    Flying out of line of sight

    I personally feel the most comfortable flying out of LOS when I'm using Waypoints in Litchi and I know the terrain well enough so that I can set the altitude appropriately. That's really what made me brave enough to send it out of LOS regularly. Even if I lose connection to the remote it just...

    Litchi - no video feed.

    This has happened to me twice as well. This morning when I booted up Litchi I had no video feed. I reset the Mavic but still had no feed. Without turning off the Mavic again I force closed Litchi on my phone and reopened. Video feed came up without a problem. I have yet to actually try this...

    Litchi

    Being able to plan out and set Waypoints in my office before I go outside is AMAZING. I understand the anxiety though.

    First Flight

    If you're looking for something relatively inexpensive and easy to move around to act as a landing pad I suggest using one of those foam rubber floor tiles. I painted the smooth side with a big X and it basically goes everywhere that my drone and I go. The one I use is about 24 x 24 so not too...

    I need to reduce stick sensitivity

    As said just above, the gain was set to 100 by default. I changed my Yaw to 80 based on a video I saw but I still have some experimenting to do. I'm not 100% happy with the speed at which I'm turning quite yet. I'm going to really mess with my Yaw in the next day or two and try to tweak it...

    Advice For Older Editing Software

    I got my Mavic today and I'm struggling to find the best export options that don't degrade the quality of the final product. I'm using Final Cut Express (I know, stone age) but it's the best I've got at the moment. Does anyone have any suggestions for export settings that will not degrade the...

    **** it!!

    I watched a video of a guy that crashed his Mavic into a river. It was submerged for about half an hour before he found it. He put it in a trash bag and covered it with rice and let it sit for three days. After that it ran like a champ. Hopefully you're back up and running again soon.

    (Sorry) Just enthusiastic.

    Today was my first day flying and I had the same experience. I will make one recommendation although there may be better advice given that I'm new. I started in beginner mode and just moved around really slowly at first. When I was absolutely convinced that it wasn't going to fall out of the...
