Going down the drone rabbit hole quickly. Studying with PI for my Part 107. I live a mile from a USAF training base and 4 miles from a Class D airport with a large boneyard. Just to practice I have to travel 14 miles!
Welcome from Savannah, GA! Yes, it's a rabbit hole. But it's so much fun! lolGoing down the drone rabbit hole quickly. Studying with PI for my Part 107. I live a mile from a USAF training base and 4 miles from a Class D airport with a large boneyard. Just to practice I have to travel 14 miles!
Sounds like you are in West Valley? Me too. In Surprise. How involved is what you need to know to pass for your part 107? Just registered for recreational presently. Thanks.

Your location only shows Arizona, but I am guessing that you live in Tucson, within the Class D Airspace of Davis-Monthan Air Force Base. I retired from the Air Force after 30 plus years and my last duty station was DM… Now, I may be wrong about your location, but all the info is valid for wherever you are (Waldo?)…I live a mile from a USAF training base and 4 miles from a Class D airport with a large boneyard.

Try shooting some short excerpts in 4K and 2.7K and try editing them on your iPad, it probably is not powerful enough for that much data… But if you just try to edit it and even play it, you will find out quickly…I assume I will only be able to view in 1080 but would like the original footage to be in 4K, is that possible? Thanks. Tom

I understand, for now I would be happy to have it recorded in 4K for future editing even if I can only “view” it now in a lower resolution. Any advice on camera settings?Try shooting some short excerpts in 4K and 2.7K and try editing them on your iPad, it probably is not powerful enough for that much data… But if you just try to edit it and even play it, you will find out quickly…
My old computer not only could not edit 4K, it could not even play it with stuttering…
Yes, tons of advice, but since we are discussing cameras, the old adage is true, "Seeing is Believing…" Go to YouTube, You will see your actual drone is use and how to set it specifically. Reading it is not the same a seeing it… Also, even if you cannot edit it nor view it very well, recording it to save it for later is a good idea… To a point, 4K video is a memory hog and your iPad will run out of storage very quickly if you do not install extra storage (MicroSD Card, etc…)…Any advice on camera settings?
