How to use drone aerial photography?

During the trip, more and more people began to take travel photos by drone. Every country and region has no-fly regulations for drones. When traveling, you must be familiar with the no-fly regulations in various regions.

Only by pioneering and innovating and looking for a unique vision can we create interesting, fresh and attractive pictures and videos. UAV photography is a new angle for us to discover the world around us.

Looking down from the air, all the scenes and places become fresh and charming. Getting into drone photography is an exciting pleasure and a great challenge.

Improper operation or interference can easily lead to "explosion". It must be noted that it is not the drone, but your blood, blood, blood. . . . . . Sweat money, money, money

Every time you take off, it's actually a parting of life and death! You can have superb operation skills, but you can't control other factors. The last time I flew on the Sichuan-Tibet line 3 18, I recorded a video about ten seconds after take-off, and the signal was interrupted, which led to the "plane explosion". At that time, Bian Xiao's heart also fell into the raging river with the drone. . . . . .

In fact, at the beginning, novices were all blown out by bombers. In addition to man-made, there are many uncontrollable factors in flight technology. Such as weather, wireless interference, branches, etc. You can be in the desert, wasteland, seaside and other open places. Don't fall into the sea as long as you can land back.

In those busy places, it has already become a no-fly zone, so you need to get a flight permit. Don't fly in the dark, it's too risky!

Not touching these laws and regulations is the basic bottom line that must be observed during travel. In many cases, even if it is not a no-fly zone, it is necessary to ban flying through self-discipline according to your own judgment, such as crowded areas, high-altitude sports areas, bird sanctuaries, military control areas, tracks and transmission lines, borders and border disputed areas.

First, the preparation before flight

This is very important. First of all, you should learn the UAV flight teaching video, and the safety operation is the first. You must first understand all the functions and settings of the drone, especially the flight and control settings, and know how to correct your Yuntai route. You also need to prepare your equipment, make sure your battery is fully charged (preferably one or two spare batteries), the firmware is up to date, your tablet or mobile phone is fully charged, and you need to connect cables.

If the flight speed is too fast, the propeller is easy to wear, the steering speed is too fast or the tilt speed of the pan/tilt is too fast, which is easy to blur. When shooting at night, the navigation lights should be turned off to avoid light pollution.

Second, find the right location.

Find an empty place, where there are no trees, buildings and telephone poles for flight test practice. Be sure to stay away from crowds, all kinds of high-voltage lines, everything with iron will block your signal, and stay away from airports, airlines and other places.

Many places can shoot the theme of drone photography. Eliminating Google Maps/Earth may be a good way to find places where you can shoot in the air, such as road trip and scenic spots. The choice of flight time is also very important. Prime-time shooting will make your drone shooting look great, and long shadows will be particularly eye-catching. But before you leave, check the weather forecast and know the laws and restrictions in your area.

Third, find the picture composition of the eyes.

When shooting from high altitude with a wide-angle lens, everything will become smaller, and the picture will be straight and have no theme. At this time, simple geometric shapes and patterns are a good way to form a clear image, such as winding roads, coastlines that neatly divide the coastline from the sea, people walking on the open Yuan Ye, and vehicles driving on the road.

Fourth, choose the right direction.

Drones fly in three-dimensional space, and novices are often in a hurry; The joystick stroke of the remote control is very short and light, and novices are prone to overexert. First, adjust the head orientation and start recording, and then push in one direction to shoot natural aerial video. You can fly forward on the first flight, which is the simplest and has the lowest collision risk. After proficiency, you can try to fly sideways and push only one side.

Fifth, continuous shooting.

For novice flight test, first raise the lens, turn on the video when shooting vertically down, and then use the wheel on the remote control to raise the angle. You can also start recording from the time of take-off, climb forward obliquely after take-off, and fly straight ahead at an appropriate height, so that you don't need editing at all, and the scenery comes into view step by step. Six, bring an assistant

When you operate the drone to shoot, it can speed up your installation and disassembly time and help monitor the drone. If you are in rugged terrain, the assistant can catch up with your drone and land, learn from the excellent drone photographer, and follow him to observe and learn.
