Mavic Air I am recording to a simcard on the MA 64G U3. standard recording.
My question when recording it will only recorde for 4 mins. and then start another file for another 4 mins.
I was wonder if I have to turn something on to get a continuous record.

Thanks

The air will limit your clip length. This is normal, but its very easy to just line those clips up in post and there should be no gap and they should appear as one shot. I'd suggest shooting shorter clips anyway though as it makes your footage a lot more manageable in the long run. Happy Flying!

Your clips will be longer if you shoot 1080p.

Thre is nothing you can do about it since it is a limitation on the file size due to file system used on the SD card. https://forum.dji.com/thread-108757-1-1.html

As others have stated, it's not a matter of recording time - it's a matter of file size limitation. FAT32 has a max file size of 4Gb (rounded), so depending on the resolution you set your recording to will depend on how many minutes you capture per file. Setting 4K vs 1080 will clearly fill that 4Gb faster.

But the break in files should be seamless, and you can always post-edit the segments together for a contiguous record. Just remember to save the newly combined video using the same frame per second rate, else it may appear jerky on playback.

Rudy, there is a file size limit of the camera which aims at protecting the video files that you recorded. So you can try to change the video size like hallmark007 suggested.
