Pretty much the title. I've been testing the feasibility of running the mavic in one car window and out the other for a shoot.
Here's what I've learned so far testing it out in my beater work truck. (one successful run and and bad one)
1. Downward visual positioning off
- way too much variance
2. Stop motor method to CSC Maneuver
- I don't want the mavic to recover, I want it to drop if I catch something.
3. Order prop guards
--I'm worried about the extra width, but it would probably be worse to rip apart the headliner or seats of the picture car.
4. No wind
-Mavic corrects late and unpredictably. I really wish the mavic had attitude mode
I don't know, obviously the mavic wasn't built for these kind of technical shots. Although those propeller cages might be make these shots more than feasible.
Any ideas on settings, modes that might make this easier? I'm confident in my flying ability but I'm worried about the mavic correcting itself into the car. I'm going to try out Tripod mode but I'm worried about having a sluggish response.
