The drone takes off, hovering a handful of feet off the ground. I guide it up to about twelve feet with the throttle on the remote management. Then my three yr old son will take over. He taps the screen on an iPad operating our piloting app. The drone, a DJI Phantom 4, begins to ascend, heading in direction of an abandoned grainery. My son happily taps away at the screen, shifting the drone right here and there. You would not discover how frantically he's tapping from the footage he captured, which is buttery smooth.

The working assortment has been enhanced from one.7km to 2km (one.two miles) while in the Uk you are restricted to 500 metres with out CAA approval for EVLOS (Extended Visual Line of Sight). Impressed?

The straps on the bag actually come to feel like the high-quality you'd anticipate to see on a normal school backpack (like a Jansport). It truly is absolutely nothing premium, but satisfactory for carrying the bag. The place the place your back hits the backpack has air vents so you never sweat like a hippo on the way to your shoot. There is no waist belt, which I normally like to have, but does not definitely matter on this pack because all you happen to be holding in the pack is an ultralight Quadcopter With Camera Control (check).

But most people using the sorbothane mounts are applying it as a bumper/washer they screw-down against with the mount. My only concern is that there is nevertheless some rigidity and vibration transfer as a result of the screws at that point. I'm actually taking into consideration experimenting with 1/4″ thick Neoprene as an alternative, so view for a lot more test effects in my up coming segment in March!

I am going to be experimenting with extra mounting alternatives and definitely some ND filters to assist handle the rolling shutter and boost the picture excellent of the GoPro. I'll also be executing additional substantial side-by-side testing with different frame charges and resolutions with the Hero3 and will be sharing any updates and announcements from product manufacturers at NAB in April.
