    It's official - M4P can't handle the cold

    Flew Mini4pro in Northern Norway this evening, car indicated outside temp of -12°C, using standard battery got over 21 minutes flight time. Checked props for icing, none. Used a lot of caution, checking batt temps, did n't fly more than 80m from home point.

    Mini 3 Pro "flyaway" Lost control!

    Flying low over water is fine if you have he option of pushing up if you see it losing height, if your flying blind ? Accept you may lose your drone / money.

    Mini 3 Pro "flyaway" Lost control!

    I don't know how long you have been droning ? I've always been nervous about losing my drone due to the cost of a replacement. When I started back in 2017 with a Mavic Pro, there were youtube video's of flying in cities, NY etc, as the years have passed more and more regulations have been...

    Considering downsizing to a Mini 3 Pro

    Yes, I sold the Mavic 2 Pro and bought the Mini 3 Pro, less restrictions flying in the UK with Mini 3 Pro. Like you I was n't using the Mavic 2 Pro very much as I was using a Mini 2, again due to less restrictions in the UK. Very happy with my Mini drones. The M2P is a beast, build quality is...

    Mini 3 pro video cache to phone 480p or 1080p.

    Any owner of a Mini 3 pro able to test with the RC-N1 controller connected to mobile phone able to confirm the video cache to phone is 480p, 720p or 1080p ? I know on the RC contoller its a miserable 480p, I am hoping using a mobile phone with the basic controller you can cache at 1080p, which...

    DJI RC and GPS - not good news

    The user manual clearly states the RC has gps. Multiple problems with the RC, and if you want just the aircraft only, not available till mid july 2022.

    How good is the Litchi follow feature on the Mini 2?

    Sorry, I meant if the drone is following you looking down whilst your in a car, bike, walking, from overhead, it continues to follow the remote, even if your not visible via the camera.

    How good is the Litchi follow feature on the Mini 2?

    The Litchi follow mode is excellent, follows through tree areas without the software falling over, the best feature of Litchi when flying the Mini 2.

    Charging DJI Mini 2 from a laptop? (Macbook Pro)

    It will take a lot longer than using the DJI charger. Higher the charger rating up to 29W maximum the faster it will charge. 7.5W charger will take at almost 2.5 times longer than the DJI charger.

    Got Rid Of Mavic Pro 2, Purchased Mini 2

    No waypoints on Mini 2, no active track, no APAS, no obstacle avoidance, but for the money a really good drone. Enjoy.
