    Memorial Day Alaska Cabin Video

    Thanks for the compliment, but I honestly have it set at the default from the latest update..........but an short comings with my lack of skill with the drone are somewhat adjustable with my video editor Resolve. So that makes up for a lot of the fact I am still learning the drone. Take care!

    Memorial Day Alaska Cabin Video

    I have a set of filters, but I honestly have not used them yet. I got lucky in regards to the lighting and have some "basic" editing skills for videos when it comes to using Resolve. Other than that.......it was what the settings for the Anafi are at from the latest update...nothing more...

    Memorial Day Alaska Cabin Video

    This is outside of Tok, Alaska which is about 90 miles away from the Canadian border. Lots of work and it is remote............but I guess that is the best part of it. No another soul around for as far as the eye can see. That helps a bit in making good vids..........lol

    Memorial Day Alaska Cabin Video

    Put a quick scenic vid up of our Holiday weekend. The more I fly the Anafi, the more I like it. I sincerely hope Parrot keeps coming out with an even better drone as I really like their interface and flight characteristics. Memorial Day Weekend 2019 Enjoy, akdroner

    Motor dust caps: Are they worth it?

    Well where I am going next is I am going to run them on an actual flight and then quickly take one off..............I am wondering if the temp I am getting that is between 1 to 3 degrees hotter than the OEM motors is because the aluminum cap is acting as a "heat-sink". So I would like to see...

    Motor dust caps: Are they worth it?

    Can't say I disagree thus far.

    Motor dust caps: Are they worth it?

    The props still move freely, but the caps don't fit completely snug........there is some minor movement by them as they sort of float on top of the motor prop frame........and can touch the prop if you lift up. So that is why I was not really all that impressed with the fit and finish and I...

    Anafi motor caps by (Sunnylife): Increasing the Anafi Motor temps?

    Great video and thanks for sharing. Totally don't speak French, but I got the jest of what was going on and very informative on causing the motor stall at startup. This is why I was overall not impressed with the machining of the parts since there were ways in which to have created some better...

    Motor dust caps: Are they worth it?

    True.....and I very well may find that to be just the case with this purchase.

    Hi all. A Wet Anafi here

    Welcome and I have a bit of experience with water and drones: Key is to get it into heat and let it completely dry out and DO NOT PUT POWER TO IT until you can make sure ALL WATER is dried! Once it is dry, the next worst part is water starts to corrode just because it was once in there. So...

    Motor dust caps: Are they worth it?

    I recall a time back when I was lurking that there were a lot of different opinions on whether dust caps were worth it or not. In Alaska even when I use a launch pad etc, there is a lot of silt and fine dust that comes up and when I first bought my Anafi the caps were something I was going to...
