    DJI Mavic pilots - Australia

    Yeah mate, if they're anything like the City of Stirling rangers (and I believe they would be from what I've heard) they've got a surprising amount of authority, a bit like the transit guards, bit ridiculous really. But at the end of the day, all you gotta do is ring the local office to get the...

    How many of you do compass calibration before take off?

    Landing gear with shock absorbers

    Welcome, Mr Alarkon I assume? (Might want to remove your address haha) Why do you want landing gear with shock absorbers/springs? If you're worried about landing then leave landing protection on in the settings :)
