    Who wants to buy my goggles, they suck.

    Is this all for real? If so I applaud some of you for being saints in the drone world. The guy obviously doesn't like his goggles, let him be.

    Returning goggles without even opening box

    I really want to love the goggles but I love my Mavic for portability, these goggles are the opposite of compact or portable.

    They're Here!!! Taking Questions...

    There is an internal fan for electronics. There is nothing to cool or circulate the air inside for your face/eyes.

    They're Here!!! Taking Questions...

    I just heard the goggles don't have any type of ventilaiton or fan. Is this true? If so there is no way I can use them here in hot and humid Florida, they'll be fogged up in seconds as I've read reported from others. Now I have to wait until Goggles V2 come out, at least that shouldn't be more...

    Is this normal, very HOT motors on 90 degrees weather?

    It was mid 80's and I was using my hand to monitor the temp. I've never had an issue, it rarely even got warm flying the same place and style. Definitely getting warmer here in Florida but not in the upper 90's by any means.

    What level pilot are you?

    If you use Litchi then you are automatically at least a level 99 pilot!

    Is this normal, very HOT motors on 90 degrees weather?

    I noticed my batteries much hotter than ever after flying last night. I'm hoping it is a coincidence it was right after updating the software.

    Will DJI end the world as we know it with their latest Firmware?

    DJI is covering their rear ends. I don't have a problem with what I have heard so far. And I'm a big advocate for personal rights and freedom.

    Mavic pro battery & antenna mod!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Wait, we have a winner. This has to be the single biggest pri_k comment I've ever seen on this forum. What a sad existence to get this worked up over another person's toy drone hobby. Wow. I love running into these types at parties...

    Became more complicated than fun... Sold it!

    I've never flown my Mavic without a tablet or goggles. Wow, there are many times I'd like to just go for a quick, simple LOS flight and this is the answer. Ok, now I'm going to get into my shiny new Corvette and go fly. Wait, I don't have a shiny new Corvette...

    Official Mavic Pro Range Leaderboard!

    Seven,7, seven miles! Wow, that is nuts, and awesome. Makes my little 3-4 mile stock runs look like childsplay.

    .700 is here "The-f-word" There is new firmware once again!

    I updated yesterday over wifi with no issues at all, as always. Flew two batteries with no issues. It may be just me but my horizon tilt seems better. It as off 6 degrees now it's down to about one.

    The secret to real 28 minute flights discovered

    I flew three batteries this afternoon and got just under 1 1/2 hours of flight time in. It seemed like forever. The secret... Fixed Wing Mode. Yes, FWM. Flying in calm conditions I took the Mavic up to a hundred feet or so and locked in FWM at about 8mph. I'm still surprised how much fun this...

    Do you use the digital zoom?

    I finally tried the zoom today, after a million flights. It worked surprisingly well. I'll be playing with it a little more.

    New firmware: V01.03.0600

    I got tired of getting the warning to upgrade with every flight so I bit the bullet today and upgraded. Upgrading went perfectly and I just completed two perfect flights. No issues at all. Hovering is rock solid and fixed wing mode is more fun than I thought it should be.
