    Mavic Mini looses altitude and I don't know why.

    It's a propeller issue people - because they are so incredibly thin, the case design and/or prop holders being sold distorts them just enough to affect the pitch, hence ability to maintain altitude and even 'fall out of the sky' as MANY have reported. The firmware version seems to make no...

    Flight Time Record?

    Most I ever got on my very first hover with new battery was 24.8 minutes running it down till it would not stay in the air any longer (holding the throttle stick up).

    I want to solder wires directly to mavic minii

    Yes, I realized that after the fact - which is why I've implemented a 'payload ejector' if I see any authorities coming my way.

    I want to solder wires directly to mavic minii

    Here's what I did, hope it helps give you some ideas! btw, I was able to get 14 hours flight time but the motors were a bit warm to the touch after landing, so be careful.

    Mavic Mini signal strength boosters?

    Wow!! Way too bulky - Defeats the purpose of having an extremely portable drone.

    DJI Mavic Mini Snap Adapter Example Uses?

    Great question! My suggestion is to throw it in the trash before someone sees you flying with it.

    Mavic Mini Dji Accessories Now in stock

    That “Snap Adapter” is officially the STUPIDEST, silliest and most useless accessory for any drone in the history of drones. I honestly thought it was a spoof when I saw it, but appears to be a legitimate accessory!! ???

    Mavic Mini signal strength boosters?

    The best and simplest way to get a stronger signal is to make sure it’s not getting ‘diluted’ by turning off your smartphone’s Wifi and cellular - AFTER you cache the maps where you will be flying as maps require either (not both) of those.

    Mavic Mini batteries - this could get expensive!!

    These are considered smart batteries so I would assume they would automatically go into storage mode after a given amount of time. Can anyone confirm this?

    Mavic Mini batteries - this could get expensive!!

    Lithium Ions in the MM are not nearly as robust as lithium polymer’s But they were necessary to keep the weight down.

    Mavic Mini batteries - this could get expensive!!

    DJI has always offered fly more combos - has nothing to do with cheap batteries.
