    Hi I know it's not strictly Phantom, but we all run them so it makes sense here.... My question/problem is....I can load a .jpg in GoPro Studio, I can remove the fisheye effect, edit it, whatever I like....BUT....It only lets you save it as a movie file, no option for .jpg, from what I can...

    Pictures from Phantom Vision 2

    I downloaded this today but can't find a way of saving a .jpeg as a .jpeg.....It always wants to save a photo as a movie file....Is this a limitation of the software, or am I doing something wrong? ....Just seems a shame, it lets you correct the fisheye, but then you can't use the file as a...

    Trust me, I didn't expect it to work....like you say DJI quote such and such, but it did/does. ...The wind at the time was around 40 mph, many times I've flown in 20+mph winds....Don't have much choice where I live, lol, it's right on the coast. ...Not saying its brilliant flying in bad winds...

    Maximum wind speed for flying?

    I'm in the same part of the world as you so I know what you mean... ...Basically I don't worry about the wind speed now, the Phantom just seems to love it.
