Oh my life that was mad, I didn't think he was going to make it back from there.

UAV WEATHER FORCASTIf you get a good weather app you can look up " winds aloft " it will tell you about the winds higher up... I have seen winds actually go in different direction on the ground vs high in the air...
I always always always check uavforecast.com before I fly any kind of distance. Not only does it give you info on wind speed at a specific altitude, it also tells you the direction of the wind.
Reminds me of a guy a year ago was upset with DJI because his Phantom "fell from the sky".The rule of thumb with Lipos has always been the 80% rule. Stop flying before the battery gets to 20% of its capacity. My question is does DJI calculate this in to its software so that landing at 4% is really 24% of the battery capacity?
Yeah, with the entire video being at 4x speed it makes those turns and camera movements look even worse. Honestly I didn't set out to create a great video, I wasn't even sure I could make it to town. Once I got up there and out about 12000 ft I figured I'd head to town. Thanks for the Vimeo tip also.Great flight.
Two aspects I try to manage are speed of rotation and speed of camera angle. You can dampen the speed that the camera angle responds to your controller which helps a lot. Sadly, there does not seem to be any such dampener for rotation.
Regarding publishing of video - I have been very happy with Vimeo over Youtube. Vimeo offers 1080p with lower compression now and will soon offer 2K. The results are never as good as video from your drive but I think Vimeo has a strong edge over Youtube. With the stunning video that we catch with our P3's, I think they deserve to be posted at highest possible quality. For comparison, you can seem mine at www.vimeo.com/dsprogis.
