Alright Gents my first dashware video with the vision pilot app...nothing special but it works great. The addition of a flight log built into the app makes me think it may be my go to app...

Hi Octar,
I originally bought a Tab 4, then I found it doesn't have a compass. So I stole the wife's Tab 2 which has a compass.
When I click it it goes over but comes back as soon as I release the button.
Works fine on my Note 3, but I wanted a bigger screen for fpv.
Cheers

Hi, to speed up the rotation of the wifi orientator and the map, there is one specific sensor needed. We will check.

Thanks for all Dashware video. Does someone know how to get this one:
ok so I am using this app, however on the last two occasions i seem to get broken garbled picture from the app, i then noticed my wifi repeater battery level is down to 10%, however when i went into the standard dji app the picture quality was there and not out to a certain distance before the picture broke up, also there is no indication on this app to show you battery remaining for the wfi booster like the dji app.???
in a future update is it possible to also have the option to auto record say after xxx seconds after engine start, because I tend to take off from the same place again and now i am fast forwarding the video till i get to the interesting bits because the take off scenery is pretty much the same.

It is created by one of the phantom pilot of this forum. Someone still has that gauge?

To see what was happened, you could actually take a look at the exported log file.
You guys are doing well with dashware it looks like. Wont be long and you will be double clicking on the gauges and editing them to your personal liking. Make sure you clone them before making changes just so you also have a fresh copy and then whatever custom version you come up with. I always liked going in and adjust the transparency, changing font types, making the needles or gauge face in a color that stands out better.
I haven't really done it yet, but they say it is much better to save your gauges to green screen and add them in your video editing program while adding in any audio you are going to include. Btw, I brought up the green screen info cause the rendering process is much faster. I have taken over 3hrs many times rendering in dashware. Plus it loads way faster in youtube, they say. There are videos that show how to do it.
Isteigerwalt (Leroy), I watch almost all your test videos. One of them I watched 4 times. That kind of stuff is right up my road. I can tell you have never lost a quad,yet. I hope you never do either, but it may happen if you don't change a few small habits. I noticed one of the main processes you do in your test is to fly out near the end of your reception limit. This is perfect time for me to say your absolutely best friend in this hobby is a gps tracker. I lost two quads doing almost the same thing you are doing which is experimenting. Like a fool I have done this in all the hobbies I have been involved in. Always trying to figure out what nobody else has yet. I'm on quad number 4 now. This is what happens what you tend to get bored in what you're doing. But in this case the sdk situation has opened up another world for us freaks of the hobby.
Anyway, I never heard you mention a gps tracker and in the moments when you said you were nervous, or not so fuzzy feeling is when you would have said something about having a tracker if you had one. Should your quad get lost in the woods where you obviously have no other choice to fly near your house, while searching for it you will tell yourself you'll never again fly without a tracker. Knowing that if you had one you could walk right up to it and not have to be spending days if not weeks searching for something that may not be worth repairing anyway. You will also see just how attached you are to your quad if lost.
Moving on, something you never want to do under any circumstances is when you are near the end of your reception limit, is to manually rotate the rear of the quad away from you. You have already noticed that you do not have as good of reception when the quad is facing you. You must keep the better reception facing you. Regardless of what the quad is suppose to do, because in most cases what it is suppose to do, doesn't happen. Never take your quad for granted. Fly on the defensive side always keeping in your mind it could fail. Also don't forget you are flying apps that are in beta stage. Even the DJI app is in beta stage in my opinion. None of these apps are 100%. And that's why we fly with gps trackers to ease the stress some. The best option for a gps tracker is one that will continue to transmit a signal should the quad crash and the battery ejects as they most always do. I use the Flytrex 3G which does not do what I just mentioned, but it does have it's own flight logger that I use to compare data with any apps flight logger I'm also using. You can never have too much data.

Is the exported log file only in RAW file format? I used your old app last week and had to use that option after forgetting to write the file before power down. And I never was able to find a program to work with the RAW image setup. Maybe you should have the flight logger auto write the file at the moment the motors stop.
