Even better, why not fly from underneath some form of shade yourself. Best of all, and no sunburn either!
Visibility, usually. I like to be out in the open where I can spin 360 degrees, see the sky all around and see what's coming from all directions !
Fair enough, but unless it is a bird, you'll usually hear it long before it becomes a problem. I find open canopies provide the best shade where I am flying out in front of myself. If necessary, you can even just temporarily step out from under it for landing or a better view.
I appreciate what you're saying, but I live in the UK, where excessive sunshine is rarely a problem ! TBH even that sunshield I bought gets far more use protecting sticks when packed away than it does make a massive difference to sunlight hitting the screen ! The old peaked baseball cap does a lovely job keeping what there is out of my eyes at the expense of restricting upwards view a tiny bit.
Same here. Even in sunnier climates, best lighting for video and photography is during the golden hour and just after sunset, where overhead sunlight is nonexistent. I rarely ever fly in the middle of the day, although commercial fliers may have to.
I too am concerned about reducing screen sensitivity as it's poor now, compared to my phone and iPad.
I’ve tried it. Seems to have reduced the sensitivity, reduces brightness too, I used it for about 4 flights and removed it.
That's been my experience as well. Marginal benefit at a great sacrifice to functionality.
I don’t have the RC2 controller, I sometimes use my Samsung tablet with my Air2. My problem was horrible reflection off my screen. I’ve NEVER used any kind of screen protector, on any device, that you have to put directly ON a screen. But I finally decided to try one.
How about creating your own shade, like under a golf umbrella or something similar. Even golfers bring along their own shade.
