Hey everyone, I’m looking for some good software to edit my drone videos. Any recommendations?

Check out DaVinci Resolve. It’s professional-grade and free.

Plus, there are tons of tutorial videos on YouTube if you need help getting started.

Just a heads up, the free version doesn’t support some of the codecs used by DJI drones. It won’t work with HEVC files, and it doesn’t do GPU acceleration for H.264, so even if I set the preview resolution to the lowest, it still struggles with playback.

Weird, I use it just fine with my setup, and a friend of mine does too. Maybe it’s an issue with your system?
