    I think I have concluded that CCC mode has a very dumb flaw.

    I wish you could activate obstacle avoidance when using CCC. I think that safety measure could save our drones from unexpected results from CCC actions that we can’t predict.

    What’s your preferred carry Camera

    I’m a Sony A7R3 shooter w/ Canon 17mm Tilt/shift lens for real estate, Zeiss batis 18mm for video, and Sony 70-200mm 2.8 GM for food photography. I went with Freefly M10 instead of DJI. About to pull the trigger on a ready rig vest so I can do a lot more real estate videos.

    Magic wand and ST-16 question

    I only shoot interiors with my Canon 17mm T/S. I don’t know how I did any real estate photography without it.

    Magic wand and ST-16 question

    Cool background, a lot homes in Palm Springs state whom the architect was when it was built. That’s a big deal around here. ALWAYS wear black or grey clothing when shooting a house it’s much easier to remove your receptions but on that one my flash took me out of the window.

    Magic wand and ST-16 question

    I could rent them my drone. Lol. I, of course, would never let anyone fly my drone or rent my drone to anybody. I take my FAA license very seriously. Just playing devil’s advocate here.

    Magic wand and ST-16 question

    I have a question in regards to a commercial operator handing off control. If anyone can buy a drone why couldn’t I lend my drone to a friend and he/she fly it as a hobbyist without me being present? I don’t recall reading anything about this scenario when I was studying for my part 107. Which...

    Magic wand and ST-16 question

    I’ll just fly it behind them with the ST-16. Should be easy enough. Thanks for all your input!!

    Magic wand and ST-16 question

    I would set up the wand before clipping it on them and retake control of it when they returned so they wouldn’t be touching it. However, I’ve never used the wand in the 2 years I’ve had this drone. I just don’t trust it.

    Magic wand and ST-16 question

    Is there a way to switch from one to the other in flight? Reason I’m asking is because I’m going to be shooting another TV commercial where the drone would be following a couple joggers. I was thinking the easiest thing to do is use the follow me function and hand them the wand. But I do not...

    For Sale: Yuneec H520 w/E90 Camera - $2,500

    A couple years ago I purchased a Canon 17mm Tilt Shift lens off the Fred Miranda website the guy only lived about 2 hours away so I agreed to drive down to pick it up.
