    CRASH with Happy Ending and a couple of questions

    you put no effort or understanding into the questions. obviously there was a big impact if the battery was ejected. "a pilot of your great experience" your snark knows no bounds, just amazing the way you go out of your way to treat people like ****

    Camera settings help!

    I think the one of the most important things is to shoot RAW and not JPG. Of course, then using Lightroom or whatever software you want to make the image look better. You can take good photos to extraordinary photos with less than a minute of effort.

    CRASH with Happy Ending and a couple of questions

    Well, I guess that was the question....do I? I probably got a little wet, though tough to know really. It took a big impact and something might have gotten damaged that isn't apparent now? I guess I'll keep a close eye on it. Pass it on to someone? Jesus Christ, that was hardly that intent or...

    CRASH with Happy Ending and a couple of questions

    Welp, five years and literally thousands of flights and finally got the thrill of getting stuck in a tree for the first time. Flying P4P V2 in a Pix4D mission. Was flying at 100' and usually extremely careful and keep everything LOS. Somehow, I managed to fly into a tree while flying...

    Help! Overexposed and bland photos - Phantom 4 Pro.

    I like to have the the over exposure warning on (zebra stripes). I shoot DNG and use the dial, as others have mentioned, to bring the exposure just down enough to remove all (or mostly all) over exposure warnings. Then it is super easy, in Lightroom, to bring up the exposure a tiny bit to get...

    Is DJI care worth the money

    I have been flying drones for 6 years and never bought the insurance and never had a crash. I bought the Mavic 2 Pro last year and decided on a whim, to buy Care Refresh for the first time. I was doing a mapping mission over a couple hundred acres and 1000's of photos. Client wanted flown at...

    Any of you guys use dronebase ?

    Depends on area. Sometimes I wait weeks for a mission and other times they pop up hourly. I've made $30k over the past 24 months with them doing very little work. No complaints.

    TO GOOD TO BE TRUE?!?

    Yes of freaking course it is too good to be true. Shame on anyone so impossibly naive to think they could actually buy from this site. Regardless if there is ultimately a refund from PayPal or not, it is a waste of time and just playing right into the scammer's hands.

    DroneBase is increasingly frustrating to use.

    If clips are approved, they pay $15. How in the world would you make a living out of that regardless of turn around time? I wouldn't waste any time or effort on those ever.

    New Crystal sky ??

    Is this compatible with Ground Station Pro or 3rd party apps? I looked into it about 6 months or so ago, and all the reviews were just so negative, that I just gave up. I would love to have it if it is reliable, rock solid, and can at least do something more than just DJI Go app .I'm constantly...

    Drone stuck in a tall tree

    Mary Carillo's epic badminton rant from the Olympics comes to mind. If you've never seen it, Google it.

    Software for counting the number of animals on game farm using P4P

    10 square miles? There is no solution for this. Zero. Zilch. ....... 1 square mile is 640 acres. You MIGHT find a solution for a half acre. 640? My side is split that I am laughing so hard.
