Thank you Jeff, I'm a newbie to drone world. Bought and flew my Mavic Air only twice thus far. And only for short distances so far. As a hobby videotographer , if I understood you correctly, the Tap Fly "free" mode functions like the previous MP's mode known as "course lock" where the drone locks and flies in selected direction all the while the camera is free to be aimed at any direction without changing the fly path. If this is what "free" mode does than I think this is the most important function of Mavic Air's Tap Fly for cinematic filming. Perhaps you can state this in your video it would clear up a lot of confusion. thanks.

spondyful you are absolutely correct, it is just like course lock. The only difference is i believe you had to "active track" an object with the MP. On the MA, you won't need to lock on to an object.

One final question; Is there a way to turn off the warning? I.M.O. it's just one more thing blocking a part of the screen. Thanks
@JeffGreeneChannel

Raymond Sherman the attitude warning is actually b/c it was pretty windy causing the pitch of the mavic to be too high or low (front or back). So it just indicates that the obstacle avoidance turns off momentarily. I think the setting is too sensitive on the mavic due to the snall size. My warning is always getting triggered :(

You don't mention the warnings that come up saying obstacle detection is not working. I have seen this warning on my own mavic air. Scares me to fly in an automated flight with no obstacle detection. Can you explain further?
@JeffGreeneChannel
6 жыл бұрын
Hi Ryan, I would not worry about this most of the time. Usually the warning will say the "Attitude is too large". This will commonly happen if the wind is gusty and/or you are flying fast(mavic is leaning into the wind). Attitide means the pitch of the mavic is too high or to low, so the sensors are in effect facing too high or too low to help with obstacle avoidance, instead of facing perfectly forward. You bring up a good point though, when using automated flight modes; always have your finger close to the pause button. Hope this helps!

how did you remedy the message "cannot fly in that direction" ? . When I get that, I can 't enter tapfly. I tried the tapfly backwards but it appeared that the mavic wouldn't let me enter the fly backwards mode when that message came out. I saw it briefly on your screen and then it disappeared. but I couldn't see how you did it.
@JeffGreeneChannel
5 жыл бұрын
Hi Leon, good question. I believe what is happening here is essentially a safety feature. TapFly needs to be done higher than ~10ft off the ground(in forward) if the gimbal is angled down, b/c pretty much anywhere you tap on the screen would be descending toward the ground(sensors kicking in). So i think in this case, when i hit tapfly, the message pops up immediately, since it probably defaults to forward tapfly. However, once I choose reverse, you still want to tap BELOW the horizon line to make the mavic air rise(everything is opposite). I am guessing when you tried tapfly backwards, you tapped above the horizon line, essentially making it descend instead(triggering the error message). Hope that makes sense. Let me know.

Thanks. I think I might have been trying it below 10 feet. I didn’t know about that safety feature. It did work when I started it way up in the air. That might have been the issue. I will try that again next time I go out. 👍

@@JeffGreeneChannel I went out and tried it again and at first couldn't determine the issue. But I think I figured it out. In attempt to do selfie flying backwards, it had the camera pointed down at me, but the horizon line was out of camera view. Once I adjusted the camera view to see the horizon line, it appeared to work every time. Apparently, without the horizon line in view, the tapfly cannot determine whether the direction is above or below the line.

Thank you Jeff, I'm a newbie to drone world. Bought and flew my Mavic Air only twice thus far. And only for short distances so far. As a hobby videotographer , if I understood you correctly, the Tap Fly "free" mode functions like the previous MP's mode known as "course lock" where the drone locks and flies in selected direction all the while the camera is free to be aimed at any direction without changing the fly path. If this is what "free" mode does than I think this is the most important function of Mavic Air's Tap Fly for cinematic filming. Perhaps you can state this in your video it would clear up a lot of confusion. thanks.
@JeffGreeneChannel

spondyful you are absolutely correct, it is just like course lock. The only difference is i believe you had to "active track" an object with the MP. On the MA, you won't need to lock on to an object.

Raymond Sherman the attitude warning is actually b/c it was pretty windy causing the pitch of the mavic to be too high or low (front or back). So it just indicates that the obstacle avoidance turns off momentarily. I think the setting is too sensitive on the mavic due to the snall size. My warning is always getting triggered :(

You don't mention the warnings that come up saying obstacle detection is not working. I have seen this warning on my own mavic air. Scares me to fly in an automated flight with no obstacle detection. Can you explain further?
@JeffGreeneChannel
6 жыл бұрын
Hi Ryan, I would not worry about this most of the time. Usually the warning will say the "Attitude is too large". This will commonly happen if the wind is gusty and/or you are flying fast(mavic is leaning into the wind). Attitide means the pitch of the mavic is too high or to low, so the sensors are in effect facing too high or too low to help with obstacle avoidance, instead of facing perfectly forward. You bring up a good point though, when using automated flight modes; always have your finger close to the pause button. Hope this helps!

I saw it briefly on your screen and then it disappeared. but I couldn't see how you did it.
@JeffGreeneChannel

Hi Leon, good question. I believe what is happening here is essentially a safety feature. TapFly needs to be done higher than ~10ft off the ground(in forward) if the gimbal is angled down, b/c pretty much anywhere you tap on the screen would be descending toward the ground(sensors kicking in). So i think in this case, when i hit tapfly, the message pops up immediately, since it probably defaults to forward tapfly. However, once I choose reverse, you still want to tap BELOW the horizon line to make the mavic air rise(everything is opposite). I am guessing when you tried tapfly backwards, you tapped above the horizon line, essentially making it descend instead(triggering the error message). Hope that makes sense. Let me know.

Thanks. I think I might have been trying it below 10 feet. I didn’t know about that safety feature. It did work when I started it way up in the air. That might have been the issue. I will try that again next time I go out. 👍

@@JeffGreeneChannel I went out and tried it again and at first couldn't determine the issue. But I think I figured it out. In attempt to do selfie flying backwards, it had the camera pointed down at me, but the horizon line was out of camera view. Once I adjusted the camera view to see the horizon line, it appeared to work every time. Apparently, without the horizon line in view, the tapfly cannot determine whether the direction is above or below the line.

@@leonslack2182 yep, exactly. I was trying to explain that but you did a much better job. It's all about the horizon line.
Whenever I press “go” on tapfly on all 4 features, it goes for a second then stops.. I have tried setting Go to many directions but it just stops after a second of it moving towards it.. PLEASE someone help!!!

Please fix your audio levels, your music is blazing loud and your dialogue is so soft I have to crank up the volume too far. Regardless, thanks for the tutorials

Thanks for the feedback Zack. Hopefully my newer videos do not have this problem.
Do you manually elevate the drone or is it preset ?

Hi Omar, the elevation is totally dependent on where you tap on the screen. If you tap slightly above the midline, the mavic will rise slightly at the set speed. Make sense?

Thanks Omar, welcome to the group, and happy holidays to you as well!
Dude, liked your video but the music volume was WAY to high.
Liked the video hated the driving base beat
As much as I love my Mavic Air features, tap to fly to me is the worst feature, I used it once and that’s it, I just don’t see a good reason to use it

Nice video. Next time lose the 45 seconds of crap at the beginning. The first 5 seconds of a video dictates if the viewer will stop or continue watching.

Thanks for the thumbs up Jimi, i do appreciate the feedback for ways to improve.
It is a pity that lying can not afford the truth - this drone breaks its range after 100 meters in the city!
