    DJI GO

    I've not yet updated to "DJI Go" on my iPad. Any reason I should not? Frankly, I like (d) the DJI Pilot App. Also like(d) the name better. "Pilot" is more cool than "Go" ;) I usually update quickly - but after the many issues with the update from 1.1.9 I held back a while. But it might be...

    They can touch the lens but I can't imagine that there is a chance of them damaging the lens. The filters are made of a flexible and light-weight material.

    I'm upgrading to a Phantom 3 standard

    I would absolutely go for the Phantom 3 Professional or Advanced. The Standard is more of a Phantom 2.5. Not a bad quadcopter at all, but the fact that the "Real" Phantom 3s use Inspire-style remote WITH lightbridge is a huge bonus. Also, the fact that the P3 Pro/Adv. have GLONAS-support is...

    Battery error midflight = ahhhh!

    Any idea what made your battery go bad? Approximately how many charges did it have? Had it been used in a particular way that you suspect might have caused it to start go 'Low Battery'? LiPos can start not to report charge levels accurately if never run down to low charge once in a while. I...

    Camera exposure problems

    These are the settings I usually use: I set contrast to -3 (remember, I add contrast back in post-production) Sharpness -1 Satuation -1 ( I've gone into more detail on my website and my free ebook (you should be able to find download information in my profile).

    Camera exposure problems

    It does not *need* a graduated filter. An normal ND-filter might help as well, by the way. I have a P2V+ too and I do not notice the problem you describe. In fact I find that the dynamic range of the P3 to be better than the P2V+ What you can do is change your P3 settings to film in LOG-mode...

    Kentucky man arrested for shooting down drone

    I know, but was it "shot out of the sky"? I'm honestly confused as to what really happened.

    Kentucky man arrested for shooting down drone

    Common sense goes a long way. That includes not using drones to snoop on your neighbors. The shooters actions are obviously completely out of line. But there is a real privacy concern. Still, will he be shooting at private airplanes too then? It is very easy to sit up in a private airplane...

    Color and Grading P3 Footage

    Personally I find that an ND8 + POL filter works great in bright sunlight.

    My first near flyaway --> CSV Analysis added with intereresting discoveries!

    I think 30 miles is on the short side for a real *need* to recalibrate the compass. But honestly, I'm not sure. It can't hurt to calibrate the compass if in doubt.

    I'm sorry I'm tired of the tilted horizon

    Do you shoot in Manual mode - or in AE-lock mode, or auto? I've come to like the AE-lock mode a lot (hitting the AE (Auto Exposure)-lock (upper right corner) to keep the camera from changing ISO, Shutter Speed or EV.

    My first near flyaway --> CSV Analysis added with intereresting discoveries!

    I can't say for sure - but it is fairly easy to hit that little switch on the left by mistake.
