@Chrislaf, was there damage? if yes, repair or replace?

Count me excited! Looks like it will be more functional than I expected, incorporating features from the latest camera drones and the Neo 2 (as well as everything expected that's Avata-like). My Mini 5 Pro may start gathering dust, although the media will still be better from the M5P. 1/1.1"...

Is that you, or are you not in the picture? Just curious where you were when you shot all those stills.

Nice, Chris! Is that you pulling the sled?

There is no workaround, and it is exceedingly unlikely they will invest the engineering to make a User Interface for the goggles presentation enabling this functionality. It's a rather complex feature that has never been implemented in any of the goggles version of DJI Fly, and my educated guess...

That's pretty cool, Chris! Does the downward light really make a difference in that situation? Seems like it wouldn't provide much illumination at that height in those daylight conditions. As for the thick ice, alien concept to us Californians. Any freezing of lakes/ponds in the winter in the...

Didn't happen if there's no video, Chris :D :D :D And how do you get the guts to walk out over that lake? Given my ignorance living in the Santa Cruz, CA area where our main concern is the height of the surf, I'm guessing y'all experienced northerners know the ice thickness somehow, but the...

That's a McDonald's symbol on top of a tall pole in the distance, not a windmill :D :D :D :D :D

Thanks @JustDavid! That's a little on the beefy side, I went for a super thin strong case made from Aramid fiber, wanting to preserve the very thin profile of the ZF7, which is awesome (been a fold owner since the ZF2). Supposedly has a magsafe ring in the backside, but it's worthless. I may...

Neo 2 version anywhere? Couldn't find it with an admittedly brief, cursory search.

I've done that an embarrassing number of times. And one or two over the years where the footage was really special, and can't be reproduced. This is what checklists, pushed by some, among them the occasional dorkmeister likely festooned with every type of EDC gear hanging from their clothing...

I have a ZF7 and bought a case with a mag ring, and it's so weak as to be completely useless. Which case do you have?

While I'm not encouraging people to manhandle and abuse the gimbal, the motors themselves are not so delicate that any damage will occur from turning against the EMF they are producing. They are BLDC motors and not very strong at that, so all forcing away from where they want to be will do is...

Have you tried the cooking mode and had it make dinner for you? The "shake salt" gesture is particularly interesting. Also a great companion for a game of Twister, but it always wins. 😁😁😁

You can record to the drone, the SD card in the goggles, or both. There is a setting in the goggles UI for this. If set to record to the goggles SD only and there's no SD in the goggles, it won't record.
