- Some advice and tips for flying your drone from a ski. Taking some calculated risks to get those great shots.
Also, you can prevent the drone from powering up while catching by doing the following.... click on ADVANCED SETTINGS and turn off ENABLE VISION POSITIONING. Thanks shottayute2002 for the helpful tip.
DJI MAVIC PRO PHANTOM
Hey, nice video!
Some tips: don't make your hand go reach the drone, that is why the drone fights against you and puts extra force on the motors to "avoid crashing" or runs away.
It has a ground sensor for landing that I don't think you can disable, but you can easily work with that.
When the drone is above your hand, make sure your handle is firm, still and opened/flat to simulate a landing zone.
The drone sensor will think it is a regular ground, and if you hold the sticks DOWN, it will auto land on your hand w/o stressing the motors. Grab it only when it comes close/lands on your hand by itself.
No need for you to reach the drone and stress it.
Second: if for some reason you are stressing the motors too much, or something has gone wrong, just turn your drone upside down and it will shut off the engines immediately. It is a nice safety feature to always remember.
Put the drone in sport mode and sensors go off automatically, just thought I would try to help
Always fly the drone backwards towards you when coming in to land and catch on boat.. the control's will be true at that time. Left is left right is right.. if you have drone facing you you could accidentally go the opposite way you want and injury or crash.
Great advice. Thanks for posting this video.
You bet. Thanks for watching.
hi, nice video and one question, do you remember what time exactly you were flying the drone at the light house??
Great video as always. Quick tip. If you turn off the down ward facing sensors before landing, the motors will not power up like that when you are catching it.
I did that and it still consistently powers up hard.
WRESTLING & WAVERUNNER FISHING FAMILY I just gave it another try just to make sure and doesn’t power up like that for me. Under the same menu where you turn off the other sensors go to advance settings and turn off Enable Vision Positioning.
@@shottayute2002 Perfect. Thank you so much for this info. I will include it in the video description for others.
I’m still a little scared to transport the drone inside of the jetski like this
Me too. Will be jet skiing tomorrow AM w my mavic air 2s
Nice tips. It looks like you went through about the same learning curve as I did when I started flying my Mavic Air off my ski. One thing that caught me out is the return to home function when on open water... my controller lost connection and wouldn't reconnect, the drone went into return to home mode but the ocean currents had drifted me 100m from where the home point was originally set, luckily I was able to motor over and catch it before it went into the drink :) close call!
The thought of drone signal loss out on the water is pretty frightful. Glad to hear you did not lose the drone. Appreciate the feedback and best to you.
ey you guys! So nice to meet you I saw you over on our channel, came to say hi & see you guys make wonderful videos! Nice to meet you neighbors! Are you here full time too? I saw your Christ Free dive video... Loved it! My whole life here & people are kinda (fisherman) can be a little negative about the wave runners. I have to admit I REALLY LOVE your set up on those. I want one! lol!
Hi Kimmie, one of my subscribers asked me if I have ever run into you, so I had to check out your channel. I enjoyed watching a few of your videos and quickly subscribed. I love your content, especially that stroll around Key West. We are part time in Tavernier, but someday full timers. Currently setting up another Yamaha ski and will be revealing soon. Thanks for reaching out and look forward to running into you in the Key. Would love to get you on one of our skiis for a future video. Check out the last Yamaha ski project.... ua-cam.com/video/zrEJUYpXPXk/v-deo.html
