Like Auspete above, I stopped using the short cable supplied as it was causing lots of issues. Since going to the same 30cm USB cable I used with my Phantom 3 I've had no issues. It seems the supplied cables have some issues, not for everyone though, but certainly has been for me. I'm using...

Unless you've got 8 inch long fingers you should never get your fingers close to the blades catching it this way. When I have opted for the grab catch (which doesn't need to be done really), you just aim for the body just behind the gimble where the distance to blades is greatest. I...

The way I hand launch when I have to is this... I hold my right arm out, palm up and holding the mavic by the underside (pointing the camera away from me). During power up I will put the controller with my phone on my arm up near the elbow where it's flat and wide, and initiate the CSC to...

The way I hand catch is as others have said, about head height then initiate an autoland with my hand under it, a slide bar will come up saying the ground below isn't great, simply slide it over and let it land in your hand and the motors power down on their own. Nothing gets disabled and...

and my Phantom 3 Pro as well

My mavic speed ... EDIT: No idea what's up with the top altitude here, the logs clearly show higher points but that field is not correct for the Mavic .. it's accurate on the Phantom though

Anyone that's not comfortable with the RTH really needs to just do it .. Use the button to force it home, then do the same thing again but switch off the remote to simulate the disconnect. I've done it with my quads in huge open fields so I will know they'll come back and I feel comfortable...

I'm currently running the latest firmware from Dec 26, and after some tweaks suggested by others, mainly about channel selection and also changing from 20Mhz to 10Mhz bandwidth I can say I had no serious issues today at all over the course of flying 2 full batteries with the same Phantom 4 pilot...

Ouch that's not good at all.. I assume in the settings you've got RTH on disconnect? This getting me quite concerned to say the least. I'm off to France this week and taking the mavic with me and expect I'll be flying over water a lot on the coast (to get away from populated areas) but I have...

I'll have to look at the logs on the aircraft ... when you say choose channels manually each person must select? Or can I leave my friend on auto and just myself pick another? I'm happy to change channels but not sure about him. I do have my Phantom 3 Pro still, I might have to just take both...

I've seen a few threads on this but different. I've now experience this problem twice and both times while flying near by a friend with this Phantom 4. My Mavic will warn of Strong Interference to Remote Controller this is very quickly followed by a complete disconnection from the aircraft...
