Very nice vid !! I was wondering how did you take off and land in that powder snow ??

[@TordKarlsen]

Finally someone using it while skiing, been waiting for it! thanks :)

[@winteroptix]

Active track is very convenient! Thanks.

[@winteroptix]

@LC If you do not operate (active track only), the height of the drone is the same.

[@knutSchevik]

Yes, finally!!!!

[@TordKarlsen]

Is it possible to combine active track with terrain follow?

[@winteroptix]

@Tord Karlsen hill climb is ok. but downhill is need to operation.(throttle down)

[@realistindenial]

Nice, but a little closer/tighter might be more interesting.

[@mistermulticopter5336]

とても素敵なビデオ

[@airsoftcompetitions]

Fabulous video it looks like you had the same issues I had with it though it tracks you but it's altitude increased as you went down the mountain?

[@user-xu4ju8uv8b]

OMG!..such a crisp and sharp footage straight right from the mavic..wonderful editing beautifully captured..can't wait for mine to arrive..😊

[@winteroptix]

Thank you.Please enjoy flight with mavic!

[@2239968]

no ND filter and that smooth of video in bright sunlight? Pretty fantastic.

[@winteroptix]

This footage was no ND filter. But, using filter is good probably the better.

[@nickolicious22]

Did you just throw your controller and phone in your bag while skiing then? No issues with the controls being pushed around?

[@luisfranco9394]

Amazing video, what advice can you give me pls to flying my mavric in cold weather? Breathtaking video! ! lovely background music. keep it up. wow.

[@winteroptix]

Please refer to the under-mentioned. Hot Tips for Flying in the Cold(Via DJI) 1. Make sure batteries are fully charged before each flight. 2. Warm batteries before flight. We recommend using a battery heater. 3. Hover the aircraft for around a minute to allow the battery to warm up. 4. Do not continue flying if battery voltage drops below 3.2V.

[@xtramirez44]

Can you make the drone follow closer or is it one preset?

[@bradsherwin8149]

Do you transport your Mavic in a hardshell case inside your backpack? Im scared to take mine up slopes with me incase i fall over with it in my backpack.

[@JamesAndrewsHI]

Great footage! Did you have issue with the temperatures when taking off? Like low battery voltage due to the cold?

[@winteroptix]

Thank you! I warmed up the battery so there was no problem.

[@sdborn8667]

Isnt it forbidden in Austria by law? Cause I think to bring mine mavic for filming in unhabited areas?

[@wolfamri]

Thanks for sharing - exactly what I had in mind. Too bad it doesn´t keep the vertical distance to the skier when skiing downhill :(

[@CodyPexton1]

PHOTO1x1 Free Photography Course the mavic does do that. They just didn't have the setting on

[@wolfamri]

Hi Cody, thanks for the answer. May I ask you which setting that would be? I just returned from a skiing trip and was flying manual because of that - unfortunately now I´m not in the movies ;).

[@ChristianBacker]

isn't it able to hold the height above ground?

[@seven823]

Excellent shot!

[@winteroptix]

Thank you!!

[@user-qk9xx6xn4i]

はぁ〜。溜息しか出ません。美しすぎる映像。美しすぎる立山。美し過ぎるシュプール。、、、、こける姿さえ美しく感じます。

[@BuddBieber]

Beautiful!

[@winteroptix]

Thanks!

[@3939tm]

もう何度も見てます。映像が本当に綺麗です。そして、そんじょそこらのドローン映像とはやはり…レベルが違います。流石です。ありがとうございました。m(._.)m

[@winteroptix]

ありがとうございます！！ いえいえ、得意なジャンルなだけです(；´∀｀)　恐縮です（汗；

[@omarionfoley]

hi, great video thank you so I have a question maybe you already answer when you use active track, the drone can fallow you a Lil bit closer or he stay at his altitude ? when you use active track the drone can go down at your altitude or close your altitude? cause I wanna know when you go down if the drone can go down automatically I hope you understand sorry for my English I'm french ;-)

[@winteroptix]

Thanks. The altitude does not decrease. Downhill is need to operation.(throttle down)

[@buddieG420]

i just bought mine yesterday, i just found out it will only work for like a minute under 32 degrees F. how is this suppose to be good for skiing if it can't operate below freezing?

[@winteroptix]

The temperature was minus 5 degrees（Celsius) at this time. I warmed the battery before the flight.

[@kubotakousuke1051]

excellent !!　素晴らしい動画ですね。 見た目には粉雪に見えても、sun-crust とか、wind-crust とか、結構厳しい雪質ではないか、とお察しいたします。 その雪質でも、皆さん、パラレルとか、Wedeln とか、たいへん高レベルですね。

[@PapitzFishing]

やべぇ！！！！！すげぇ！

[@user-gr3sd4tx6c]

美しくて、感動しました。

[@jbarnes1960]

Awesome!

