    So, how to parallax with a drone. It's fun. It can be dangerous, it's lucky I crashed into an abandoned building, it could have been worse for me and the drone. Filming parallax with the DJI Mini 2 is much like filming parallax with any drone, the great thing is we can zoom in 2x on the Mini 2 giving us a somewhat long lens. It looks great and adds to the parallax effect. The longer the lens the more apparent the parallax, the background will spin at a faster rate giving us this cool Hollywood look. Parallax with a drone is not an easy move to pull off, especially the DJI Mini 2, as you have to do this 100% manually. Using a drone such as the DJI Mavic 2 Pro you can program it to circle continuously whilst also being able to adjust distance and height. Practice, it's a lot of fun and even comes in handy with the bigger drones.

      It's a very important to practice as much as possible before going on a real shooting location (abroad vacation etc.). Mini 2 is very good in terms of flying in the city because of the OcuSync. So practice as much as possible otherwise you'll ruin your important shots

I'm working as a freelance filmmaker since 2016 but since pandemic I started losing what I want to do with my filmmaking career, I stopped going out and shoot, you know, enjoy the process.

      haha, sometimes I think I call it a she, depending on my mood 😂 Crashing is a good way to learn to fly, it definitely made me think twice about flying parallaxes too close to cell towers and walls now 😂

      That's nothing to worry about, it's part of the process, and no doubt the best way to learn that crashes happen. Now it's out of your system don't let it slow you down but make you a better pilot. If some glue can help then that's great, if not, I'm sure DJI can help you out. Heads up Rej!

    Glad to see you stitched Humpty Dumpty back together again! I did see at amazon replacement arms with motors for mini 2 run bout $23 each...
    Your optimistic attitude is amazing, keeps your videos very fun to watch.....Spring finally here, will be flying way more often, chance for me to master the mini 2 coming months.....So far love this drone for price point n other reasons like no registration here in USA.
    I had adapted your tuning parameters for rotation speeds for various flight modes,as I have gained experience finding I am increasing rotation speed tuning even bit higher.

    • @PhillipSkraba
      @PhillipSkraba  Před 3 lety +1

      Thank You! Yes, the crosshairs come in very handy when flying a manual parallax. It took a little bit of glue and it flies like it's new, been out on quite a few flights recently.
      For its price point this little drone is incredible. I have a few drones, and honestly, I use this one 99% of the time. DJI really did a good job! Yes, having quicker rotation is quite helpful, I get very frustrated if it's too slow, especially if I need to scout quickly.

    Awesome post, inspirational! Especially to a newb like me. But I am confused: at 6:50 you show the drone spinning counterclockwise and in your recordings, like 1:08, it's clear that the drone is turning left/counterclockwise. But at 6:44 you show and explain that the left stick is pushed to the right, which would turn the drone right/clockwise. What did I miss?

    • @PhillipSkraba
      @PhillipSkraba  Před 3 lety +3

      Thank You Sergey! Yes, it sounds logical that the right should be to the right and the left to slightly to the left, and it probably was, but I think I had such an emotional day yesterday my mind probably played tricks on me. Bottom line, drop the hammer using the right stick to the top right, and then us the left stick to adjust the image so it is all in the middle. Depending on your speed and tightness of your circle, that's where you'll left thumb will turn up. Adjusting it you might be off to the left or to the right slightly. It's all about practice and feeling it out.
