    filmora or final cut pro x

    I have never experienced any kind of shutter or glitch with iMovie. But everyone's experience may be different. I would give iMovie a try, it's free on your Mac, and much simpler for a beginner to use. If you don't like it, you can always move to Final Cut Pro.

    Autonomous flight using Litchi

    I have been using Litchi for three flights and it works very well so far. The only thing, how do you disengage the waypoints at the end and land Spark?

    Promo video for my brother in law’s church

    Stunning work! If you are going to edit further, what about adding some people shots (iPhone video and or stills). This suggestion will be more difficult because people do not stand still like the church building. GREAT CREATIVITY!
