You majorly upgraded your portability! Glad to hear you are finding the stills comparable.

Yeah I would think so. I'm only really interested in still image quality.

Upgraded from original Mavic Pro. The M2P is a more refined machine. I don't feel like I'm about to break the gimbal off in my hand when mounting the clip and cover. I like that it does about 31mph in P mode vs about 20mph for the M1P. Connectivity range seems improved. Control while flying...

How is this possible, don't they have the same Sony 1" sensor?

Piasecki Aircraft Corporation >> UAV >> PA-4 2200 pounds, 2 hour flight time!!

QFT and agree completely. Think for yourself. However I'd say dpreview.com forums are more negative.

Nope. My Mavic will never crash unless I decide it's time. I know this because I'm smarter than average. One way I know I'm smarter than average is that I know how to use an apostrophe.

More like 80 feet, but ok. I agree this was user error.

I did exactly this. Nice big cut into the pad of my finger. Bled a lot. Probably could have used a stitch. The very tip of the blade did it to me.

The word is ill-applied to all unmanned aircraft including unmanned military spy/attack aircraft. See dictionary reference above. Whoever first coined this usage was a dunce. That said, it has been accepted by the general public. When I say "I got a drone" everyone knows what I mean. If I...

In a public place like this there is no expectation of privacy, and you are free to photo and video as you wish. I know this because an unknown man showed up at my kid's little league game and started taking pics with a long lens. We called the police and they informed us of the above. All we...

New to the forum and drones in general. Loving my new Mavic!! Here's a little edit of me fooling around down at the beach outside Portland...