[@kair5913]

初立山おめでとうございます。気持ち良さそうですね。今年は山に沢山雪が降るといいですね。

[@winteroptix]

ほんと、山にたくさん雪が欲しいです！！

[@nelsonmai5410]

What video settings did you use on the Mavic Pro? Going skiing this weekend and I'm bringing my Mavic Pro!

[@winteroptix]

Thank you. The setting is normal (default).

[@nelsonmai5410]

Thank you!

[@bakeblaker01]

What was the temp outside? Just stock mavic or with thermal stickers on it or anything?

[@winteroptix]

The temperature was under minus 5 degrees at this time. I warmed the battery before the flight.

[@VernalFilm]

Nice video! Can it follow closer to the skiers while in Actice Track? Thanks 👍

[@winteroptix]

The skier is faster than the active track. If the slowly skiing , it is possible to follow closer to the skiers. Thanks!

[@VernalFilm]

Thanks for answer! I wish it could follow a little closer...like a follow-cam.

[@EM-ht7vu]

Very Nice. May I know what's the setting (i.e. d-log, none, etc)?

[@winteroptix]

Thank you! Color setting is normal(default)

[@EM-ht7vu]

thank you :)

[@wranglerthang9515]

when skiing in tracking mode, does the Mavic change altitudes as well, meaning following you down the slope? or does the altitude stays the same, just moves horizontally?

[@blogospheric]

Klemens Bachleda I've been wondering the same thing. Hope we get a reply. :-)

[@winteroptix]

I operated the altitude manually.(throttle down)

[@breatheeasyalaskatv4554]

How did you do it manually while skiing?

[@skibumwa2001]

The force is strong with this one....

[@satheesh42k]

Yeah how did you do that when skiing?

[@nonesounique]

Can Activetrack on the Mavic Pro really follow you downhill? If so, for how long or how far downhill before it loses you? Also, have you tried positioning the drone tracking you in front of you whilst you snowboard down the hill, meaning fly the drone backwards in Activetrack mode? Please share your experiences. Thank you.

[@winteroptix]

The first person, the second person, the third person, the fifth person are Active Track. However, I did throttle operation.(Throttle down) I did not lose sight of the target this time. >>"fly the drone backwards" I have not tried it.

[@nonesounique]

Thank you winteroptix for your remarks. Much appreciate. I would like to try the active track in Lake Tahoe (CA) sometime this winter. If you happen to try active track (flying the drone backwards whilst tracking you), please share a video. Looking forward to seeing this!

[@ruo_8387]

おお‼実にgreat‼ bgmもいいし、何より圧倒的画質のよさで感動しました‼‼ この動画でドローンが欲しくなりました(^-^)

[@winteroptix]

ありがとうございます！！！

[@huzi862111]

very very nice!!

[@winteroptix]

Thanks!!!

[@KaloyanGeorgiev93]

Super Video! Which is the song?

[@winteroptix]

Thank you!! Music is D-elf, "Quantization Illusion"

[@884kaz0]

いや～ 映像も音楽もかっこいいですね～　Active Trackでは、どの位の早さま追従できるんでしょうか？

[@winteroptix]

ありがとうございます。全力で滑ったら追いつかないですねー。ゆっくりとした滑りやショートターン主体なら追従できると思います。

[@884kaz0]

早速の返信ありがとうございます。冬に欲しいアイテムです。

[@MarnusTredoux]

There is some interference at 1:06. Its most visible at the top of the frame. Is this from warp stabilizing? It looks different to what I have seen warp stabilizing do.

[@winteroptix]

Non Effects. That is probably "jello".

[@MarnusTredoux]

That is strange. Would jello not occur as a result of fast horizontal motion? that part of the shot is fairly stable. Bizarre. It looks like some kind of electronic interference as it looks like waves.Anyway, well done on a beautiful sequence! I eagerly await my pre order of the Mavic and seeing all the beautiful footage makes me even more excited!

[@winteroptix]

For sure, it is strange... Thanks!

[@WesleyChuen]

Multicopter's jello comes from vibrations from the motors. It only happens when the motor that vibrate quite a bit and has the same resonance frequency of the video capture scan rate. That's why it only happens at certain motor speed. Usually cause by sudden wind gust, in this case.

[@valentinflon]

I think it's because of the temperature of the battery which create blurred air. (like a candle). What do you think of this theory ?

