Hey all pilots

[Abiled]

Hey all been flying FPV for a little while and decided last year to buy a mavic (2nd hand) so far all good but weather has stopped me fully using it to its full use, currently trying to edit the video but adobe keeps crashing my laptop so until that gets sorted no videos.

If anyone knows of any software that won't overheat my laptop that would be fab

Are you attempting to edit 4K video? If so, it could well be the video files, rather than the editing software, that's causing your problem. If that's the case, you could try shooting (& editing) lower res video... although it might make more sense to upgrade your laptop's graphics capabilities instead.

Instead of editing your 4k videos in 4k the best thing to do is gonna be use proxies. It's just a smaller easier to handle copy of your video used for editing. Then when you're done you can still export in 4k if that's what you were wanting to do. It's actually really easy to do, my brother is the one that showed me how to do it. I'm gonna just be honest with you here, if he can do it I'm sure you can figure it out cause he really ain't that bright lol. He doesnt fly drones so I'm not worried about him seeing this, bless his heart lmao. Anyway if you can't figure it out you can always check out the University of Youtube. I'm sure you'll find plenty of tutorials there. Good luck!
