    Controller separation distance

    You would be lucky to get more than 50 feet reliably between controllers and loosing signal.

    X5 Repair

    Submit an online repair request to DJI and send it in. They will be by far the cheapest and they are usually back within a week in my experience. But I live in CA where they are based. Might be only 65$ to repair.

    It looks to me like it is stuck in an update firmware mode. Did your last firmware upgrade go as planned? Do you have an OSMO handle you can try it on and try upgrading the camera

    Oversaturated Red Colors on Zenmuse x5

    Sorry to dig up an old grave, but we are experiencing this on the X5 as well as the X5S. Anyone come up with any ideas to help mitigate this effect. I was thinking of taking down a couple points on the Saturation in camera, but even if we shoot dlog it is very noticeable.

    Firmware Upgrading

    If you put it away flying, I would just test fly it and would recommend not upgrading until after your job. It may just be me but I never change anything before a shoot. If I feel the urge to update I make sure I have a few days before a shoot to remediate an issue. Best of luck.

    The last one on the Sony SLog was very informative and easily understood. Curious to know if you have followed similar methods for figuring out optimal Log performance with the X5? Does anyone know what the IRE of the Zebras are for the X5?
