Hello all
Whilst the Mavic 2 now has trackable POI, the Mavic Pro doesn't, which makes POI for very large views difficult. I've been seeing more and more drone videos where the operator is just flying in a straight line or with jerky turns, but it's pretty easy to adjust the direction and rotate the drone or adjust the gimbal at the same time, which gives way more interesting and dynamic video.
So, using some pretty nice footage from my recent trip to Positano and the Amalfi Coast in Italy, I go through the basics of dynamic flying and gimbal control to more interesting video. As ever, hope it helps....

Cheers
Ian

 
Nice and usefull video as usual...just one point..Can you speak a little bit slowly for non native english viewers?..;)
Apologies! I got told I was speaking too slowly in one video and had a lot to say in this one! Will remember to keep things clear and a bit slower Thumbswayup

Thanks for sharing I am very new to drone and video. Very interesting and beautiful footage.
 
Great information! Love the West Highland White Terrier in the background, wonderful little dogs.
Ted makes editing all the more fun...... (check out 6:20 - 6: 28 on the video!) :D
