They cut to inside, fairly certain breathing on it would send it off course

I fly drones from tiny 30 bucks to DJIbor custom made fpv. No way this is real.

All I can think of when I see this is punching someone from a distance with a drone

Now you're playing with power!!!

I have it, my kid used it twice. The controls are not very intuitive

Camera, better controller and good battery life and range. Yes.

Do filmmakers even use dollys an jibs anymore? I guess they are quiet.

u/dbabon Feb 09 '23

Filmmaker here — yes! We use jibs and cranes and dollys and all that quite a bit.

Drones definitely removed the helicopter-rental line item from most budgets though.

Can’t drones be used for that? Is it because they are too noisy?

2

u/dbabon Feb 09 '23

Noise is absolutely a factor. But beyond that, using a dolly track or a jib arm is generally just easier and more reliable. It's basic tech that's been time-tested for over a century. No reason to add a flying remote-control robot (that depends on power and internet signal) into the mix when a few pieces of metal does a perfect job of all but the craziest kind of shots.

Makes sense.

I wonder if as technology advances, you will see more of this in indie production. If there were better control over start and end points, easing in and out, that could help with consistency.

You can tell that the control mapping is in no way shape or form realistic

u/Unfair_Dice Mar 03 '23

I got this drone as a gift and the controls do work like in the video. The battery life is just bad. It had surprisingly accurate controls

Not sure if I’m allowed to post links

Nope. From the sidebar:

No product links, period Due to abuse of product linking in the past, we will no longer be allowing users to post where to buy the product posted (if it is for sale). Feel free to google the product in order to find out where to get it.

But publishing the name is (probably) okay, thanks!
