    Using a variable ND filter

    variable ND filters are not good to use, they have all kinds of issues, best to use solid NDs. Alan

    Dilema - Litchi or Autopilot as of Dec 2015

    The apps let you gain control back, just switch the switch on the controller. I have several, they all work pretty well. I think AFL Autopilot is superb, and I think Litichie will get there eventually but right now Autopilot has more features. Alan

    Well I ended up purchasing the app while the sale was on, so thanks for that. I did like it during beta testing and it seems to work well. Now to do some more complex flights. Alan

    Airnest v Dji go

    Airnest works, but as noted does not replace the Go app. I wish it could switch the point of interest during the flight, instead of having it just look at one point. I also wish there was an option to not RTH if you so desire, but that is minor. It works well and is easy to use. Fpv mission...

    The DJI log is not used when you switch to a third party app. It stops being recorded. When you switch back the GO app it continues. many third party apps have their own logs, and this one charges you extra for that ability. (not a value judgement but pointing that out.)

    Your warranty does not apply if you use a third party app. warranty is only while using Go app. Alan

    Mission Planner (FPV Camera – iOS Waypoints App) Available Now

    Actually I don't care what you think and it was not directed at you. The knee jerk reactions get tiring. I do run a business so I do have a clue. The initial price is misleading at $9. The real basic cost for a usable app is $34 and then there are a lot of things are going to added to bring it...

    Mission Planner (FPV Camera – iOS Waypoints App) Available Now

    Thanks but the info on pricing only shows up if you are on an apple product and I am not unless I am using the quad. I did check it out there. I find it is a bit way too high priced. There are some nice features but I think you are pricing yourself out of the market. I know you are pushing the...

    Mission Planner (FPV Camera – iOS Waypoints App) Available Now

    So what will be the cost of the different parts of the app? I am not ever interested in a subscription model, so that is not an option. So how much to buy all the options? Your link goes the Hong Kong version of itunes and the app prices are not revealed. Alan

    iPad Air 2

    I started with Air2, and inspire holder, love it. Works great. I use a PadHat for the sun shield and have not had a problem with it. I also use the short cord mentioned no problems with glitches. I love having the larger image. Alan

    Can Airnest replace the Go app?

    Well as a beta tester it will not start video recrding and you will get an error message stating that the mode is not supported if you turn on video recording before entering the app. I have a P3A, and this is the only app I see the message in. It has some nice features but at this time does not...
