    another enquiry on filters for the Mini 2

    I have a 4 - pack of Freewell ND filters for my Mini 2. No doubt that the filters themselves are excellent but they cause noticeable vibration in the video footage for much of the time - to the point that I have no confidence in using them. Although very lightweight I suspect that they do affect...

    How old are you? If you don't mind.

    72 Been flying drones since I got my Mavic Pro when it came out in 2016. Got myself a Mini 2 a couple of months back and love it! I am also surprised at the poll’s numbers - up to now - of 60 and over. Don’t get hung up too much over age, it is just a number. One of my other passions is riding...

    Atti mode while strong GPS signal

    Same issue here since updating to latest firmware (iOS). Rock solid always before that and now almost always reports atti mode after startup - this needs to be addressed!

    Mini 2 - Operating Temperature

    Took out my Mini 2 over the St. Lawrence river at -7 deg C. in a 15 km/h brisk breeze (took it to film and photograph a container ship - see image). No issues at all. FWIW I used to take out my Mavic Pro down to - 15 deg C. Love this little beast!

    Good things are coming

    D-cinelike is the one thing I just can’t wait for. I hope the firmware with it will be out soon!

    Greetings from Québec

    Hello from Repentigny, welcome to the forum! Why miss capturing our beautiful winters? I have my Mavic Pro since it came out and have flown many flights year round. In winter I limit myself down to -15 C, although the drone can definitely go lower. It does well in fairly windy conditions also (I...

    Crystal Sky monitors don't work with Mavic 2

    FWIW: I have the Mavic Pro (almost since launch 2 years ago) and got myself a Crystalsky last year (I used an iPad mini 4 before that). I love the Crystalsky and it was a fairly expensive add-on. That said, I am impressed with the Mavic Pro 2 and am definitely considering to get one, but NOT...

    Initial observations on M2P from a photographer

    I am OK with the image quality of the Mavic Pro, except for the omni-present brighter circle in the center of video clips. That alone would make me change. I have indeed not seen that in footage of the Mavis Pro 2. I take it that this is gone?

    Would you fly and film below -10 Degree celcius?

    I’m in Canada. In winter I routinely fly my Mavic down to -15 C. without any issues at all. No doubt that it can go lower, but I don’t care for exploring to find the breaking point.

    Picture of Quebec city

    I answered you in the discussion you started this weekend. But for the benefit of others, I love the area near “Quai 22” (check it out in Google maps). Away from the big crowds and the best spot to fly from for great Quebec city scenery.

    The SS United States

    Awesome video of this historic beauty! This marvel of engineering and design - in its time - would put today’s mass produced tin-can cruise ships to shame.

    Has anyone experienced App crashes with Crystalsky?

    About 25 flights without any problems with my 5.5.

    New CrystalSky Firmware released (November 9, 2017)

    Updated (5.5"). Fast and without a hitch. None of my Mavic custom settings were affected, YEAH! Checked status with both of my batteries: all good. Looks good, but I won't be able to fly until the weekend though...:(
