Hi Fellow Mavic Pilots! Im new to the drone game having just recieved a Mini from my wife at Xmas. I realise its a very limited model given its age but im having great fun with it. Im already planning my upgrade next year Nice to find a forum like this to share experiences and photo/video. Anyone else here based in Norway?
Cheers!
Simon

Here is my first recording effort close to home when panning the drone around it seems very "jumpy" in the finished video. Normal for this model? Im waiting for my Sandisk pro. This is saved onto an ultra at low res which maybe explains it?

Yes, that looks like the low-res cached video from your phone. The video saved to the SD card would be much better.

Welcome to the forum from the dry lakeless hills of Lake City FL. An irony... I know. If lakes grew here as much as your knowledge will, Lake City would become an ocean.

Welcome again!

Those are some amazing trees with the snow on them!!
I would recommend Sandisk extreme.
Also, which video editor are you using?

Thanks for the input! I used the editing program inside the DJI fly app. Didnt find it immediately intuitive. Any recommendations for alternatives?

Me again Less than optimal flying weather thanks to alot of low cloud/fog today but in my desperation to practise/play I went flying anyway - always keeping the drone in view. When it returned I noticed alot of condensation on the drone especially on the propeller props. Didn't seem to effect the flying abilities. I assume it's built to withstand some humidity just not a full submersion. Am I right?
Does a drone exist that can fly and fully submerge into water?!
