[scrwright]

What are people using for basic video editing on windows 10, my old laptop had windows movie maker and I was happy using that (I said basic editing ) but its now discontinued

[GetCarter]

I'm either using iMove or the free GoPro edit software.

(on Mac)... but the GoPro will work on PC

I'm using Adobe Premier Elements.

Yes, two man operation and still a challenge keeping up with and focussed on the cars. Mainly taken with Inspire 2 but a bit from Inspire 1. Covered 31 miles going round in small circles making the pilot (me) a bit dizzy at times :-)

I have submitted my ops manual this week, it was a grind to get it right but it's done now. My biggest problem now is finding somebody reliable I can use to operate the camera as I fly the drone. The patting my head and rubbing my stomach approach is becoming tiresome and using waypoints only works for certain shots.
Well worth 31 miles of flight time by the way.

Congrats on getting the ops manual done, just the flight test to go then!

Having a camera man definitely helps (for us at least), spotlight pro on the I2 can do some basic shots very well, but fast moving like the Autograss and motocross needs a two man setup. We both fly (I1 and I2) and both operate the camera, keeps it interesting :-)

Best of luck

Cheers : I've completed the flight test already, this is the final hurdle for me. It should have been completed last year but life got in the way. All being well my first "real" job will be in mid June.

If it continues to be this quiet around this page I'm going to look for some Tumbleweeds to fly over.

[Tuna]

I've not had a chance to film lately - but did get to fly the new Yuneec hex earlier in the week - it's a stunning platform.

[feef]

With the Hexo+, I'd be filming myself so am lacking a little in content at the moment.

That is, of course, unless a slightly overweight middle-aged bloke running across fields tickles your fancy :P

[leggly]

I couldn't find any tumbleweeds so restorted to re-editing some of my old footage.
