    Best Backpack out there??

    Yes this is the major benefit of the Lowepro BP250, I wouldn't feel comfortable if I had to check in my Lykus M1 bag into baggage when boarding a plane. The BP250 can also hold a 15" laptop where I am nearly certain my Lykus M1 bag cannot do that. The BP250 has approximately 20% more storage...

    Best Backpack out there??

    I love Lowepro products and have a few already but I personally believe the Lykus M1 bag had a smarter designer as it fits everything I could want and is more portable and is a perfect setup for me when using it as a shoulder bag. If I were going to use it as a back pack I probably would have...

    Best Backpack out there??

    Loving my Lykus M1 bag as it fits my complete Mavic 2 Pro kit, 2 spare batteries, ipad mini 4, mavmount 3, spare props and other bits and pieces and is much more compact than the Lowepro BP250 which was my second option.

    Hoodman HAV1 fit on ipad mini in Mavic 2 remote?

    Thanks for your response. I had a feeling I was going to have similar issues to what you mention. I just ordered a Mavmount 3 from the US and will ship it to Australia. So I can be ready to fly the day it arrives, can anyone tell me the shortest cable that can be used with my setup consisting...

    Hoodman HAV1 fit on ipad mini in Mavic 2 remote?

    Hi all I intend to use my ipad mini 4 in the remote control bracket of my Mavic 2 Pro without any external mount. Does anyone know if I can use a Hoodman HAV1 sunshade with the ipad mini 4 in the position that normally holds a smartphone?

    Mavic Pro Battery Mod

    Hi Trying to determine a couple of things and really confused at the moment. I am looking to purchase the quick release adaptor from uavmods as that seems to be of good quality and don't know any other better ones on the market. However I would like to know what is the absolute best battery...

    Mavic Insurance Australia

    Have you received your policy yet? Any update on the coverage provided by your insurance company? What you have been offered seems like something I will be taking up this week.

    Some of the largest DJI authorised distributors in Australia have been selling Mavic 2 Pro's for a couple dollars over $2,000 along with providing fantastic service and advice which has come in real handy for newbies such as myself, however when I check the rrp on their website the price states...

    Best screen/device to connect to controller?

    Just sourced a second hand ipad mini 4 64 gig cellular for $299.25 AUD to use with my MV2. I chose this screen as it came highly recommended from 3 local drone resellers in my area. I will test it out and for the price I got it for if I am not happy with it I am sure I can on-sell it and not...

    Real Estate Photography?

    For the purposes mentioned, I believe the Pro is the better choice as the quality of the pics will get you repeat business.. Should you need a close up shot for some reason just do the zoom post production and still be happy with the results.

    Best screen/device to connect to controller?

    Just answered my own question in regards to which current ipad is best: The ipad mini 4 is better for outdoor use on bright days as it has a laminated screen whereas the ipad 9.7" does not have a laminated screen and is not as good when operating outdoors on bright days. The ipad mini 4 can...

    Best screen/device to connect to controller?

    Some great replies, so thanks to all for your input. I will check out all the suggestions and whilst I would like Crystal Sky it is out of my budget. I was contemplating upgrading my iphone 6 for a Samsung S9 so will check out to see if that is compatible and brighter etc. Or do I just wait...
