    Used DroneDeploy to map a quarry

    Hi TLT, what computer hardware (processor RAM video card etc) do you think is a minimum for processing on your own machine, as opposed to uploading with Drone Deploy?

    Mavic bit me like a bat out of hell...guess it was my fault

Press the icon for: Visual Navigation setting (top of screen) > Advanced > disable -Landing Sensor. (Just remember...

    Mavic Pro Pilot from Ocala FL

    Multiple Batteries Charging

    Answer to point 2: Pages 7 & 8 of the Mavic Battery Charging Hub explain instructions for Updating the Firmware. I assume that this will be done through DJI Assist and DJI will notify when updates are available for the hub.

    Multiple Batteries Charging

    No. My hub is still charging the least depleted battery first and moves on to the next. I am no expert but I thought that the charger only had capacity for effectively changing one battery in a given time or 2 batteries in twice the time (depending on the amount of charge still in the...
