    Can someone explain the homing graphic?

    I think you mean the little circle on the lower right? I believe it shows by GPS where the controller is and where the drone is on a mini map. If the controller is pointed away from the drone you get a red spread signifying the wifi signal. When you point the controller at the drone it turns...

    Piloting skills

    Anafipals: I am curious as to how many of you learned your piloting skills, and how you hold the controller joy sticks. I watched a video about common mistakes made by beginners, and the person said that one should hold the joysticks pinched between the thumbs and index finger of each hand for...

    Problems downloading video from Anafi on Mac

    I also want to add that I have looked at some of the other threads, and only one sort of applies. My SD cards are working fine on the Mac including my 64 gig card. I am using a USB C to USB dongle, but my charge cord can go into the dongle too. Some have mentioned using hubs and making that...

    Problems downloading video from Anafi on Mac

    Anafilpals: I have been playing with the Anafi for the last few days. Very impressive!! Now, the first few videos I did I pulled off the drone by connecting a USB cable to the drone and then to my MacBook Pro 13 inch 2018 with 4 thunderbolt ports. That went fine. Figured that would be so much...

    Should I get an Anafi??

    After perusing this site and watching videos etc on how to fly for a beginner, I decided also to buy a $40 cheap toy drone (Syma X5C) to learn how to fly manually first. That way I can crash galore and not worry. The Syma is fully manual including no GPS and ability to hover, so I figure if I...

    Should I get an Anafi??

    Well, I took the plunge. Drone arrives tomorrow! Should be an interesting adventure for sure. Assuming it survives my early learning, I will be posting for more advice! Thanks Anafipals!

    Simple charging options?

    Perfect. I already have a few of those!

    Simple charging options?

    Anafi Pals: Looks like I might take the plunge and buy the Anafi. I have a 4 port USB charger that goes like 40 watts. I assume I can charge all of the Anafi gear with it, but somewhat slowly. I just want simple inexpensive charging. Will that be adequate? Or are there other hubs that chargers...

    Should I get an Anafi??

    Anafi Pals: I am a possible wannabe. I have been interested in getting a drone for travel, sailing, cycling, and fun. I have never flown one before. I have been looking at the Anafi, DJI Mavic Air, and Autel Evo. Each has their pluses and minuses for a new pilot. I am not looking at commercial...
