I'm curious, starting with flight safety and legal restrictions, what parameters ensure high-quality footage with a drone? For example, where can I begin learning about technical details like wind speed, sensor size, flight altitude, etc.? Let's explore this together since it's a new topic, and all our ideas matter.
What should be considered for aerial photo and video shooting?

Wind speeds between 5-10 m/s, will the drone stay stable, bro? Or is the sensor size also a big factor here? Could you explain?
I was also getting stuck exactly where you asked about as someone who got into drone photography/video. First off, my advice on **flight safety and legal restrictions** is to thoroughly check local civil aviation rules. For example, in the regions I work, there’s a 120m height limit, and in some places, flying a drone is outright banned. Wind speed is also crucial—I’ve lost stability a few times when it exceeded 30km/h.
As for sensor size and quality, getting a drone with a full-frame or at least a 1" sensor makes your job a lot easier. With advanced autonomous flight modes like APAS 4.0, you can capture smoother shots. I’d also recommend a climate-controlled case since battery performance drops significantly in cold weather. Which models are you looking into? My personal favorite is still the Mavic 3 series, though the price is pretty steep.
