Unbelievable. This is the simplest thing to implement software wise and it drives me absolutely nuts when operating these drones.

The title says it all. Is there a way for the X5s to remember what the last setting was when switching between stills and video? This is super annoying to have to change the settings back every time I switch modes. Thanks,

SOLVED I just received an email from the FAA stating that when the airport closes it turns into Class G airspace. Happy flying!

That's what I guessed as the "LAANC is not available" message is the same as if I was asking for LAANC in class G airspace, it's not required.

Hi everyone, I've been using LAANC successfully around airports lately but I've run into a new issue. I'm trying to secure LAANC authorization around Santa Monica airport for a night flight (3 am) and I get this message: "The planned operation area falls outside of controlled airspace and LAANC...

I haven't been around lately and I was wondering if we ever reached a conclusion on the best video settings for the X5? A quick search didn't provide much of a consensus. Anyone know what are the best practices are now? Is D-log still crap? Thanks for your help!

Thinking of getting certified and would love to know what prep courses you guys recommend. Thanks!

Wondering how many of you actually shoot in D-Log. I find it unusable do to artifacts. Anyone else having this issue? If you don't shoot in D-Log then what settings do you use? Thanks,

What's amazing to see is no one talking about how the video quality using D-LOG is deplorable with the new updates. It's flat out unusable.

Having the same issue. I'm glad DJI acknowledges it. Would like an update asap though.

Where has it been "well documented"? I haven't read of people having issues? Is there another forum where more people share info?

So I've noticed an issue with D-LOG footage since the last update. I tried to do a scientific test as possible testing D-LOG, CINELIKE, and NONE. Using the same settings across the board I noticed what looks like compression problems with D-LOG. All the other modes seem fine. When shooting in...

That might be what I'm experiencing because this some of these shots look like garbage and I can't figure out why. I ran some test this afternoon and it looks like frame rate and frame size don't play that large a role. Some of the shots I got would look good and others would look horrible...

D-LOG for both and they were exposed properly. I'm gonna shoot another test today at 24fps and 30fps and see if there's a difference. I'll report back.

I ask because I filmed a scene yesterday at 4k 30fps and the trees look horrible. Complete fuzzy messes. It looks super low bitrate. Focus has been calibrated. Everything is in order. But it still looks like garbage. I checked a similar shot I filmed when I first got the Inspire Pro. It's...
