    do you need a cell phone to fly the avata2

    I have just ordered the Avata 2 Combo. This will be my first FPV so it will be all new with pairing and flying. Am in Australia so we fortunately don’t have these restrictions over here. Seems that US is getting very restrictive. Am flying Air 2 S and Mini 4 Pro.

    Mini 4 Pro over heating

    Will do the same but until then, ice is nice lol If wrapped in a tea towel will reduce any condensation. I fly my drones up rivers and close to waterfalls, probably gets wetter that way.

    Mini 4 Pro over heating

    Only inside, not humid but still warm. Main pack is underneath. For ten minutes won’t hurt the drone. This obviously if no fan available. Mini 4 Pro has no internal fan so overheating and shutting down is a problem.

    Mini 4 Pro over heating

    With the problems updating extensive updates causing premature shutdowns. I have found using ice packs to be great especially if you don’t have a fan.

    Voice Control your drone with this app

    Some people can’t even use two thumbs correctly. So called “Smart Controllers and Computers” are very good at dumbing people down.

    Strange Call from Unknown

    If there is a next time, instead of responding just switch the phone off. Wait several minutes then switch back on.

    New Firmware Update (29-12-2022) - what's new?

    Make sure you are logged in to your account. I updated my Air2 S and it had logged me out, needed to log in again.

    WHY do people call it 'MISSIONS'???

    mission? mis·sion ˈmi-shən. : a specific task with which a person or a group is charged. Try reading a dictionary.lol

    Stuck gimbal error (40002) DJI Mavic 2 air (something is broken)

    I know this may sound silly, but turn drone upside down and turn on. Take props off first. Don’t start up motors but just let the gimbal go through its start up sequence. Sometimes this will dislodge any debris or slight obstruction.

    New Firmware Update (29-12-2022) - what's new?

    There are a number of different opinions re updating. 1) Do I keep all my apps and Drone up to date? 2) Do I need to update, if all is flying well with no problems? 3) Do I wait and see the feedback from those who have updated? Personally I sort of go between all three depending on how I feel...

    My Mavic 3 disappointment

    Don’t have the Mavic 3. Stopped at Air2 S. My take on all this though is Do Not be the first to jump in and buy the latest and “greatest” I never have, even if I could afford to do that I always hang back and wait to see how things pan out.
