Hey everyone,

First time here and first post. Excited to be here and learn as much as i can through tutorials and user experiences. After my 2nd flight , i notice that the propellers are always in the camera view. Doesnt matter if its set for takeoff, hovering or accelerating. Ive looked at aspect ratio and other options however all i can surmise is that the propellers will always be in the shot unless i angle the camera or remove them in post edit ?

Another way is to buy an ND filter and put it on the lens. ND filters will force the camera taking longer time for each frame and thus makes the propeller 'disappear'

If you tilt the gimbal upward and move forward, the props won't be in the shot. The drone was designed to film while going forward at speed. Also, as the post above said, ND filters will help remove the props but not entirely.

There's also an image correction option in the goggles which reduce the frame and cut out the props but you get a smaller aspect ratio as a result.

This answer is total and complete BS. The purpose of an ND filter is to reduce the amount of light entering the sensor. It does not magically make the props vanish from view or footage. The only way to remove the props in view from footage is to alter the settings in the goggle menu's.

How about mounting an Osmo Action 2? This would remove the propellers while keeping a large FOV.

I apologize for learning about your concerns regarding the propeller problem. To facilitate a more effective resolution, would it be possible for you to share a sample video illustrating this issue? I anticipate your reply.
