    First time mini 2 owner. First flight yesterday a little rocky so I am going back to basics. I was in bright sun yesterday and literally lost all vision of fly app on phone and lost site of drone over a highway about 1/2 mile out luckily found the RTH and all is well. I have a sunshade arriving tomorrow. the biggest challenge was determining forward to fly drone as I couldn't see the screen. Anyway, I appreciate the very clear concise videos and will watch today before I try it again. Thanks

    • @PhillipSkraba
      @PhillipSkraba  3 года назад

      That sounds like a stressful situation! I've been in tonnes myself. As long as you have RTH height sett above all obstacles around you, so trees, buildings, power lines, no matter what happens, phone dies, loss of signal, the drone will fly safely back to you and land within a 2m radius. A sun shade could help, sure! I usually just stand away from the sun and use my body as a shade.

    RTH Tip: If you're film in woods or somewhere else that has obstructions above the drone, set it to "Hover", otherwise when you lose signal it will climb to its preset altitude ( there's a minimum you can set it to) and fly into branches and crash. This is of course assuming you can walk over and get the drone. It its in a forest over a river, well, good luck :)

      That's awesome! I'd say the Mini 2 is a wonderful drone, and I use it 99% of the time, the other 1% I take out the Mavic 2 Pro, and the reason for that is usually severe winds. Wonderful drone, glad you like it! Welcome to the channel!

Also, I've noticed your stick s will play back all your movements. Maybe you could do a video and talk through the stick movement while we can see the recorded movements. Keep up the episodes coming!!!

      Thanks Kurt! I'm afraid I don't own the Pro or Platinum, at the moment it's the Mini 2, Pro 2, Inspire 2 and Matrice 600. I've thought about that, but everyone does that, and it's not really about where your fingers are, but rather the feeling. It's all in the hips, and that's the truth. Practice, practice, practice.

      I agree with the op, it would be very helpful especially if we are using your settings. practice does make perfect, however if you add the stick movements it would be way more easy to understand the timing and synchronizations that your talking about for us to fine tune our practice. You say there are others that have those videos out, but I like your shots better so I would rather see them from you. Would make for some awesome content, thank you very much for your current videos as they r very helpful as is.

My jumps from 90° to 80° and I have to recalibrate it back to 90° every single time I fly forward looking for composition of my top down shots. It seems like this is well known issue for majority of the mini users on different forums and it's very annoying. Greetings /Zlatan

    New to all this so better ask before first flight.

    • @PhillipSkraba
      @PhillipSkraba  3 года назад

      Hi Pierre, thank You! No, you don't need to put it in airplane mode, if you get a call just decline it and you'll be fine. Remember to always set your RTH accurately, so if your phone does get disconnected your drone will find it's way back to you safely no matter what.

    Nice instruction 👍 That 180 degree rule is only useful if you are filming moving objects to show motion blur. For regular video its not needed or that useful. Drone film guide mentioned this a couple of times in their videos on youtube.

    • @PhillipSkraba
      @PhillipSkraba  3 года назад +1

      Thank You! Being that 99% of the time I'm filming moving objects or the drone is moving the 180 degree rule is very important. It's the standard to achieve the classic Hollywood look, as natural as it gets. Basically, if you walk on a film set and set anything other than that on the camera you're in for a world of hurt 😂 or you better have a damn good reason for doing so.
      The drone is constantly moving, so I don't agree with Stewart on this one, even though I totally respect what he does. I understand why someone would choose a 360 degree shutter angle or a 45 degree shutter angle and I believe those are artistic choices we make consciously, so to allow the drone to go full auto, well, that's just not for me, I like to be in control of my image.
      I will however agree that if the drone is pretty high and it seems like it's moving super slow the shutter can be cranked up and almost show no visible difference from the 180 degree rule.

    Hey Phillip, you kinds skimmed through this part. You said 25 FPS for Europe and 24 FPS for USA, why not 30? Wouldn't 30 allow for smoother shots? And then just change the shutter speed to 1/60?

    • @PhillipSkraba
      @PhillipSkraba  3 года назад +2

      I'm pretty religious when it comes to fps and shutter speed, I use the European 25fps and I stick to the 180 degree angle rule. However, sure, you can drop to 1/30 and slow it down 20% for a little bit of a smoother ride, but the thing is so smooth anyway I really don't feel the need to do that.

      That sounds a little odd. If you use manual settings during the day you'd need to have nd filters on the lens, otherwise you need to be on auto settings. It should be pretty clear and look normal with auto settings, the only thing you'll be missing out on is natural motion blur.
