    Mavic 2 Pro and Goggle Racing Edition Issue

    Lets hear from everyone who hasn't has promblems with there Mavic

    Because seriously, I don't say howdy... Current Inspire 1 pilot (I recall the pre-order of that beast going a lot more smoothly than this one), and future Mavic pilot. Switching it up because my run-and-gun style of shooting/filming needs the portability of the Mavic! Hoping to have it in...
