Got around to editing some video from last year shot with the Anafi of the mouth of the river Murray in South Australia. Normally the river flow is so low that the Murray Mouth has to be dredged constantly to keep the channel open but this year a one-in-seventy year flood saw a huge outflow...

Yeah, such a shame - I still fly and enjoy the Anafi but I also remember the days when range was great, it didn't complain constantly about 'magnetic interferences' and other rubbish, flight plan worked brilliantly without stopping at each waypoint, cameraman didn't bob up and down...

Great pano - I was just thinking 'wow, how high was that, looked like over 100m?' when I saw your comment :-)

Very strange. I'd assumed a broken prop also, but the fact that it seemed to recover briefly to stable flight a couple of times, and even begin climbing again, suggests otherwise. It certainly seemed wildly out of control at times. Maybe one or more motors intermittently cutting out? Any...

:-( Sorry to hear that. Yeah, every time I do it I steel myself for the possibility that it could end badly... so far I've been lucky, but I'm very aware that it's a fragile web of complicated software and hardware that's keeping the thing in the air and there are any number of things that...

Hi Mark Welcome to the forum, and glad you got your battery issue sorted! The bebop 2 is a great drone - I really enjoyed mine before I got the Anafi. Such a shame Parrot's left the consumer drone market. Enjoy!

Second trip to Mannum to check out the rising floodwaters, morning of 24 December 2022.

Thanks all - and yes, I enjoy flying over water but it does make for some nervous moments, especially when it's windy! I returned to Mannum nine days later, early in the morning on Christmas Eve, and took a few more shots as the floodwaters continued to rise. It was a lot calmer then so much...

I guess there are still a few of us left enjoying flying the Anafi... Floodwaters rising at Mannum in South Australia as the river Murray experiences a 1-in-50-year flood event. You can see in the video how windy it was on the day. The Anafi did really well, but I was getting constant high...

I see no-one's replied to this yet so I'll chime in... I've never owned a DJI drone so I can't compare, but I had the Bebop 2 and then the Anafi and I have to say I still really enjoy the Anafi. I love the fact that it's so compact, light and easy to just pull out and fly, particularly since I...

Absolutely stunning showcase of what the Anafi can do in the hands of someone who really knows how to use it - wonderful.

I have my Bebop 2 with Parrot backpack, genuine spare battery + genuine spare props for sale on eBay - auction ends Sunday, current bid of $AU251.50, in case anyone here is interested: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/304215758791?hash=item46d4ac17c7:g:fUYAAOSw-7Fhhnrn Everything's in good...

Excellent video - wonderful shots of some beautiful scenery, well done!

Another shot of the pink lake - this time cropped from a single frame.

Pink lake pano, St Kilda, South Australia. Stitched together manually with Hugin (through a process of trial and error as it was the first time I've tried to use it and found it pretty baffling), as I forgot the step of actually generating the pano in FF6 (!) and had downloaded my photos and...
