    School me on current iPads

    Hey all - been flying for years on an iPad Mini 2, and aside from being a bit hard to see due to glare/brightness, it's served me well. Last several flights I've been getting "Mobile Device CPU overloaded" and terrible performance; I'm currently resetting it in hopes of it working better. To...

    Question on HDR pano workflow

    Hey all - been doing HDR photos with my P3Ps/P4A for a while now. Had fun fooling around with some panos and would like to do it seriously. I've found some tutorials for HDR panos but they seem to deal with AEB rather than using RAW/DNG, which just seems like the no-brainer way to do this...

    Can't pair P3P RC to P4A

    Thanks for the input, all - it appears my quest is in vain. Flew her stock last night and just had a blast busting around the neighborhood at 40 MPH - fantastic machine!

    Can't pair P3P RC to P4A

    Hmm...now I've got to check. Might well have been a P4. I do know the Advanced is not dual band like the Pro - so I figured there was a chance!

    Can't pair P3P RC to P4A

    Hey all - just got a new P4A and it's simply incredible. Would love to use one of my P3P remotes that has the DBS02 panel antenna as I've seen that a lot of people have been able to pair this combo successfully. I go through the pairing process but it eventually times out; when I re-pair the P4...

    Do I want P4A or...?

    Thanks all! Started with a P3A and had ordered a P3P gimbal/cam within a month - just wanted to be sure I got the right thing off the bat this time. Really looking forward!!

    Do I want P4A or...?

    Hey all - GF just told me she ordered me a P4A today!! Hasn't shipped yet and she said if I want something different it's not too late. I have two P3Ps and shoot a lot of real estate. As far as I can see, the major difference is in the 2.4/5.8 connection and some proximity sensors; am I right...

    Broken cable - solder or replace?

    Many thanks, guys - turns out my pin connector was damaged (hard to tell at first) - took it to my local shop and they were able to do it all for $75. I was going to give it a shot but of course they had a horror story that if I did it backwards, or if it didn't stay in, I could fry the...

    Broken cable - solder or replace?

    Hey all - RTH auto-initiated and she raised up right into a power line. This isn't my pic but it looks the same, both P3P: I've got another set of cables on the way; am I OK to cut the new cable and solder/heatshrink or is it better to replace the whole cable? I'm having a hard time finding...

    P3P in low light vs Mavic - two videos that make me scratch my head

    Birds, thanks so much - I'm using Davinci Resolve and have never really learned how to use the vector scopes; always relied on the histogram and my eyes. It's time for me to step it up - thanks very much for the inspiration here.

    P3P in low light vs Mavic - two videos that make me scratch my head

    Hey all - was fortunate to be directly in the middle of the eclipse path on Monday. Got some good footage but was *very* disappointed in how grainy my video of totality (similar light levels to maybe 10 minutes after sunset normally) - I had it on 800 ISO, 30 fps, and still *really* grainy...

    Pulling my hair out over high ISO/grainy night shots - really love your input

    Anybody? This is really driving me nuts :/

    Pulling my hair out over high ISO/grainy night shots - really love your input

    Hey all - long story short, I'm using a P3P, and I've shot some dusk stuff at ISO 1600 before with great results, such as the second shot of this video: Shot video of the eclipse yesterday since I was lucky enough to be smack in the middle of it. Was on ISO 800, and the footage was...
