What's a good yet not pricey & complex soft app there is, for editing videos (including 4k) off the Mavic ..?
I'm not pro and rather newb on video editing, but, I would like at least more common functionalities - such as cut, paste, transition effects, text, titles, filters, music tracks, fades, etc - And also :  to those speed-ups (dunno what they called ... ) people do : you know, like first slow then fast-fast fast- then back to slow/normal (if that makes sense ).

And, I also want to be able to freeze a 4K video, and , take / save full resolution of 4K photo / still image.

Recommendations are most welcome ...      ( I know Adobe clound stuff, never used, I know is prob most Pro or known, but, there are /is probably more apps out there ..??)

DJI Go 4 app's Editor keeps crashing on me, when I try to do a 4k project .... I dunno if its the memory limit, or what, but - that app has serious bugs/limitations.

BTW, I'm mostly PC/Windows based. But I do use iOS on iPhone & iPad which I use to fly the drone, and for quick Go4 App edits (auto generated mostly).

You mean this ?  ->
Seems horribly expensive, and requies specialized hardware .   I'm not in that market for sure.

"At NAB 2010 in Las Vegas, in April 2010, Blackmagic Design announced three new pricing models for Resolve, with a new software-only macOS version retailing for $995, the macOS version with the Advanced Control Surface (previously branded as Impresario by da Vinci Systems[13][14]) retailing for $29,995, and licenses for the Linux version (supporting multiple-GPUs for increased performance) retailing at $19,995 (with the most advanced configuration available retailing for under $150,000).[15] Before this change, the pre-built versions of Resolve had been the only available options, selling for between $200,000 and $800,000, which was common industry practice at the time.[15] "

Davinci Resolve, it's a bit of a learning curve but it's worth it.

Power director does a pretty good job.  Not that expensive either.

I started using Davinci Resolve 16 a few months back.  Loads of online support and pretty easy.  Once you learn the basics - you can throw some stuff together really fast.

Free version of Resolve, or iMovie on iOS / OS devices (it's free too) .... ultimately though, Adobe Premiere!

The iMovie is Ok kinda, use it on my iPhone . But I don't see it can do what I want.

Adobe is aweomse, but have to pay monthly subscriptions for the cloud.

Yeah, bit of a pain in an iPhone - better on an iPad or desktop, but iMovie has all the functionality you listed at the top of the thread. If you're a student you can get some pretty good Adobe cloud deals too, just sayin'. Good luck with your quest!

Yesterday started with Free Resolve, at least learned how to render / re-render to another format. Will proceed from here learning it more, see if I can do what I want with it.
