I have not use final cut in a long time but recently bought a Phantom 3 and created so far couple videos. The issue is that when I export the shared video to my local Apple computer... it looks like the video is fine. But when I put it in YouTube, there is a big rectangular black lines across the video and the video get resized it and appear small than what it suppose to be... here is a sample from YouTube:

Hm.  Check the settings on your drone and see if the format is right. 

 

Also check the settings on YouTube uploader and see if there is a way to prevent resizing.

 

I hope there is a "fill" option in Final Cut Pro.  

 

I wish I could help since I don't have a video to edit with to find a solution.

Thank you for the suggestion!!! Will check the settings again.

Found something interesting... the following video explain that if you want complete widescreen in youtube, you need to make sure that the event created in final cut is set at 1080p or you will end up with black bars....

 

 

May I offer a little feedback?

 

Plan where you're going roughly before you fly.  Commit to your movements but know what's next.  That will stop you tilting and jerking to correct or second guess yourself - hence smoother and less props in flight.

 

Nice work though dude :)

Yes but remember he's a newbie. He hasn't used a drone before.  He's learning more on it. So he will improve better as he goes along.

That's why I offered feedback.  Not criticism.

    • I switched to AdGuard for this very reason. All my uBlock filters and user scripts ported over with no issues.
    • This is a hot take, but I only use "New" Outlook for 1 reason, the "My Day" side bar that shows your tasks and Calendar on "New" Outlook allows you to view shared calendars and not just your personal calendar. On "Classic" Outlook it only allows your personal Calendar. For my job, we have a group shared Calendar that shows appointments and scheduled tasks for the team and we don't really use our personal calendars.  
    • Opera for Android gets redesigned home page with FIFA World Cup tracker by Taras Buria FIFA World Cup 2026 is kicking off in the United States later this week, and Opera, a popular cross-platform browser, is making it easier to track matches on mobile. Today, Opera announced a redesigned home page for its Android browser. The new home page is now "more immersive" with easier access to common browser features. Users can now customize Speed Dial icons (round, square, or squircle), enjoy a new weather widget with real-time conditions, and open AI Mode or a private session with a single tap. Additionally, the browser now has a built-in football tracker, allowing you to follow your favorite team without using dedicated apps. The tracker displays live scores, notifications, and statistics in a dedicated football hub. You can also check out line-ups, match events, and more. Opera surveyed its users, and 38% of responders said they plan to follow the FIFA World Cup 2026 in a browser. The tournament starts on June 11 and ends on July 19, 2026. "By providing football fans with instant access to live scores alongside a more considered design, we’re ensuring they are never more than a tap away from the action, even when they can't watch live," said Tim Lesnik, Product Manager at Opera Mobile. For Opera users in the United States, Opera runs a contest, offering them a chance to win tickets to a match in Miami in July, Android smartphones, PlayStation 5 consoles, smart TVs, and Amazon Vouchers. Users can participate by posting on social media with the #OperaFandom hashtag from June 12 or by signing up on the official Opera website. Opera will announce winners on July 3. You can download Opera for Android from the Google Play Store using this link.
    • That definitely doesn’t match my experience with using Outlook. I use the new Outlook with a local account, connected to a email account, that absolutely isn’t connected to a Microsoft account without an issue.   I used Thunderbird/Firebird once, lost some very precious emails and memories, because of the way it stored emails. Swore I would never use it again, it technically wasn’t the fault of Thunderbird, but an extension but the underlying reason it failed was due to the message format.
