    Hi there, it's probably a silly question, but here goes. I watched this video and thought I'd give it a go. So, you end up with three folders of hyperlapse videos, which all have the same name. So, when I try to put them into DaVinci, it won't let me do this. Can you help me, please?

    • @amoktimeflies
      @amoktimeflies 6 днів тому

      Hi Clive - Don't worry - I know exactly what you you're talking about and it confused me when I first did hyperlapses too! The 'HYPERLAPSE' folder actually (and confusingly!) just contains each individual photo the drone takes for each hyperlapse. You just need to check your DCIM folder and you should find the finished hyperlpases in there - you will probably have .lrf files, (Low Resolution Files) created for reviewing on the Remote - the files you want to download and then bring in to Davinci are the .mp4 files (you can delete the .lrf files). Note - you *can* use these for building the hyperlapse manually in DR, but that's slightly advanced stuff that I haven't got a handle on yet, and need to spend some time on before I make a vid about it. That should have you sorted (and you've also anticipated a tip I'm going to be including in a vid that's in production at the moment! 😂). If you do have any other issues though or the above isn't clear feel free email me through the channel and I'll be happy to provide further help with screenshots etc... 🖖

If you're working your way through the back catalogue, I will apologise now for some of my earlier non-waffly stuff, although you will still probably find it relaxing and interesting. And yes - every view, like, comment and sub helps - sharing and adding to a playlist helps even more I think.

      You are very welcome mate and thanks for watching! You should be perfectly safe with anything under 250g as long as you fly by the FAA rules - here's a bit of a rabbit hole for you to explore 😉: www.faa.gov/uas/recreational_flyers For when you do get your drone, a few people have found the vid linked below helpful : ua-cam.com/video/zQ5g2pSgcQ4/v-deo.htmlsi=GTXWeLdHTgyKzvix If the bug really bites you, you may want to take your part 107 as well as this gives you more flexibility with your flights and also allows you to perform commercial work (roof surveys, real estate etc). pilotinstitute.com/part-107-reasons/#:~:text=The%20FAA%20allows%20Part%20107,without%20an%20anti%2Dcollision%20light) Best of luck!🖖

    Amok, today I discovered another mystery, I calibrated my drone and as I took off all commands froze, only obstacles avoidance was functioning and I could not catch drone by hand and had to wait battery to exhaust , drone was raised about 3 m height. Upon low batter signal it changed landing position about six meters away. How ever after recalibration all commands were in order.

      @@nardesh127 did you try switching it to sport mode - if it won’t descend when I’m hand catching I normally do that. I had a weird thing last night as well - went to rerun a waypoint hyperlapse from a previous night and it started off going up then started descending rapidly past the trees so it went out of sight - stopped it at 27m height and brought it home, but boy was my heart racing! Seems our little buddys still want to surprise us occasionally! 🖖

    Comment and Question: Great video and I appreciate the mix of information and humor. That was humor, right? :) So you mention you were using 3 batteries, were these the sub 249 batteries or the Plus batteries? Thanks a million sir.

      Hey Larry! Thankyou so much - Yes it's the kind of self deprecating humour us Brits have drilled into us from birth, so it comes quite naturally! And secondly - It's almost impossible here in the UK and EU to get the Plus batteries, so nope - those were the standard batteries with roughly about 20 (terribly tortured) charge cycles each. Thanks for you comment! All the best! 🖖

    • @amoktimeflies
      @amoktimeflies 12 днів тому

      It's basically 3 hyperlapses taken one after the other - the trick is to get the battery changed double quick and then get the drone back up in the air to exactly the same position and start the same hyperlapse again. Thanks for watching!🖖

    You know, that you can change the Direction the Drone is facing after locking in the course when doing a Hyperlapse in Course Lock mode? Your left to right hyperlapse is way faster to start and you can do a 500 shot Hyperlapse on one battery this way - no need for setting waypoints first - it is my most used way to do hyperlapses ^^

      Thanks for pointing that out! Yeh - I am planning on going into a deeper dive on the hyperlapse functions in the future - this was more of a quick summary. Might take a bit of practice to do a 500 shot course lock left to right - would need to do a bit of maths to make sure I don’t accidentally go BVLOS!. Thank for your comment & thanks for watching!🖖

    6th July 2024 - Just had a copyright strike on the music used in the Lightcut edit. Which is why the music cuts over me talking at the end of the Finished Lightcut video as I had to replace it. with something from the YT Audio library and for some reason YT thought the music carried on a bit after it ended. This also happened to me with the DJI Fly editing video that I produced shortly after this one, but I managed to catch that before it went out. It seems that someone in some territory somewhere is secretly buying the rights to what was originally DJIs royalty free music. So just a word of warning - if you plan to use Lightcut or DJI Fly (and very probably DJI Mimo) for editing UA-cam vids and have a monetised channel, you might want to pick a music track from a third party such as the UA-cam Audio library where you KNOW the music will DEFINITELY be royalty free. I'll probably do a vid about that... 🖖
