Hello from Bury, Lancashire

[parkinpants]

Hi,

I've been testing my Mavic Pro for a few days and I'm starting to get to grips with it.

I'm interested in making mountain biking videos as well as the usual scenic shots. I've started a youtube channel here - Bury Drones

A couple of things on my mind at the moment...

1. With my brother's Samsung S8 phone I've had no problems. With my HTC Desire 820 the display sometimes goes "chocky", sometimes half the screen is all blurred out. I'm not sure if this is due to an inferior phone, or if I was getting interference of some kind. Signal strength was good, can pylons cause interference that disturbs the display?

2. I find the gimble control way to sensitive, causing me to make erratic movements. It would be nice to limit the "max speed" of the gimble so that it only does slow and smooth movements. Is my only option to adjust gimble sensitivity settings? Or are there any "modes" that will force it to only do "smooth" panning?

Thanks
Nick

Perfect. I had seen those settings but they looked a bit scary... until I saw that video.
