Want to go back to Africa

For the Mavic Pro, at least, I have just run some tests: I connected my phone (Android) to the bottom port and the DJI app started up exactly the same as when the phone was connected to the side port. Everything seemed right. So I then connected my power bank (via USB micro) to the side port and...

Does anyone know how to contact SalvageDrones? I can't seem to find them by doing a web search... Thanks, PGP

Yes, there's a strong 'double vision' problem, esp visible to left of image (in full res version of course). I don't think HDR is practical except on a rigid mount. If you enable DNG (Raw) and process that, on a single image, you can increase dynamic range substantially by adjusting highlights /...

None of the above is necessary. At least in Adobe Camera Raw, the Mavic Pro lens profile is built into the RAW file. Open a Mavic Pro DNG file and in the lens correction sub-window, click on "info". It explains this.

At least in Adobe Camera Raw, there is NO lens correction profile for the Mavic Pro. That is because the profile is built into the RAW file. Open a Mavic Pro DNG file and click on the info button in the lens correction window and it explains this.

This is very good! But why isn't in the manual?!? I spent the first two weeks with "ATTI" and "OPTI" coming up constantly and not having a clue what they meant. There is mention of them in the manual but nothing that describes what they mean, such as the above. I hope DJI pick up on this.

Bad news - I rather wondered whether the USB logic might be looking for the VCC to sense a connection. But what's the concensus - do all Android phones suck power from the RC or are there some that don't? You can easily tell - connect your Android phone to the RC and see if the 'charging'...

Hi Wacker! :) Thank you very much... no, I didn't associate this with the problem of the RC charging the phone - I assumed it was an RC switchable option (perhaps it should be?). There are two USB modes on this phone: MTP and MSC - it was set to MTP, so I switched it to MSC and have checked it...

Hi good folks! I have a Sony Xperia Z3 Compact which works very well.... via the lower (full size) USB port. But.... the RC is trying to charge the phone the whole time, and the RC battery only lasts about 2 hours! Please, is there a way to stop it charging the phone? I have tried using the...
