I have a rather unique job this weekend shooting a couple of controlled burns and I‘m looking for advice on some settings.

Obviously there will be changing light conditions between clouds and flying in and out of trees and smoke. (Yes, I’ll have insurance.....). I am curious about White Balance settings (auto vs not) as well as anything else you all recommend.

Wondering what folks recommend for camera settings. I am looking to do mostly hand flying, but would be happy to hear any auto shots people recommend. Also wondering how much to automate shutter/aperture given all the other stuff that might be going on—never done a shot like this before... The one thing I know is that there won’t be any do-overs...
