After a long winter and 63 days of not flying I met with my FPV buddies on our favourite spot and we had loads of fun just fooling around with panes, drones and RC cars there. Thanks to footage donors and sorry to the plane I destroeyd. After my first crash with the fragile Chimera4 I flew with the near indestrucible 5" ERA - and it was a good idea ;)
Next time I'll have my Penguin repaired - as this is the most fun FPV meet plane I have. Greets to all FPVers out there and may your season start soon too - happy flying!

Got the chance to test this Field-Charger / Solar generator in my hangar. Looking forward when I can actually bring this with me on the field and charge my LIPO packs with (almost) infinite, free solar power. We just need some warm temps and sunlight :)
This resort on the maldivian Island of Dheru is called "Jawakara" and was the best island we explored so far (actually it's two islands connected via a 600m long bridge).
Best SETTINGS: 4k30 or 60fps (30 for low light) 4:3 aspect - so you can re-frame if you didn't have your subject centered well Rocksteady stabilization on, wide FOV Option: underwarter color
TRANSFER speeds: Nano (128gb version): ~500 mbytes/sec !!! Action5 (internal mem): ~300 mbytes/sec from SD card: ~80 mbytes/sec
BATTERYLIFE: really good efficiency! Action5 runs very long, little Nano runs "long enough" and is re-charged quickly with it's screen module... Never was an issue in our 2 weeks of snorkeling!
After fog creeped in for the better part of december I really started to crave for some sunlight. Last friday afternoon I took my DJI Air3 out for the first time after ages, drove up into the mountains - and was so amazed by both: tech tools and mother natures spectacular sense for dramatic scenery painting ;)
Is the DJI Osmo Nano worth adding to your drone? I compared it on my 5" drone to DJI O3 footage and on my cinematic 7" cruiser to the DJI O4 (with ND filter). I show you how to use Gyroflow and whilst testing I found a few surprises.
The Nano delivers noticeably better dynamic range and more filming options than DJI O3. It also delivers good battery life (considering the size) and lightning-fast file transfers!
BUT BE WARNED: The Nano is more prone to "jello" and its in-cam stabilization can struggle with drone vibrations, potentially ruining shots. Get ND Filters for the DJI Nano, I'm sure my friends at FreewellGear already have some in their shop!
PRO TIP: To unlock its full potential, ALWAYS film with Stabilization OFF and in WIDE FOV! Then, use Gyroflow in post-production for butter-smooth, controlled stabilization that truly shines. It takes a little extra effort, but the cinematic results are worth it!
Who is it for? Pilots seeking cinematic, natural-looking footage who are comfortable with post-stabilization and ensuring a super-stable drone mount.
Join me as I put the Chimera 4 travel drone to the ultimate test, capturing the stunning beauty of Samos Island (Greece) – from paradise beaches everywhere, through refreshing canyons to be explored and epic dives at the Kerkis, highest elevation on the island.
Canyon was the "Potami Waterfalls" a little west of Karlovasi. Beach from first shots is the Potami beach, Church is called "Agios Nikolaos Chapel Potami". Best fish on the island in our fav restaurant: Cohyli Restaurant (in Ireon).
We found Samos to be the nicest island of the few Greek islands we travelled to.
It was a wonderful day of flying – with good weather, a "Sturm" (the drink), and lots of fun at the airfield. Thanks to the organizers and also to everyone who helped rescue the poor penguin. Please let me know how you like videos in my native language (it wouldn't have been any different here – I can rarely persuade my colleagues to speak English for my video :)
One finding on this language experiment: if I do my video in my native language (German with some accent), It only translates into english. When I do englisch videos, it translates into MANY languages... Best, RCSchim
