  1. I have been wanting to update this post for ever; but had been having a writer's block. Anyways I am just posting this for now and I will correct / update it later. I have been experimenting with various visualizations and editing methods. I have done something different in every video I have produced. I think I need to settle down with one way of doing it, but still, I am leaning. The main software I use: Insta 360 Studio, Final Cut Pro X (FCPX), Telemetry Overlay and sometimes CapCut for captions. FCPX and Telemetry Overlay are paid software. One can substitute FCPX with Da Vinci Resolve which is free. There’s ton of tutorials in YouTube for all the main editing software (including Adobe Premier) The three most common workflows I use are: 1. Do the framing in Insta 360 Studio App, and just add titles, intro/outro etc. in Final Cut Pro. Sometimes I have directly uploaded the video output from Insta360 Studio app without any processing in FCPX. 2. Export 4 to 8 different views from Insta 360 studio and then mix them in FCPX using Angles. This allow me to edit to the tunes of the music I use plus gives the impression of having 4-8 cameras being used to record the action. 3. Export 360 video and then Do the framing in FCPX. Da Vinci Resolve is a better software to reframe in the editing software than FCPX because, when one pan/tilts the angle FCPX only allows linear movement, but Da Vinci Resolve lets you control the speed (like in Insta 360 Studio). In the first two cases one can overlay telemetry either in Insta360 Studio or produce overlay in external app and layer it in FCPX. I use Telemetry Overlay app for mac. When I reframe 360 videos in FCPX I use only telemetry overplay export. How do I get telemetry data: Since, I use the GPS remote, the footage has the telemetry data baked into it and I export the *.gpx file while exporting framed or 360 video from Insta360 Studio app. Why I use music: to hide the wind noise. When I mount the camera on the side of the car it produces a lot of wind noise, and crackling sounds. Therefore, to minimize the wind noise I use music. I have artlist.io subscription for music. In the beginning, I used to use free music provided by YouTube, which is quite good IMHO. PS: I plan to update and revise certain sections to enhance clarity, streamline information for brevity, and improve language and grammar.

  2. Check or replace the vacuum pipe that goes just behind the driver seat - underneath the car and connects the black rubber pipe to the rear locker. If this is fine, check for an air compressor behind the driver seat - inside the car side panel. If you hear the compressor noise when engaging the rear diff lock, that means the compressor is fine. @Luke K P can you confirm if you hear the compressor noise in gen 4? Mine (Gen 2.5) was lazy for a long time, check and the mechanic fixed the wiring correctly and changed the compressor, then it engaged instantly.

  3. The car in question i was testing for buying (i think i remember hearing the compressor noise when pushing the button but not 100%) - anyway if i agree with the seller about the price im gonna get it tested to a private garage to eliminate surprises - i was curious if its a common issue or something that can become very expensive to fix. Ty for the replies!

  4. @DP1011 It was truly an enjoyable experience, there were few challenges with the terrain. Your guidance through each stage of the task ensured a smooth movement for the convoy. The timing you chose allowed us to fully relish the moment, although we have the rest of the day free for family activities, which is better. @Sunil Mathew Thanks for keeping an eye on the convoy and good video posted on Flag hunt, it was not that easy for myself and @DP1011 to find the flag, as it was partial covered by sand. Thanks for rest of the convoy, every time we all learn different driving skills. @Rohit Deginal @JohanE @JERINE_B @Faraz94 @Andrew John Melvill @Premjit Vappala @Mohammad Sayawoush Azad @Rk ram @JERINE_B i will whatsup you the video.

  5. Workflow Examples: In this video I had framed the video in Insta360 and added music in FCPX. (Jerome led FB Drive at Nahel) One of my very first videos. I had exported different angles and then layered them to make this video. This one was a lot of work but fun as I was still learning FCPX (Varun led FB+ Faqa'a to little Sweihan) But as I learnt more, I was able to use Angles feature in this video to cut it according to the music. For this video I had exported 8 different angles exported and then I cut them in FCPX. FCPX becomes slow for more than 4 angles. There were no Telemetry in this one. (Varun led FB+ at Badayer). For this video, I exported 4 angles with telemetry from Insta360 Studio and then cut them to the music. There is no panning and titling in this one due to fixed angles. (Looper Led IM Drive at Badayer) For this video I reframed the 360 videos in FCPX. Overlaid external telemetry. With Reframing in FXPC, I can change angles as well as tilt and pan with the music which is not possible otherwise. Added External Telemetry overlay (Looper led FB Drive at Qudra). Telemetry Examples: In this video I laid the telemetry directly in the Insta360 App, where I also did the reframing. Added music in FCPX. (Seidem's FB+ lead at Tawi Nazwa) I applied telemetry from external App (Telemetry Overlay) I was the first drive after I got myself a GPS Remote. I have done few iterations of the Telemetry overlay graphics over time. (Looper's FB+ lead at Faya, AD) PS: I plan to update and revise certain sections to enhance clarity, streamline information for brevity, and improve language and grammar.

  7. EDIT: yes I can get hear the compressor start and run for about 10 seconds behind drivers seat. @Gaurav Can't say I've ever noticed/heard a compressor noise behind drivers seat when engaging the locker. Will check this morning on way to work and update. 👍

  8. @Luke K P, @Gaurav & @Ishak thanks for your inputs, it is much appreciated. Also thanks to you, I could start to write on the workflow, which I wanted to write for some time now but wasn’t getting around doing.

  11. Must be in 4HLC or 4LLC Move to N or P Press diff lock switch. Wait for flashing light to become solid. Of light does not become solid. Engage D, press accelerator slowly three times, allowing car to return to idle. Engage R, press accelerator slowly three times, allowing car to return to idle. If stuck in soft ground. Attempt to repeatedly move backward and forward.

  15. They say practice makes perfect, and as we keep driving more or less same tracks, we keep doing it better and better. The morning was an indication of coming of early summer this year. It was about 22 degrees. @JeromeFJ had his convoy near the track and I moved a bit ahead. @JeromeFJ came to greet me and we exchanged best wishes. It was his drive that I had ever come here for the first time. I even have a video of that drive on my YouTube channel. By 7:07 in the morning we started to move. Short convoy so there we kind of ordered the cars based on their length and every one of them had a role to play. Within 15 min we were at Ghafteen Bowl. This was the most satisfactory entry and exit out of the bowl. Last two times we had come from the west into the bowl this time we came down the north / north-east side. and instead of exiting from the west as we did last two times, we exited to south climbing steep dunes directly. After traversing through the tall dunes overlooking the vast sabkha we went north once again to visit what was marked as one of the first two play areas in my map. We continued this zig-zag pattern of track till we reached the Old Lady Dune. There were some technical patches, some tall dunes and some mid-sized dunes. We cross them all and we did cross them fast. I was keeping up with the track as much as possible (the black line) but towards the end when I saw Old Lady dune, i moved there directly instead of going a bit south to catch up with the desert track that crosses from Nagra Hill to Old Lady Dune (i did that last time - see the pink track). We had fresh clean desert all to ourselves to make our own tracks. and the drive was almost without any stoppages, and it was possible only because we had a superb team. @Cha, @Anoop Nair and @Stumpy are all excellent drivers and above par, so they made it look easy, a bit too easy if you ask me. Thank you all once again for your participation, till we meet again very soon.
