Yahoo, #MAIL is BACK!! Again, welcome back, Dylan, I hope you and your family have been keeping well. Will we find out all the nitty-gritty of what project you were working on? Yes, these are frustrating times, but we will get through this and back to flying and shooting like "Cinematic Gods"! You take care and stay well.

Hi Dylan, you mentioned briefly cropping shots in editing. Very useful tip. I am learning editing tips such as this so since you might be wondering what subject to cover next, how about more suggestions on how to improve our footage in editing? I hope your OH stays safe so a round of applause and thanks from me and everyone else.

Great video. Really helpful. I’m new to drones and was looking to purchase one but mainly to take pictures and footage of my daughter who is 9 months. But finding it overwhelming with all the drone choices and laws. Would be great if you can do a video of your opinion on my requirements of maybe a drone is not the best idea for my requirements. Any advice would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Dylan, nice to see you back online. I've been following the channel for about two years now, since I got my first Dji Spark. This is my first comment thought. #mail ;] How do you recommend to improve our "god skills' during the quarantine? Read more? Edit more? Simulator practice? Small indoor drone? Watch more tutorials? Build online connections?

Am i right in saying for Take Off and Landing the distance is reduced to 30 meters, this never gets mentioned? If this is the case then can I take off in my back garden which is in an average Suburban street of Semi Detached houses and ascend to 50+ meters. We all have gardens of 30-50 meters long. Is a street like mine classed as a built up area as the drone code shows a built up area as a Town/High street with High Rise building rather than suburban street. I note that you fly in and around your back garden :) Great to see you back Dylan!!
@IkoptaUk
@IkoptaUk 4 года назад
So it was for commercial PFCO stated in the flight tests etc.. never seen it published in rec drone codes.. but then that doesn't mean its not true.. IF the new rules are followed from EASA.. then with the right craft.. there would be minimal distance required in the right area, at the right speed 🤷‍♂️ But I read it that 30m at takeoff.. but its a safety call of the person at the controls..
@philip_james
@philip_james 4 года назад
@@IkoptaUk It's on the CAA website under the section 'People' 😁 During take-off and landing, you can reduce this distance down to 30m. register-drones.caa.co.uk/drone-code/where-you-can-fly

Not that I will do this but can see so many people flying during this time, from your garden say to a field close by going over a few houses in built up area. The police have a lot more important concerns to deal with complains about a drone from a someone.. Oh he's flying over my house, police don't bother with half the issues in the UK let alone now. Plus police and gov hav already said a lot of low level crime will be ignored if this crisis gets worse. I know this potentially would be unacceptable due to ruining for other, but as things stand I'd say your ok👍🏻

Looooong time no see! Great to see you back Dylan, just a little point, we (drone flyers) are probably facing the longest time available for us to go fly cos normally we're at work, so all I can say is bring on the rain! Mad to say that but during these 10, 12 or however long it takes weeks spare I'd rather see wetness falling and we have all had a lot of that recently. So my solution is I'm gonna sit down at my PC and do lots of photoshop and photography learning, and let's face it we all need a little bit of that, .......er well I need a lot, ! so no flying for me and my new mavic dual apart from using it to take my temperature to see if I have this lurgy. Cheers see ya soon.

@IkoptaUk
@IkoptaUk 4 года назад
Hey Alistair, when charging batteries, I always go full.. just in case I'm going to fly, I don't trust the battery indicators and tests the battery functions. no real science behind that though.. if storing, as long as you are checking the batteries every month.. cant see a big issue with doing 3/4

Sounds like you've been on the helium there at the end !! My DJI Spark batteries self discharge to approx 2/3 rd capacity after about a week from full charge, don't all Dji batteries do this ?
@IkoptaUk
@IkoptaUk 4 года назад
Some do.. some don't.. some you can set the discharge rate.. each model has different abilities depending on the battery size... thing to watch is that the cells don't breakdown.. so a little charge every few months just to check it works is good.. also battery rotation when flying helps as well..
@copperknob1971
@copperknob1971 4 года назад
Yes, always been a bit obsessed with battery rotation, my Dji are numbered 1, 2 and 3, same system with my work tools (Dewalt) and Rc cars (lipo) seems to work, had most of them for quite a few years now.

Hi Dylan. #Mail...it must be Wednesday...Yayyy. Normality is restored. Great advice as always and always appreciated. Not sure if it’s a waste of time asking, but what have you been up to? You hinted that something was going to happen, then you “disappeared “ from the scene for 5 months then magically reappear with all sorts of hints as to what an exciting time you’ve had. I’m really happy for you but you could, perhaps, let us loyal subscribers, who stayed with you through the interminable silence, in on it? Please...pretty please! As always, take care, stay safe and catch you later. Peter

@aidanhughes3655
@aidanhughes3655 4 года назад
Not sure where he got his info on battery storage but it’s completely wrong. For a LiPo battery you want to store them at 3.85v per cell (you can check the voltage of the individual cells in the DJI app) *NOT 3/4* capacity, this will hurt your batteries in the long run. With storing your batteries correctly you also shouldn’t need to put them on something like a baking tray, they are safe as long as the are not damaged.
@IkoptaUk
@IkoptaUk 4 года назад
Thanks for the input Aidan.. Just for clarification...please share how you would get your DJI battery is at 3.85v/cell while stored? Where you get the optimum 3.85v/cell? What ambient temperature you are basing this information on?
@aidanhughes3655
@aidanhughes3655 4 года назад
Ikopta The same way anyone would discharge a battery without an actual discharger. Maybe take it out for a hover outside and track the cell voltages as they drop. Cells don’t have to be exactly 3.85v each of course they can be +/- .03v or so and it wont make a huge difference on overall health.

Love your videos Dylan however I think we have to be very careful in terms of what precedent is being set here. The wider discussion regarding the imposition of this lockdown needs to be thoroughly analysed when this is over. I’m really struggling with the arguments regarding walking, driving etc when we know the facts are that the majority of accidents occur in the household ? Sounds counter intuitive. I’m by no means a civil liberties fanatic, that said are we going to have to accept that we will have further lockdowns this year, next year or the year after ? And if it’s this easy to introduce emergency legislation how easy would it be to ban things such as drones all together at the drop of a hat. This is the time for clear, objective thinking and definitely the time to be very careful in accepting and acquiescing to all Govt advice. It took an inquiry to unearth “sexed up dossiers” and the lies that cost this country thousands of lives. Anyway great channel and content and look forward to the new vids👍
