    A new life-changing tool for drone video editing?

    Printing photos from P4P

    Nobody has mentioned viewing distance. That’s very important to know when you’re asking how big you can print. If you stand back far enough you can make it a billboard size print no problem

    Drone reported flying near Christchurch NZ mass shooting crime scene

    The terrorist attack you mean? I'd be VERY surprised if it wasn't. It's being talked about all over the world

    Drone reported flying near Christchurch NZ mass shooting crime scene

    If this actually was a drone, then this guy's a real muppet (I say guy because I'm sure only a guy could be so stupid). Helicopters are working in the area and he's up flying his drone?

    looking for ideas for editing soft ware for my YouTube channel!

    Nearly a disaster. Lesson learned!

    Cheers everyone. As I said, lesson learned. I did it in front of 40 workmates, I'm sure this will come up in conversation in future!

    Nearly a disaster. Lesson learned!

    i went to fly my P4A at work the other day. I mounted the props and pulled upwards on them gently to check they were attached, however when I started the motors one of the props shot into the air to quite a height, then made a graceful landing. I guess I had not engaged the bayonet fully so a...

    Hi from Waikato, New Zealand

    Hi all I’ve been flying a Mavic since February and enjoyed it although less happy with the image quality and intermittent flicker when in 4K so when I had a little oops with the Mavic, even though I think it’s OK I’m still using it as an excuse to upgrade, so just picked up a P4 Advanced plus a...
