I am curious if anyone has used the streaming feature with Facebook Live and what your experience is when using it.  I tried it this morning and while streaming it looked fine but when I when to Facebook to watch it, it looked like I was taking a bunch of still photos with a clicking sound.  When I was flying it, I did try to take some still photos and I am wondering if that messed up the live streaming.  Any input would be appreciated.

Hi there, thank you for reaching out, Regarding with your concern when doing the Facebook live then you manage to take a picture as well it will be recorded or broadcast as well on the Facebook live that you doing.

Thanks, I just did another flight with FB Live and it came out perfect.

The Video streamed will be the video from your phone, with the sound being what is recorded on your phone. If there is any lag or anything, it would translate out to the stream. Personally, I have only gotten a stream with about 18 FPS average and that was with low wifi interference with my drone.

On a side note, if you livestream, can you record in full resolution at the same time? I thought about trying the Livestream but the downlink from the Mavic Air isn't really all that grand in my opinion and it would suck if you couldn't get good footage from what you were streaming in the first place.

I used it today. I always forget that the microphone is recording what I say. So my live was nothing but hearing me blow away the red flies from my face.

I would really like to do this as well as my Mavic Air 2 is better than the Zoom for Active Track and I'd like to ride and stream at the same time.
