Just bought a set of polarpro filters which includes a polarizer, nd8, and nd16. This is my first time using filters and I just have this feeling that they are gonna pop off during flight. Now I went to test them today but when I got to my usual flying location and was stetting up the drone there was some high gusts of wind so I didn't get a chance to fly today. I’m gonna head out tomorrow and give it a go hoping that everything will go smooth. Also, is it safe to use the filters when you fly in sport mode or is that to risky?

Thanks!

Hi, sir. If you use PolarPro, it will not affect the flight performance of spark. Please do not feel worry about it. Thanks for your attention.

Yet to experience any PP or DJI ND filter falling off. Just make sure you attach it properly before take off and you’ll be fine.

The flight went good. Although, I’m still a bit hesitant flying on sport mode.

Please try to test them in 360 pano mode and tell us if it works. I’ve read some filters have problems with 360s

Im a newbie to drones and I got sparky a few weeks ago...

Just had another two flights and the filter stayed on with no issues. I’ll be testing sport mode shortly in a few hours with the filter and see what happens. As for the 360 pano I have no clue how to do that lol. I’ll be checking that as well so I’ll keep you guys posted.

Thanks for all the support and posts. I appreciate it!

When you have camera ready you can select options below the button that releases the shutter.
On the second tab the option on top should be modes for the camera.
Select pano and now you have different options of panoramas shown on the bottom (sphere, vertical etc.).
