    Air 2 and Air 2S batteries compatible?

    Does anyone know if the batteries are compatible between both the Air 2 and Air 2S?

    MA2 now has zoom function!

    Just tried the Zoom feature and in short it was awful, unless you are just using it for inspections.

    Zoom Functionality is a sliding scale!

    Tried it at 4K @ 2X. In short, I will never be using it again.

    "Popular Chinese-Made Drone Is Found to Have Security Weakness"

    Ms. Romand-Latapie acknowledged that the security vulnerability did not amount to a backdoor, or a flaw that allowed hackers into a phone. So a whole lot of nothing to see here.

    MA2 (RC Disconnected) No RTH, Drone gone

    I've definitely read the data, but all I can say is I was watching live on the screen, and while obviously depth perception is limited with a phone, height perception definitely isn't. I'm pretty sure I know the difference of even 20ft vs 100ft. Plus the speed of the supposed decent in 7...

    MA2 (RC Disconnected) No RTH, Drone gone

    Personally I would rather have it be my fault, because now how can I trust getting another Mavic Air 2? But right now with my style of flight, (Precision, and small movements) Never sport mode, I really can't trust getting another one. Thankfully I still have my Anafi, so I can still do Real...

    MA2 (RC Disconnected) No RTH, Drone gone

    At that point where it shows the decent is where I lost connection to the RC. I was literally looking at the screen where the drone was approximately 100ft up and coming back in and the next thing that happened was the RC disconnect. I could see my my location on the screen and then poof...

    MA2 (RC Disconnected) No RTH, Drone gone

    I was at about 93ft, when I lost connection to RC. I was no where close to the ground (water). I let go of the sticks at first waiting for the drone to RTH, but that never happened, so I tried moving it around, and trying to get LOS. Just kept beeping. Been flying for 5 years, and there was...

    MA2 (RC Disconnected) No RTH, Drone gone

    Flying no problem, and not even that far away and suddenly I get RC Disconnect to Drone. Just beeps, no Return to Home. Gone forever. Flight Log Attached.

    Mavic pro forced landing dangerously, DJI avoid responsibility

    1100ft up and 2200ft away and 20% battery? I'm betting you are always on "E" in your vehicle too with a 50 mile trip to get back home and you know how far below "E" the needle can go before your car shuts down.

    Huawei MediaPad M3 Users?

    It's also a 1/2" wider too so you will probably need a mount too, but I'm not positive so you may want to ask someone if it fits without using a mount. Of course if you use a mount then it doesn't matter.

    Almost March 2018 and File Creation Error still...

    Haven't flown in a bit due to winter weather in North East, but did get out today and found the file creation bug still a thing in the latest firmware. Freaks me out, and then forgot to start the recording again and thought I was getting some great footage. First battery was no problem...

    New Platinum Props Tested

    I could definitely tell the difference.

    Bird Strikes Mavic vs Phantom

    This was what I was thinking as the Phantom is much bigger. But it is also white and not sure if that could be a deterrence as well. Although the Inspire isn't white and I'm sure the birds aren't messing with that.

    Bird Strikes Mavic vs Phantom

    Had another bird strike today, nothing that knocked it out of the air, but I can see the birds are more aggressive towards the Mavic. I never had that problem with my P3Pro. I'm wondering if it is because of its smaller size, or even the color of it; or maybe birds are just pissed at drones...
