Ask Drone U

Hello and welcome to today's show. Our question comes from Chris, who is having interference and distortion issues on his iPad when shooting videos with his Inspire 1. His question is what can I do to fix these issues? Is it simply wi-fi signals in the area? These are certainly things we want to help you get resolved, Chris. So hopefully we can point you and our listeners in the right direction. Stay tuned, and thanks again for the question! Get your questions answered: http://askdroneu.com/.

On today's episode of Ask Drone U we're thrilled to welcome Rob back to the studio after a well deserved vacation. And today's question comes from Martin in Montreal, Quebec. He has a question specific to filming boating and water sports. Martin will be leaving soon for the Greek isles to go on a sail boat trip (wish we were joining you there). He is asking what tips and tricks should I know about filming with a drone from a boat? We most certainly have a ton of experience in this arena, Martin, and we're glad to help you out. If you would prefer to just take us along to do all the filming for you then that's fine too. Thanks for the question, and have a fun, safe trip! Get your questions answered: http://askdroneu.com/.

Today's question comes from Quadguy27. While on vacation recently, he was granted permission to film a 4th of July fireworks display in a small Maryland town. The Mayor and Chief of Police gave him the go ahead, plus he had them sign waivers. He would like to post the footage on YouTube, but is concerned due to all the backlash that can often follow. So his question is will all of that matter if he posts it on YouTube? Or will he still have to potentially deal with people and even the FAA? We appreciate the thorough question, Quadguy27. We go through our thoughts on this, and give some tips to help you out. Great job on the accent too! Thanks for listening. Get your questions answered: http://askdroneu.com/.

Our question today comes from Brett in Illinois. It sounds like he is interested in building a drone and not only asks if we have any course work on that (which we do), but is also curious if it's cheaper/better to build one on his own vs. buying one already done? We'd be happy to give you some direction on that, Brett, especially since we just built one a few months ago. So stay tuned and we'll get your question answered on today's show.

Our question today comes from our good friend, Kyle, who has a question about video editing. He's using Adobe Premier, and when he takes the video from the SD card and puts it in Adobe it looks great. But after he's done editing it looks grainy and not so good, like the quality went down. So he's asking is there a setting I'm not using that I should be? Or is that normal and how it is? Thanks for the question, Kyle. Here's your answer and we hope it helps!

On today's episode we've got a very special guest joining us live. He may not be "in person", but he is live over the phone. His name is Vic Moss and he is a very well respected aerial photographer. In fact, Vic will be joining us live (again) for next Monday's webinar to discuss panoramic aerial photography, all the details you need to know in order to capture the best "panos" and how you can turn that niche into a thriving business. You can register for that on our Facebook page. But today we're actually talking about a recent incident he went through that we think will help you. In today's show we'll talk about how you can counter a company passing over you to hire a 333 exempt pilot...when you know you're much better. Stay tuned and Vic will give you some very practical advice you can run with right away. Get your questions answered: http://askdroneu.com/.

Our question today comes from David. He's in the process of looking for a new gimbal for his octo rig. It currently uses a Wukong, but I will upgrade to an A2 in the near future. There seems to be a lot of options out there, but not many of them are proven to work well. I want a gimbal with a great auto tune function, and one that can carry a full DSLR. Davind is asking what do you think would be the best overall gimbal for me to help meet these needs? This is a great, thorough question, and one that many of you may struggle with due to so many options. So we'll help you narrow it down so you'll know which option you should go with. Thanks for the question, David. We're glad to help! Get your questions answered: http://askdroneu.com/.
