Hy there!

I had my second flight with my drone. But when I checked my very first POI video, I got this:



I dont know why, but the video is not as smooth as it should be. Can you guys help me out and tell me what I did wrong?
Everything is at auto set up, I did not change any settings... At the other modes, like home lock, or manual mode is fine. Maybe the copter was too close to the transmittre, or it was too low?

I would be thankful if you could help me out please.

Have a good day !

When you turn into the sun, the video seems to get a bit overexposed. This is probably causing the issue. ND filter recommended.

Is it from the local cache or from the SD-card?  Try to fly in different heights and look for differences in recorded videos. ... and you may try various speeds for POI.

I was recording it to the sd card. After I copied it into my pc and after uploaded to YouTube. But ti be honest with you, the uploaded version is ok, but its quality is worse than the original. So it is strange. Now it is smooth enough but it lost quality. What can you advice for me? What is the best option to upload the videos without loose quality?

Many thanks!!!

If you record the video in 1080p HD then you can upload it directly to youtube. Youtube supports videos up to 1080p. You set the format mp4 and resolution to 1080p HD.,if this quality good enough for you.
Look it on a PC first and judge the result as ok or not ok before you upload this video to youtube. I hope that helps to solve that issue.

If you want to improve the POI effect, try slowing down the rotation. You also have prop shaddows as you face towards the sun, perhaps try a higher elevation and point the camera down more.

I have the same, the P3s is slightly laggy from around 400ft +, something that does not happen with the Mavic I noticed.

Cheers Bradders, but it was about 20 feet high, so there is no an issue.
Thanky for your reply anyway !
