    Do not keep and Batteries in the Mini or charging Hub

    No, this is LiPo specific, and does not impact our Lithium Ion powered Mavic Mini 1.

    AMAZING !!

    WOW! After watching the telecast of the Sydney fireworks display, all I could think was quite impressive but what a huge waste of money, not to mention the excessive noise/air pollution, and impact on the local wildlife. This drone use is a pretty amazing display of technology, and a far...

    Chinese drones are spying on Americans

    BTW - If the Chinese were to watch my drone videos, all they would get is motion sickness.

    Chinese drones are spying on Americans

    I imagine being UK based you have greater concerns than DJIs entity list status, but even down here in AU, where China is regularly rattling the sabre, the US DJI action seems perplexing. China has not been keeping a low profile recently, with continually escalating AU import tarrifs, belt and...

    High profile drone crash in Berlin, Germany

    No, you are not alone at all. IMO if they are locals, they should be aware of local law and abide by it - or bear the consequences. If they were tourists, they should be checking local laws in the places they are visiting before taking any footage, whether with a camera or a drone. There...

    Looking for a new Laptop computer

    This is great advice, and often neglected. I suggest anybody serious about retaining, securing, or serving up their data purchases a NAS, there are many cost effective off the shelf units out there now, or if you have an old desktop with RAID capability you could run freenas or similar on it...

    Mavic mini A71/Z Flip Android phone compatibility

    Thanks for the feedback, Z Flip compatibility can remain a mystery! I did consider it, though steered away from the FE, with my choice between the Z Flip and the A71 - both 6.7" screens. I purchased an A71 as of this week, can do without the potential Flip screen cracking.. Couldn't be...

    Who has experience with a Samsung Galaxy A70 ( ore A50) and Mavic Mini / DJI Fly App???

    Thats great! The A71 is the first phone I have purchased in almost 9 years, I have always used business handsets. The A71 ticks all the boxes for the Mavic Mini, good screen size, decent battery life etc. I will be printing off the thingiverse A71 bracket and sunshade when I get my printer...

    Who has experience with a Samsung Galaxy A70 ( ore A50) and Mavic Mini / DJI Fly App???

    Good to hear! Due to the zero response on the Z flip compatibility in another thread, and no information anywhere online about that phone, I went with an A71. I have just finished setting my new A71 up with the FlyApp etc, and expect to be able to test it with the MM during the coming week, so...

    Mavic mini A71/Z Flip Android phone compatibility

    Hi All, I'm in the process of picking a new mobile phone, my ancient J5 is unable to run the DJI Fly app - even though running v6.0.1 Android. I have the Samsung A71 and Z Flip on my short list, though whichever one chosen needs to be compatible with the Mavic Mini. I know DJI has their...
