A spontaneous visit to a nearby vertical cave.Rappelling down through a 25 meters shaft into a beautiful stalactites cave, Climbing the way back to safe ground was abit more challenging and few had to be pulled up using a pulley

In the cave, where there is no GPS reception and light is low, the drone was wading in the air and it was not really possible to use it...
I wish DJI would have their drone more usable in low light and no GPS environments such as this one...

CRANK UP THE VOLUME, HIT PLAY & SET FULL SCREEN

Taken using DJI Mavic 2 Pro, DJI OSMO Action, and, the step son was a Fujifilm X-T3 camera

Nicely done.    - Ive flown the M2P without GPS without any issues but never in the dark.   Was it the OA that was causing the issue?

Spectacular footage.

the problem is that when it's dark, the drone has no visual reference to stabilize it-self ( even w the downwards lights on ) and is wading in the air, which is a bit scary when flown in confined space...
it's the same as switching off the downwards looking sensors while there is no GPS reception...

I wish DJI will have that improved in future versions of the drone

Nice job .

Good job mate
New sub here

I guess we need ATTI mode which they locked us out of with the latest firmware upgrades.

They need to add a radio beacon and multiple receivers on the drone for triangulation, something like what the Skidio drone has implemented

Very nice work!

Very nice video
