    Battery overcurrent discharge

    Me too. Usually in sport mode, full forward and full ascent throttle at same time. Might be motors pulling too much from battery but thought DJI would have tested this!

    Mavic Deliveries - UK

    Ordered Nov 5th from Heliguy, last update May delivery. Cancelled. Ordered 9th Feb from DJI, delivery tomorrow.!!! Not Heliguys fault, DJI proper messed up their dealers over this but I'm impressed with their quick delivery. Shame I'm working late tomorrow!! Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    Mavic Deliveries - UK

    My update from Heliguy today was April (that probably means May). They've been proper stitched up by DJI. Going to stand the loss of £100 and go direct to DJI. If I wait until May and they release V2 in Sept I'd be pissed off. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    Can't understand why digital rev, Maplins etc can all get hundreds of units and fulfil orders in days but Heliguy has had less than a dozen in 4 months!! Ordered start Nov 2016 and now wondering if it's worth it (or keep my money until Sept and hope mavic 2 comes out!!) Sent from my iPhone...

    BTW HeliGuy are getting 2 in stock in the spring - could be 3.... It's TRUE!! Heliguy confirms they will get two Mavics by April and a spare set of propellers by June/July. Apparently, the bloke who forgot to press send on their original Mavic order back in September is now in charge of...

    I'm getting annoyed now. Come on Heliguy you should be on the phone kicking off with DJI every 15 mins until your orders turn up. This is from your website.... Getting the Mavic Pro through Heliguy means that the whole process is managed from beginning to end. We are the oldest and most...

    Mavic Deliveries - UK

    I ordered on the 7th Nov and was told number 351 in the queue. Should get it by Christmas then! Might have to take the £100 loss and go to Maplins. Annoying that people ordering at the end of Dec have got theirs already. So. For the next drone release (mavic 2?) anyone pre-ordering from Heliguy...

    Mavic Deliveries - UK

    I ordered start of Nov from Heliguy. Think I was 350 in the queue. I don't think they've had any as people ordering theirs from other suppliers in late Dec are getting them now. I think Heliguy forgot to order any from DJI! Only thing keeping me from moving is that I paid a deposit and will get...

    Pre-order and Shipping Times - Who Will Get the Mavic First?

    Ordered 5th Nov but from Heliguy. No sign of any mavic coming from them anytime soon. Wish I'd gone with DJI directly now. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    Another near miss in London...

    11,000 feet !!! That's approx 61 minutes to descend from that altitude! Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    As Heliguy seems to be getting only a few each week I've ordered through Jessops too (£100 more expensive now since the price increase), lets see who gets there first! Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    I'm number 351. So I'll have a really good retirement present to play with in Jan 2028. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    Did they say how many they had already shipped? Just wondering how far along (towards my order number) they have got. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    I'm number 351 from Heli Guy. Was hoping for mid December. There's no chance of that now! At least it was at the original price which is why I can't go elsewhere. Sent from my iPhone using MavicPilots

    Drone Over Alaska

    Do you keep the mavic cold to avoid fog on the lens? I have a small handwamer for batteries (when mine eventually arrives!!) but I wouldn't have the same temp difference from a car to outside that you have there. Any issues with the low temp and mavic? (Providing batteries are warm). Sent...
