    I love TapFly on the Mavic Air. In Forward, you don't need to manage speed, altitude, or direction. All remain constant unless, of course, if you deliberately adjust either of them. When you do want to make a change in either speed, altitude, or direction, you can with the joy sticks. Then let go when the new parameters are set and the drone flies on it's own while you manage the camera. In Reverse, you get the same functionality. In Free, you cannot change direction with the yaw stick. That makes sense as you want the yaw stick to control the camera direction. Like the previous modes (Forward/Reverse) you can change speed or altitude. What I like most about the Coordinate mode is, when flying in restricted space, you don't need to worry about flying too far. Your end point is set. This acts like a dynamic waypoint mode. You fly to the first point, reset flight or camera parameters, then set your new waypoint and proceed. I am looking forward to having this level of control on my P4P.

    I haven't tried any of the automated flight modes yet. I'm still flying strictly manual, but I think I'm comfortable enough now to start trying some of them. I need to follow a semi truck down a road and the camera shot being smooth is much more important than the flight path. A simple straight line for the drone while turning the camera will be awesome. How well does the drone still track if you end up rotating 180 degrees around? I assume it's making a GPS point to go to, not really a virtual place on the screen?

  • @DroneSupremacy

    @DroneSupremacy

    6 жыл бұрын

    I'm not sure what's the technology behind it, but the drone definitely follows the same path even when rotating 180 degrees. You can see a straight red line on the map when I'm using the Free mode, and i'm sure the drone has some GPS coordinates to help it follow that path. But it's very stable and generally super easy to use.

    Hi Mike, another great interesting video, I will have to try some of these different modes to help get some impressive footage, at the moment still just using the sticks! I’ve had issues with batteries, a few months back received a “ broken cell warning” please land ASAP! And contact DJI, which I did and they replaced the battery, 10 days ago got exactly the same warning with one of my other batteries! This time DJI won’t replace! Under 11 months old, only 8 charges and max 10 minutes total flying time, I’m hoping to talk to higher management in a couple of days time to sort the issue!!! I have just bought a MacBook Pro 2017, and I used to use Pinnacle 19 Ultimate on my Home pc for editing! But Pinnacle is not compatible with the MacBook, and it looks like you’re using maybe a Mac for your editing and I was wondering this guy has some decent footage going on ! So what editing software do you recommend please Mike? Keep up the good work! Subscribed months ago! 👍 Dave in the UK.

    Hey Dave! Sorry to hear about your battery issues, hope you get them sorted ASAP! As for your editing question - yes, I use a Mac as well and i use Final Cut Pro X for all of my editing. I find the software really easy to use both by beginners and more advanced users, and it also works best with Macs for rendering/exporting times (it's much quicker than any other software). However, if you're looking for a free solution you can check out Davinci Resolve, it's a good alternative. Good luck, and thanks for the support! 🙌🏻

    I also like TapFly a lot. Espacially the free mode is great. However, I have a problem with it. I have changed my EXP settings to 0.1 yaw to get very smooth turns. However, in tap-fly it seems the EXP settings are not used. The yaw-speed is very sensitive and I do not get a smooth turn. Any ideas how to smoothen the yaw-speed? Can you confirm that EXP-settings are not used in tap-fly?
