    Solar storms

    I have not seen any mention of this in any thread and was wondering if it is something to consider. An app I use, 'UAV Forecast' details the effect this can have on GPS lock where you can loose GPS for seconds or minutes and even when locked on can be inaccurate by 100s of feet. Could this...

    Pitch, yaw and rudder

    Well I have read the manual as I had long enough to wait for my Mavic, and I researched a lot before I nervously took it out for the first time. I've not had any bad experience in flying because I have learned from this forum and yes some questions may seem basic and embarrassing to you (if you...

    Pitch, yaw and rudder

    I'm not from an aviation background and this is my first venture and I didn't understand the different meaning to 'throttle' in rotary aircraft.

    Pitch, yaw and rudder

    Low battery and RTH

    Thanks msinger, so once I have enabled SRTH and my low and critical levels will my settings be overridden if the need to return or descend is greater, (earlier),than what I have set them at? Sent from my iPad using MavicPilots

    Low battery and RTH

    Not quite sure on this but when I set the low and critical levels in the settings, will this be when warnings are triggered and RTH initiated OR if I have set low at say 20% but need 25% to get home will it warn me then instead and start RTH? Sent from my iPad using MavicPilots

    Is there an advanced setting where you can eliminate high wind warnings?

    It's changed to a red warning now saying to initiate RTH instead for high wind...even more annoying Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots
