It really needs max lightning not the dimmed cosy evening light and I also think the Motion controller is a way better choice for this one.
The video the customer wants is a complicated outdoor-to-indoor shoot. I'm supposed to fly down a street surrounded by tall buildings, light poles, strung lights, and other assorted obstacles, then turn at an intersection and fly through a park. Then I'm supposed to fly into an enclosed patio, fly the length of the patio, enter the bar/restaraunt, and do some more flying.
I had some concerns. The outdoor stuff was challenging but not impossible. I tried a test flight inside the bar. I lifted off from the floor and immediately got a low ambient light warning, and the drone started to drift. I landed immediately. I then tried lifting off from the top of the bar where there was more light. There was enough light to conduct a test flight.
Here is a link to a short video showing some of the outside video and the short interior test: https://vimeo.com/manage/videos/1022193475
After talking to the owner and better understanding his needs, I now know how to handle this job. I will fly the outdoor stuff with the Avata 2. I'll approach the patio and switch to a camera gimble (maybe the Osmo) for the interior stuff.
The experience has raised even more questions because I have another request for an outdoor to-interior video. I can fly down the two streets and position myself with a line of sight to the entry point, but I have no idea what would happen if I tried flying the interior while still positioned outside. Would the drone lose a connection as soon as I went inside? I am not clear how other people can do these fly-through videos where they start at a point far from the interior shot, enter through a window or door, fly around, and then exit through another door or window. How do they maintain a connection to the drone?
