Flight: July 4 at around 11am
Hazy condition due to high temp. at 32C.

Practice of Manual POI by adding Elevator Up/Down to try to keep same distance from drone.
It is very difficult as I use Mode-1 (Left stick – Elevator Up/Down, Rudder Left/Right) which need appropriate mixture of stick work.
Correction - Elevetor Push for forward movement. Elevetor Pull for backward flight.

Altitude information of FPV screen was based on the altitude of take-off point which was about 9m Above Sea Level (ASL).
FPV’s altitude showed the lowest at -4.1M which is actually about 5M ASL (-4.1M + 9M = 5.1M).

Drone settings.
Max. speed 16m/s

ATTI 10%, BRAKE 10%, YAW DIST. 25%, YAW SENSI. 25%

Drone camera settings.
Zoom 1.0X, Video mode HDR, WB Fluorescent, ISO Auto, Shutter Auto, EV -1.0, 4K30FPS, Video quality High, Color General, Metering Average, H.265, ND8 filter.

FIMI X8 4K30FPS Variable Frame Rate (VFR) files were converted to Constant Frame Rate (CFR) by WingsFromHeaven’s conversion program to avoid stutter.

With our expert WingsFromHeaven’s very valuable guidance, made Picture-In-Picture video consists of:
1. Base footage – CFR converted 4K30FPS drone video (No color grading)
2. FPV screen shot flight information - (top – height, distance, etc. bottom – Attitude Indicator and zoom, etc. information)
3. Flight Record information – Flight path, Stick movement, Battery information.

VFR files of above 2 and 3 were converted and adjusted to match up with CFR converted 4K30FPS drone video (synchronized).
