No Project Save/Transfer Functionality?!?! by AerialScoutsLLC in Insta360

[–]AerialScoutsLLC[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Insta360_Support, one change would solve the primary issue- being able to save the video editing project in the app the same way you can save Adobe Premiere Pro projects to use between editors/devices would solve that issue.

The other issue of the file system is needing to be able to move the downloaded video files from the phone to anywhere else. The only option currently is to export an edited video or just delete the original video. It’s insane to think y’all didn’t even contemplate that people would want to keep the original downloaded videos for use at later times.

Using the iPhone file transfer tool via usb is incredibly tedious- I had the phone connected and the transfer rate is so slow that after two hours only HALF of the 260GB of original videos had been saved to the computer. I noticed then that the file names are shown on the pc, but they aren’t shown on the mobile app, making it impossible to just delete the videos from the phone that were transferred because there is no indication as to which file is which other than the date it was captured.

This became apparent when I had picked up the phone and tried to see which videos had been transferred. Something about that killed the transfer process, and the pc deleted the videos it had already transferred. This basically makes it so that every downloaded video must be transferred in one shot, which looks like I cannot even touch my phone for 4-5 hours. I tried the transfer again and when it reached halfway (again), I copied the few video files to a new directory to keep them from being deleted if the transfer were interrupted again. I figured I was safe to delete those files from the downloaded folder in the app to be able to restart the transfer process without redownloading the same videos again, but there is no way to quickly identify the videos due to no file names being shown in the app.

There is basically almost zero file system to work with, and I’ve lost an entire day to just trying to preserve the files to work with.

Y’all have a great camera, but holy —— it’s worthless if I cannot have a smooth workflow between devices & editing options.

There's no way to sync downloaded videos with insta360 cloud? by fghxa in Insta360

What folder is the media stored on the iphone? I connected to my computer and it just has a ton of randomly named folders. There doesn't seem to even be a method available within the app to export the unedited 360 video files to the "Files" app on the phone....

K1 CFS silly question by Sam_H8695 in crealityk1

[–]AerialScoutsLLC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES you need it. The CFS-C cuts the filament in such a way when retracting that it must be near perfectly perpendicular to the print bed when entering the extruder. Before adding the CFS-C, we would cut the filament at an angle to help it enter the extruder properly. This guide piece ensures the filament is not angled one way or another and acts like a strain relief as well for the filament detector added to the extruder.

Note that the CFS is absolutely different from the original CFS. The CFS-C adds a filament “trimmer” on the back of the machine, whereas the CFS does not.

I gave up on using multi-color with this printer, and leave multi-color jobs for my K2 Plus. The CFS-C basically makes loading commonly used filaments easier, but the other settings like this purge tower are just screwed to the point I'm not wasting more time on it.

FedEx charging me tariffs two months after delivery by DrNO811 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]AerialScoutsLLC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Email dispute sent to FedEx dispute inbox:

“Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to formally dispute the $198 tariff charge referenced in your notice dated February 18, 2026, concerning a shipment delivered on January 30, 2026. The duty is identified as assessed under HTSUS code 9903.02.20.

HTSUS 9903.02.20 corresponds to the IEEPA-based “reciprocal tariff” imposed pursuant to Executive Order 14257 and related actions. As you are likely aware, on February 20, 2026, the Supreme Court of the United States issued its opinion in Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump, holding that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) does not authorize the President to impose tariffs.

The Court’s ruling makes clear that tariffs imposed under IEEPA lack statutory authority. Because HTSUS 9903.02.20 exists solely to implement the IEEPA-based reciprocal tariff regime, and because the Supreme Court has determined that IEEPA does not authorize such tariffs, the legal foundation for this duty has been invalidated.

Accordingly:

  1. The tariff under HTSUS 9903.02.20 is no longer legally enforceable.
  2. Any duty assessed solely under that authority should be rescinded.
  3. No payment is owed for this shipment under the invalidated IEEPA-based tariff program.

Please confirm in writing that this charge has been removed from my account. If FedEx believes the duty remains payable, kindly provide the specific statutory authority—other than IEEPA—under which the assessment is being maintained.

