    Video over exposed

    When you’re in video mode and you go into the settings (the three lines with alternating circles below the red start/stop button) and you select the shutter icon (first of three icons at the top), does that control the video too or is that just for still shots (even though I’m in video mode)...

    Having seconds thoughts clicking buy it now

    If your hesitation is due to finances then you shouldn't be influenced by anyone or anything. However, if it's not and you're just not sure if Mavic is the right one let me be the one to influence you. I'm a newbie to drones. I'm a long time photography hobbyist. And I'm a huge fan of the Mavic...

    How is everyone determining if the area you are in is okay to fly the drone? Some of the apps seem confusing and hard to read.

    LED Spotlight for Mavic

    Before I fly at night I want to make sure I have the Mavic properly lit. Was going to get two Cree LED white strobes from Firehouse technology. But I'm also looking for a good spotlight. Any suggestions for a spotlight on the Mavic? Thanks.

    Can you connect controller to TV in place of phone/tablet?

    Can you connect the controller to a flatscreen TV in place of your phone/ipad? Can this be done via a USB to HDMI cable? If not, how?

    Issue with downloading photos/video

    Went to download my first videos and pictures and got the below error messages. It allowed me to download some, but had errors for others. The card I'm using is a SanDisk Extreme Plus A1 4KUHD. Is this a good card for the Mavic or could it be the card? Also, the video was out of focus the...

    Gimbal pitch question?

    To pan the camera slower and under more control I set my gimbal pitch speed to 10 and smoothness to 15, but when I move the gimbal on the controller it still moves up/down and side/side very fast. Too fast to get a proper shot without having to adjust the height of the Mavic. Any reason why...
