RE: First Flight with the Mavic Air Was a Success!

in #steem6 years ago

That was some wise idea to start it with an open space so you won't have what we called: 'story for the gods'. Hahahahaha, that simply means you avoided some unpleasant stories.

The photos are really great to me considering the height which you took them. I zoomed in and out to have a feel of the picture quality and it looks great.

But one great problem you may encounter in not so open space will be balancing between looking at the control screen for pictures like you are doing here

And actually looking up at the drone for dangers like building, trees and the rest. Else you may crash it into a tree. Just my thought though, but I hope you get my point.

Hahahaha I'm very glad I decided to head to an open space @lordjames! Yeah that's very true, luckily the DJI controllers hooks up to my phone. It lets me see through the camera on the drone and it also has proximity alerts when you get near something. It is hard to spot the little guy when it gets up in the air as well! There's also a satellite map that shows trees and most obstacles as well.

Proximity alerts and Google mapping system, it's like the development crew had thought out everything. Alright then, let's have some fun.

They really did think of everything, the whole drone is just designed with amazing functionality and hardware, I couldn’t imagine it being any better than this! I’m still brainstorming some more ideas for what I can capture with this thing!
