    Love it so far, it is my first drone so I do not have a comparison but like most things about it.

    One thing I have been a bit wary of is the range of the wifi. It seems to indicate a low or weak signal quite quickly. This happened last week and again today when I was only 150M or so away. Makes me nervous from exploring further afield, particularly today as it was over water for a period.


    Any footage to share? :) It will return to home if it loses connection anyway.

    It's a good price, Amazon Spain is the same, yet it is £550 on Amazon UK. I'm going to buy it, but will wait for it to reduce on the UK site , as I have a shed load on their giftcards. If I wait until after Brexit, I could be paying a whole lot more!

    How do people store/share their videos? Approx 13mins off footage fills the 16gb memory card. Ideally I would like to be able to film and them send the videos via whatsapp. Or do people just upload in the highest resolution to YouTube and then share the link?

    Same way as video on a phone, just without the net connectivity. Hook up the cable from drone to PC or laptop, copy the files, then wipe from the drone. Rinse and repeat.

    It was about £440/420 back in December when this thread was opened, it's risen in the past month think what started the price rise was parrots announcement they are pulling out of the consumer drone market.

    Yeah, if anything I thought that would have the opposite effect, as the other Amazon sites have shown. I'll just be on the refresh button each day, hoping it will go down again. There is a UK seller that has it for £450, but does not have the best rep.

    delly, I think JJayoo is talking about sharing them with someone else rather than just sharing them from your drone to your own phone or pc.

    I am using free software called Shot Cut to do some editing and mixing and then exporting as a .webm file as it significantly reduces the file size. It does of course reduce the quality of the video also.

    If someone has any tips or tricks in this respect, I would like to hear them.

    I took my anafi out on its maiden voyage while on holidays. I was getting an SD card error. Formatted the card, now it's not seeing it at all.

    Any ideas?

    Have you formatted it in the correct format?

    There is a known issue with SD cards 64gb and over, could be this or something completely different. Just make sure you format it on the Anafi and not on your PC etc.

    Since this thread has come back up, link below to my Anafi videos I've put up since I got it. Don't forget to subscribe, as the big YouTube peeps say!
