    Drowned Mavic Flies Again!

    So last week I was at the lake and was videoing some friends wakefoiling behind a jet ski. We were a rider short - I would usually have someone spotting when doing this but I figured "what could possibly go wrong?". I was port side, flying sideways. We were the only people in the area and I was...

    Mavik water crash

    While cruising a lake shore to establish a passing shot of a lake property, my advanced collision warning System started beeping, simultaneously, as I watched the drone on my controller hit and tumble through a tree. My last position on the flight log suggested that I had actually landed on the...

    Mavic Disappeared Mid-Flight

    Earlier today I was flying my Mavic at a beach in Mexico. Everything was excellent, 14 satellites, 54% battery, clear video transmission. I was moving it slightly horizontally, but far from any obstacles. All of a sudden, I got "Aircraft disconnected" on the display, and the prompt about...

    Woke up early and took the drone out to the lake. Fog was lifting off the water when I arrived. Located in Westerville, Ohio.

    Drone crashed in the Hudson River after battery died

    I flew my drone approximately 21,000 feet across the Hudson and received a warning that I needed to return home immediately so as to have enough battery life to make it back. My battery was at 40% and I spent at least another minute flying around the shoreline before returning. Long story short...

    Loss connection then plummeted into river

    So I was flying my mavic on a pretty routine flight. Just getting a sunset shot over the confluence of the Columbia and Willamette rivers when about 6 minutes into the flight I got a connection error. I tried to reconnect and the Android app crashed, then I restarted the app and it could only...

    Diagnosing black camera feed after crash & short circuit

    This is a long story but here it goes. I was flying the mavic pro over a quarry that has water in it. I was actually flying without my phone connected since it had been stolen a couple of days before, but didn't want to miss out on flying at this great place and recording. As I was flying the...

    A little video I did in Lake Powell, near the Bullfrog Marina.

    I must say, it was more difficult landing on the boat than I initially thought with obstacle avoidance turned on. It was a bit unnerving at first, but I got used to taking off and manually landing on a platform 2' by 2'. And obviously, return to home doesn't work when the boat is constantly...

    Altrhein birdseye view 2,7k superior with Mavic

    After going through all this mess with the Mavics 4K issues, I've finally found a good workflow: 1. It starts with filming in 2.7K, ISO100, 60-120fps using an ND16 filter, sharpness +1 contrast -1, saturation -1, color profile ART. 2. I've colorgraded the footage using mLUT from motionvfx...

    Hi from Glasgow, Scotland. And first question....

    Hi all I'm a new Mavic Pro owner from near Glasgow in Scotland. I got it last week and have had circa 20 flights now; really enjoying it. I have previously built and flown fixed wing R/C aircraft and I'm loving the ability of just letting it hover if I want a few seconds break! I bought it...

    Water levels in NC

    Shot some footage here a few weeks ago then we had some really heavy rain here lately. Returned to the location and was surprised. The footage with the boat unfortunately I forgot my memory card so that footage was from cache memory.
