    Survey photos with GPS and heading EXIF data

    There it is. I also found the GimbalPitchDegree tag to be useful if my composition was off in a shot, I can look at where it was that time and adjust

    Flying in fog?

    only thing that really accumulated moisture is the arms right below the props. rest of it was as damp as you would expect any hard surface to be if taken into fog. lens had enough water on it to blur out the first shot. solution to that was to fly *** first until I wanted a picture then spin around.

    A testament to its durability

    Only 2 unplanned landings thus far, and can fully attribute both to pure operator error. Both times i did just what NoBiffBetter said ad got a little too adventurous. This isnt a race quad, gotta fly her steady. In both instances I got very lucky and the bird survived. I'm sure in part due to...
