    Controller buzzes

    Mine did this, had to return the controller to DJI Netherlands. Checked and replaced with a new controller, and back to me in 10 days total. Bearing faulty on fan.

    BREAKING Flights at Gatwick Airport halted amid reports of drone flying in area

    I agree, something not right about whats this. 1 How can they fly so long, Drones the public can buy coould never reach the flight time of those involved. 2 The weather, and heavy rain, again no drone i know of ( other than military) could fly in those conditions. 3 Not even a complete idiot...

    Auto discharge don't work....

    Because if you left them fully charged and not used, say for bad weather, it can damage Lipoly batteries left in a charged state for more than a few days. Best to leave them with say 30% charge left in them, and charge fully either on the day or night before.

    Do you unfold your props everytime before starting motors?

    I unfold them, just a habit from my Heli's flying days, you don't forget to unfold them lol

    Get out and fly!

    Aaarrrrggghh Don't remind me about flying! Just had a hip replacement last week and no flying for weeks. ( we're lucky if we get a couple of good weeks weather in Scotland for summer)

    Latch your battery tightly.

    Good advice, i had been checking my batts as part of the preflight after seeing the first reports of total power loss in flight.

    My Mavic is Perfect!

    First drone ( Flown R/C Heli's and fixed wing for years) and my Mavic has been spot on since buying in late March. ( Aircraft build date 17/03/17) . Fantastic technical ability of this aircraft amazes me still.

    There and Back Again - an AMAZING tale of a lost Mavic, must read!!

    Good to have a happy ending, it certainly proved worthwhile going back for your Magic

    Hot power pack

    Mine also gets pretty hot, again not so hot as being unable to hold it, but considerably hotter than other Lipo chargers I have used in R/C
