? Do tell...how?

Well shucks. I keep waffling back and forth whether or not to sell mine. It's currently the backup to my backup, so realistically it's probably not going to get much air time. Every time I make up my mind to sell it one of you guys generates a glimmer of hope and I keep it. *sigh*

Minimum age is 16. I don't recall a maximum age. Who was it on YouTube that said there was? I want to make sure I don't listen to them.

I'm planning on learning more about Resolve to get away from Premiere. Not to hijack that thread, but I also use HitFilm from FXHome. It's very intuitive and has kind of a hybrid approach of licensing. They have a free version that's very capable and a paid version that includes all of the...

Does the app recognize the battery levels and report back capacity and flight times correctly?

PM Sent.

Do you still need a battery for Joshua to test?

Apparently none that I can afford. But if I were a surveyor or relied on mapping I'd be pleased.

I still fly an EVO I and and an XSP. That's definitely a good price, and I wouldn't hesitate to get it. Eventually batteries won't be available like with the XSP, but realistically, buy a couple here and there and you'll be good for quite a while.

I'm crossing my fingers that they work on the waypoint functionality. I set up my first mission a few weeks ago and the way it works doesn't work for me. It's very mechanical. Fly to point A, stop, yaw to face next point, fly to point B, stop, yaw to face next point, etc. I guess I was spoiled...

Am I mistaken, or is he rotating the gimbal up farther than I think it should go? I watched one of his other videos and he appears to be pointing the gimbal up?

Very nice.

Some day, when I have time (most likely in August of 2021), I'm going to try a rebuild. I measured the cells in one battery I took apart and found some that have the same dimensions, but different leads. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32796819171.html

Actually, no, it's really a phenomenon known as 'jello effect'. Basically it's a distortion of the video image whereby it shows an undulating wavy pattern similar to looking through clear wobbly jello, hence the name. One big contributing factor to jello effect is vibration due to an out of...

Glad the train didn't go into a tunnel then. Stop it...just stop it. See what you made me do? :)
