    2nd Maric (used) not functioning

    An answer to an earlier question, the gimbal seems to be working normally. it does it's normal calibration upon startup, and when I tilt the Drone the gimbal motor seems to operate normally to compensate.

    2nd Maric (used) not functioning

    I have some more information. I went to try and connect via Wi-Fi only to discover that the QR code both on the wing as well as under the battery compartment is missing. There's also no device serial number. My theory is that this is an unregistered Drone. Probably brought over illegally by the...

    No, just through the Go App. In your experience does it work better with DJI Assistant?

    Grand Canyon

    2nd Maric (used) not functioning

    I may have gotten myself scammed. So, I lost (in a very stupid rookie accident) my first Mavic back in July while setting up to film the Lake Forest 4th of July parade. Bought one off of Craigslist for $550. Thing looks like it's never been flown, included 3 batteries and a charger. Sync'd it...

    San Diego Harbor CV 41 Midway - Plus Sunset at La Jolla

    The tower is solidly in the NFZ, or else I'd love to :) Glad you liked the video. Thank you for your service. Happy Memorial Day.

    Sorry for not responding to this sooner, I don't go to this app very often. I live in Aliso Viejo and would be happy to meet up. Dana Point Harbor is a fantastic shooting location and I have a great lsynch spot. Text me (714) 310-0686, and we will work on details.

    Thank you. I did the Kodak tower shot manually. I've been spending a lot of time lately practicing how to do manual point-of-interest shots. There are times when I rely on the auto point-of-interest capability of the Mavic, but not this time :) Thank you for the compliment on the waterfall...
