything I get at 1080p, I like recording at 4K so I can crop or pan and still keep final resolution at a clean 1080p.

    DJI Air3's Lowest-Resolution Video Format?

    Just curious, did you ever get the a new, good card and it is working for you now?

    DJI Air3's Lowest-Resolution Video Format?

    I had a similar issue with an older SD card. It was V30 U3, but no A rating which meant it was A1. A 128GB U3 V30 A2 card is around $15 on Amazon. Get an A2 card and you'll be all set.

    Advice on how best to use classified Forum to sell Drone

    I laid my drone out with every accessory, case, etc. and labeled. Even had the lights on. Posted here, but also posted in the local facebook drone groups and got a hit within a week. Many police stations let you meet there for purchase transactions, craigslist, FB marketplace, etc. So we...

    Trying to order a few new Air3 batteries

    I did the same thing last year and got 3 batteries for my 2S. All were under 10 cycles and worked great.

    Prop Guards: How Do We Feel About Them?

    Joining the conversation late, but I would get them. If you are ever flying indoors, which is not just house, maybe you're flying in a parking structure, an event center, a convention center (after hours/before hours when there are no people). In all these cases having the prop guards is very...

    The Terminal Velocity of a Falling Mavic 2

    Visiting this thread 2.5 years late, but wondering why no one has dropped a dead one (with props that still spin) out of a helicopter to verify the math here. Even if tumbles and does auto-rotate, seems like props would add additional resistance. Also of course why its falling. Just power off...

    DJI RC Track... Look what's coming with the Air 3S!

    Love to see how it handles a turn at a distance, for instance turn around a building where suddenly a tree or building are in the path. Assuming obstacle avoidance will help there. Also, if using the beacon allows you to follow at the full speed of the drone.