[@kimmonzen]

初めまして、いつも動画を拝見しています。立山、なんとか滑走可能なんですね（汗） 私もMavicを購入して空撮を始めたのですが、映像がたまにブルっとなりますよね？これは仕方ないことなのでしょうか…？先日高さ1.5mほどから墜落させ、そのせいなのかブルブルが激しくなってしまい、現在入院中です（DJIさん忙しいのに申し訳ない…）

[@winteroptix]

ありがとうございます。立山はギリギリ滑走可能でしたね。今日明日の降雪でだいぶ埋まりそうですがアルペンルートはもうすぐ終わりです(^_^;)　ジンバルはとてもひ弱そうな仕様ですし、たまにこけるのは仕方ないかなと半ば諦めています。うまく編集でつなぐしかないかなと..。衝撃にも弱そうですね。早く直るといいですね！

[@kimmonzen]

返信ありがとうございます！立山の雪の少なさを見ると、なんか昨シーズンの悪夢が（汗） ブルブルはやっぱりジンバルの弱さからくるものなんですね。ジンバル交換ぐらいで修理費安上がりだといいな… 今後も美しいBC空撮動画を期待しておりますm(__)m

[@sparkpaul]

Did you use any polarizer or nd filter with your mavic pro to shoot this video?

[@winteroptix]

No fileter. But,I used a lens hood.

[@sparkpaul]

winteroptix what does that look like? You have a link?

[@michelenotaro8167]

winteroptix active track RIGHT?

[@diverd5]

はじめまして。立山壮大ですね‼温度は何度くらいですか？温度対策は何かされましたか？

[@winteroptix]

気温はマイナス５度くらいですね。朝はもうちょっと低かったと思います。ただ、この時期の立山にしては暖かいほうかも。浄土山付近は結構風が強かったので結構冷えましたが(^_^;)　カイロでバッテリーは暖めています。あとはホバリングでさらに暖めてから飛ばすようにしてます。（雪山では）一度使用したらバッテリー残量がたくさん残ってても二度使いはしないようにしています（電圧低下が著しいので）

[@diverd5]

winteroptix お返事ありがとうございました。バックカントリーはモデルコースがあるんですか？許可などはいるのですか？私も是非いってみたいのでよろしくお願いします。まだ私のオーダーmavicは届きません(笑)

[@winteroptix]

いわゆるよく行かれるルートなどはあるかと思います。登山届を提出して行くことになりますが最初はガイドツアーなどで参加されるのをおすすめします。Mavic、なかなか生産が安定しませんね(^_^;)

[@jeanlucgayt]

superb

[@winteroptix]

Thank you!!

[@SunnySzetoSz2000]

how cold？ Is it stable like normal？

[@winteroptix]

The temperature was minus 5 degrees. Jello is a little shame.

[@egiman1982]

They say operation temperature is 0°C - 40°C so that is why you had jello. Rubber dampers are getting hard and does not work.

[@KyoheiToyama-no5ot]

雪山での飛行はバッテリーの持ちが悪かったりしますか？

[@winteroptix]

バッテリーの持ちは確実に悪くなると思います。バッファを多くみて飛ばしています。 特にバッテリー残はあっても電圧が足りなくなって飛行できなくなる場合もありますので、電圧低下には特に気をつけています。

[@KyoheiToyama-no5ot]

電圧低下ですね！私も雪山での飛行を試みているので大変参考になります。ありがとうございます！

[@qwetionqwe]

Nice vid. It is active track or follow me? Did you try the profile mod?

[@winteroptix]

Thanks. It is active track. I tried the profile mod, but I could not catch up with the skier.

[@qwetionqwe]

That makes sense. I test both mods in a playground. It turns out that profile mod is more suitable for a low speed object like walking people. I am considering bring mine to a skii resort too. What is the recommendation beside throttle down manually?

[@ikazuchisama]

ドローンの高さは追従しないせいか、ドンドン距離が離れていきますね

[@bryceshi2230]

太帅了太帅了

[@winteroptix]

Thanks! 謝謝

[@sashdown22]

amazing, beautiful. Is it active track or follow me? Follow me is not active track its different!

[@ShimarisuNX]

素晴らしい映像です。 来年1月ニセコバックカントリーにてMAVICにて撮影を計画しています。 先シーズン、乗鞍春スキーを撮影したのですが、下りの被写体（スキーヤー）の撮影は平地に比べかなり難しいと感じました。また自動追尾ですと高度は維持するため被写体が徐々に小さくなってしまい使い物になりませんでした。今後、撮影の方法など色々とご教示頂ければ幸いです。kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXi5YWOkl85soJo

[@winteroptix]

ありがとうございます。この撮影では自動追尾＋スロットル操作をしていて、高度は下げています。とはいえ高度の降下はスロットル全ダウンでも追いつかないので長い距離は厳しいかもしれませんね。

[@sarunassirvinskas8361]

Why to ruin nice shots with this kind of music :O
