    Complaint Vent and Concerns

    Oh and of course, for night flying you need a special authorization from the French FAA.

    Complaint Vent and Concerns

    I agree, this is a shame. In France for such a kind of event you'd need to be registered as a professional and you have to request an authorization before flying in any urban area or near any event involving more than 10 people. Anyone flying in a fireworks could be fined, have the drone...

    I am sorry, out of context, but what goggles do you use?

    Just Lost My 1 Week old P4P Help Please

    Right now, with no DJI record and no drone, you have basically nothing to show to them. I don't see why they would do something only based on your good faith. Worth a try, but that's a long shot.

    Huachuca Mountains. Cochise County, AZ. Looking for honest Feedback.

    It's extremely simple : ND filters will prevent too much light going into your camera. Shutter speed = the amount of time that each individual frame is exposed for. On a bright sunny day, each of your frame could be exposed at 1/400th of a second. This is way too much for most uses. The DJI...

    Franks Phantom 4 Story.

    Cinelike is usually better than dlog. The P4P camera is not good enough to take advantage of Dlog. You can check the forums, there are plenty of interesting discussions about this. Curious about your NTSC reason...

    Buy a ND filter for these kind of high light situations to keep shutter speed at the double of fps. Video quality will improve a lot.

    Are you really comparing amateur drone flying and extremely professional jet flying? Seriously?

    Careless drone flyer could have killed me

    Wow some of the answers here show a scary lack of knowledge and responsibility. You don't fly a drone in the city center. That's all I can say. This is because of stupid people like this that drone flying is going to be more and more restricted.

    Aerial Measurment Question

    Try dronedeploy, they have a 1 month complete trial. You'll be able to measure whatever you want and it's extremely accurate.

    Ipad mini 4 64gb video freezes

    Same issue. Hard reboot before each flight solves the issue.

    Battery Heat Cool Down Needed?

    I put them in a ziplock and freezer for a few minutes. Only if I need to charge the batteries very fast for a mission. Beware of condensation.

    Phantom 3 Standard falls out of sky and almost injures people

    Maybe one day someone will die and you will stop doing reckless flights over people. As a professional pilot in France, I have to request authorizations for every flight in populated area, don't have the right to fly over people, need a minimal 30m exclusion zone, have to keep the drone in line...

    P4 Recording Quality

    I've read some bad things on D-Log and Phantom 4. People say it doesn't make sense with a 8-bits camera. You should try and compare.
