    DJI Mavic Air 1 vs. Mini 3

    I don’t have the mini 3 but I do have the mini 2 and the air 2. They are both far Superior in filming capabilities, battery life, range etc. My air 1 is nicer to look at but thats about it!

    Which better to buy Air 2 or Mini 2?

    I have the Mavic air 2 and my friend has the Mavic mini 2. We tested them yesterday up to 2 miles out in different situations and the Mavic mini battery stayed exactly the same as the Mavic air 2 in every flight. We were flying at the same height and the same distance at the same time. The...

    Dji assissitant 2

    You might try using a different computer. I had to try 3 different ones before I used my wife’s new HP and it worked. Same thing with a friend. It did not work on his Mac or his desk top. Took it home and hooked to my wife’s HP it worked.

    Convince me NOT to buy Mavic Air 2

    New to drones: what’s currently the best/ cheapest option for photographers?

    I have had all of the Mavic models exept the Zoom and I would say the best one to get would be a used mavic pro and put platinum props on it. You can get a used one for the price of a new Mavic mini!

    Mavic Air Lost Connection

    Decal Girl

    I used the carbon fiber on mine. Really a nice product and the darker color made it much more visible in the sky.

    Mavic Air 2 vs Mavic Pro 1 - opinions, sample footage..

    I have the pro 1 and my friend has the air 2. We have flown together to the same spots many times and compared them. The air 2 beats it in every way except battery life. It is always almost identical after I started using platinum props.
