    I was arrested for flying a drone *updated with video*

    What is it that "does not trigger" them any longer? Clearly that cop had his mind made up when he arrived! Yes, thay have a job to do but they are not authorized to take away your lawful rights as a citizen in the process. Sometimes it is attitudes like yours that promote police to think they...

    Is the Mavic Air good enough?

    Its noisy! Who wants a drone that is noticably louder than the average device?

    Why you shouldn't buy a Mavic 2 or any drone that relies on your phone.

    Respectfully: nearly all that you state as negative is really incorrect. You should contact someone on this forum by phone so they can inform you in a polite way.

    I swallowed my pride and got an iPad.

    Yes; Apple does own interest in DJI and the DJI Drones software and build is more compariable to an Apple product and works better with them. In the end, you did exactly what Apple expected you to do, which is why they own interest in the DJI projects.

    Mavic 2 Pro, or Phantom 4 Pro for a photographer?

    Believe me; in my opinion your question is very easy to answer. I have owned the P4: and the P4P. I currently own the original mavic pro and the M2P. I sold each of the P4 versions soon after I purchased the original mavic pro and my decision was not only about portability. First of all...

    360 Spherical Pano's (Solved!)

    Thanks for following through on your learning curve. I was also having a similar problem with importing to Photo Director and you resolved my dilema. This is a copy of what you assisted me with. I recently completed the Seagull 103 miler and in Photo Director you can compose images such as...

    Upgrade from MP to MP2? My thoughts.

    Well; I too like my current mavic pro but like most owners of mavic pro we always stated that the only flaw was the camera and gimbal. Many wished for a better camera and gimbal and DJI has delivered. To me; that is the end of story! Mavic Pro 2 with 1 inch sensor will be here Wednesday.

    Shipped Orders

    Mine shipped last night; and is to be delivered on Wednesday. Hopefully you did not order extra batteries or props on the same order or it will lengthen the shipping time. I ordered extra battery and prop on a separate order.

    Mavic air honest photographer's review and why I am getting rid of it

    That about nails it about the air. I have had all of the 3: P4; mavic pro and mavic air. The air is more toyish than drone but it is a fairly good toy, Fly the air behind a freaking treeline and there goes your signal-just like my first toy drone, Get a little wind and freaky deaky-just like...

    Got in panic with police and lost Mavic. Critical battery vs RTH?

    That is a bit much and quite a stretch! In that case , a motorist can be distracted by anything. Talk about overblown!!!

    Distance of my Mavic Pro

    LOL! Just the opposite for me. The range on my mavic freaks me out! I get well over 2 miles and the signal remains strong. I only turn around when I start to freak out. I really think it is actually capable of what they say it is.

    Does you iPhone screen dim while runnin DJI app?

    You might have found the solution by now but Apple placed the auto-darken feature as default, so you have to dive deeper into the settings and disable it. Go to General; Accessibility; Display Accommodations and set it to "off"

    DJI Mavic Pro Platinum (Just Released)

    Is this confirmed by DJI that the 1080p 60fps will now work? That limitation causes me lots of extra editing in comparison to my P4 that shoots just fine in 1080p. Can you direct me to the link for this discussion?

    hover not steady at night in GPS mode

    I have the same problem with the mavic but my P4 is rock solid at night and does not drift much at all. Makes me wonder! The mavic is all over the place, as if the GPS is faulty but in day time it does fine. I guess it is just one of those things!
