    0900 to 0800 to 0700 ?

    Downgrade is possible to ANY version but the official app (Assistant) does not support this. Maybe somebody will delete my post however you should all know that DJI using GPL licenced code in their drones they are violating the GPL licence with prohibiting free upgrades/downgrades which clearly...

    NanoSync Antenna for DJI Mavic Coming Soon

    Looks nice. Any test how much is the range improvement in urban area or country side?

    Could someone create a VM so we can all forever downgrade to 700

    Use 400 until somebody posts 700. There is nfz workaround.

    Could someone create a VM so we can all forever downgrade to 700

    It looks like DJI removed 700fw version this morning so it is not available. Only 900,800 and 550 versions are available so unfortunately nobody can create a VM with 700 anymore. Those who created it when it was available, unlikely to share it as it was mentioned before: it contains your...

    I'm sad that they are not available in your EU webshop :(

    NanoSync Antenna for DJI Mavic Coming Soon

    Yep, still have around 0.5 miles in urban area with LOS in EU :) Controller doesn't complain about interference, I'm on the roof. Countryside it's better around 1 mile. I definitely need more tx power. I read this thread but can somebody just confirm that a new NanoSync kit is coming with...

    Balcony take off?

    It makes sense but this is my experience. I always calibrate. Without calibration it happened to me several times that Mavic went to ATTI mode at 100ft or above and it was almost impossible to pilot it especially against the wind. It was very close to crash several times. I was thinking about to...

    Balcony take off?

    I did it many times if it was reasonably safe which means: switch on Mavic when it is placed on the floor (or table) and wait 1 minute for power up and IMU initialization. Calibrate compass at the middle of the balcony. Check if all IMU and compass sensor indicator is green. On the balcony you...

    Altitude maximum workaround

    I'm in the EU and perfectly aware of the airspaces and classes, so FAA or any other CAA will not be knocking on my front door for sure. I'm asking for the same reason as it was discussed before. If I want to get over high terrain, it would be nice to do it with this technique. Never exceeding...

    Altitude maximum workaround

    Yepp I'm really excited about this. I can not try it right now because of the airspace above me, but if the Mavic gets a new reference altitude during takeoff or with setting a new home point, then it might be a solution for many pilots out there around the mountains (obviously not for everybody).

    Altitude maximum workaround

    I'm curious what is the baro reference altitude for the MP? The takeoff position? What if you fly up to the mountain (~1600ft) and land somewhere then takeoff again? Does it mean a new ref altitude or it is measured upon power up?
