Pete, thank you for the comment. Unfortunately after the fires in 2017 my plans changed (all good though). Perhaps in a future I can restart making videos. Until then, fly safe :)

@@sonomabydrone3902 best of luck

on post editing 🙂

You don’t need DEWs to do this kind of damage….just the right conditions and a match.

Yes, you can fly around the subject still, which is why one would really use this mode.

These homes burned with absolutely no intervention. When left to burn….especially with wind….structures will. Burn down to foundation. Green vegetation immediately next to incinerated structures is not unusual for a wildland urban interface fire.. There are many other historical fires that have done exactly the same thing: Bel-Air Fire 1961, Laguna fire 1970, Oakland hills firestorm 1991, Laguna Beach fire 1993, Cedar fire 2003…..just to name a few of them.

@@babybrat2958 Bullshit.

Right but the Tubbs fire was started on private power lines not controlled by PG&E

@@robsalisbury2550 That final determination by the courts was the PG&E was responsible for the Tubbs Fire.

@@jdgoodwin325 so the courts just ignored the facts of what ACTUALLY HAPPENED. The fire DID start on a private system, I have been to the origin of the fire and seen where it started.

@@robsalisbury2550 The jury determined the principle of "inverse condemnation" was applicable because PG&E is an investor-owned utility regulated by the state. Inverse condemnation is a legal principle that allows a public entity to be held liable for damage caused by its equipment, even if it was not negligent. The state court decided that PG&E was negligent in maintaining its equipment or vegetation around power lines and that negligence was a factor in causing the Tubbs Fire. To my knowledge, PG&E did not appeal this decision. You should have informed PG&E's attorneys that you have compelling evidence that could have saved them billions of dollars. The question I have is: why did you keep that knowledge to yourself and allow this investor-owned utility to be on the hook for $6.2 billion? If your statement is true, then perhaps PG&E could file a lawsuit against YOU for withholding this important and special knowledge.

Its not an oven with one common temperature. The wooden fence and leaves in the street were clearly at the edge of the burn area and away from the destroyed house by quite a bit. The problem with looking at these videos is that you lose orientation and its like looking through a keyhole. You armchair fire investigators blame lasers and microwave weapons, but you were never in Coffey Park actually there with boots on the ground. I was. My interest was in Area 1 by Miller, Crestview, and Skyview Dr. A guy on Skyview Drive saved maybe 8 homes on his side of the street by hosing off one neighbors yard and bushes as well as his own. He refused to leave. The wind direction Northeast to Southwest actually helped him. If lasers and microwaves did this, why did 3500 people escape unharmed? 5 people in 1500 destroyed homes died. Where are all of the microwave skin burns and retina damage? How do lasers go through the thick smoke that was blowing through? Why weren't vehicle electronics or cell phones destroyed by microwaves? Because this event was a firestorm driven by winds that did this damage.

1500 homes burned, 5 people died in Coffey Park. About 3500 escaped. Everybody living there has at least 2-3 cars and they took the daily use one to escape. Coffey Park is well under way a year later to being rebuilt with new homes and many residents are returning.

Hello, I hope this information was helpful for you. If you have any other question please let me know. Or if you have an idea for a video for the Mavic also comment. Best regards :)

Glad this helped you out :)

Marauder Mitchelli, Thank you for te comment.. I hope this helped you out... cheers :)

Sonoma by Drone yes it did but I’m still struggling to capture sound on the video. Thank you

The files stored on SD cards labeled DJI_**** dont have sound. they store only video. If you want the files with sound you can find them on your DJI app under "EDITOR". These files are cached files. Resolution is not the best but they have sound. I hope this is what you are looking for. Regards.

Sonoma by Drone huge thank you

Martin Tran, Great to know that this info was of help to you... Best luck :)

Hello Edson Costa. Thank you for the comment. I Hope this was useful for you. Regards :)

Mr. Jones, Thank you for the comment. Best wishes happy flying :)

Hello Sir, I use an Ipad with Cellular, although cellular is not necessary. I just prefer that way. Also, yes it helps me a lot for cinematic filming and photography because the screen is 3 times bigger than a regular phone. Also, please note, because of the setup and size it becomes a little bit clunky to move around. But overall I love using the ipad over the iphone.

Thank you Sanoma.

hangerq57, thank you for the comment... Hope to keep creating more vids.... kinda rained out this time of the year but I'll get back once weather gets better... best luck :)

Hello Rick Dynesius... (1) Yes it stops and hovers and (2) it is NOT necessary to have the control with you. Active track features follow the subject that is on the "screen". Please dont be confused with the "FOLLOW ME" feature which the Mavic follows the control. That is another feature which is not covered on the Active track series. Thank you for the comment :)

Oh,thanks for the reply, I didn’t know that. Good information and well presented.thanks.. Keep that golf game up but keep doing these drone videos

Hello xbpbat21x, thank you for commenting. YES, highly risky if you dont have the control in your hand. What I have learned to do when not having the control in my hand is to "rehearse" or plan the shot ahead of time. If you can see, the video at 5:19, going through the trees, was well planned just in case of anything :) Just a suggestion, try as much as possible to have control at your hand at all times

Why?

dont ask why and research it

@Mowac absolutly :)

Foolish uneducated statements

Donald Lawson id rather be a fool in the eyes of mens wich think they are educated and yet totally ignore theyve been programmed to believe the lies then a fool in the eyes of God wich love his childrens so much and yet he let them their freewill to do evil or good... hell and heaven are real ... chose wich one you want to live by repenting or not

Hello Julio G. Thank you. Glad you liked it. Hope to bring more videos next year. Hope you have a great new year :)

drew jenn, thank you for the comment. The video was shot over a month the fires took place. cleanups began weeks ago by the time already. I dont believe vehicles were flipped over because it may take more than winds for that. I am no an expert, but I think that in tight neighborhoods would not be possible to flip a vehicle with just gust of wind like that... anyways, glad that time is long gone by now. Tons of people are still struggling after loosing all their belongings.

Doesn't look like a crazy scary windy fire does it?

I know this might be hard to believe but we actually kept her neighborhood clean. Besides, heavy winds and extreme heat burned up all the debris. And the roads were not clean it may look that way in the photos but if you were there you would have seen the debris. Just like the rest of us.

@@RealLifeFinance you clearly were not here. So keep your doubts to yourself.
