This drone is amazing but the carrying bag....ummmm. a little cumbersom. Maybe something a little smaller in the future would be great. When you unbuckle it and flip over the top whe whole bag flips over and its hard for it to stay upright with all the weight from the backpack conversion.
I noticed I had one of the props out of balance from factory so I replaced it and it seems to not be shaking anymore but i'll keep an eye on it.
Also noticed when shooting in log there are a few hot pixels and I've noticed a few other users also have them in similar locations on the sensor. they dont seem to be visible in h264/265.

Super nice detail. Especially for low light.

For unedited night footage, that looks amazing. So you just changed the ISO to 1600 and no other changes?

Correct. This is unedited. Straight from camera iso 1600.

What did you do to get your drone to fly at night?  Mine is stuck on about 10 feet off the ground and won't go any higher.

Some of the better footage I've seen from a DJI product.

I watched it in 4K on a 32" 4K color corrected monitor and it looked like the edges were soft/blurred a little during different portions but the center was almost always pretty sharp.  Were you at 2.8 the entire time?  Might be worth a little more ISO and stop down for sharpness a little if the camera is acting typical.

All in all a nice little show reel.

10 feet off the ground might mean your not getting gps and the drone locks your altitude. whats the location?

Thanks. Yes I also noticed the same. I was at 2.8 the whole time. day shots at f4.5 get better results. I'll play around with it.

Outside no trees.  Suburb setting.  No tall buildings.
