I was flying my Mavic Air today for the first time. It was about 400 ft away and I got the "Aircraft Disconnected" message. After a few minutes it initiated a return to home, flew up to 400 ft (I need to lower this), flew back and then came down to within 10 ft of the ground. While it was...

Thank you. That is exactly what I needed. I also have a GPS app on my phone so it would make it trivial to find.

I was off the grid so no map data. It also just seemed to show where the home point was so didn't change as I walked closer. May need to go experiment this afternoon.

I crashed my drone earlier this week and went to find it. I thought I could just use the distance on the app to help locate it. But as I walked towards the crash the distance never changed. I guessed that it was the distance from the home point and not the controller so I changed the home point...

If you have DJI Care do you have to upgrade to maintain coverage? Is not upgrading a reason for them to deny repair.

Hoodman makes a nice hood for a phone or tablet. They have stretchy fabric at the bottom that allows you to reach your hand in. Products in Phone Hoods - www.hoodmanusa.com

My CNC router and laser engraver are probably my most fun toys. The Mavic is next.

Thanks. I was having similar issues and will give this a try. I was also getting tired of all the notifications that kept popping up and had thought about turning them off. Airplane mode is much simpler.

"Print Screen" is going to give you crappy resolution. If you are shooting in 4K video you can get decent still frames but you need to use a video editor to grab them. As for me, I pause the video and take the photo, then restart the video. I don't want 28 mins of video anyway. 1-2 mins max for...

The jerkiness was caused because I would be panning and the video would freeze and by the time it unfroze I overshot where it was supposed to end up.

My Mavic arrived today and there was break between storms so I took it out for a test flight in my backyard. It flew great and I just spent time familiarizing myself with the differences between it at my Phantom 3 Pro. The biggest issue I had was jerky video. Happened every few seconds or so...

Here is a DJI video where they show it on while flying (around 1:14)

I was wondering the same thing. The map in the link clearly shows the bridge (and areas around it in the water) as being part of the National Recreational Area.

I took my Phantom 3 Pro through the Cancun airport a year ago with no issues.
