We have an interesting two-part question today. Our first part of the show is about making drone battery voltage appear on the main screen. And the second part is about getting a clean feed when recording on the DJI Crystalsky.

Our caller, Zach flies a Mavic Air and is bugged by the fact that he cannot see battery voltage on the main screen. Can Zach hack the Mavic Air to address this issue? Additionally, the feed on his DJI Crystal Sky is pretty choppy. Is it normal for drone pilots to get a choppy feed when recording in 2.7K 30 fps?

Interesting questions, Zach. If you are a professional drone pilot or training to be one, listening to this show will help you understand the importance of safe drone flight. Also, if, like Zach, you are unable to get a clean transmission, Paul has some great tips to help you out. Tune in now. Fly Safe!