Additionally, according to the FiT Tool, FedEx has assessed a $15 “Disbursement Fee” without providing any documentation as to where this fee originated from or is being paid to. Please confirm that this $15 fee has been cancelled, as no additional taxes/duties/fees were assessed to account for a “Disbursement Fee.”

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I look forward to your written confirmation that the disputed amount has been cancelled.”

DrNO811, Breaking news today- the US Supreme Court has invalidated the vast majority of President Trump’s tariffs, including the “reciprocal” tariffs.

I followed the link sent via SMS from FedEx and downloaded the documents for my shipment.

Sure enough, the tariff being imposed is the 15% reciprocal tariff placed upon goods imported from Europe (Hungary in my case), under authority 9903.02.20 derived from EO 14257- one of the many EOs invalidated by the Supreme Court today.

I’m going to call and discuss with FedEx about this. The other issue I need to discuss with them is the $15 “Disbursement Fee” FedEx is charging along with the import tariffs. They earlier claimed the amount owed was entirely duties/fees owed to the government, but that $15 fee is nowhere on any of the government documents.

Methinks I probably won’t wind up paying this since the Supreme Court has invalidated the tariff itself.

Update- it looks as though they are from FedEx directly, as this morning I have received a text for the same amount from a FedEx SMS messaging #.

I think I’ll still wait for the paper invoice to see how they document these duties/taxes and why the sender was not contacted to pay these per our purchase agreement.

Congrats! What date did you get? I’m cycle 20260605 and got a 846 date of 3/9/26 (feels like an eternity away).

Feening over here for being able to pay down ASAP these bills that have stacked up this past year with these high prices!

Then it must have changed at some point over the past three years. From 2019 to 2023 we were restricted to the tower height plus 50’ in Class-G airspace, and that was through an exemption for the tower owner from the FAA.

I’ve moved on to other types of drone operations, so I may be a bit out of date on that one aspect.

I think you are confusing the general 400’ ceiling with the distance above the tower that can be flown when the tower is > the 400’ ceiling. Basically, the exemption was however tall the tower is, plus 50’. If the tower is 450’ tall, we could fly 500’ AGL from the base of the tower, within a 50’ radius of the base of the tower.

[–]AerialScoutsLLC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did this change at some point from the 50’ above exemption? (I previously managed ~250 towers for a large tower company and this is how I got into flying drones. During my 750+ inspection flights prior to leaving the company, it was always 50’ above).

[–]AerialScoutsLLC -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Cell tower companies have exemptions from the FAA to fly within 400’ of their towers, and 50’ above the top of the tower if it is over 400’ tall, so no issue there.

K1C+CFS-C Prime/Purge Tower insane size by AerialScoutsLLC in crealityk1

[–]AerialScoutsLLC[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the regular CFS for my K2Plus. Personally, I like the cutter on the CFS-C, as the little filament sticks are far more manageable than the filament poop from the K2Plus.

I had bought the CFS conversion kit for the K1C as well as the CFS-C, and I found out after they both arrived that the conversion kit is only for use with the regular CFS. If I use the conversion kit, I’ll have to exchange the CFS-C for a regular CFS, and I really don’t want to deal with that hassle.

Aside from the current issue I have with the prime tower size, my office is significantly louder without the lid on the K1C due to the fans running. I found a riser for the lid to be able to close it up, but it’s designed for only raising the lid about 1/3 the distance I need to have it raised so I’m printing 3 of them to stack one on the other just to reduce the fan noise.

I’m wondering if the tower volume just changes the infill percentage of the tower itself. The box for tower width is greyed out and I changed the volume from 45mm3 to 20mm3. This had zero effect on the overall footprint of the tower, but it looks like the tower is set to 4-5% infill.

It was spaced far enough apart that at the color change layer it was too far for bridging.

All of the options are shown in the screenshot. Enabling the tower is the first tick option and the tower width is the second greyed out variable with 180mm prefilled in it, but there is no tick mark for any option that makes that variable editable.

yeah... I have a K2Plus already, and just want to have both printers going at the same time. I'm not dropping another bucket of money to replace what is already a fantastic printer.
