#GoodMorning #Gravel! An early meeting at work made me ditch #KidsOnBikes, but at least they’ve been present in form of their drone…🤡
#Cybina valley #forest was a great choice, because it’s windy today for the little #DJI #DJINeo fellow to follow!🥰

For the first time in many, MANY years I’ve used something else than mobile phone to record a video on my #bicycle ride.
The #drone seems to be fun and there’s plenty of interesting stuff you can do with it, I’m sure. But…
Every time you want to use it, you have to stop, deploy it, record and then take it back and resume the ride. It kills my joy of ride a bit. There’s also the hustle of combining footage from 2 different devices, which has made montage longer than I’d like to suffer…
@ohjames Well… As much as I’d like to use it, it’s not mine and I’m going to respect Peter’s ownership of the drone.
In the same time, the paradox is I have to control and moderate his use of it, because he’d abuse the shit out of it and wreck it on day one.
Also, the responsibility is mine, because the kid is mine and the drone is registered in my name, as Peter is a minor.
I think (!) I’m going to get a 360 camera in the end. Less hustle, fun takes.
@Deixis9 Yes. I have borrowed my son’s DJI Neo drone and simply used some of those smart modes, like follow, circle, etc.
I’m probably not going to do that very often, because is not mine after all and the montage is somewhat pain in the ass.
Too bad it cannot record sound on it’s own. But… it would be way to loud to do it reasonably. We might want to get an external mic for that…
@Deixis9 For the first drone, DJI Neo is nice. It’s not a toy, if you get “fly more” combo you get a remote to use with your mobile device and 2 extra batteries. Relatively inexpensive, around €230.
You can then use smart modes or control it freely via remote, but it is still easy to fly.
Neo 2 has more smart in it. It can for example follow but in front of you or side by side, has more collision sensors, etc.
Both last around 17 minutes on a charge…
@Deixis9 It has a basic obstacle avoidance but it really depends. There’s a youtuber - DC Rainmaker - he tested it in some more demanding places:
@ssamulczyk
If you wan to record yourself talking, then probably the best would be a lavaliere microphone with a solid wind muff.
You just plug that into whatever hardware you have (phone, dictaphone, etc.), press record on all devices, clap and go.
@dzwiedziu Sure thing. I’m not that much of a talker myself, but I’ve read it can record from whatever device is there paired to a mobile device, like earphones, mics, etc. while it is itself connected to that mobile.
Today I didn’t even bother doing it. Just straight to smart modes to grab some shots and head home. Might play with it more, though.
