No, definitely not. I have enough scars from props to not want any more. LOL You can buy landing pads from about $10 that look the part and stop the drone acting as a weed-eater.

The problem was the editing software, stated it can edit 4K but neglected to advise it was an extra, you discovered that when you tried to edit, I'm using windoze 10 and had the system built with editing in mind, I do have VLC and a few others but will look at potplayer.
I think the editing suite was one of the Corel progammes, I use their Paintshop Pro X series for my cameras as well as PS.

For photos I use Paint.NET for most of my editing but for serious stuff I have Photoshop. Paint.NET is free and an excellent program for resizing etc.
For video I use AVS Video Editor on PC (paid) and ISkysoft (now Wondershare) on the Mac.
There is a very good program called Videopad that has a free version too.

Yeah I made one for the X Star and then just got used to catching it. The E2 is extremely stable when hovering but I just can't put my fingers within a couple inches of the rear props.....

What is the flag?
(the bottom one)
I use ND's and polarising, came as a kit with 4,8,16 and 32.
Also, I just lost a battery on the mavic, had 3 lights then the drone sent an error message and only two middle lights on for a while, light went red on charger, the others are fine, I was taking some aerial shots of the new place for the fenci ng contractor and needed a battery change when it happened.

It's a "Trump" flag.
I think I'll get a set of ND filters and try them.
Twice my X Star critically landed away from me. Once in a corn field where the combine was running. He missed it by two rows...... I tried all of the suggestions to improve the batteries but nothing seemed to help. I'm down to one reliable battery and can't get new ones anymore. That's why I bought the E2.

We use the footage with all kinds of software, so we shoot as raw as possible, and then dress it up if needed.
Our Phantom has big legs so it's easier to hand catch. We do it about 50% of the time.

Only filter I have ever used is a polarizing one. I haven't used any on a drone though.

I went the landing pad route. Caught it a couple times and thought at some point it is going to bite me so I stopped that dangerous practice before I got complacent.

Yes, nice pics Richard. I sort of wish I opted for the Mavic Zoom instead of the Pro.Beautiful. It looks like a digital zoom though, right?
Looks like some freeloader is over there sitting in front of your garage door, maybe send the dog out to bark at him.
