    Best place to sell a drone? I know MPilots has a classified... what are the best options?

    I just sold my Mini 1 on Mercari. Pretty straight forward process that went very smooth. Got the price I was looking for. Not sure how the fees compare to selling on eBay though.

    Speed forward only 5mph & reverse 22mph, what?

    I had a similar problem with low speed forward but full speed in reverse. I toggled the switch on the controller from Normal to Sport and back to Normal and the issue seemed to correct itself. I was able to get full speed in forward after that.

    Yellow Master Air Screws for MA2

    I bought a pair of the orange blades for my air 2. Had the same issue with flash oh the blades. After watching 51 Drones video about the vibration, I put the blades on to try.

    Has anybody seen this red Icon before?

    I’ve gotten that a few times with both my Mini and my MA2. What I’ve found is that I have the RC and phone too close to my body (I usually have my controller near my belt line) and I think the belt buckle may be causing interference with the phone compass. Usually if I move the controller away...

    Mavic Air 2 - Is it really THAT bad?

    I am very happy with my MA2 upgrade from the Mini. I felt it was well worth the money and since I have only ever used the Fly app I have no issues running it. I love the power, responsiveness and the wind resistance of the MA2, especially when compared to the Mini. I found with the mini I would...

    *Serious caution regarding battery insertion*

    Thanks for the heads up on this, I hadn’t realized it at first but as soon as I took a closer look it was very apparent. I’ve switched to the careful method of seating the batteries now.

    Lanyard mount for Air 2 Controller

    Miss Chrisy Co, got my mount yesterday just in time for me to go out flying. Excellent fit and excellent balance. Made it much easier when I was swapping batteries on the drone, didn’t have to put the controller down in the grass. Thanks for making a great product.

    Mavic Mini vs Mavic Air 2

    My 2 cents, I currently own both. I started with the Mini and got hooked on drones. My biggest complaint with the Mini is the limitations in the wind. I was also very cautious about flying it in the wind after hearing all of the stories about blow-aways. Once the Air 2 released I jumped on...
