DJI FPV

I got a new DJI FPV for Christmas. Here is the first flight.

The video quality is great but hard to share here. I converted the video quality from 4K: 3840×2160 at 50/60fps with 3:17 runtime @ 3.5GB down to 720p 30 fps shrinking it to 72.2MB.

Overall the flight was great for the first time. The controls were super easy. The heads up display gave great information without overdoing it. Return to home worked perfect. I let the battery drain down and it automatically returned to home with 10% battery remaining.

I did have the propeller guards on and it recognize them and reduced the performance. During full decent it did shake around some and I think that it is related to the guards. It also likely reduced the flight time. Next time I think I will go without.

Flight time was somewhat shorted than I thought it would be. I am glad I got the Fly More option that came with 2 extra batteries and a charging hub. The hub does only charge one battery at a time and can take an hour for each battery.

I was impressed by a few notifications. It noticed the propeller guards automatically and adjust the performance accordingly. I did go to 250M and it gave a warning about cross winds. There was zero wind a ground level.

I had a good time and look forward to going out again. I even registered for Remote Pilot Certificate from the FAA which was quite easy since I have my private pilots license.
