    Can you see old mine tunnels and springs on a hillside with a 640T?

    I didn't think about that.... you'd have to see past the heat signatures of the leaves of the trees...... Thanks for the response.

    Can you see old mine tunnels and springs on a hillside with a 640T?

    I am on the look out for springs and old mine tunnels in the heavily treed forest, would the 640t have the resolution to see the coolness signature of both 40F water and cool air exiting tunnels through the trees on a hot summer day?

    A rock hit my drone

    Don't ask why, but I am pretty sure a rock hit my drone, and it fell to the ground (maybe 40 feet). Everything looks intact- no cracked blades, camera is ok, just a little dusty. I turn the battery on and it goes up to 4 bars, but it will not connect to my controller. What do I need to do to...

    Video Link Disconnected

    I am a new pilot and went out to make a flight, hooked up my andriod phone to the controller, turned the controller on, the explorere app on and then turned on the drone and my phone was displaying the "Disconnected" icon on the face of my phone... for the life of me, I couldn't figure out why I...

    Video editing question

    What is the minimum 2018 mac mini model do I want?

    Video editing question

    I might as well get a new mini, since mine is over 8 yrs old. Do you think the "stripped down" version of the new mini, with 16gb ram and a bigger hard drive will be enough? I don't want to "cheap out" and find out I screwed myself. But in the same breath, I don't necessarily want to buy the...

    Video editing question

    Again... I don't need a rocketship to do pro videos, I just need to know what is the vintage and model of a capable machine. I get it that my machine is too old, but it works for everything else. I was also considering getting a newer laptop for portablity and when I am working on videos, I...

    Video editing question

    I am using the evo drone to take videos of some project areas. I am currently creating videos using a 2011 mac mini (2.5 I5 and 9GB ram) and it is choking when I am trying to create simple videos of 1080 and maybe 5 minutes long. In the Mac sphere (mini, mac book pro or mac air) what is a decent...

    Non-GPS and Strobe

    Ok, how many strobes and where do you put them for best visibility?

    Non-GPS and Strobe

    So being new to the whole drone flying thing.... I watch all the cool videos of the drones flying all over the place using their GPS for all the fancy flight patterns it can do. It didn't even occur to me that where I would be flying (in deep remote canyons) that the Evo wouldn't be able to get...

    Steep mountainsides

    Yeah, the plan is to have 2 1/2" x 1/2" square stock center bolted to the strips on the outside of the roll. I unroll the roll, and then turn the bolted 1/2" strip perpendicular to the table top and that should stabilize. I will upload photo when I do it.
