Why are you flying with the card in the Goggles? I've never ever done that. It is just there for playing a movie or something you have recorded. It might mess it up in flight? Take it out!

Sorry you are having problems. I too wear progressive lens and understand exactly what you are saying. You might not like my solution but it really does work for me and it really isn't a big deal at all. I am able to wear my glasses and fly with the goggles however it just isn't as sharp and...

They are pretty neat. Doesn't take very long to get used to them but I do recommend that you get a few flights under your belt with the head tracking OFF. It is less confusing that way say for maybe the first 30 flights.

I have flown in light precip and fog quite a few times before without any problems however.

Maybe it did? You can see visible moisture on the dome in the video.

Very similar thing happened to me. Was flying on a low overcast day. It wasn't flying so well so I decided to hit the RTH button. It climbed into the overcast. (finding the RTH altitude, normal) It then flew un-commnded sideways about 700 feet away above a forest and decended into the...

Got this today. Warning: Moble device cpu fully loaded related performance will be effected Anyone know what is going on here?

I had a dear friend and co-captain who flew with me in business jets until he was 90! Carry on!

Don't EVER fly it indoors. Make sure it is in GPS mode before ever flying. I'm sure it is okay if the gimbal didn't take a hit.

Sorta thought I'd put my Mavic to work too but soon found out it was a lot of work and very little pay. Seemed like it was going to ruin a fun hobby, so now I just fly it around like a wild man at our place in the country. Seldom use the camera and it's true. No one wants to see your drone...

I don't fly without my Marco Polo fully charged/on and tie wrapped to the LH rear arm. Hope I never use it but certainly makes flying it a lot less stressful. I once lost it in a tree for 3 days. Found it only by accident but never want to do that again. It is certainly a worthwhile...

Funny story relating to this. A friend bought a new Mavic a few weeks ago. He is a complete newbee. Was flying the Mavic on his ranch with his 6 year old grandson at the controls quite a distance away when the Ipad went blank. Of course they thought they had lost it not realizing it would...

Wireless!

Hi Gene, I own the RE edition goggles and have used them quite a bit. Basically I like them. I have given rides to several people and their vision situations were all different. Some wore their glasses successfully others had better vision without their glasses while a couple of people...

Hi Brian, Yep, learn all you can. It is important, but to answer your question. The video function really doesn't need much setup to at least capture some video. In fact, all that is really required is a micro SD card installed in the Mavic. Assuming you have it flying. All you have to do...
